LIVING FOR CHRIST!

Philippians 1:21 – Devotional

Philippians 1:21

“As for me, I choose to live for Christ, and to die is to be with Him.”

I have heard and even preached sermons on living for Christ. Sadly I have seen many people make a miserable mess of their life by failing to follow through on this commitment. The lure of the world is like the siren’s call that inevitably leads to the rocks of destruction.

That leads me to ask the question: Whose call are you listening to? There are many temptations that surround us and in this era of modern media we seem to be swamped by the tempter’s call.

As a pastor I have listened to far too many broken hearted cries from good people who made tragic choices and found their lives ruined by the choices they had made.

The good news is that Christ did not die for good and noble people. He died for sinners and the Word tells us we are all sinners. We constantly need Him to cover our sinful self with His blood. It is only the shed blood of our Savior that rescues us from power of sin and death! Not what we do, but what He has done for us! To live for Christ is to receive eternal life!

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

TURN YOUR EYES UPON JESUS! – Hebrews 12:2 Devotional

by | Jun 27, 2025 | Hebrews

TURN YOUR EYES UPON JESUS!

Hebrews 12:2 – Devotional

Hebrews 12:2

“We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne.“

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

Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus | Helen H. Lemmel (1922)

O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

Through death into life everlasting
He passed, and we follow Him there;
O’er us sin no more hath dominion—
For more than conqu’rors we are!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

His Word shall not fail you—He promised;
Believe Him, and all will be well:
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

HANG ON WITH JOY! – Revelation 2:25 Devotional

by | Jun 26, 2025 | Revelation

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

HANG ON WITH JOY!

Revelation 2:25 – Devotional

Revelation 2:25

“Hold fast to what you have until I come.”

I fondly recall my days of youth when we all looked forward to snow and slick streets. Motorists dreaded these streets then as they still do in our day and age. One of the reasons the young people loved slick streets was hooky-bobbing. The adults frowned upon the practice, but tolerated the practice since they could recall when they did the same thing when they were young.

There were shrieks of laughter as we slid along the snow-packed streets for as long as possible. The ride generally took us only a block or so. Most motorists seemed to enjoy it as much as we did, but there were a few sour souls who vented their spleen on our fun-filled delight!

As I think on it I realize there are many people in today’s world who seem to take offense when the people of God enjoy the joy of their salvation. They seem to feel that the walk with the Lord should be filled with doom and gloom.

I take delight in breaking the bubble of such an attitude. Across the centuries the people of God have been the most joyous people on earth. Even those who have been persecuted have suffered with joy. Regardless of the trials you are going through right now – – HANG ON WITH JOY!

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