The kind of worship that pleases Him

By Sheilla Mo

For now there are faith, hope, and love. But of these three, the greatest is love.
[1 Corinthians 13:13]


It is the Holy week yet again to celebrate our victories on the cross!I'm so excited that I decided to call it the love week...God's love for us is beyond comprehension and words can't even begin to describe it.
His highest expression of this incredible love for us was for Him to allow His one and only Son to be crucified by the very ones that mocked him!It is priceless I tell you!If we could only follow in his footsteps and see  others through His eyes,the word would be a bliss!It  makes perfect sense that the greatest command of God is love and it sums up all the other commands to it.God is love.—Romans 13:9-10
God wants us to love others.How can we say we love God that we can't see and find it difficult to love others that we see everyday,it doesn't add up!
 What is important to God is faith expressing itself in love.'Come to think of it, it should be easy  to wish the very things  that you want God to bless you with to your worst enemy!Yes,for such is love...Matthew 22:37 New King James Version | The New Bible.com

Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
1 John 3:15 New Living Translation | The New Bible.com


Anyone who hates another brother or sister is really a murderer at heart. And you know that murderers don’t have eternal life within them. If someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister in need but shows no compassion—how can God’s love be in that person? Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions. http://bible.com/116/1JN3.15.NLT

The message of the cross is simple.Jesus came to the world to destroy the works of the devil and died for you to give you life in abundance;life of superior quality but mainly salvation.

He was rejected so you will be accepted by God.
He was wounded that you will be healed.
He was poor so you will be rich.
He became a curse so you will be a blessing for His kingdom.
He reconciled people to God so you could do the same and be an ambassador for Christ and all this is possible when you love...
When you love others,you are worshiping God in truth and Spirit,for this is the kind of worship that pleases Him.

Jesus's greatest Testimony

Image
When Christ died, he died for sin once and for all. But now he is alive, and he lives only for God. There has and will never  be a god or any leader of somewhat denomination that will deafeat death.Some have died but are being worshiped...seriously! His greatest testimony is that He has defeated death for us all and He is alive! Whereas our greatest testimony should be to die for Him every single day. Romans 6:1-14 What should we say? Should we keep on sinning, so that God's gift of undeserved grace will show up even better? No, we should not! If we are dead to sin, how can we go on sinning? Don't you know that all who share in Christ Jesus by being baptized also share in his death?  When we were baptized, we died and were buried with Christ. We were baptized, so we would live a new life, as Christ was raised to life by the glory of God the Father.  If we shared in Jesus' death by being baptized, we will be raised to life with him. We know that the persons w...

Intimacy with the Holy Spirit Diary

Image
© sheillamooblogspot.ie God the Father decided to choose you as his people, and his Spirit has made you holy. [1  Peter 1:2] I used to ask myself,what do they mean when they say intimacy with Holy Spirit?You wouldin't understand until you've had an experience yourself.Once you've tasted it,there is no words enough to comprehend the glory.By the way,I've recently learnt that Holy means to be separated. In my own understanding it all tells me that I'm very special. The Holy Spirit is a person who wants to be one with you.He is the Spirit of truth.This truth is His unconditional love for your soul.It was very hard for me to believe that He lives inside of me  but one day everything changed.I let go of myself and at that moment He asked me to believe that He is there...there inside of me...He said that He values me more than anything:)This was all I needed to grasp.This is the assurance that we need to encounter.Ever since then,my life was never the same...

Women of the Bible [Part 3]

Mary Magdeline  By Sheilla Mo As we learnt with Sarah,let us take notes from Marry as well. The Past ^ She was despised by others because she used to be a prostitute but Jesus looked beyond her mistakes. The latter ^ Marry was there for Jesus until the end.. Matthew 27:61 GNB Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there, facing the tomb. ^ She gave Jesus something that was so precious to her... I personally love perfumes and I'm pretty sure women in general have a thing for perfumes as well.This perfume that cost a whole years wages must have been really something to be recorded in the bible.Judas even criticised her thinking that it was wasted but Marry was only expressing how much she adored Jesus iregardless of what others thought of her actions. ^ Marry was the firs person Jesus saw after He resurrected... [John 20:11-18 GNB] Mary stood crying outside the tomb. While she was still crying, she bent over and looked in the tomb and saw t...
