God's Love For You (2022)

“Above all else guard your heart for everything you do flows from it” (Prog 4:23). Scripture distinguishes between the heart and the mind. The mind is where you assimilate information, and the heart is where you store the information ready to be recalled. Your thoughts can be hijacked if you’re not careful. You guard your heart with discretion and understanding that comes from divine wisdom. When you learn the Word of God under the ministry of a well-qualified pastor and comply with it, it’s called divine wisdom. The Word of God is the belt of truth. “Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right… think on these things” (Phil 4:8). Concentrating on these things is how you keep your mind from being hijacked by cosmic distortion, the lies of the world. “Set your minds on the things above, not on earthly things” (Col 3:2). Trust is your faith in action. If you trust God it eliminates fear in your life.Click for Full Transcript https://rhem.pub/highjacked-mind-d80719

To live your amazing new life in Christ you’ve been given a personal coach and guide, God the Holy Spirit, as well as divine resources. “The Holy Spirit will teach you all things” (John 14:25-26). God the Holy Spirit lives in you! At the moment of salvation, the Holy Spirit indwells you and sealed you. This means that no one can take you out of God’s hand. “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and the Spirit of God dwells in you?” (1 Cor 3:16). These manifestations of the Holy Spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are attributes of Christ’s thinking and must be learned. “If you love Me you will obey Me and My mandates are not hard” (1 John 5:3).Click for Full Transcript https://rhem.pub/ministry-holy-65a2bd

As a Christian, you are a citizen of heaven, not earth. Heaven is beyond description. “The eye has not seen nor has the ear heard nor has it entered into the heart of man the things God has prepared for those who love Him” (1 Col 2:9). There are three regions of heaven. The first heaven is the atmosphere, the oxygen we breathe and the blue skies above. The second heaven is the universe with the stars and planets. The third heaven is the abode of God. None of us can see the third heaven, the spiritual realm. God wants you to understand Him, seek and learn about Him and want to please Him. “The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men to see if there are any who understand, who seek after Him” (Ps 14:2).Click for Full Transcript https://rhem.pub/heaven-transcript-4f1699

Keep your mouth shut and mind your own business. This is the motto of the Christian. “Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life and attend to your own business” (1 Thes 4:11). Have the right motivation and priority, to study God’s Word, and mind your own business and you’ll go a long way in the plan of God. “Study to show yourself approved unto God” (2 Tim 2:15). We are never authorized as a believer to gossip, judge or slander anyone. These are some of the seven worst sins identified in the Bible. Early on in your advance to spiritual maturity, you need to learn how to control your emotions and your tongue. “Those who are wise store up knowledge but the mouth of a stubborn fool invites ruin” (Prov 10:14). Learn when to keep your mouth shut.Click for Full Transcript https://rhem.pub/mind-own-3c8670

Obedience to God is mandated in the Bible. There are hundreds of divine mandates about obedience. “For this is the love of God that we keep His mandates and His mandates are not burdensome” (1 John 5:3). They aren’t hard. We are to obey God rather than men. Your volition is where you choose to obey or disobey God. Disobeying a mandate from God is a sin. Obedience requires humility and the filling of the Holy Spirit. A mandate from God is to “grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Pet 3:18).Click for Full Transcript: https://rhem.pub/obedience-pdf-26b9cc

There is only one way to heaven. Christ said, “I am the way, the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me” (John 14:6). A delusion of the devil is you can work your way into heaven through human good. This delusion of the devil contends that faith is not enough for salvation, that you have to do something else. The world and the flesh are capable of doing good things that are not compatible with God’s plan. As a Christian, you produce either divine good, production when you are filled with the Holy Spirit, or human good, everything done in carnality. Human good will be judged and burned up at the Judgment Seat of Christ. Human good is never acceptable to God. God provides everything you need to live your spiritual life and produce divine good. A delusion of the devil is that by being good you will get to God and that if we would all be good the world would be a much better place. This is a lie.Click for Full TranscriptIf the hotlink doesn't work copy-and-paste this link into your browser: https://rhem.pub/delusions-devil-12541f

God loves you! His essence is love. “God is love” (1 John 4:8). God’s love is manifested to you in many ways. First He sent His uniquely born Son to be judged and die for your sin. God’s love never changes. He is immutable. God’s one is demonstrated in His promises and provisions. His promise of eternal life and eternal security. Nobody can take you out of God’s hand. God’s presence within you demonstrates His love for you. “You will show me the path of life; in your presence is fullness of joy” (Ps 16:11). His power over love and over death also show His love. A personal relationship with Jesus Christ is the only cure for a broken heart.Click for Full Transcript https://rhem.pub/gods-love-c2edaf

The Word of God and the filling of the Holy Spirit can give you the confidence and the courage to endure the great pressures that can, and will, come your way. Take confidence in this—for you nothing is abnormal, it’s all in God’s plan. You are valuable to God. “What time I am afraid I will trust in Thee” (Ps 56:3). Fear is a sin and can ruin your life. “Be strong and of good courage. Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9). Physical courage is a human virtue but spiritual courage is a required character asset called faith. Click for Full Transcript https://rhem.pub/courage-pressure-3042c2
