God's Wondrous Love

John 3:16  "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
  
1) The Greatest Lover
2) The Greatest Degree of Love
3) The Greatest Company
4) The Greatest Act
5) The Greatest Gift
6) The Greatest Opportunity
7) The Greatest Simplicity
8) The Greatest Attraction
9) The Greatest Promise
10) The Greatest Difference
11) The Greatest Certainty
12) The Greatest Possession
  
God's wondrous love!  Nothing can describe it.  Nothing can measure it.  Oh, the magnitude of God's love!  God loved us so much that He was willing to give His only Son to this world, that we might through Him believe and be saved.  That is the greatest love!  God was willing to sacrifice all that we might be saved!  God literally turned His back on His Son--He Who took all of our sin upon Him--that He might bring us to God.

"The nail-pierced hands of Jesus reveal the love-filled heart of God."

       Oh, how He loves
            you and me!

Faith Defined

Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Faith is the vehicle whereby we trust God.  Faith believes what God says and acts upon it.  In other words, faith is our transporter!  Without faith, we have nothing.  We must believe God and trust.  And the second part of that verse says our faith is what glorifies God .  Our faith shows to the unbelieving world what God is all about.  Our faith is the evidence of God at work.  Faith is the initiating force.  Faith can be likened to a seed.  Without the seed, nothing grows.  But if that seed germinates or sprouts, and it is watered and fertilized, you'll find it will blossom into something quite beautiful.  Faith is like that.  If we will but believe God and act upon it, then that faith will grow and strengthen and flourish into something beautiful for the Lord. Biblical faith means having trust,...

Patience Waits upon the Lord

Psalm 27:14 "Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord." Isaiah 26:3 "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he trusteth in Thee."   Isaiah 30:15b "In quietness and confidence shall be your strength."        James 1:4-5 "But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.      If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him." __________________________________ What do all of these verses have in common?   They all have an ingredient of waiting upon the Lord or patience .   And why are these such good qualities to have?   Many times in our fleshly natures, we tend to just do what we think is best, or worse, we tend to think we can just do it ourselves.   Those are both very poor responses....

Seven Deadly Devices

7 Deadly Devices of the Devil 2 Cor. 2:11 "Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices." The devil is always prepared to do battle--we need to be doubly prepared.   In any way Satan can defeat you, he will!   If he can make you ineffective as a Christian, he will!   Be on guard…and be prepared! This is taken from my Sunday school lesson just this last Sunday! (as prepared and taught by Rick Laing at Waupun Baptist Church on March 27, 2011).   I cannot take credit for it; but I can tell you the devil has definitely used every single device in my life--and he will in yours as well.   Please stand guard--be prepared in God's power! Diversion - (turning the mind from great things to minimal things, from the eternal to the temporal) Delusion - (lies and wiles) sin is pleasurable--but only for a season.   Satan knows your weaknesses and he will attack more in those areas just because he knows where you're weake...
