  • Omnipresent: God is everywhere.
  • Omnipotent: God has unlimited power.
  • Omniscient: God knows everything.

Ephesians 3:18-19 “And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.”

BECAUSE GOD IS ALL- LOVING

1. I CAN EXPERIENCE GOD’S LOVE personally

  • Even when I don’t feel God’s love

Romans 8:32 “Since God did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t God, who gave us Christ, also give us everything else?”

  • Even when I I don’t think I’m good enough.

Matthew 11:28-30 “Then Jesus said, ‘Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my Yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.’”

  • Even when I doubt

Matthew 28:17-19“ When they saw him, they worshiped him— but some of them doubted! Jesus came and told his disciples, ‘I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations.’”

BECAUSE GOD IS ALL-LOVING

II. I CAN invite others TO EXPERIENCE GOD’S LOVE

Colossians 4:2-4 “Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart. Pray for us, too, that God will give us many opportunities to speak about his mysterious plan concerning Christ… Pray that I will proclaim this message as clearly as I should.”

Memory Verse: 1 Timothy 2:4 “God wants everyone to be saved and to know the whole truth.”

Omnipresent: God is everywhere.

Omniscient: God God knows everything

Psalm 139:1-6 “O Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me. You know when I sit down or stand up. You know my every thought when far away. You chart the path ahead of me and tell me where to stop and rest. Every moment you know where I am. You know what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord. You bothprecede and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to know!

BECAUSE GOD IS ALL-KNOWING

  • I CAN TRUST GOD WITH MY FUTURE

Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the LORD. ‘They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.’”

Genesis 17:16-19 “(God) ‘I will bless her and give you a son from her! Yes, I will bless her richly, and she will become the mother of many nations. Kings will be among her descendants!’ Then Abraham bowed down to the ground, but he laughed to himself in disbelief. ‘How could I become a father at the age of one hundred?’ he wondered. ‘Besides, Sarah is ninety; how could she have a baby?’ ...But God replied, ‘Sarah, your wife , will bear you a son. You will name him Isaac, and I will confirm my everlasting covenant with him and his descendants.’”

My response: TO RELAX COMPLETELY

  • I TRUST GOD WITH MY PRESENT

Matthew 8:23-27 “Then Jesus got into the boat and started across the lake withhis disciples. Suddenly, a terrible storm came up, with waves breaking into the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went to him and woke him up, shouting, ‘Lord, save us! We're going to drown!’ And Jesus answered, ‘Why are you afraid? You have so little faith! Then he stood up and rebuked the wind and waves, and suddenly all was calm. The disciples just sat there in awe. ‘Who is this?’ they asked themselves. ‘Even the wind and waves obey him!’” Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will direct your paths.”

  • My response: TO RECOMMIT DAILY

BECAUSE GOD IS ALL-KNOWING

  • I CAN TRUST GOD WITH MY PAST

Luke 15:17-24 “When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, At home even the hired men have food enough to spare, and here I am, dying of hunger! I will go home to my father and say, “Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired man.”’ So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long distance away, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.’ But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger, and sandals for his feet. And kill the calf we have been fattening in the pen. We must celebrate with a feast, for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began.”

My response: TO REPENT SINCERELY

Memory Verse: Jeremiah 31:34 “And I will forgive their wickedness and will never again remember their sins.”
