OVERCOMERS has started a new year and we are talking about VERY BIG MISTAKES that GODS PEOPLE made and what GOD did about them. We talked about Adam & Eve, Cain & Abel, the Flood, Pharaoh, Aaron making a golden calf, and King Saul thinking he knew better than GOD.
We learned that GOD wants us to obey HIM and realize that HE is the only TRUE GOD. If people make a mistake GOD can forgive them if they repent and ask for forgiveness. HE has the plan in place - of a Savior - and HE loves us and wants to take people to heaven. HE knows best and HE is strongest and can do anything to help us. HE is stronger than any enemy.
We had the 10 Commandments for memory work, and that:
"If you love ME, you will keep My commandments" John 14:15
Faith in GOD is a matter of the heart - so if you let GOD in and treasure HIM your life will be changed:
"The good man out of the good treasure of his heart
brings forth what is good
and the evil man out of the evil treasure
brings forth what is evil" Luke 6:45
Thanksgiving is approaching. Let us realize how many things GOD gives us and that HE cares for us. Let us be very thankful for all HIS love and gifts. Have a blessed Thanksgiving. Jan Trost
