Joy Notes – “Loving on God”

April 1, 2016 / Joy Lyons / Leave a comment

The love of God comes to the human spirit when we communicate or fellowship with Him.
When we are Loving on God – His loves fills us. —– How do we obtain it?
—
By coming and bathing in His love. I am not talking about spending hours praying. Most folks when they come to pray are simply bombarding the Lord with petitions and requests. I am talking about coming into His presence just to spend time with Him.
\o/
Jesus said: This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no man than this, that a man should lay down his life for his friend. God commended His great love towards us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.
\o/
In Scripture it says: We love Him because He first loved us. If you want to see the force of love go to work in your life, start giving, giving and giving. I will show shortly that faith and love work together. If you want to release the power of faith, you will need
love to go with it.
==========================================
How we must grieve Him when we so rarely go to Him just to spend some time with Him, but almost always to ask for something for ourselves or someone else.

-Joy Notes- “Trusting a Loving God”

February 25, 2016 / Joy Lyons / Leave a comment

God wants to lift our burdens, but he can’t as long as we’re tightly grasping them.

Have you ever noticed how some people derive their identity from their burdens?

In worship, we’re caught up in the immensity of God. It’s easier to stop grasping for control and to start trusting a loving God who has a bigger plan for us than we can imagine.

Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you!

-Joy Notes- “LEARNING TO LEAN ON JESUS”

January 20, 2016 / Joy Lyons / Leave a comment

Learning to lean, learning to lean on Jesus; Finding more power than I’d ever dreamed; I’m learning to lean on Jesus; A joy I can’t explain is filling my soul since the day I met Jesus my King; His blessed Holy Spirit is leading my way; He is teachihg and I’m learning to lean; There’s glorious victory each day now for me as I dwell in His peace so serene; He helps me with each task if only I ask; Every day now I am learning to lean.
===================================
When we lean on Christ we develop broad shoulders, — to defend ourselves from the enemy. We stand tall and proud in His honor and glory. — Jesus wants us to lean on Him entirely, we can lean on Him to keep us in His will. — I’m glad about that because trying to stay in his will on our own strength is too difficult.

We must trust Him to keep us in His will, to straighten out any crooked paths in front of
us and to keep us on the narrow path.

We often think only weak or frail people lean but leaning on Jesus is a good thing.

When discouragement or condemnation tries to over take you, ask the Lord for strength and courage. Today is a new day. He loves you and His mercy is new every morning.

“I refuse to be discouraged. the Bible says You love me. Jesus died for me. I’ll be fine, today will be a great day – I am Learning to Lean On Jesus!

We know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His Purpose.

For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the Firstborn among many brethren.

Moreover whom He did predestinate, them He also called: and whom He called, them He also justified: and whom He justified, them He also glorified!

==================================================================

Righteousness, justice, love, and faithfulness are the foundation of God’s throne;

they are fundamental aspects of the way God rules.

As God’s ambassadors, we should deal with people similarly.

Make sure your actions flow out of righteousness, justice, love, and faithfulness because

any unfair, unloving, or dishonest action cannot come from God.

Let your Light so Shine!!

Anger Builds Walls – Love Breaks Them Down.

June 23, 2015 / Joy Lyons / Leave a comment

Anger builds walls, love breaks them down.
—
If we have built walls of anger and separation between ourselves and others, the Lord is willing and very able to help us begin this very day to tear them down.
—
Let’s Read Genesis 50:15-21 (KJV)

15 And when Joseph’s brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him.
16 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying,

17 So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.

18 And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we be thy servants.
19 And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God?

20 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.
21 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.
—
Even after the way his brothers had treated him, Joseph was able to treat his brother with kindness. He told them they had tried to harm me, but God made it turn out for the best.
(he could save all the people, as he was now doing) He also spoke to them, “Don’t be afraid! I will take care of you and your children.” After Joseph said this, his brothers felt much better.
—
Love had broken down the walls of anger that had been built between Joseph and his brothers – God had used the brothers anger for the good of them all. He can and will do the same in our lives today.
—
Examine our hearts, LORD and reveal to us where we have made walls in our own relationships. Lord, showus the way of love to start tearing them down, so we may enter into reconciliation. In Jesus’s Name — LET IT BE SO!

GOD’S LOVE NEVER CHANGES

April 26, 2015 / Bernadette Rae / Leave a comment

God’s love never changes. Your circumstances may change but the the love of God in Christ Jesus always remains the same constant powerful never ending love. His Word is true and trustworthy never leaving you or forsaking you no matter what happens. We must remind ourselves of this and build up our faith everyday. Take the time to spend in God’s Word which is pure truth to every believers heart. You will know for sure that God’s love never changes! It will not fail! (1Cor 13:8, Heb 13:5, Rom 8:38-39).

Heb 13:8 ~ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
