Jesus was a perfect example of following authority. He was subject to His earthly parents; he subjected himself to the laws of the land, and as God, he had the power not to do any of it.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Jesus was humble when He walked this earth. He had all power, yet used all meekness.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Jesus is not only the Son of God, but He is God Himself. Having all power in His hands, He laid down His life for people who deserved God's justice, not His mercy.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
God knows and sees all. His wisdom and knowledge far outweighs mankind, and whether or not people ever recognize it - He is the creator. He is the giver of life, and only He has the power to take it away. That's why its imperative to submit to Him.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
I often think about Christ having all power, but He abdicated the power to live a sacrificial life for His children. In His own words he told his disciples that His meat was to do the will of the Father.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
As you submit to God more and more, you will get accustomed to being nourished by the power of truth. He is so holy that He cannot lie. God reveals His truth to His people through the Holy Spirit.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
There is no need to be longwinded as a pastor, but there is a difference between being longwinded and preaching for a long time. Preachers should be conscious of time because God does everything in decency and order; nonetheless, God's word is not on the clock!
Quote by -Monica Johnson
You don't see many people crying over the wrong they do to God every time His word is neglected or when one willfully sins.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Undoubtedly, the most important thing to remember is your time is not your own. Yes, we live in a time when people believe that you can and you should do exactly what you want, but all time belongs to God. So make sure your time is first dedicated to getting His work accomplished.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Christians need a time and place to sanctify themselves. It's important to take the time, and early in the morning is a wonderful time to do it.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
There was a time, in the not so distant past, that if you didn't have what you needed on Thanksgiving, you were pretty much going to have to wait until Friday. Not anymore!
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Singles have goals, responsibilities, deadlines, events, and friends that occupy their time, as well they should. Nonetheless, before any goals are achieved, responsibilities are fulfilled, deadlines are met, events are attended or friends are visited, God's purpose should be accomplished.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Jesus' love for His children continues to be the greatest love story of all time.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
God is being taken out of schools; children are not being raised in church learning the word; many parents are living lives unto themselves, exalting substance rather than Jesus Christ, and those looking for answers are going to church and finding the word is not being preached. There are consequences to these decisions.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
The lusts of this world leads us to fulfill our carnal need to be accepted, but as children of God we are already accepted by a Heavenly Father who is over and above all things.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Christian children should be taught at an early age that everything they receive is because of God's grace and love. They will grow up more appreciative and begin to understand that they, too, must have a relationship with Christ. Christian children should also be taught how to give.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
God has given His children a love that is so great in Christ that the world can't touch it with chocolates, roses, or diamonds.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Jesus' sinless life was given as a gift to the world - the ultimate gift. Some would receive Him, and others wouldn't. Nonetheless, He continues to be our gift, and His life and death makes it possible for His children to receive eternal life with Him. That's a reason to give God glory.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Jesus' love for His children continues to be the greatest love story of all time.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
God doesn't make things difficult for us. Do you want to know what the truth is? Look in the Bible, and you'll see that Jesus describes Himself not only as the truth, but the way and the life as well.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
A nation that turns it back on Christ and God's words of truth will inevitably regret it.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Flesh will not stand in front of God, so all the decisions you make from your flesh will be paid for with your soul. Your flesh rejects the truth because it desires to do what it wants to do.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
The truth doesn't lie. It's up in your face. It's in your conscience. It challenges your very being with the intention of cleaning you of sin and its influence.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Being afraid to tell the truth because of the projected consequences, whatever it may be, shows a lack of faith and an abundance of fear.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
It seems, by today's standards, that it's better to seek approval than to tell the truth. It's better to utter sweet nothings than to boldly say something of substance.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
You recognize the truth because sometimes it's hard to swallow, but if you hold it in your mouth, refusing to eat it, you are going to choke.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
As you submit to God more and more, you will get accustomed to being nourished by the power of truth. He is so holy that He cannot lie. God reveals His truth to His people through the Holy Spirit.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
A Christian's celebration of Christmas should be a lot different from that of nonbelievers.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
There is a lot to celebrate about that little Babe who was laid in a manger. Christians celebrate Christmas because they are thankful for the promise of salvation, which was delivered in human flesh and named Jesus.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
It's funny how we 'do' Christmas. Christmas is not something that we do, it is something that was done. It celebrates the long awaited arrival of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. We had nothing to do with it, but what we can do is praise God for the coming of the Lord, who washed away the sins of the world by dying on the cross.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Christmas is a Christian holiday, and any self-respecting person of another religion should not celebrate a holiday that they don't believe in. Clearly, Christ is in the name of the holiday, so there should be a belief in Him.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
During the holiday season, Christmas specifically, it can be hard to be away from family and friends.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Giving is a really big thing around Christmas, as well it should be. Christmas is about giving, and it all stems from the greatest gift the world has ever received - the gift of Jesus Christ.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
The word of God is very important to Christmas. For unto us a child was born, and we should be reminded of how Christ's amazing journey came to be.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
I'm not going to tell you to meditate on what Christmas really means and be thankful.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
No holiday, no job, no amount of money, not even my own security can mean more to me than my love for God.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Christian children should be taught at an early age that everything they receive is because of God's grace and love. They will grow up more appreciative and begin to understand that they, too, must have a relationship with Christ. Christian children should also be taught how to give.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
God has given His children a love that is so great in Christ that the world can't touch it with chocolates, roses, or diamonds.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
When you are submitted and committed to the Lord, you will look forward to Jesus coming back, and not even an earthquake or Hurricane Irene will be able to shake you from the love of Christ.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Fixate your love on Him, be obedient to God's word, and don't seek the glory of this world. In doing these things, God will exalt you in this earth and you won't have to sacrifice your soul for earthly crowns that will fade.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
Jesus' love for His children continues to be the greatest love story of all time.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
True love does not only encompass the things that make you feel good, it also holds you to a standard of accountability.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
There's no way to get around the fact that Jesus is the only way to Heaven, and He is so good that He exchanged His place in Heaven to come suffer on a cross for humanity and rose to set us free from eternal life in Hell.
Quote by -Monica Johnson
No one is guaranteed their next moment, or their next breath; yet, humanity has a habit of thinking of its existence on the earth as eternal. Those who are rooted and grounded in Christ know that life is just a vapor.
