Bill Stockham | PentecostalTheology.com“And these words that I command you today SHALL BE ON YOUR HEART. You shall TEACH THEM DILIGENTLY TO YOUR CHILDREN, and shall TALK OF THEM when you sit in your house, and when you WALK BY THE WAY, and WHEN YOU LIE DOWN, and WHEN YOU RISE. (Deut. 6:6-7) [When I got saved as a grown man, I knew nothing of the word of God. What I noticed as I began to read, there was something different about these words, they were alive and they spoke to me!] “Do what is right and good in the LORD’s sight, so that it may go well with you…” (Deut. 6:18) [My life was different, I longed to do things that would please my Abba Father, I desired to do what was right before God, so I desired to:] “…search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me [Jesus]…” (John 5:39) [I did not have a very happy family life growing up so how wonderful in searching the scriptures to find that:] “The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that WE ARE CHILDREN OF GOD, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and FELLOW HEIRS WITH CHRIST…” (Rom. 8:16-17) [Wow, I’m born again, all my sins are forgiven! I am a brand new creation, I have a new Abba Father, and a new and glorious savior for my brother!] “…if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. In the same way, THE SPIRIT HELPS US IN OUR WEAKNESS. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself INTERCEDES FOR US through wordless groans.” (Rom. 8:25-26) [To INTERCEDE: is to communicate the needs of others, the Holy Spirit helps us by communicating our needs to the Father! Then I found this wonder prayer that Paul prayed for me and for you – RECEIVE THIS TODAY!] “I pray that out of his glorious riches HE MAY STRENGTHEN YOU WITH POWER through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being ROOTED AND ESTABLISHED IN LOVE, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge–that YOU MAY BE FILLED TO THE MEASURE OF ALL THE FULLNESS OF GOD.” (Eph. 3:16-19)
Be blessed as you praise The Lord, knowing that WE MAY BE FILLED TO THE MEASURE OF ALL THE FULLNESS OF GOD!
