VOL 1 WEEK 3 –MONDAY

Welcome to Hiding The Word In Our Hearts. A morning scripture writing devotion. The scripture for today is JEREMIAH 29:11. The subject this week is HOPE. We write the scripture in the heart labeled Monday, if you have the book or in a notebook. Writing the verse will help you to remember it.

JER 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

As children of God our Hope is in God and his plans for us. Our hope cannot be about an effortless life. We cannot hope for fame and fortune. Our hope has to be on the plans of our Lord. The future we hope for can only be about the outcome that God plans for us. His plan is the best one. He knows all about us and what we can and cannot handle. His plan is the best plan.

When we are faced with decisions or problems, we often do not have all the pieces to the puzzle.  However, we know someone who not only has all the puzzle pieces, but he has the picture on the box.  He knows what our life needs to look like, in order to complete the picture of who He wants us to be.  If we rely on Him, He will put the puzzle together, in His time.  It is a peaceful thing to know there is a God in heaven, who cares about us, our lives and our hopes.

VOL 1, WK2 TUESDAY -ROMANS 5:1

Good Morning my God Focus friends.  Today is Tuesday, Week Two of Hiding The Word In Our Hearts.  Week Two is all about Faith.  Our verse this morning is Romans 5:1.

5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

Verse two goes on to say,

2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

Justification means that God declares that we are righteous, not because of who we are or what we can do, but because of Jesus Christ and his work on the cross. We have to have faith in God to take away those sins. That faith in the blood of Jesus gives us peace that goes beyond our understanding.

Thanks for watching

Until next time,

Be bold, be brave and keep your God Focus

WK1 VOL2 MONDAY — FAITH

VOL 1 WEEK 2 –MONDAY

Good Morning my God Focus friends.  Today is Monday, Week Two of Hiding The Word In Our Hearts.  Week Two is all about Faith.  Our verse this morning is Genesis 15:6.  6 And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness.

Gen 15:5-8 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be. 7 And he said unto him, I am the Lord that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it. 8 And he said, Lord God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?

Abraham believed God. That statement of faith should be said about all of us. It doesn’t matter what we are facing, we need to believe God. His word is full of his promises. If we have faith we will believe God.

Abraham believed that God would give him many descendants from Isaac. So he boldly climbed the mountain to sacrifice Isaac. He spoke in faith to their servants. Stay here while the lad and I go and worship. We will return.

Did he not understand what God was asking? He understood fully, yet he said the Lord will provide the sacrifice. When the time came, God sent them a ram caught in a thicket by its horns.

God honors those who show that they believe in him. Those who walk by faith. Those who against all odds and against how things appear, simply believe God. Keep the faith, God’s children win.

Thanks for watching

Until next time,

Be bold, be brave and keep your God Focus

VOL1 WK2 FAITH

https://rumble.com/v6xqb5q-vol-1-wk2-faith-hiding-his-word-in-our-hearts.html

God Focus This Morning will return in a few days. I am going to continue these videos for a short while also.  I would love your feedback about them and the other videos.  Please send all comments to angela@godfocus.net

The scripture for today is Luke 17:6.  The subject this week is Faith. Faith is having complete confidence in God and is promises. To trust that he will answer our prayers. It is seeing the outcome we are praying for even when things appear a different way. 

Luke 17:6  And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.

Some versions of the bible says if you have faith the size of a mustard seed. It is not in the size of the seed but the purity. People will say it only takes a little faith. But actually, it takes pure faith. Mustard seed is pure; it will not mix with any other herb. In that regard we cannot have faith like a mustard seed if we mix it with doubt and unbelief.  

Thanks for watching

Until next time,

Be bold, be brave and keep your God Focus

HIDING THE WORD IN OUR HEARTS

The reason there has not been any God Focus This Morning Videos is that my computer crashed. I have ordered a new one. I should have it soon. I will start posting videos as soon as possible. Until then I want to share with you something that has helped my faith walk; scripture writing or scribing. I started a journey of scribing or copying the entire bible.

I created a scripture writing journal called Hiding The Word In Our Hearts. Each morning, I will be uploading a video to encourage you until I can get my computer up and running.

Below is the link to the Intro and the upload for Monday.

WELCOME TO GOD FOCUS THIS MORNING

The title of today’s episode: THERE ARE NO WORDS

People sometimes use the phrase, There are no words, when they are surprised or in shock. Events unfold in ways that are beyond our imagination and we cannot find words.

Five days a week, I come to you with words of encouragement. There is so much in the Word of God to discuss and share. But there are times when there are no words. God, at times, touches us on a level that goes beyond words. When all we can do is sit quietly in his presence or softly cry in worship. In those times, there were no words.

How do we tell someone how good God is? There are no words to describe that place in his presence. Surrounded by his peace and love. He is more powerful than powerful. He is more loving and compassionate than we can fathom. His vastness is beyond measure.   

Isaiah 40:12 Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?

It is hard to imagine being able to hold heaven in the span of your hand. God is amazing. He could do anything, but he chose to make us and be our provider, protector and friend.

There are no words for what he endured on the cross of Calvary.  If you really think about it, it is hard to comprehend what he endured. The modern-day church has watered down the description of what he suffered. They feel it is too gruesome to mention that he was beaten beyond recognition. They display pictures of his perfect, almost porcelain skin with only small trickles of blood from the spikes in his feet and hands. There are even smaller dots of blood around the crown of thorns. They are afraid to preach the truth of how he shed his blood. He was beaten beyond recognition.

Heb 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

The word remission means to cancel a debt. Jesus cancelled our sin debt with is own blood. I think about how he suffered for me and there are no words. It is unimaginable how someone could make a choice to be brutalized in this way, just to save mankind. There are no words for the amazing strength it took for him to not cry out for his father to send angels to stop it.

His love is beyond measure, beyond comprehension; there are truly no words. Take some time today to reflect on all that God has done for you. I am in awe of how much he loves me. I think if you take the time to ponder what I have said today, you will be in awe, too, of his great and compassionate love for us all.

Until next time,

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
