I am God's Own Possession

 

But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.

1 Peter 2:9 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/1pe.2.9.NLT

I have to remember that I'm God's possession and show other people the goodness of God through how I live.

God Chose You and Gives You Peace

 

God the Father knew you and chose you long ago, and his Spirit has made you holy. As a result, you have obeyed him and have been cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ. May God give you more and more grace and peace.

1 Peter 1:2 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/1pe.1.2.NLT

God chose me and gives me grace and peace in my life.  I will obey Jesus and Holy Spirit has made me Holy.  

Do What Pleases God

And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.

1 John 2:17 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/1jn.2.17.NLT

I need to do what pleases God and remember that this world is fading away and focus on God rather than the world.

Because You Believed, It Has Happened

 

Then Jesus said to the Roman officer, “Go back home. Because you believed, it has happened.” And the young servant was healed that same hour.

Matthew 8:13 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/mat.8.13.NLT

I thank God for healing my eyes.  I believe that He will heal my eyes.

Keep My Pure Devotion to Christ

 

But I fear that somehow your pure and undivided devotion to Christ will be corrupted, just as Eve was deceived by the cunning ways of the serpent. You happily put up with whatever anyone tells you, even if they preach a different Jesus than the one we preach, or a different kind of Spirit than the one you received, or a different kind of gospel than the one you believed.
2 Corinthians 11:3‭-‬4 NLT
https://bible.com/bible/116/2co.11.3-4.NLT

I need to keep my pure devotion to Christ and not listen to anyone that preaches a different Jesus than the one of the Gospel and not listen to a different kind of Spirit than the Holy Spirit.  I need to keep Jesus first in my life.

Fix My Gaze on What Cannot Be Seen

So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.

2 Corinthians 4:18 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/2co.4.18.NLT

I need to focus on Jesus and not things of this world.  He needs to be my highest priority.  He needs to be first in my life.

People Praise God For Miracles

 

When he reached the place where the road started down the Mount of Olives, all of his followers began to shout and sing as they walked along, praising God for all the wonderful miracles they had seen.

Luke 19:37 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/luk.19.37.NLT

I will praise and thank God for the miracles He's done in my life and I will praise him for healing my right eye.
