JULY 8 – JOHN 15:13

7/8             John 15:13

13 There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

EXAMPLE

Jesus is our example.

His life is the way we pattern our life.

Follow Jesus.

Love one another.

Lay down your life for people.

JULY 7 – 1 JOHN 4:19

7/7             1 John 4:19

19 We love each other because he loved us first.

YOU

You are valuable.

You are different than me.

But you are beloved of God.

I love you.

JULY 6 – EPH. 2:4-5

7/6             Ephesians 2:4-5

4 But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, 5 that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!)

AMAZING

Dead in our trespasses and sin.

God comes looking for us. 

He knows what we are and gives us new life. 

He knows what we can become and uses us for His work.

We are His children, and it is all because of Jesus. 

Praise God. 

JULY 5 – ZEPH. 3:17

7/5             Zephaniah 3:17

17 For the Lord your God is living among you.
    He is a mighty savior.
He will take delight in you with gladness.
    With his love, he will calm all your fears.
    He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.”

LORD

Jesus is Lord.

He is with us.

When we ask Him into our hearts it is forever.

He will calm our fears.

He will always be with us.

JULY 4 – 1 JOHN 3:1

7/4             1 John 3:1

See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him.

LOST

The world is lost.

People who love the world do not accept Jesus Christ as Lord.    

Therefore, they are lost. 

Jesus said that He was the way, the truth, and the life.

And that He was the only way to the Father. 

JULY 3 – ROM. 8:37-39

7/3             Romans 8:37-39

37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[a] neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

ONCE

Accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

You will never lose that relationship.

Once you are saved you are always saved.

Jesus is Lord. 

JULY 2 – 1 JOHN 4:16

7/2             1 John 4:16

16 We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love.  God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.

LOVE

God is love.

We cannot know love apart from God. 

For by grace are you saved-His love saves you forever.

That no man can boast-It is the free gift of God. 

Jesus saves.

JULY 1 – JOHN 3:16

7/1             John 3:16

16 “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

GAVE

Jesus gave Himself willingly as the price of our redemption.

He died for you and me. 

He lived a perfect life.

He died a perfect sacrifice.

His death, burial, and resurrection paid the price for our sin. 

Now you and I have available the free gift of life eternal. 

By faith ask Jesus to give you life. 

JUNE 30 – LUKE 8:15

06/30          Luke 8:15

15 And the seeds that fell on the good soil represent honest, good-hearted people who hear God’s word, cling to it, and patiently produce a huge harvest.

HEAR

We can hear God’s word.

It comes from God to His people. 

Choose Jesus and become a part of God’s people.

Stay in the Word and you will hear God. 

JUNE 29 – ROM. 8:29

06/29          Romans 8:29

29 For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.

CALLING

God is calling all to come to Jesus.

Some respond.

Some don’t. 

God is calling, listen to Him and respond to Jesus.

Let Him have your heart and lead your life.
