June 14 & 15 Thought for the Day

A Love Letter From God To You!

 

 

 


 

My child,

May My Grace, My unmerited favor, and My spiritual peace be yours, sent personally to you from Me. I, the God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ has poured this grace into your life.
 
Praise Me! The God and Father of your Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed you, has given you every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms, every possible spiritual benefit as citizens of Heaven! All because you belong to Christ!

For consider what I have done - I chose you in him, in Christ - long before I laid down the earth's foundations. Before the creation of the world, I actually picked you out for Myself as My own. I chose you to be holy, to be set apart for Me; and I see you as blameless and unblemished. I chose you to be My child living within My constant care. I settled on you as the focus of My love.

In love I predestined you. I planned for you to be adopted as my son or daughter, My own child through Jesus Christ. You are My child in accordance with My pleasure and will--(What pleasure I took in planning this!)

I want you to enter into the celebration of My lavish gift giving, which I have freely given you in the One I love. I desire for you to learn to praise that glorious generosity of mine which has made you welcome in My everlasting love, the same everlasting love that I extend towards My Son.

So overflowing is My kindness toward you, so rich is My kindness, that in Him, through My Son, Jesus Christ you have redemption. That redemption or payment for your sins was costly. It was at the cost of My Son's own blood.

And you have forgiveness of sins. You are free of penalties and punishments chalked up by all your misdeeds. All of this is in accordance with the riches and the generosity of My gracious favor that I lavished on you. I showered My kindness on you with all wisdom and understanding.

And I made known to you the mystery of My will. I have allowed you to know the secret of My plan. It is a plan centered on Christ, designed long ago according to My good pleasure. And this is My plan: At the right time I will bring everything, all things in heaven and on earth together under the authority of Christ.

And here is the staggering thing - In Him, in Christ, you were also chosen, having been predestined according to My plan; and I work out everything in conformity with My purpose of will, in order that you might be for the praise of My glory.

And when you believed in Christ, I identified you as Christ's own by giving you the Holy Spirit, whom I promised long ago. You were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a guarantee of purchase; or a deposit guaranteeing your inheritance until the day when I complete the purchase of what Christ has paid for as His own; the redemption of those who are God's possession.

Signed,
God
