Consecration Simply Defined

Consecration is simply a matter of letting God have what He has paid for, or returning stolen property. -- Mrs. Chas. Cowman

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (NIV) -- (19) Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, Who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; (20) you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.

Jesus, You paid it all. All to You I owe. Let me live my life not only claiming "You are mine" but also declaring "I am Yours". In Your wonderful name, Jesus. Amen.

IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.

Have Mercy

The word "mercy" is on my mind today. Here's what the dictionary gives us for the word "mercy":

"mer·cy" Pronunciation: \ˈmər-sē\ Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural mercies
Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French merci, from Medieval Latin merced-, merces, from Latin, price paid, wages, from merc-, merx merchandise; Date: 13th century
(1) a : compassion or forbearance shown especially to an offender or to one subject to one's power; also : lenient or compassionate treatment b : imprisonment rather than death imposed as penalty for first-degree murder
(2) a : a blessing that is an act of divine favor or compassion b : a fortunate circumstance
(3) : compassionate treatment of those in distress

This song is also quite loud in my heart today:

Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy.
Lord have mercy on me...

Psalm 119:41a (NKJV) -- Let Your mercies come also to me, O Lord...

ALL JOY!
