Welcome to week two girls! Knowing God has Redeemed Us!
Leaping from duty to delight requires understanding; not only has God chosen us, but He has redeemed us. Building scripture for this week: I am Redeemed. "We have redemption in Him through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding." Ephesians 1:7-8
In John 6 we read that Jesus called Himself the 'Bread of Life'.
Meeting Spiritual needs as well as Physical.
Quotes: Think- it's time
it's time to allow Jesus to enter your life:
it's time we quit trying so hard.
it's time we relent of questioning God's motives.
it's time we identify with Jesus' sacrifices for us.
it's time we fully believe in Jesus' forgiveness.
it's time we renounce trying to surrender and just do it.
it's time we put an end to resisting God an begin resting in Him.
it's time we dump what we're not and reach for who God is.
it's time we plant our feet firmly on God's promises.
it's time you and I delight in God.
Maybe it's time we type this out and tape it to our mirrors to remind us:
it's time!
God has chosen us.
God has covered us with His blood and body.
God has lavished us with His acceptance.
God uses these three facts to break us free from cycles of guilt-driven performances.
He is not looking for perfection....Jesus has already been perfect for us.
Because of Jesus, we are covered in the grace of God forevermore. We can relax in His presence, enjoying acceptance, satisfaction, and ultimately delight. I pray this study is stepping you up further and to final delight with God.
