BE ALERT! – Mark 13:33 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

BE ALERT!

Mark 13:33 –  Devotional

Mark 13:33

“Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come.”

One of the major elements in defending against aggression is being on alert at all times. I can still recall the long night hours when I was on alert for any sign of threat to our nation. Thankfully we were never attacked, but there were many simulated threats to insure our readiness to react.

When you are wide awake and expectant it is much easier to react quickly and appropriately. When the night hours slip by and your eyes feel like they are filled with sand, it is necessary to react in a professional manner that comes from long hours of training.

In our spiritual walk we never know when the enemy will mount an attack. We can almost be certain that this attack will occur when we are weary and worn. If we have not spent the time in self examination, prayer, and Bible study, we will be very vulnerable to the attack.

There is one thing we can be sure about—we will meet our Lord face to face. It may be at the moment our eyes close in death or it may be when the trumpet sounds and we are called up to meet the Lord in the air. Either way, we must be on the alert with our lamps burning bright. Are you on the alert?!

Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!

HE ENABLES US! – 1 Timothy 1:12 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

HE ENABLES US!

1 Timothy 1:12​ –  Devotional

1 Timothy 1:12

“And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry.”

It was many years ago that I felt the call of the Lord to preach the Good News of the gospel. At the time of my call I was not aware of the many ways the Lord would use me as a minister of the gospel. All I had to do was to follow!

Through education and plowing through ordeal after ordeal I came to learn that it was always best to simply trust in the Lord’s leadership. I must hasten to add that it is far easier to say than to do.

That being said, many of us have discovered that it is always best to simply trust and follow the Lord rather than to barge ahead and then humbly come to Him after we make a mess of things.

I praise God that through over sixty years of ministry He still is the guiding force in my life and ministry. I have no plans to retire and trust in the Lord to enable me to serve to the end! PRAISE THE LORD!

Blessings dear heart! Walk with God today and be a blessing!

I TRUST IN HIM! – Proverbs 3:5-6 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

I TRUST IN HIM!

Proverbs 3:5-6​ –  Devotional

Proverbs 3:5-6​

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”

There is an old joke that I heard years ago. It seems that a chicken and a pig were discussing what they could do to show their appreciation to farmer Brown. The chicken suggested that they should honor him by providing a breakfast of ham and eggs. The pig snorted that for the chicken it would just be giving an offering — for him it would be a total commitment.

What a silly story… yet it becomes all too appropriate when we relate it to our spiritual walk with the Lord. There are many Christians who are satisfied with only giving a token offering. They do not want to be associated with those they consider to be wild eyed religious fanatics.

As I study the lives of the Old Testament and New Testament saints, I find that they were far sighted and solid in faith. They looked beyond the frothy things of this world and saw the reality of eternity with the Lord.

In today’s Scripture, we have a road map for our life. When we place our complete trust in the Lord we have the confident assurance that He will direct our paths. I choose to have the Lord of the universe direct my life. I trust in Him!

Blessings dear heart! Walk with God today and be a blessing!
