Be Amazed!!

More words of wisdom from our friend, Carol Manzo. Enjoy!


WHAT IS THE BLESSING OF ABRAHAM?

Christ did this (being nailed to a tree) so that the blessing

of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ;

that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

And if ye be Christ's, then are you Abraham's seed,

and heirs according to the promise.

Galatians 3:14 & 29

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO US?

In a nut shell, the promise to Abraham was that God would bless him

everywhere he went. Not only that, but God would bless those who

blessed him and curse those who cursed him. WOW! What a

promise. God blesses those who bless us and those who do not

bless us are under the flip side of the promise. I want to stay on

the blessing end, don't you? And if you belong to Christ, the

verse above verse 28 says as follows.

There is now no distinction neither Jew or Greek,

there is neither slave nor free, there is not male or female;

for you are all one in Christ Jesus. When God looks at us

in Christ Jesus he sees that we have no color, no gender, and no

nationality. There is no distinction in any of us. We are all

kids of the King and heir to live with Him eternally if we so choose.


GOD HAS GIVEN US MANY BLESSINGS.

SEARCH THE WORD AND YOU WILL

BE AMAZED!

Everything We Need To Know....

Here are some words of wisdom from Carol Manzo.

MAY 21

WE HAVE ACCESS TO EVERYTHING

WE NEED TO KNOW

He (the Holy Spirit) will glorify Me,

for He will take of what is Mine

and declare it to you.

All things that the Father has are Mine.

Therefore I said that He will take of Mine

and declare it to you.

John 16:13-15

OUR GO BETWEEN IS THE HOLY SPIRIT

The Holy Spirit has many names throughout the Bible.

The Godhead is God the Father; Jesus the son;

and the Spirit of Truth, the Holy Spirit.

In this scripture He is the Spirit of Truth.

Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to teach us all that we need

to know about God the Father and Jesus the Son.

The Holy Spirit never draws attention to Himself.

He always seeks to bring glory to Jesus.

How wonderful that the Holy Spirit is always with us,

wanting to teach us more about God and the deeper

things of God and always glorifying Jesus.

Jesus wants us to know what His plan for the day

is for us. Before we start our busy day, it is a good thing

to always consult God about His plans for our day.

We could avoid being at the wrong place at the wrong time

and doing things that were unnecessary. Time would not be

such a critical issue if we just did what God wanted us to do

for the day. And stress would be non-existent. God never stresses

us out or frustrates us. HE NEVER WEARS US OUT.

When I am stressed out at the end of the day, I reconnoiter the events

of the day to see where I got off of God's track and on to my own.

GOD, PLEASE HELP US TO DO YOUR WORKS

AND LEAVE OUR STRESS BEHIND
