Saving the Lost at ANY Cost
STL RESTORATION CHURCH - Bishop Johnny L. & 1st Lady Donna Bell

Focus Scripture for 07.06.25 - 07.13.25
Nahum 1:3 (NLT Version)
3 The Lord is slow to get angry, but his power is great, and he never lets the guilty go unpunished. He displays his power in the whirlwind and the storm. The billowing clouds are the dust beneath his feet.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Psalm 100 (New King James Version)
1 Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! 2 Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before His presence with singing.3 Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.4Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him and bless His name. 5 For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations.
In the middle of our busy daily lives, let’s remember to praise the Lord and serve Him with gladness. Of course, we should come into His presence in the Sanctuary with joy in our hearts. But when we leave the sanctuary remember that we never leave his Presence. We should always bless God for being our Creator, and even more so because He has made us His people. We are the sheep of His pasture. During the day, let us give God thanksgiving and praise, for the Lord is good! His mercy is everlasting! His truth does endure to all generations! This week let’s embrace each day with gratitude and joy, knowing that we are cherished and guided by His everlasting love.
Let’s never get “too busy” to thank and praise God!
