God Claims His Son

“And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased”.
– Matt. 3:17

God claimed his Son for three reasons:

1. To acknowledge that the plan for salvation was operative

2. To give to Jesus confirmation of his divine-human nature

3. To highlight the right relationship between father and Son.

God blesses me every day,

God blesses me every day,

By the love he sends to me.

He's put friends in my life,

And I have a loving family.

The Poor in Spirit

“Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” – Matt. 5:3

1. Those who are poor in spirit know that they have not achieved moral excellence

2. Those who are poor in spirit recognize their need for salvation

3. Those who are poor in spirit cast themselves upon God’s compassion.

Maturity    

Many people want spiritual maturity but few want the ashes and sackcloth.

Modern Church    

The only time you can really say that 'Christ is all I need,' is when Christ is all you have.

Habakkuk 2:14

For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

Thoughts on This Verse....

What a glorious day when this promise is fully realized! Let's make every effort and commit ourselves to the task of making our glorious God known to every nation, tribe, language, and people.
