OUR REASON FOR COURAGE! – Isaiah 41:10b Devotional

OUR REASON FOR COURAGE!

Isaiah 41:10b – Devotional

Isaiah 41:10b

“I will strengthen you, help you, and hold you up with My righteous right hand.”

There are times when we seem to lack strength and power to overcome some of the obstacles in our life. I am at the age where tasks that seemed to require little or no effort, become major tasks. Are you able to relate to that yet? You will!

Over fifty years ago when I was stationed with the US Air Force in St. Anthony, Newfoundland, I used to listen to the radio stations on the Island. They had a unique way of assisting listeners. People would forward messages to the radio station for family and friends in far away communities. I did not know the people involved, but it reminded that we all have needs and we all need others in our life.

Who do we know who needs a call to give encouragement and just to let them know we are thinking of them and praying for them? Our call or letter might be the bright light they need in this sin darkened world!

Our reason for courage to help others is the eternal help Christ has extended to us by His eternal sacrifice. That is news that is worthy to be sent out into a world that needs help and hope today!

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

REDEEMED! – 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Devotional

by | Jul 18, 2025 | 1 Corinthians

REDEEMED!

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 – Devotional

1 Corinthians 6:19-20

“Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit.“

In 1969 the U.S. Embassy in Iran was overpowered and the Americans inside were held hostage for 444 days. They lived in terror for over a year not knowing if they would live to see another day, be it prisoner or free. They were finally redeemed and allowed to go free, but what scars they carried with them into freedom!

Forgetting that particular incident and thinking of our redemption from sin, what is the worth of the human soul? The Lord Jesus paid the price for our redemption, and I am so grateful that we have been set free from the penalty of sin!

The writer of this hymn, Fanny Crosby, was eagerly looking forward to that day when her Redeemer would appear and her blinded eyes would be opened and she would behold the most beautiful sight she could ever imagine—Jesus!

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

REDEEMED

(1) Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it!
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed through His infinite mercy,
His child and forever I am.

REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
His child and forever I am.

(2) Redeemed, and so happy in Jesus,
No language my rapture can tell;
I know that the light of His presence,
With me doth continually dwell.

REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
His child and forever I am.

(3) I think of my blessed Redeemer,
I think of Him all the day long:
I sing, for I cannot be silent;
His love is the theme of my song.

REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
His child and forever I am.

(4) I know I shall see in His beauty,
The King in whose law I delight;
Who lovingly guardeth my footsteps,
And giveth me songs in the night.

REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
His child and forever I am.

(5) I know there’s a crown that is waiting,
In yonder bright mansion for me,
And soon, with the spirits made perfect,
At home with the Lord I shall be.

REFRAIN: Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
His child and forever I am.

OUR JOYOUS FOREVER! – Luke 18:43a Devotional

by | Jul 17, 2025 | Luke

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

OUR JOYOUS FOREVER!

Luke 18:43a – Devotional

Luke 18:43a

“Immediately he received his sight and followed Christ with great joy.”

The modern day media seems to delight more in the gory details of the news than in the bits of good news that can be found. Perhaps it is because it is harder to find, but more likely is that it will not be popular with the viewers.

Many of us have experienced the loss of loved ones and friends. I personally have encountered the valley of the shadow of death in the passing of my parents, my precious wife, my two and daughters, my brother, as well as many other friends and family members.

In this life we are certain to encounter losses. What we hold on so tightly today can be lost in a moment of time. To believe that things will remain the same as they are today is to deceive ourselves.

The things of this world pass quickly, but the Bible gives us the assurance that those dear ones who knew the Lord on this earth are not lost, but have only entered into the paradise of God where there will never be any loss. I am encouraged by the assurance that we will see them again, and then it will be forever!

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