"GOD'S EXCELLENCY IN HIS ATTRIBUTES" God’s excellency is most profoundly seen in His attributes. The completeness and perfection of His nature are expressed in His qualities. Omnipotence: There is no limit to the extent of God's power. His omnipotence ensures that His purposes will always be fulfilled. Omniscience: God’s knowledge is perfect. He is the All knowing God. Omnipresence: His presence in the deepest recesses of the heart of those filled with His Spirit cannot be underestimated. In Jeremiah 23:23-24, God reminds us that He is both near and far, and no one can hide from His presence. Immutability: God’s nature and character are unchanging. Unlike humans, who are prone to change in thoughts, actions, and emotions, God remains constant. According to James 1:17, in God, there is no variation or shadow due to change. His promises are reliable..... This gives individuals a solid foundation of hope and security, knowing that God's nature remains eternally excellent. Psalm 8:1 "O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens." Psalm 8:1 is a declaration of God's greatness, both in His intimate relationship with humans and His universal reign over all creation. It marvels at how the natural world especially the heavens displays God's incomparable power and glory, making His name majestic across the entire earth. The verse reminds believers to continue to recognize God's greatness and to worship Him for His unsurpassed excellence. #TheInspirer #TheExtraordinary #Excellence #GodsexcellencyinHisattributes #TheHeavenlydiary

📖 Devotion and Application from Amos 5:25 🙏 Hey friends! Today, let's dive into Amos 5:25 and draw some inspiration and application from this powerful verse. In Amos 5:25, God says, "Did you bring me offerings and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness, people of Israel?" This verse reminds us of the importance of true worship and obedience to God's commandments. Devotion: As we reflect on this verse, let's remember that our worship should not be limited to rituals or religious practices alone. God desires our hearts to be fully devoted to Him in every aspect of our lives. Let's offer Him our genuine love, obedience, and surrender. Application: In our daily lives, let's strive to live out our faith authentically. Our actions should align with our beliefs, and our worship should go beyond mere words. Let's seek to love and serve others selflessly, showing God's love and grace wherever we go. Let's be a reflection of His light in this world! Remember, God is not looking for empty sacrifices, but for sincere hearts. Let's make our lives a living sacrifice, honoring and glorifying Him in all we do. Let's be a generation that worships Him in spirit and truth! Feel free to share your thoughts and insights on Amos 5:25 in the comments below. Let's encourage and inspire one another as we grow in our faith journey! #DevotionOfTheDay #Amos525 #LivingSacrifice #WorshipInSpiritAndTruth #GodFirst

According to St. Josemaria Escriva, encountering God through ordinary means is threefold: sanctifying the work itself, sanctifying ourselves in the work, and sanctifying others through it. Questions to consider today: Are we sanctifying our work? Is it done for the love of God? Do we work with the greatest possible human perfection? Is our work a gift offered to God? Do we work in union with Christ? Are we being transformed into other Christs?  What apostolic fruit are we producing with our work? 

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. James 4:10 Humility brings us into line with Christ. With humility we start the process of coming to believe. In order to get to where we can be restored, we have to have humility. We come. We come with humility. We come knowing that we can’t restore ourselves. We come with humility to believe that God can do what we cannot do. We are restored through a process of understanding that God is God and we are not. The process of being restored begins and ends with humility. Humility is essential if we are to experience sanity. Humility is necessary for us to begin the healing process. Without humility we cannot change and grow in God’s love. When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. Proverbs 11:2 God Bless you and have a wonderful Monday!!!

Monday’s with Mike .. . PATIENCE -Dr Charles Stanley preached on The Grace of Waiting and it is so befitting for us today that I wanted share some of it with you. We don’t like to wait because we aren’t in control, but it’s a big part of the Christian life. Remember, that while we are waiting, God is working. Waiting on God increases our faith in Him. As we are told in Psalm 27:14 “Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!.” The prophet Isaiah tells us in chapter 30:18, “Therefore the Lord waits to be gracious to you, and therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. For the Lord is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait.” Waiting is an obedience to The Lord. It’s not the wings of the eagle that makes him soar. It’s the wind currents above that he depends on for all his abilities. The Holy Spirit is the “wind” Christ Jesus wants us to soar on in times of waiting. Examine your life. Sin is one of the primary reasons God isn't answering. Perhaps the circumstances aren't right for you. Find strength in the waiting by refocusing on Him and what He wants for your life. He loves you. Have a blessed week. #steelindustry #steelconstruction #steelfabrication #steelmanufacturing #steelbuildings #steelsupplier #steel #metalfabrication #metalforming #metal #metalindustry #metalroofing #metalprocessing #coil #coiledtubing

