One thing we know about the Heart of God for certain is that He wants a personal relationship with each of the human beings He created. In the Garden, He was able to have that with the first two He made. 

But fellowship was broken when sin came into the picture. Despite this grave situation, God took pity on humanity. He mercifully provided a way to restore things through what Jesus Christ did on the cross on our behalf..

He paid the price for our sin so we could spend eternity with Him if we would look to the blood of Jesus and put our trust in Him for Salvation.

Scripture assures us that God wants every one of us to be saved-

This is the Heart of God for us... Praise the Lord!

              GOOD  STUFF,  MAYNARD!

You may not be my species...

But you're alright by me

Love this one.

 

@marvelloustime I love it, too. When I was just a girl this was one of my favorites in our church hymnal. Must have been the Pastor's, as well...because we sang this one a LOT. he he.  

Thanks for posting this. It is a really nice version of it. Did you know it was written by a blind poet named Fanny Crosby? Hers is a fascinating story. I will be posting a biography clip under General videos. Keep watch for it, okay? God bless you.

A tiny rhyme to go along with this emoji who I have affectionately named "Go-Go-Gospel" because of the circuit riders of old who used to go from village to village spreading the gospel via horse.

Spreading the gospel far and near

It looks like Go-Go has been here

Is that biblical?  Thanks.

@marvelloustime said, "He transforms us by His Holy Spirit to make us more like Him." (I hope it is okay if I answer for her  She can add on, if she wishes. But this is one verse showing it is scriptural.)

"And we all having been unveiled in face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image, from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit." (2 Cor 3:18)

I'm a joyful contender for the gospel.

Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. (Jude 1:3)

Raising up my hands in praise.

@Amanda Frances Amen!

In our ever changing world that seems to shift like sand

There is a wondrous truth that we have come to understand

@frienduff thaylorde

Praise the Lord! I am so happy you are back!

It's been a long 2 weeks without you here

(due to you being without a wifi connection.) 

@marvelloustime Those were truly marvelous scriptures you posted!

Thanks for bringing them to my Proverbs thread. They have been a blessing to me and I'm sure they are to all who read them.

@marvelloustime Lovely picture and scripture, sis! 

This one makes me think of Isaiah 59:19

So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.

@marvelloustime

The New Testament agrees nicely with this one, too. he he.

"For we walk by faith, not by sight." (1 Peter 5:7)

Isn't it something how the scriptures from the Old are confirmed in the New? I looove when God does that! 

On 1/17/2020 at 1:26 PM, marvelloustime said:

Amen. Romans 12:19 goes hand in hand with the one you posted.

"Friends, do not avenge yourselves; instead, leave room for His wrath. For it is written: Vengeance belongs to Me; I will repay, says the Lord."

@marvelloustime When I read this, A New Testament verse about His wonderful Name popped in my mind.

"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12) Since it talks about His name and being safe it seemed like a New Testament counterpart to it.
