WALK IN HIS LIGHT! – 1 John 1:7 Devotional

WALK IN HIS LIGHT​​!

1 John 1:7 – Devotional

1 John 1:7

“If we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.“

Some people have better night vision than others. I am told it has to do with rods in the retina. I guess my night vision is fairly good, though I am not sure how you are able to compare it with the average … but I do not stumble too often. As a teen I did stumble a few times when I came in after a date with Joyce and did not want to turn on the lights. Mom had a habit of re-arranging furniture!

As a police officer I frequently had to enter dark buildings that had been found unlocked. With only a flashlight to illuminate large warehouse areas, it was vital to only walk in the beam of light.

Jesus is the Light of the World. In order to insure we do not stray into dangerous territory, we must follow in the light of His word. There are people who try to tell us to follow them, but that can lead to great danger.

When we search the word of God and walk in its light, we will be able to stay on the right path and prevent falling into error. It will also lead us to the fellowship of others who are committed to walking in the light.

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

WE’LL UNDERSTAND IT BETTER BY AND BY! – 1 Corinthians 13:12 Devotional

by | Jun 7, 2024 | 1 Corinthians

Listen to Today's Evotional

WE’LL UNDERSTAND IT BETTER BY AND BY​​!

1 Corinthians 13:12 – Devotional

1 Corinthians 13:12

“For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.“

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Take a moment today to meditate on the lyrics to We’ll Understand It Better By and By (lyrics by Charles Albert Tindley):

We are often tossed and driv’n
on the restless sea of time,
somber skies and howling tempest
oft succeed a bright sunshine;
in that land of perfect day,
when the mists have rolled away,
we will understand it better by and by.

Refrain:
By and by, when the morning comes,
when the saints of God are gathered home,
we’ll tell the story,
how we’ve overcome,
for we’ll understand it better by and by.

We are often destitute
of the things that life demands,
want of food and want of shelter,
thirsty hills and barren lands;
we are trusting in the Lord,
and according to the Word,
we will understand it better by and by.

Refrain:
By and by, when the morning comes,
when the saints of God are gathered home,
we’ll tell the story,
how we’ve overcome,
for we’ll understand it better by and by.

Temptations, hidden snares,
often take us unawares,
and our hearts are made to bleed for
any thoughtless word or deed;
and we wonder why the test
when we try to do our best,
but we’ll understand it better by and by.

Refrain:
By and by, when the morning comes,
when the saints of God are gathered home,
we’ll tell the story,
how we’ve overcome,
for we’ll understand it better by and by.

OUR POWERFUL GOD! – Isaiah 41:10 Devotional

by | Jun 6, 2024 | Isaiah

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

OUR POWERFUL GOD​​!

Isaiah 41:10 – Devotional

Isaiah 41:10

“Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.“

Today’s verse is one of the first I ever memorized. I have leaned on it many times through the years. Come to think of it, my trust in this verse may very well be the reason that I can be more optimistic than pessimistic . . . and it is only the Lord that makes the difference.

God gives us a tremendous assurance in this verse. He promises to strengthen us, to help us, and to uphold us. Do you realize what that promise should mean to each of us in our daily walk? It means that we can claim victory over every situation.

As I study this verse again, I see that our requirement is very minimal. We are not called upon to do great and mighty works. We do not even have to possess super-human abilities.

So what is our part? To not fear and to not be dismayed. The reason our Scripture gives us for not fearing or not being dismayed is that God is with us and He is our own personal God. With such a powerful God in control, we are free to praise Him and give Him the glory even before we see His completed work.

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