GOD’S DEPENDABLE PEOPLE! – Isaiah 29:13 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

GOD’S DEPENDABLE PEOPLE!

Isaiah 29:13 – Devotional

Isaiah 29:13

“These people come near to Me with their mouth and honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me. Their worship of Me is made up only of rules taught by men.”

It seems that in our modern world, people are searching for someone who will be faithful regardless of the circumstances. It seems that such dependable people are becoming harder and harder to find.

If that is true for our relationships, think about what God is confronted with. Sadly God has many wishy-washy believers who are more interested in their own welfare than in faithfully serving Him. Their attitude seems to be: “What’s in it for me?”

In today’s Scripture, Isaiah, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit writes about such double-minded people. They talk a good talk, but when it comes to putting their life on the line for the Lord, they fall short.

God wants followers who are willing to put their life on the line. A few days before the family was arrested by the Gestapo for hiding Jews, Corrie Ten Boom’s father commented; “If I am arrested for working to rescue God’s people, I would count it an honor.” That is the kind of reality I want in my life!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!

GRACE AND PEACE! – Philippians 1:2 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

GRACE AND PEACE!

Philippians 1:2 – Devotional

Philippians 1:2

“Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”

In a world that increasingly is filled with turmoil, strife and blatant sinfulness, we need to discover a place in which to amerce ourselves in that which is sacred and holy. That place is in the sure haven of God’s Word.

It seems that celebrates in our modern culture feel that they are the ones determining our acceptable conduct. That conduct is increasingly crude and an affront to what God desires for His people.

I may seem to be a prude, but I refuse to spend my time watching the godless programs that the major networks spew into the world. Whether I am labeled a prude or not does not matter one iota to me. I would rather have the peace of God than anything this world can offer.

I want to always be remembered as a simple servant of the Lord who was used in a simple way to simply hold fast to the never changing Word of the Lord. Heaven and earth may pass away, but the Word of God is always the same; yesterday, today and forever!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!

GOD’S (IF) CONDITIONS! – Leviticus 26:12 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

GOD’S (IF) CONDITIONS!

Leviticus 26:12 – Devotional

Leviticus 26:12

“I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you will be My people.”

All too often we read the promises of God and neglect the conditions that He gives us in order to receive the promises. Like excited children at the sight of candy, we jump up and down in anticipation without considering the conditions.

Leviticus 26:3 provides the conditions that must be met before we can count on the promised reward. “If you walk in My statutes, and keep My commandments, and do them.”

If we walk the aisles of a grocery store and fill our basket with various items, we know that there will come a moment when we stand at the checkout stand and are presented with the cost of our selections.

As we walk the pathways of life we also are making selections. Some may be small and look insignificant, but at the checkout counter we realize the cost is greater than we anticipated. It is then that we feel a hand on our shoulders and a sweet voice in our ear; “I have paid the price! Go in peace!” Wow! What a wonderful God we serve! He does not give us what we deserve, but what we need!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!

WHAT REALLY MATTERS? – Philippians 3:7 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

WHAT REALLY MATTERS?

Philippians 3:7 – Devotional

Philippians 3:7

“But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ.”

There are many burial sites in Egypt left by the former mighty rulers of that ancient nation. Most of these self-proclaimed gods or goddesses wanted to be buried with masses of gold and precious stones that were meant to provide for their afterlife. In the majority of cases, however, tomb robbers discovered the burial sites and plundered everything of value.

We may shake our heads at the foolish idea that we can take anything with us when we depart this life. In Job 1:21 that righteous man gives us wonderful words of wisdom: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return there.”

Jesus shared the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, and we see that the rich man had absolutely nothing of this world’s goods with him — not even a drop of cool water. That should warn us against relying on the things of this world.

What should really capture our efforts are the things that will last for eternity. The more we devote ourselves to the things of God, the more we will find the love and joy He promises to His children that He cherishes. That is what really matters!

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