Good day to you dear readers!
As I prayed what to share with you today, the Lord answered me and said,
“You don’t know the weather against their glass, but I do.” “You don’t know the measure of their window that they have opened to my grace, but I do.” You don’t know the broken glass that they are looking through, but I do.”
“Write to them a message from me, to open their Bibles to learn how to open their window to my Father’s Grace.”
“Teach them to pray in my Holy Spirit, so I can help them open their window to believe in the power of forgiveness; and how to live in the Father’s love for them, by His grace.”
Have you opened your window to let God’s grace flow in? God’s grace flows in front of you –have you believed in John 3:16-17 as your Salvation, authorization, and ability to tap into God’s River of life and life in abundance, by His Grace? You can believe, because God has given you a measure of faith to believe! Will you open your window wide open to God’s Grace?
I believe the Spirit is nudging me to encourage you like this:
What is glass made of? What is glass made of that we can see so clearly through, but when broken or shattered, the view becomes distorted? The crack in the glass can become more of the focus than the clarity through the window. And, no matter how good the view is through the window, it is never the same as an open window experience! Isn’t it like that in our life –if we allow our focus to be more on our failures or the brokenness in our life. Jesus’ bones were broken for ours –He makes us whole; and invites us to open our window to God’s Grace and just live with Him and experience our relationship with Him!
Wow! To experience God’s living Holy Spirit flow through our life is a miracle from Heaven above! The place we long to live eternally with those we love and miss! We can experience Heaven in the spirit now –even before our body dies to get us there forevermore! Jesus gives us rest and restoration …Jesus is the Truth, the Way and the Life …
I hope to encourage you to look in the mirror with fresh eyes to see God’s love for you!
The Lord had me in many Scriptures flowing through my open window today, but the one the Spirit is guiding me to share with you is this:
Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the LORD of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.
Malachi 3:10 (ESV); see also Luke 12:13-21
Dear Friends in Christ, we have a portion to share! Whether possessions, knowledge, time or care –We need to know and understand the love that God has for us to abide in Jesus; first for our soul, but also in our purpose that is set and bonded in Christ to do His work on earth as it is in Heaven.
What feels and looks little to us (faith even the size of a mustard seed) –God can and will grow our portion to magnitudes beyond our imagination! Think of the 2 fishes and 5 loaves of bread! If we will each (united together) believe and do not doubt in our heart (which is our spirit) our ability in Jesus Name to share our portion, God will reveal His Son’s worth to this world. In Christ, we can do the work of HIS Church! If you, or me, doubt our ability in Christ, then isn’t that self-righteous? Yet, if you believe in your worth in Christ to God, the righteousness in you is from God; and God will magnify your work to make it grow for the good of the Kingdom of God.
God loves you! You are immensely and incredibly valuable to God! The enemy, who is Satan is a liar -Anything that does not agree with the Word of God is a lie. Anything that is contrary to the Word of God is a Mountain that we are authorized in Christ to remove and overcome. We need to be focused as a Church on the Truth, which is Jesus. I believe God has a message for you and for me in the Bible every day! Will you open your window to God’s Grace? Jesus did more for us than simply tell us the truth! Jesus revealed to us the true character and will of God! Jesus is the Truth, the Way and the Life!
Love Comes from God
1John 4:15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 16We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. 17By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.…
‘Blessed to be a blessing’, because God has SO loved the world! And, because Jesus has given us his compassion! I hope the Lord shines His light through me that you can see Him; and know God has SO loved you. And even more, I pray this encourages you to tell your story of Jesus in your life to impact the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ, because the world is in need of hope and hope is only found by believing in God’s love to open by faith the window to God’s Grace.
Memory Verse: Ephesians 2:8 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God.”
“He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he (Deuteronomy 32:4).”
I hope this is a blessing to you to know you are invited! Greet a family member today –you will know they are in Christ through their eyes and their smile! Watch them light up when you notice they are your brother or sister in Christ! You can also notice someone who is seeking to know they have hope … The Holy Spirit is your help and shield. …and take… the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, Click link to learn more about The Whole Armor of God.
