May we be unhappy? – Romans 4

May we be unhappy?  – Romans 4 March 11, 2013 - Romans 4 Return to Admenu Home Dear  Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in Romans 4 We are reading God’s Word daily and this builds our faith (see Romans 10:17).  Because of our faith is in Christ Jesus, we know that our righteousness is in Jesus.    “22 That is why his faith was “counted to him as righteousness.” 23 But the words “it was counted to him” were not written for his sake alone, 24 but for ours also. It will be counted to us who believe in him who raised from the dead Jesus our Lord, 25 who was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification.” Romans 4:22-24, English Standard Version (ESV).  Because we have faith that Jesus died on the cross for all of our sin, and raised from the dead, we are justified.  Just as if we had never sinned, that is our justification in Jesus. “Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations,” Deuteronomy 7:9 ESV.  We are commanded to share God’s love with the whole world (see Matthew 28:18-20).  It’s easy to share God’s love because He never changes.  We love, follow and share our awesome God.  Happenstance changes from one moment to the next.  So we may be unhappy when we see the conditions changing in the world around us, but they can never steal our joy.  Our faith, hope, love and joy are in Jesus!  Let your light shine. The following quote is from; Devotionals By Pastor Glen, “LOOK WHAT GOD IS DOING” ”… This is verbal recognition of God’s deliverance. It should be lively and exalt the Glory of God. We are announcing to all we meet that the Master is about to arrive. Share with the cashier at the store that Jesus is coming any time now and you pray that he/she will be ready. This is good news for the believer but a warning for the unbeliever to repent, believe and be saved. You will not believe the joy of witnessing someone’s life changed with whom you shared the love of God. This is pure joy and will be recognized in heaven. Live your life knowing that God is daily working in your life. Wow that is a reason for joy instead of worry. Let your tendency to worry give way to prayer and incredible joy and peace. …” The Feast Mon, March 11, 2013, Romans 4, - “The doctrine of justification by faith is shown by the case of Abraham. (1-12) He received the promise through the righteousness of faith. (13-22) And we are justified in the same way of believing. (23-25)” – Matthew Henry Concise Pastor Glens complete Devotional Series |Click Here| See Destiny by Sandra Lee |Click Here| The Holy Spirit Is Calling by R. L.
