Serve with Love

7 Work with enthusiasm, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Ephesians 6:7 NLT 3 Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. 4 Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.5 You must have the same attitude that

Guard Your Thoughts

The devising of foolishness is sin,And the scoffer is an abomination to men. Proverbs 24:9 NKJV The very thought of wrongdoing is sin. The thought may become an action so we must pray and ask the Lord to guard our hearts. We must put forth the effort to study the word of God and to spend time in His

Nothing Less Than True Worship

11 “What makes you think I want all your sacrifices?”    says the Lord.“I am sick of your burnt offerings of rams    and the fat of fattened cattle.I get no pleasure from the blood    of bulls and lambs and goats.12 When you come to worship me,    who asked you to parade through my courts with all your ceremony?13 Stop bringing me your meaningless gifts;    the

All or Nothing

38 He said to them in His teaching, “Beware of the scribes, who love to go about in long robes and love greetings in the marketplaces, 39 and the prominent seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets, 40 who devour widows’ houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive greater condemnation.” Mark 12:38-40 MEV

Exceed

For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:20 NKJV The scribes and Pharisees were very religious. They knew what they were supposed to do and they did it but often it was a show of sorts

Soften Our Hearts Lord

7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says:“Today, if you will hear His voice,8 Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,In the day of trial in the wilderness,9 Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me,And saw My works forty years.10 Therefore I was angry with that generation,And said, ‘They always go astray in their heart,And they have not known My ways.’11 So

Reflecting Jesus

 3 You show that you are a letter from Christ that he sent through us. This letter is not written with ink but with the Spirit of the living God. It is not written on stone tablets but on human hearts.4 We can say this, because through Christ we feel sure before God. 5 I don’t mean that we are

Communion Time

Taking communion is a very serious time to draw near to God. We honor Him and remember what He has done on the cross for us. It is very important to pray and have much reverence for the Lord before we take communion. We have to examine our hearts and repent of any wrongdoing. 23 For

Heart to Heart

As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man. proverbs 27:19 kjv One corrupt heart is like another; so are sanctified hearts: the former bear the same image of the earthly, the latter the same image of the heavenly. Let us carefully watch our own hearts, comparing them with the word of

Seek, Love and Magnify the Lord

May all those who seek You    rejoice and be glad in You;may those who love Your salvation say continually,    “The Lord is magnified.” Psalm 40:16 MEV And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
