we will bow

image

Romans 14:11 KJV

For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

What an honor it will be to bow before the King of Kings. The Author and Finisher of our faith. Our Creator….our God!

upon which stone are you built

Acts 4:11-12 NIV

Jesus is
“‘the stone you builders rejected,
which has become the cornerstone.’ Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”

I ask a simple question today…
Upon which stone are you built?

love without fear

pour out

The woman broke her jar and poured out all of her perfume. She lavishly wasted everything that was of value to her. Breaking her jar effectively eliminated any chance of keeping any for her own use, then or later. She gave everything she had-past, present, and future-to Him. Jesus said that people would remember her remarkable love forever.

Then at the last supper, those same words appeared again. He broke His body and poured out His blood for us. He was beckoning us to do what He did: be broken and poured out. Go all in. Hold nothing in reserve. Completely relinquish control. That’s what truly commemorate what Jesus did. Not cherishing a ritual, but being a memorial.

I ask you, are you giving Him all you have today our just saving Him for a certain occasion or problem. God doesn’t want you to just come when you have problems, He wants you to come to Him everyday. Just like the woman who anointed Jesus’s feet, we can touch Him. Pour out your life to Him and surrender all! That’s why Jesus died. He came to pour out His life for us .

What should “broken and poured out” look like in your life?

…are you washed?

Acts 2:38 KJV

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

I love this verse. Peter was such a rock for the Lord. Could you imagine the day of Pentecost? What a celebration to see! He was right when he said this. If we just come to the Lord, ask for forgiveness and be washed by the blood of Jesus, then we receive the Holy Ghost.

The Holy Ghost is our guide, comforter, a teacher. If we let it, our will guide our footsteps and help us to lead our lives for God! The Holy Ghost will transform your very soul and spirit if you allow!

So as the song that I grew up with goes, what can wash away my sins…nothing but the blood of Jesus!

do you smell sweet?

Ephesians 5:1~2

Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Let us put on love today. Let us walk and act as Christ did. Let us offer ourselves to God and sacrifice our flesh to become more like Christ.  Let the love of God overfill you each and every day. Our sacrifices becomes a sweet smell to our Lord.

So I ask you….do you smell sweet?

I hope and pray you all had a wonderful Christ Resurrection Day. I took the week off from posting to humble myself and become closer to God. I wanted to get as close to the Lord as I could during remembering what Jesus went through that week! Praise God! For Jesus is Alive!

Have a Blessed Day,
Amanda

Palm Sunday

John 12:13 NIV

They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting,
“Hosanna!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
“Blessed is the king of Israel!”

The whole story if you want to follow along starts in John 12: 12~19.

This week starts a holy week. Today its Palm Sunday, the Sunday before Easter. This is the last week of Christ’s life on Earth. From passover to crucifixion, He went through all of this so we could have eternal life with Him…What a time to celebrate!

This week, let’s stop and take the time to celebrate what Easter is all about. It isn’t about eggs or a bunny. It’s about how our Savoir conquered death, hell, and the grave. How He died on a cross and bore out sins, and rose on the 3rd day! Hallelujah! Praise The Lord!

Blessings to you all!
Amanda

He knows you…

O Lord,
You have searched me and known me.
You know my sitting down and my rising up;
You understand my thoughts afar off.
How precious also are Your thoughts to me,O God!
How great is the sum of them!
If I should count them they would be more in number than the sand;
When I awake, I am still with You.
Psalm 139:1~2,17~18

I’m in a praising mood today. With it being close to Easter, I can’t help but think of all that Jesus endured and just how much He loved us.

I’ve drifted away and let my thoughts just center on the absolute love of God and just to know His thoughts toward us are more than grains of sand. We are so important that He understands our thoughts and knows the exact moment we rise and sleep.

I’ve looked all my life for a love like this and to of found it, is more than I can say!

Be swept away today by God…let it be just you and Him today!
