Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.3 John 1:2 KJV |

I love 3 John 1:2 because it shows the “true heart of God” for us. When Jesus first led me to this scripture; I remember I was so excited. Excited because I always saw God as a harsh, abrasive fault finding God who did not love me but yet, held my forever future life after death; in the palm of His hand. The torment and fear were a constant reminder of what I had to look forward to. It would fill my days with fear and sorrow. but now…we know the truth! Look at 3 John 1:2 out of the Amplified.
3 John 1:2 AMPC
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and that your body may keep well, even as I know your soul keeps well and prospers.
It says, “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way. As our souls (mind, will & emotions) prosper.” God wants our prosperity and health to prosper also. He wants us to enjoy “wholeness” of life, nothing missing and nothing broken. Expect it and don’t settle for anything less.

Thought for the Week |
God wants me to prosper in every way!
IF YOU HAVEN’T ACCEPTED JESUS YET: How Do I Get Saved? Salvation is a gift from God, and comes through believing in Jesus and Jesus alone. In John 14:6, the Bible tells us very clearly that Christ is the only way to God and eternal life, and in Romans 10:9–11, the Bible tells us how to be saved and have eternal life: Believe in our hearts that Jesus died for our sins and was raised from the grave, and confess with our mouths that He is our Lord and Savior. John 14:6 states: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (KJV) Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. To accept Jesus Christ into your life and be saved, please say this prayer of salvation. “Heavenly Father, thank You for Your love for me and for sending Jesus Christ to die on the cross for all my sins. His precious blood washes me clean. You raised Him from the dead. He’s alive today and I thank You that all my sins are forgiven. I’m made righteous by Jesus’ blood. God’s favor is upon me and I thank you Father that surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life from this day forth. In Jesus’ name, Amen.” |
