Our Gifts To God

What do you give to someone who literally has everything they will ever want or need?

When I think about how much the Lord has given me, I cry out with amazement, my heart sings with gratitude, and my mind dreams up visions of happiness in His presence. No one can love me like my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and no one will ever try. Why? Because when Jesus loves you, He loves you with all of His heart and mind, with a burning passion - think that statement is over the top? If you ever have the honor to feel the presence of the Holy Spirit in your heart, overflowing into your body and your mind, the type of joy and peace that surrounds you is wonderful and awesome. He is an awesome God!

If you are a believer and you have never felt that level of His presence before today, trust me you can, it is very easy. Ask Him to fill your heart with His spirit and be sincere when you ask,..“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened..."(Matthew chapter 7:7-8)....and He will supply. He is eager for you to get to know Him.

We know how much He loves us, He demonstrated the depth of that love on the cross, so you might wonder what the Lord could possibly want from us. After all, He is GOD, and He has everything in His hands, there is nothing that God does not know, He is all powerful, all knowing, there are no surprises for Him ever! So, you might ask what does He get for all of His efforts on our behalf.

FAITH......

OBEDIENCE.........

TRUST........................

LOVE......................................

Faith. We must have faith in Him and in His love for us. Without faith it is impossible to please him (Hebrews 11:6). Belief in a person or concept is a beautiful and powerful thing. When enough people believe in something or someone, it becomes an unstoppable force either for good or evil. Nothing ever starts to become something without FAITH.

Obedience. Once you believe in Him, your first step of faith is to obey Him, obey the promptings of the Holy Spirit, give praise to His name, and make your first move in whatever direction the Holy Spirit gives you. It could be scary and above your comfort level. The good news is that He is there with you every step of the way, and He already knows that you can do it. This task that He has laid out for you becomes an expression of your faith, and it will make your faith stronger. Be OBEDIENT.

Trust. Once you have taken that first step of faith, you will find that every step afterwards is taken with Him. You will find peace in your heart, and every door open, every opportunity you need to accomplish your goal becomes clear and accessible. You will be amazed at what the Lord can accomplish with just you and a little faith, being obedient to His will. That is when you start to trust Him with your life and with your heart. It is not easy to trust anyone in this world, and heartache is a constant reminder of how flawed this world can be, but if you put your trust in God He will never fail to do just what He has promised you, whatever that promise may be. With Faith, and Obedience, Trust is easy to give to Him. Have TRUST.

Love. Now, you chose you to believe in Him, which ushered in Faith, you took a step of Faith into Obedience, you found out that you could Trust Him, and when you found out you could Trust Him, you found that you Loved Him with all of your heart and all of your soul! Love springs in abundance from your spirit, into your heart, and into your mind. You are filled with joy and peace, and you cannot understand exactly how, but frankly, you do not care! You give Him praise, you thank His Holy Name, you worship at His altar, and shout declarations of Love in His presence! Now, what can you and I give the one being in the universe who has everything He ever wanted and needed? Give LOVE.

Give Him your heart and mind. Choose to obey Him. Trust Him and Adore Him. Give Him Thanksgivings and praises of Love. Express that Love and kindness to the people in your life. Sacrifice yourself for your loved ones. Give generously from your heart and from your wallet! Trust Him and make that first step into your destiny. FAITH.OBEDIENCE..TRUST...LOVE.....NOW, GO!

If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as your savior, repeat these words:

Prayer of Salvation

Lord,

I repent for trying to be master of my own life. I change my mind about who I want to be in charge of my life. I turn from my useless and unproductive thoughts that I am the center of my universe and choose to believe in the living God who created everything, including me (Acts 14:15). I have lived without a purpose but now I will live to hear and obey You, God (Jn. 5:19, 20,30).

I confess with my lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead. I believe that God so loved the world He sent His only Son Jesus to shed His blood to wash away the barrier of sin (Jn. 3:16)

I receive You, Jesus as MY Lord and Savior (Jn. 1:11,12).

I welcome You, Holy Spirit, into my life to rescue and empower me and to restore me to intimacy with my heavenly Father (Acts 2:38).

If you just confessed this prayer, you are saved! I welcome you into the family my (brother/sister) I pray for peace, joy, and happiness in your life as you allow the Lord to love you and bless you and give you assurance of everlasting life with Him forever and ever......PRAISE GOD!

May the Lord keep you and Bless you this day....AMEN
