And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
John 1:14
And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

It is God himself who has made us what we are and given us new lives from Christ Jesus; and long ages ago he planned that we should spend these lives in helping others.
—Ephesians 2:10 (TLB)
Happiness and all of the unlimited benefits which flow from the storehouse of heaven are contingent upon our relationship to God. Absolute dependency and absolute yieldedness are the conditions of being His child. Only His children are entitled to receive those things that lend themselves to happiness; and in order to be His child, there must be surrender of the will to Him.

We must admit we are poor before we can be made rich. We must admit we are destitute before we can become children of adoption. When we realize that all our own goodness is as filthy rags in God’s sight, and become aware of the destructive power of our stubborn wills; when we realize our absolute dependence upon the grace of God through faith and nothing more, then we have started on the road to happiness.

Man does not come to know God through works—he comes to know God by faith through grace. You cannot work your way toward happiness and heaven, you cannot moralize your way, you cannot reform your way, you cannot buy your way. It comes as a gift of God through Christ.

Listen: Billy Graham preaches on total surrender.

Prayer for the day
Ever impress upon us, Lord Jesus, that it is through grace that we came to know You; that it is because of You that we stand righteous before You.

“4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. “

Philippians 4:4-7 NIV

Please pray for those who have been injured at the shooting in Las Vegas, NV, those who are assisting them in the ER’s, the First Responders and the families of those who have been murdered and injured.

May God provide His Grace and Comfort to all of the families affected and to our Nation during these days of tragedy and violence.

Pray for our President and his counselors as they respond to the great needs in our Nation.

What happened in Las Vegas last night is an image of ogre evil.

“Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” 1 Peter 5:8 NIV

The actions of those who helped others who were shot is a demonstration of pure love.

“My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater Love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command.”
John 15:12-14 NIV

God bless you,

Pastor John
