THE REAL REASON! – Luke 10:20 Devotional

THE REAL REASON!

Luke 10:20 – Devotional

Luke 10:20

“Rejoice that your name is written in heaven.”

Think back about the times when you felt that a miracle had taken place in your life. In fact, just remember the times when you rejoiced because God had protected you as you made a long journey with no accidents or incidents.

Certainly we are to rejoice in all things, but as I read this passage in Luke 10, I am wondering if we focus too much attention on specific answers to prayer. If we see God at work in a particular situation, we jump and shout for joy. But if we do not experience that same sort of answer we tend to ignore God’s blessings.

Jesus is tells His followers the real reason for us to rejoice is that we have our name written in heaven. Our most fantastic blessing is that we receive eternal life the moment we’re born again. We experience another great blessing when we share our faith with someone who opens their heart to the Lord.

There are times we witness to someone and feel them reject our testimony. It no doubt causes us to feel discouraged. Days, weeks, months, even years later and thousands of miles away, that person can feel the tug of the Holy Spirit and remember what we shared with them. Only eternity will reveal the fruit of our faithful ministry. Hang in there, faithful believer. Weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes in the morning! Praise the Lord!

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

DAY BY DAY! – Deuteronomy 33:25 Devotional

by | Aug 8, 2025 | Deuteronomy

DAY BY DAY!

Deuteronomy 33:25 – Devotional

Deuteronomy 33:25

“. . . as thy days, so shall thy strength be.”

DAY BY DAY — Lyrics by Lina Sandell

Day by day, and with each passing moment,
Strength I find to meet my trials here;
Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment,
I’ve no cause for worry or for fear.
He, whose heart is kind beyond all measure,
Gives unto each day what He deems best,
Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure,
Mingling toil with peace and rest.

Every day the Lord Himself is near me,
With a special mercy for each hour;
All my cares He fain would bear and cheer me,
He whose name is Counsellor and Pow’r.
The protection of His child and treasure
Is a charge that on Himself He laid;
“As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,”
This the pledge to me He made.

Help me then, in every tribulation,
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation,
Offered me within Thy holy Word.
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,
E’er to take, as from a father’s hand,
One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,
Till with Christ the Lord I stand.

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

LET GOD BE MAGNIFIED! – Psalm 70:4 Devotional

by | Aug 7, 2025 | Psalm

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

LET GOD BE MAGNIFIED!

Psalm 70:4 – Devotional

Psalm 70:4

“Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You: and let all who love Your salvation say continually, ‘Let God be magnified.’”

I am not blessed with a scientific mind, but I do a sliver of understanding that the qualities of glass, shaped, ground, and polished enable it to become a tool to view distant objects up close, or minute objects magnified dramatically.

The Word of God may be understood as God’s gift to us that allows us to view Him magnified more and more. If we fail to use His Divinely inspired Word to see Him magnified, we are left with limited sight.

Sometimes I reflect upon the precious work that biblical translators have done across the centuries of time. They have labored hour after hour in order for us to be able to view God’s Word for us in clarity and magnification.

I want to be one who takes advantage of the precious result of these faithful servants of the Lord who give us a clear view into the WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE!

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