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!

GOD’S SUPPLY! – Philippians 4:19 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

GOD’S SUPPLY!​

Philippians 4:19 – Devotional

Philippians 4:19

“But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”

During my teen years I worked for a milk processing plant. Since I was always the lowest man on the list, it was not uncommon to be sent to the supply depot and deliver whatever was needed to meet the needs of whichever department needed it.

If that makes you question what it was that I did, you are not alone. I often asked myself the same question. The easiest answer is that I simply tried to do what I was asked to do in the best and fastest way I knew how.

You know, as I think about it there has not been much change. I have come to understand that the best way for me to serve the Lord is to keep my ears open for His instructions for me to follow.

The times in my spiritual life that I encountered problems were the times I failed to do the Lord’s will, or that I hesitated (drug my feet) before reluctantly obeying. Oh, how much easier it is when we respond without delay! Lead on Lord Jesus!

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!

WE CAN TRUST IN GOD! – 2 Samuel 22:31 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

WE CAN TRUST IN GOD!​

2 Samuel 22:31 – Devotional

2 Samuel 22:31

“As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: He is a buckler to all them that trust in Him.”

The phrase; IN GOD WE TRUST, was officially adopted as the motto of the United States back in 1956. There has always been a conflict with the motto by opponents of anything spiritual. Atheists hate the very thought of yielding to the rule of God in the life of a nation.

Regardless of what the opponents of the Lord think or say, there is a truth that can never be denied: WE CAN TRUST IN GOD! We may not be able to trust in human bureaucracy, but God can always be trusted.

When we encounter the storms of life, be they personal or national, we have the assurance that God can always be trusted. In the past individuals, families, groups, and even nations have disappointed us, but the Lord has never failed us. We have all too often failed Him, but He always remains faithful and true!

As we go forth to live our life for Christ, let us determine from the very core of our being that we will trust in the Lord with everything. Hold nothing back and cast all of our cares and concerns on Him because we know that God not only cares for us, He is far bigger than our most troublesome concerns! WE CAN TRUST IN GOD!

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become 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!
