Bible Verse and Hymn for Sunday 23 January 2011

"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Bible Verse is: Romans 5: 1-2

"Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have access by faith in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God."

The peace we have with God, as mentioned in verse 1, is the state of being at peace, instead of at war.  The hostility between God (when we were in sin) and the believer has ended, because the believer, is now reconciled to God.  

We as believers, now have access into God's throne room.  Even though we were once sinners, we will not have to face His judgment, because of our acceptance of His Son Jesus Christ into our lives.   We have been granted admission, to stand before Almighty God.  We as believers, can approach God, in the realm of grace, and can boast in the expectation of the glory of God.  We can be confident, because God Himself, has placed the Holy Spirit in our hearts.  WOW!!!!  Praise God for his undying Love, and His Grace that has saved us, from the death penalty that we deserved.

Heavenly Father, How wonderful, and how marvelous is your grace, which we receive, when we accept your Son Jesus Christ into our lives.  How we thank you, for the privilege and honor to approach your throne boldly, because we are your children, and you are eager to listen to us.  What a wonderful and loving God we serve, and may we always have the faith and confidence, to come before you in admiration and praise. 
                                                                                                             Amen


I was sinking deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore
Very deeply stained within, sinking to raise no more;
But the master of the sea, heard my despairing cry
From the waters lifted me, now safe am I
Love lifted me, Love lifted me
When nothing else could help, Love Lifted Me

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day and May God's Never Ending,  and Never Changing, Love and Grace be with you.

Yours In Christ
Cindi
