SCRIPTURE: I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed I will make them...

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 ESV Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will...

“Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called; and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified”—Romans 8:30 “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that...

I love how Jesus can make you feel completely special, chosen and beloved, like you are the only one He is looking at, and at the same time remind you of how He loves each and every one of us with that same complete love that only He can give. :heart: I am feeling so deeply loved through what...

The Lord Jesus led me to read 1 Chronicles 16 (Select vv. NASB). Oh give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples. Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; Speak of all His wonders. Glory in His holy name; Let the heart of those who seek the Lord be glad. Seek the...
