Faith and Hope in God! – 1 Chronicles 5

Faith and Hope in God! – 1 Chronicles 5          Feb 15, 2013 - 1 Chronicles 5 Return to Admenu Home Dear  Saints, Today we prayerfully Feast in 1 Chronicles 5.  We see hope here where the people have the faith to call on God.  “20 And when they prevailed over them, the Hagrites and all who were with them were given into their hands, for they cried out to God in the battle, and he granted their urgent plea because they trusted in him.”1 Chronicles 5:20, English Standard Version (ESV).  They are in war and they have the hope that God will save them.  That is they have the faith that God will save them.  When I see persons with no hope it is because they do not have faith in God.  “In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1 John 4:10 ESV.  Those that have discovered the love of God have hope.  If there is no faith in God then there is no hope.  Because we have faith in and love for God we keep the first thing first.  That is salvation through the blood of the Lamb.  This faith in God’s love, gives us hope for all things in God..

Posted 2/15/2013 DEVOTIONAL SERIES ON LOVING GOD SCRIPTURE: DEUTERONOMY 6: 5-9 5 Love GOD, your God, with your whole heart: love him with all that’s in you; love him with all you’ve got! 6 Write these commandments that I’ve given you today on your hearts. Get them inside of you 7 and then get them inside your children. Talk about them wherever you are, sitting at home or walking in the street; talk about them from the time you get up in the morning to when you fall into bed at night. 8 Tie them on your hands and foreheads as a reminder; 9 inscribe them on the doorposts of your homes and on your city gates. DEVOTIONAL:                            “LOVING GOD” Let us consider the essential of relationship with God. We are commanded that the foundation is to love the Lord our God. The question is, “How”?? Let us listen carefully to the answer and think about it in the next few minutes. The instruction given includes the answer in verse 5. We are commanded to love Him with our whole heart. Notice there no such thing as part time love of God. Neither is there a stop and go angle in loving God. Certainly there is not a halfway effort. Verse urges to love Him with all that is in us and with all the strength we have. This means one hundred percent action employed in committing our love to Him. As a coach I never asked my team for a little effort to be extended on the contest field but to give every last ounce of effort and to go far beyond the comfort zone. That is what God expects of us. We need to step outside the door of convenience and venture forward in active Love of God. This means absolute faith that God is with us and will keep His promises toward us. Let us realize we are on a mission here and our home is faraway on a golden shore; we are here on a mission for our God and King. The first job we need to attend to is to write these commandments on our hearts and then teach them to our children. Let our conversation be about loving God. Dear Jesus help us to increase our Love for You today. Amen.    God Bless you, Brother Mike http://www.admenu.com http://admenu.wordpress.com Tags: jesus, love, hope, care, god, holy, ghost, save, help Click Here to visit admenu for more information on our services and contacts! “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
