Writing assignment: use the following words or a form thereof in a story...
sickness heritage charity
prayer love faith
hope different death
First John 4:8 tells us that “God
is Love” and if we believe nothing else, we can hang our hat
securely on that scripture. And if we know “God
is Love” then we also have “Hope in God”
because where our faith
is, there is hope.
It is no different to have
faith in God than to have faith in the chair you sit upon. You know that chair
will hold your weight and you sit down confidently that you won’t fall on the
floor. When you come to God in faith, you can confidently rest in His care,
knowing He will work everything out for your good and His glory.
We can
confidently pray
for the sick
and we hope for their healing; but even if it is their time to go home and be
with the Lord in death,
they are healed for all eternity. It is a win-win situation and God does work
things out for good.
I claimed my
inheritance as a
child of the Most High God when my mother-in-law fell to her knees and started
praying for her heathen daughter-in-law. It took twelve years after I entered
the Shirley family before I entered the Kingdom of God but I am so thankful she
prayed me in.
“And now
abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is
charity.” (1Cor 13:13) The original Greek word for charity is agape, which means affection, good will,
benevolence, and brotherly love. God wants us to abide in His love.
