God's Words of Wisdom from the Bible for Friday 11 April 2011

"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Bible Verse: 1 Corinthians 1:18,19 : "For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.  For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent."

The word "fool" or "foolish" indicates those who look at reality with distorted perspective, typically because they fail to take God into account.

The message of the cross is the gospel, the Good News about Christ's death and resurrection for our sins.  The gospel penetrates to the core of self centeredness.  For those who exalt self, the message sounds absurd.  But for those who bow humbly in faith, it becomes the power that is able to take us from death and give us eternal life.

We as Christians must hold to the central reality of our faith, Christ, for He is the source of all our righteousness, holiness and redemption.

Today's Hymn: "Christ Liveth In Me" (Verse 2)

As rays of of light from yonder sun, the flowers of earth set free
So life and light and love come forth, from Christ living in me
Oh! What a salvation this, that Christ liveth in me

Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus ad Holy Spirit, thank you that because of the Cross, and because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, we as Believers have been released from the death penalty that we deserve, and have been given Eternal Life through You.
                                                                                                                        Amen

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day.  Go in Peace and Serve the Lord with Gladness.  Love God More today and always remember that wen you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you tell out, "I CAN'T",  God whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".

Your In Christ,
Cindi
