“Through Him, all things were made; without Him, nothing was made that has been made… For in Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through Him and for Him…
But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish in the sea inform you. Which of all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this?
In His hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind…So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God He created them; male and female, He created them…And God saw all that He had made, and it was very good.”
John 1:3; Colossians 1:16; Job 12:7-10; Genesis 1:27,30
Bible verses about God’s amazing love
Pay close attention.
Anyone who tells you that you are worthless is a liar.
God doesn’t make worthless.
He makes a treasure.
And you are one of His favorite treasures.
The world will whisper over and over how you don’t measure up … that if only this and if only that and “…do this, do that, a rule for this, a rule for that; a little here, a little there…” Isaiah 28:10
Don’t listen to the world.
Smile and turn your head to God.
Hear Him!
You are a treasure beyond human words!
Your turn…
Know and believe this,
“And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.” Romans 5:5
Come and joyfully pray …
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands…The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of His unfailing love…Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it.
Indeed, let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them; and, let all the trees of the forest sing for joy…Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights above. And, praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His heavenly hosts. Also, praise Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all you shining stars.
Praise Him, you highest heavens and you waters above the skies. Let them praise the Name of the LORD, for at His command they were created, and He established them forever and ever—He issued a decree that will never pass away.”
Psalm 19:1,33:5,96:11-12, 148:1-6

How to do this as a weekly Bible study
Day One: Experience
Read the entire devotion. Do any verses stand out to you? If so, write it down and work on memorizing it over the week. I personally love the app “Scripture Typer.”
Day Two: Observe & Read
Chain. Look up and chain verses (For example on how to chain verses, see this video).
Day Three: Interpret
Read through the chain of verses starting with the first one. What do they say? Do you notice when it says “never” or “always” or “If, but, however, therefore, all…..”
Day Four: Application
Do “Your turn” and make a list of people that God has put on your heart when you read this.
Day Five: Testify
Who in your life, right now, can you share this with? There is somebody in your life that needs to hear this. Close your eyes. What name came to mind?
Would you like to get more involved in the beLydia Movement?
Parents and friends, there are kids being sold for sex right now and they are still going to school and their parents have no idea.
They are being tricked, (often through social media and texting apps) into sharing compromising photos and then trapped into selling more or are tricked into having sex.
WE CAN PREVENT THIS THROUGH SHARING AWARENESS.
