BEFORE TIME BEGAN, GOD HAD GIVEN US PURPOSE AND GRACE IN CHRIST.
The gospel carries life and immortality.
2Timothy 1:8-9
Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me. His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to is own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began.
Beloved, the good news of Jesus Christ carries far more than we realize.
Paul said, "preach the gospel in season and out of season." What should this tell us?
That no matter the season preach the good news in Gods word.
It alone carries the power of God to change a life.
Some people ask what is the gospel?
It is the good news that Jesus Christ took all our sins and paid the full price for them on the cross.
It provided forgiveness, for everlasting life and healing of our soul. No more guilt and shame for the past. All things become new.
Know the great Kingdom of God that you entered, when you receive Jesus as Lord and Savior.
New believers are now open to receive from the Holy Spirit and to understand things they thought they knew.
Philippians 3:16
Nevertheless, to the degree that you have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us be of the same mind.
Beloved, learn to add to what God has already given to you.
As we apply the word of God to our life, we will understand more of this wonderful Kingdom we belong to.
Philippians 3:13-14
Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead.
I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
Before time began (think on this) God's purpose and grace for our life was planned and set in motion in our mothers womb.
God set us in certain families, to show His healing power and His Divine purpose.
His divine purpose is all in Jesus.
Do you realize how special you are to God?
That He allows you to carry His power and word inside of you? He is the word, and He lives inside our heart.
Ephesians 1:3-4
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,
Beloved, know the treasures to be found in this heavenly kingdom we now belong to.
Treasures that belong to our new life. Wisdom from the Holy Spirit to help us grow in our faith in the Lord.
He opens up new things for us to learn and apply to our life.
That wonderful grace is: God's riches at Christs expense. Never take it for granted.
God bless your day
Jesus loves you
