God Has Given Jesus Christ as Our Hope, Inheritance and Head

Paul prays for us to know the power and value of this great gift. Ephesians 1:15-23 15For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your…

The Lord blesses me with so many things: adoption into His family, good health, resources, a loving family and friends who laugh at my jokes and can make me laugh. Even so, I know much of what He has given, I don’t fully comprehend. Some of the words the Bible uses to describe the Lord’s giving are “lavished”, “freely” “generously” and “abundantly”

Recommended by Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, I was reading The Incomparable Christ by J. Oswald Sanders and came across a word that puts the openness of His giving into a nut shell – if that can even be done. MUNIFICENCE: willing to give and share unstintingly, bountiful, liberal, lavishly generous; great generosity

Don’t you just love it! The word sounds just like the meaning. The Lord’s gifts are not only magnificent (splendid or impressive in appearance, exalted; outstanding of its kind; excellent); they are also munificent.

In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that He lavished on us. (Ephesians 1:8)

Please, don’t get me started on “lavished”!!

There’s nothing like a good word or song to encourage us. The link below is to Andrae Crouch’s classic: We Need A Word from You. Take a listen.

We Need a Word From You by Andrae Crouch

Sing A New (or old) Song

My prayer is that something on the website (the words or perhaps a link to a song) is an encouragement. I'll be honest - songs are such an encouragement to me. Through songs the Lord shows Himself faithful. I've heard that phrase much of my life. But the meaning is unfolding to me. Like an accordion, the meaning is unraveling as I've never imagined before. Is that happening for you too?

The steadfast love of the Lord is never ceases. His mercies never come to an end; they are NEW every morning.
(Lamentations 3:22)
Considering that, I want to sing a NEW song to Him. (Psalm 96:1)
Old or new, He's deserving of our songs and our daily praise: YOMPRAISE!
