1 John 3 ~ See what kind of Love the Father has Given to us




1 John 3



3 See what kind of love the Father has given to us, 
that we should be called children of God; 
and so we are.

 The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 

2 Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be - has not yet appeared; 
but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. 

3 And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.

4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. 5 You know that he appeared in order to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. 6 No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. 

7 Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. 8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. 

The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. 9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. 

10 By this, it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother.

11 For this is the message that you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12 We should not be like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother's righteous. 13 Do not be surprised, brothers, that the world hates you. 14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. 

Whoever does not love abides in death. 15 Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

16 By this, we know love, 
that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. 17 But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? 

18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.

19 By this we shall know that we are of the truth and reassure our heart before him; 20 for whenever our heart condemns us, 

God is greater than our heart, 
and he knows everything. 

21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God; 22 and whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him. 

23 And this is his commandment, that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us. 

24 Whoever keeps his commandments abides in God, and God in him. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit whom he has given us.





Abram's faith, helps us understand how God can use an imperfect man like Abram to bring about his good purposes. Abram is counted as “righteous,” not because he is worthy (he clearly is not) but because he has faith in God who declares him worthy.



How are we going to obtain God and be who He sees us to be?
Creator of All Things, Ancient of Days, Shepherd and Captain of our Souls. Father of the Righteous in Jesus Christ. Father of All. He has named the Heavens. The Heavenly Host are His.

We connect with God only because our Father lives to Love and have Mercy.
Father God bends far down to hear our souls connect to heart and mind. With belief and sincerity - God is going to be part of us. And when we believe God - He is going to help us continue each day to have a meaningful life of Joy. To take what is difficult and make Love. To give mercy and dignity to those around us.




Consider what we know of each day of Jesus.

Jesus spoke of working a vineyard. Constant effort. Beauty. Precision. Fragile. Enduring. Practical in life. Rise from day to day practical to Faith.

Jesus could hear the willingness of His Father, and our Father, each day and Jesus traveled to do the Will of God.

Jesus tells us when we have seen Jesus, we have seen the Father.

If we do not hear the willingness of God and yet we are willing, God will do the impossible to make the willingness of Father God's Love come to us. Jesus went all over in the Willingness of God. And a few times Jesus told people to do things like go to the Pool of Siloam (Sent) (we want to be sent!) and stay out of the Village. Sounds like advice we'd all like to have from time to time. And when we didn't hear - God is going to sweep all things together for Good. As long as we Believe Him. Looking to see what is Good in Life.





We can't walk the same path as Father God of All the Universe Creation.
God is Amazing and Astonishing. And Jesus demonstrated this path-walking, very thing, with Paul, reaching down immediately to help Paul walk securely with Jesus.

God brought clouds (maybe like this one) to the First Temple of God. God will come to us as well.

Jesus is recorded as bringing the boat immediately to shore in John 4. God brings the Path. The Way, the Truth and the Life.





When we Believe God is at work - we have given God the motivation and Joy to be at Work. God Himself commended His Beloved in the Great Chapter of Hebrews 11.

Because

Hebrews 11:6
Without faith it is impossible to please God, 

because anyone who comes to him must believe that He exists 
and that he rewards 
those who earnestly seek him.








Abba,

We love to remember Jesus as Grace upon Grace. From His fullness, we have received.



Mark 9:23-24
23“If You can?” echoed Jesus. “All things are possible to him who believes!” 

24 Immediately the boy’s father cried out, “I do believe; help my unbelief!”

We believe in Your Word's the prayer of a righteous man availeth much. We pray for those who have asked us to pray for them, body, mind and soul.


 Praying with expectation.


Blessing Father God for this month - Family arriving from far, far away and their coming travels to be safe. Saying thank You for Good News arriving by mail and touching the heart and soul.


Asking blessings on the elderly for fortitude, health and clarity. 


Seeing the new season of summer with Profound Joy.


God will bless us for far away prayers like praying for the nation and nations. 


Knowing we asked God to bring Truth to the news, more Good News and balance. And Thank Him we have received. For refusing to be discouraged. 


God has room to show He is God and God is not worried.  Whew.


Blessing Abba for covering us in the Name of Jesus as we ask more Heaven on earth.


Blessings upon the Merciful. Thank You.


Amen in Jesus for God is Greater and is our Righteousness!






For Lent, the Watchtower for Easter
as this Watchtower in Nazareth.

Counting our Blessings

The Children of God

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
