12-8-21 THOUGHTS

Some random verses with the theme of OUR GOD GIVING TO US!   [See Eph 2:4-8]

Ps 84:11   For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly.
John 3:16   "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
Rom 8:32   He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?
1John 4:10  In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Rom 4:25  He who was delivered over because of our transgressions, and was raised because of our justification.
Rom 8:28  And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
Rom 6:23   For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Rom 5:6-10    For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. 7  For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die.  8  But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.   9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.  10  For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

1Cor 2:12  Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God,
1Cor 3:21-23    So then let no one boast in men. For all things belong to you,  22  whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come; all things belong to you,  23  and you belong to Christ; and Christ belongs to God.
Matt 25:34   "Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
1Pet 1:3-5     Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,  4  to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, 5  who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

My Prayer:
You are such a loving and giving and wonderful God.  We praise you and exalt your name to the highest place.  Throughout ages without time, you have been our benefactor. Jesus was from the beginning, the eternal life theme is without end.  Give us faith and hope and trust in all things, at all times, and in all circumstances.  Thank you for adopting us.  

 In Jesus we pray        Amen