God Is Our Comfort 'And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;'- John 14:16 Remember that Jesus was saying these things to His disciples so that they would not be offended. Jesus is speaking to His disciples about the Holy Spirit, who is the Comforter. The ministry of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer is the front line of defense against the devil and his devices of defeat. The phrase, 'The God of all comfort' carries the idea of a divine comforter who encourages, refreshes, strengthens, aids, assists, and is an ever present help in the time of need. The ways that God chooses to comfort are not always the same. He may deliver you or remove the cause of the affliction, or He may comfort you with words giving you a hope for the future. He also uses people to share their faith with you by prophesying. He sends fellow-laborers to serve and strengthen you by the ministry of the Word, and uses the body of Christ as a channel to comfort you, using prayer. The point is that the source of all comfort is God, no matter what channel He chooses to use. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, God revealed to Paul that His strength is made perfect in our weakness. Paul, who had experienced God's comfort in a way that perhaps no other man has, now reveals how the Lord accomplished this. It was through the power of the Holy Spirit. True Christianity is not the absence of trials, but the strength and comfort of Jesus through the Holy Spirit, that will bring us through to the other side. Even a strong metal container with a vacuum inside will be crushed just by normal atmospheric pressure. But that same container, with an equal or greater amount of pressure inside, will be just fine. Likewise, an individual who is void of God's comfort inside will be crushed by the pressures of this life. But a believer who takes advantage of the comfort available to him through the Holy Spirit, can withstand anything. Victory is not dependent on the pressures without, but rather on the comfort within.

ETERNITY IN VIEW! CRITICISMS, JUDGMENT, PREJUDICES, APPLAUD, etc. None of them can accurately DEFINE the reality of anyone. Most times, we count so much on such perspectives from others that it drives us crazy, especially when it doesn't favour us. Whereas the scripture stresses that: "For we are His WORKMANSHIP, created in CHRIST JESUS for GOOD WORKS, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them"- Eph.2:10 This bible is the Manufactural's manual. God originally created us, perfectly in His own image. Afterwards, He thwarted the devil's interruptions by RECREATING us through JESUS to achieve His pre-planned GOOD WORKS. This DEFINES us and should determine our THOUGHTS, CHOICES, or ACTIONS, irrespective of our location, situations, or the people around us. Undoubtedly, only God's DEFINITION of us should give us the needed confidence to fulfil our DESTINY! The point: Living by man's opinions is dangerous as it rarely aligns with God's. Therefore, live by WHO God says you are! We're blessed.

Our FATHER in Heaven, we come before YOU, grateful to see another day. YOU continue to carry us and keep us out of harm's way. We are more fortunate than some, but sometimes are focused on things that will not benefit our Eternity. Help us to keep our minds on YOU, not on anyone or thing, that could corrupt our actions or words. YOU care about every area of our lives, so we need YOUR Help in every area. Help us to accomplish YOUR Whole Will for our lives.Please forgive us of our sins as we seek Salvation, guidance, correction, and deliverance for those who sin against us. Clearly show us YOUR Will for our time, talents, and resources, in detail like how YOU showed Noah how to build The Ark. Give is the wisdom needed to be better stewards of what YOU bless us with, like YOU did for King Solomon.We plead The Blood of JESUS Christ over our minds, bodies, and souls. Worldwide, do in us what we can not do for ourselves, make us all vessels lead by YOUR HOLY SPIRIT. So we can all hear YOU say "Well Done " not "Depart from ME " when our earthly journey is over. Close the gates of hell, FATHER GOD. Nothing is too hard for YOU. Invade our conditions, situations, and circumstances,as we study, apply and obey YOUR Word💒Which is able to Save our souls.We want to experience all of YOUR Many Benefits.2 Timothy 3:16-17🙏 https://lnkd.in/gmuEDAsP
