April 27, 2019 God is not the God of the Dead!!!

Reading: Deuteronomy 18-20, 2 Corinthians 12, and Mark 12

Scripture: Mark 12:26-27, And as for the dead being raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God spoke to him, saying, 'I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'? He is not God of the dead, but of the living. You are quite wrong."

Thoughts: So often if you have grown up in the church we have this tendency to revert to the stance of that is who God was or some other way of saying that same sort of thing. That reminder that God is not just sitting in heaven looking down on us or only worked through long dead people whom we never met. He will meet us where we are but his love is too great to leave us there.

Prayer: Father I love you and thank you that I can come into your presence and seek your face. I thank you for you provision and blessings that you pour out on us each day and the leading you have for us. I ask that you help us to continually seek you and place ourselves in a position to received all you have to pour out on us.
