HIGHER GROUND! – Philippians 3:14 Devotional

by | May 19, 2023 | Philippians

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

HIGHER GROUND​​!

Philippians 3:14​ – Devotional

Philippians 3:14

“I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

This week’s inspirational video devotional features scenes from Yellowstone National Park and the encouraging words of Johnson Oatman, Jr. in his hymn, Higher Ground.

HIGHER GROUND 

I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining ev’ry day;
Still praying as I’m onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;

A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught a joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

I want to scale the utmost height,
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

SEARCH ME LORD!​ – Psalm 139:23 Devotional

by | May 18, 2023 | Psalm

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

SEARCH ME LORD!

Psalm 139:23 – Devotional

Psalm 139:23

“Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my anxieties.“

During my years of service as a police officer I frequently had to search a subject to see if they had a concealed weapon or some type of contraband. When asked if they had such items it was common for the suspect to respond, “Search me!”

At home, when an item was mysteriously broken Joyce or I would ask who was guilty of breaking it. All too often we heard, “Search me?” I am sure that none of you had that experience with your kids. Right!!

Today’s Scripture is a heart-felt plea from the Psalmist David for the Lord to dig deep into his heart and expose the thoughts and intents that were hidden deep. It was David’s desire to discover his inner motivations so he could live his life in such a way that would be pleasing to God.

What is your personal motivation? Are you willing for the Lord to show you what is hidden deep within? Are there desires and motivations that are not pleasing to the Lord and prevent you from living a life of victory? Just be open and ask the Lord to search and show you your deepest need.

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

DELIGHT THE LORD!​ – 1 Samuel 15:22b Devotional

by | May 17, 2023 | 1 Samuel

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

DELIGHT THE LORD!

1 Samuel 15:22b – Devotional

1 Samuel 15:22b

“Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams.“

During the years of our marriage, I found great joy in doing things that would delight my sweet wife. Sure, Joyce enjoyed the typical gifts such as flowers or candy, but what brought her true delight was when I would straighten up around my area.

I have a tendency to create messes! It seems like I always have the notion that I may need something someday, so I just add it to the ever-growing pile of things on my desk or near my chair. Later, as I gaze at a particular item, I wonder why in the world I ever saved it. Joyce was right!

In those times when I bit the bullet and cleaned up my work area, it delighted her. I only wish she were still here so I could try to delight her once again! One of these days we will be together again, but until then I keep on delighting the Lord.

In today’s Scripture we read about what delights the Lord. It is not in what we try to give Him of our worldly possessions, but His delight is in our obedience to His word. When God says it we need to believe it and continue obeying. I want to please Him!

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