God’s Great Gift of Love

from First15 Devotional · host First15

In today’s First15 podcast, we’re going to create space to talk about and receive God’s great gift of love. You and I were made to be loved by God. And until we make room to receive the unselfish, steadfast, tangible love of God, we’ll spend the rest of our lives striving, vying for affection from others. May striving cease today as we receive the lavish affection of our good and loving God. Our Scripture for today comes from 1 John 4:19, and today's worship is Child of Love by We The Kingdom.  -- Do you know your spiritual gifts? We have created a free test to help you discover your gifts! Spiritual gifts have been given to each of us by God to accomplish those purposes. When you learn where you're gifted, you will begin to see more opportunities to gladly fulfill his calling on your life.   Do you find yourself grappling with these thoughts? I don't know my spiritual gifts. I don't know where to serve. I feel led to serve in a different capacity than I am now. How can I know for sure that God has gifted me in certain areas? Is there a particular way I have to use my gifts?   Our latest book, What Are My Spiritual Gifts? is the perfect resource to help you better understand your gifts. The book partners with a FREE spiritual gifts test.   Developed alongside our partner ministry, Denison Forum, the test and book are meant to open your eyes toward how God may want to use your unique gifts for the building up of the body of Christ.    Within the book, you'll learn more about 17 specific gifts and see examples from the Bible of people who lived out each gift. You can take the free test and learn more about the book at supportfirst15.org. https://first15.org/give/  https://first15.org/

Marathi Aarti Sangrah | मराठी आरती संग्रह Rajshri Entertainment Private Limited Aarti (आरती) is a devotional song sung to show devotion towards a deity and to Glorify a deity. Aarti is sung during Ritual of Aarti, in which flame is offered to deity. Aarti is a Hindi word and it is also spelled Arti, Arati or Arathi. The word Aarti is derived from the Sanskrit word Aratrika (आरात्रिक), which means something that removes darkness. शास्‍त्रों में बताया गया है कि आरती शब्द संस्कृत के आर्तिका शब्द से बना है। जिसका अर्थ है, अरिष्ट, विपत्ति, आपत्ति, कष्ट और क्लेश। भगवान की आरती को नीराजन भी कहा जाता है। नीराजन का अर्थ है किसी स्‍थान को विशेष रूप से प्रकाशित करना। शास्‍त्रों में बताए गए नियमों के अनुसार, आरती के इन्हीं दो अर्थों के आधार पर भगवान की आरती करने के दो कारण बताए गए हैं। MRE Podcast MRE Podcast This is a daily devotional podcast for those who want more of God's Word each day. I read the Word and share my insights from the Word. You might ask why do I do this? In the wilderness, the Israelites had to depend on daily mana from heaven to live. They couldn't eat yesterday's nor keep them for the next day. They always lived on the fresh mana each day. We also need to live by the fresh word of God each day. However, often we skip a meal and live on the past encounters with God. Someone of us gets too busy to eat or someone us do not know how or where to start. We need fresh encounters each day with the Lord so that the love of Christ will overflow to others. That's what I am doing, doing my quiet time and feasting and sharing the food with people. Join the Lord's table with me!
