This Day! Ephesians 1 & 1 John 4

“The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.” The origin of this quote is likely from Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in the 10th Century AD originally quoted as “Hell is full of good intentions or desires.” “The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.” The origin of this quote is likely from Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in the 10th Century AD originally quoted as “Hell is full of good intentions or desires.”

The Apostle Paul tells us of his Own Human Struggle

Romans 7:18-19 NCV “Yes, I know that nothing good lives in me—I mean nothing good lives in the part of me that is earthly and sinful. I want to do the things that are good, but I do not do them. Romans 7:18-19 NCV “Yes, I know that nothing good lives in me—I mean nothing good lives in the part of me that is earthly and sinful. I want to do the things that are good, but I do not do them.

Romans 7:18-19 NCV “I do not do the good things I want to do, but I do the bad things I do not want to do.” Romans 7:18-19 NCV “I do not do the good things I want to do, but I do the bad things I do not want to do.”

How Do We Overcome Such? God Reveals to Us the Way! How Do We Overcome Such? God Reveals to Us the Way!

Ephesians 1:3-6 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ… Ephesians 1:3-6 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ…

…just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love having predestined us to adoption…

…as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.

1 John 4:7-12 “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love… 1 John 4:7-12 “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love…

…does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.

Constantly Remembering God’s Desire! This Day, Live in His Love! Constantly Remembering God’s Desire! This Day, Live in His Love!

Ephesians 1:4 “He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love…” Ephesians 1:4 “He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love…”

Romans 5:1-5 “Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have… Romans 5:1-5 “Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have…

…access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations…

…knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope.

Now hope does not disappoint because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”

2 Timothy 1:7 “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7 “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”

So this Day… Love At Every Opportunity! So this Day… Love At Every Opportunity!

“I will greet this day with love in my heart. For this is the greatest secret of success in all ventures. Muscles can split a shield and even destroy life itself but only the unseen power of love can open the hearts of man.

And until I master this act I will remain no more than a peddler in the marketplace. I will make love my greatest weapon and none on who I call can defend upon its force...

…my love will melt all hearts liken to the sun whose rays soften the coldest day.” Og Mandino …my love will melt all hearts liken to the sun whose rays soften the coldest day.” Og Mandino

So this Day… Let the Love of God flow through you to ‘melt’ every heart that comes before you! So this Day… Let the Love of God flow through you to ‘melt’ every heart that comes before you!

This Day! Ephesians 1 & 1 John 4
