“It’s A Personal Thing”
II Corinthians 6:14-18; Daniel 3:17
Many times in preaching, writing, and praying I say with heart conviction, “that I may know Christ” (Philippians 3:10) You see, if He can say to me, I am His beloved, and God can say, “He is one of My people”. He says to me, whom He has chosen, that He is my God; He does not say that of the whole world, though He brought them all into existence, but only of His chosen ones.
God is all knowing, nothing takes Him by surprise. Has it ever occurred to you that nothing has ever occurred to God, He is God, Amen! God has not turned this world over to man yet, He is still in control. But His chosen ones, those born again, are His special possession, look what He has done for them - He purchased us with His blood, Oh precious blood, that flows freely still. He took us from beggars to His bosom, and we are loved with an everlasting love. Can you my friend, count yourself in that number, by faith in the crucified One? Can you look up with full assurance and proclaim, “my Lord, and my God”? Can you say with the three Hebrew boys, “our God whom we serve, will deliver us”? Can you read your title clear to a mansion in the sky? It is written in blood you know, if you’ve been born again. Can you say by faith, that He has done a work in you, then God readily says, you are “My People.”
“I AM”
I am His and He is mine, He is Lord, in Christ I’m fine;
He loves me special, He loves me so, I am His, and that I know.
I am accepted, I am His choice, And daily now, I hear His voice.

Weekly Memory Verses: Psalms 23:1-6
Psalms 23:1 A Psalm of David.>> The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
