The LIVING GOD #CHOICE

“I #choose you” is a phrase we all like to #hear!  Remember grade school when you were the first or last one chosen on a team?   We all make #choices that affect us every day.  Even choices that others make by not including us in their plans bring about change.  Acts 15:7-11 “Peter said,…you know how a good while ago GOD MADE a CHOICE among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.  God who knows the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit, even as HE did unto us; putting no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith….We believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved…even as they.”   GOD CHOOSES YOU —- NOW YOU CHOOSE

All God’s Children Have Wings

      19850915 All God's Children Have Wings - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Have you seen the commercial that says #RedBull gives you #wings?  Well, far from a catchy marketing gimmick, God’s Word says that His children will fly on wings as eagles.  Why did the fellow who found a $5 bill on the ground say that it was the worst thing that could have happened to him?  With wings comes the ability to fly, but how?  How does God’s lessons on flight parallel the way an eagle teaches its young to fly?  What lessons can we learn from the refinement of silver?  What’s wrong with the answer ‘pretty good, under the circumstances’?

The LIVING GOD #SEARCHES

Have you thrown away your #empty Valentine #heart shaped box after #searching, testing, and trying to get the best chocolate in the selection?  The #Bible tells us that God looks, tries, and searches our hearts for the #sweet and the #bitter.  “I, the LORD SEARCH the HEART” Jer.17:10  “Lord looks at the heart”1Sam.16:7  “For the LORD SEARCHES ALL HEARTS, and understands every intent of the thoughts.  If you seek Him, He will let you find Him: but if you forsake Him He will reject you forever.”  1Chron.28:9  “SEARCH ME, O GOD, and KNOW MY HEART;  TRY ME and know my anxious thoughts; see if there be any hurtful way in me, and lead me in the everlasting way.” Ps.139:23

How Do You Spell God

      19830626pm How Do You Spell God - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

…or better yet how do you punctuate #God?  Do you spell God with a question mark?  Are there answers to the who, what, when, where, why, and how of God?  Do you spell Him with quotation marks?  Where do your beliefs about God originate?  Why does Brother Tommy hope that you spell God in italics?

The LIVING GOD #DELIGHTS

I had an uncle who could not pass a mirror without stopping to smile/adjust his hair and admire himself!  In this day and time I can only imagine all the #SELFIES which he would post.  What does the #Bible say about all this self adulation?  Prov. 1:22 “How long, you simple ones will you love simplicity?  scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?”  Prov. 18:2 “A fool has no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself”  Ever heard it said, ‘It’s all about #ME’?  Eccles. 5:4 “the LORD takes no DELIGHT in fools”  Prov. 2:6,10,11 “the LORD gives wisdom; when wisdom enters your heart, and knowledge it is pleasant unto your soul; discretion shall preserve you, understanding shall keep you”  Micah 7:18  “Who is a GOD like Thee, who pardons iniquity and passes over the rebellious act of the remnant of His heritage?  He does not retain His anger forever, because GOD DELIGHTS in UNCHANGING LOVE.”

Melody Of Love

      19840805pm Melody of Love - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Greater #Love has no man than this:  to lay down one’s life for their friends.  John 15:13

Who did that very thing?  Jesus Christ did.  And who sent Him specifically to do just that?  God, the Father did.  What kind of overwhelming love must He have for us to do that?  What does Psalms says about God’s ability and even eagerness to hear us?  What is the step we need to take to be able to say as the Psalmist does that we have been delivered from death?  How about delivery from tears?  How are we meant to respond to this supernatural gift of love?
