Appreciating God

We must be thankful for all that God has done for us, and all that God is. 1 Chronicles 16 - Give glory to His name! David shows his appreciation in Psalms 27 - he was a great testament to showing the Lord thanks for all He has done.

We should always be quick to brag on God. Be quick to give him the glory for the blessings He has given you. Show what He has done for you so that others will desire Him as well. You are a living testimony to God's enduring love and grace - the best way to show appreciation is to share those blessings with others.

Be thankful for Jesus! 2 Corinthians 9:15 There aren't words fit to describe the sacrifice that God gave when he sent Jesus to die for our sins. Psalms 119:89,97,105,128,133,165 - cry thanks out to God, let your appreciation show for the world to see!

Know the truth and it shall set you free! John 8 / Romans 10:17. Faith comes by hearing, and sometimes it is you that the lost will hear. You must be the voice of the Word of God!

John 16:7 - Get to know the comforter well, receive Him as He has been promised to you. Enjoy the peace that He can bring to your life.

Your salvation is eternal - God seals us and keeps us once we have believed. Ephesians 1:12-13. In spite of our sin, rebellion and disobedience we are still saved. Be thankful that you don't have to worry about your salvation, about where you will spend eternity. You no longer need to fear Hell because as a believer you are promised Heaven and God is faithful to all His promises! As a believer you are saved for all eternity - and no one can take that gift from you.

Romans 8:1-2 / 1 John 5:10 - It is black and white. Once you have received the Son you have eternal life. 1 John 5:13 was written for believers so that there is no doubt that salvation is eternal. 1 Chronicles 16:8 - We are to call upon Him, trust in Him. Live on the edge and you fall off - so make sure you walk fully in the light of the Lord following His way.

Having a close walk with God is important to our happiness here on Earth as well as in achieving our rewards in Heaven. Failure is not an option and God NEVER fails. Nothing is impossible with his help, but you must trust fully that He is capable of helping you. Romans 6:14-18 / Acts 2:41-47
