"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for 6 September 2011"
Today's Bible Verse: James 4:5,6 "Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "the Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously"? But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble."
Envy here is God's jealous longing for our love. Our Heavenly Father is truly disturbed when we abandon friendship with Him to make friends with the world and he is disturbed for our sake.
How does God respond to this? Not with punishment, but "more grace" to lead us back into His arms. Only our own pride can keep us from responding to His grace, turning our back on the world, and experiencing His blessings.
Today's Hymn: "Redeemed How I Love To Proclaim It"
Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it! Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
Redeemed through His infinite mercy, His child and forever I am
Redeemed, redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
Redeemed, redeemed His child and forever I am
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, thank you for Your Grace that saves us from our sins and for the cleansing power of the blood of Your Son Jesus Christ which cleanses us from all unrighteousness.
Amen
Today's Biblical Truth: "In prayer, God does not bow to our will; instead we submit to His good will for our lives."

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day. Go in Peace and Serve the Lord our God with Gladness. Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T", God Whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".
"But whoever listens to me will swell safely, and will be secure, without fear of evil." (Proverbs 1:33)
Your Sister in Christ,
