God's Words of Wisdom from the Bible for Sunday 18 September 2011

"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for 18 September 2011.

Today's Bible Verse: 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 " Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we might be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God."

In verse 3 "blessed" expresses adoration and praise.  Paul called God the God and father of Christ.  Even though Jesus is God, as the incarnate Son, He was dependant on God the Father.  Thus God the father was His God.

Comfort here in these verses means, "exhortation" "encouragement", "cheer."  Paul used this word, ten times in verses 3-7.   When we as believers meet we are to encourage each other in the faith.

In verse 4 tribulation means "distress" or "affliction".  God comforts us not only to make us comfortable but also to make us comforters.  The comfort the God gives to us becomes a gift we can give to others.  Our willingness to share it reflects the sincerity of our faith.

Today's Hymn: "When We All Get to Heaven"

Sing the wondrous love of Jesus, Sing His mercy and,  His grace
In the mansions bright and blessed, He'll prepare for us a place
When we all get to heaven, What a day of rejoicing that will be
When we all see Jesus, We'll sing and shout the victotry

Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, how thankful we are as Christians to know that with Your comfort we do have, encouragement and cheer in our daily walk with Thee.  May we as Christians reach out to the lost of this world to share the gift of comfort that we have with you so it reflects the sincerity of our faith to You.
                                                                                                               Amen

Today's Biblical Truth"Answers to prayers should always receive public praise for our Deliverer, deserves our adoration."

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".

Yours In Christ,
Cindi
