ETERNAL VALUE​!

Mark 8:36 – Devotional

Mark 8:36

“What value would it be if someone were to gain the whole world, yet sacrifice their own soul?”

Many prominent people seem to possess everything this world has to offer, yet end up lacking eternal value. People sometimes sacrifice their time and talent to gain notoriety only to end up hiding from that notoriety.

I recall the incident when an extremely wealthy man was asked how much money it would take for him to feel satisfied. His reply to that question was; “Just a little bit more!”

So what should we strive to accomplish in this crazy and self-centered world? It is certainly not the things that will rust, perish and fade away. Things will always fade, perish, and pass away. That is the reality of human existence.

Only as we come to the place of receiving eternal life through the precious blood of our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ, will we find eternal value. Eternal value can never be measured in this world’s currency. It far exceeds the value of anything that can be measured by monetary currency or human achievement. It is the value of eternal life with the Lord which Jesus paid for with His own blood!

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

BE SATISFIED​! – Isaiah 55:2 Devotional

by | Jun 24, 2026 | Isaiah

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

BE SATISFIED​!

Isaiah 55:2 – Devotional

Isaiah 55:2

“Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to Me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare.”

A while back, someone sent me a picture of homeless people in Haiti. Not only had they lost their home and all of their possessions, but some of their loved ones had suffered injuries with no way to treat them. Think of how little it would take to give them satisfaction.

I can recall some of the small houses we lived in when I was a boy. We were very satisfied with a house with good utilities and a roof over our head. As people moved into better and better houses, our family also upgraded our home.

Across the years I have associated with people who possessed the things of this world that they had paid a dear price for in the attempt to find true satisfaction. Do you want to know something? The material things of this world never brought the satisfaction they were seeking ― it never will!

The Lord calls us to dine at His table and find what will satisfy completely. Jesus was born in Bethlehem, which in Hebrew means “House of Bread.” How appropriate that He is the One who satisfies the hungering soul completely.

Here is what Jesus says in Matthew 11:28-30: “Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”  — Be satisfied today!

Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today, trust Him completely and be a blessing!

LOOKING BEYOND! – Job 19:25-27 Devotional

by | Jun 23, 2026 | Job

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

LOOKING BEYOND!

Job 19:25-27 – Devotional

Job 19:25-27

“I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; I myself will see Him with my own eyes—I, and not another. How my heart yearns within me!”

Many times it seems that people (me included) have a preoccupation with holding on to this life. It does not matter how much pain or how many trials we encounter, we act as if this vale of tears is the only thing that matters to us.

In the midst of his suffering and misery, Job was surrounded by men who had come to comfort him. A fat lot of comfort they afforded him. They erroneously concluded that if he was suffering the calamities that had befallen him, it must be the result of some secret sin in his life. His “friends” made it their goal to try and break through and have him confess his terrible secret sin.

Here in the middle of the book that bears his name, Job gives us words of confident assurance. It would be well for us to read these words in Job 19 on a regular basis and apply them to our own life.

As the Apostle Paul wrote in the first chapter of Philippians, it would be far better for him to be in heaven with Christ than to remain here on earth. It gave him the desire to live what time he had here on earth serving others by showing forth the spirit of the Lord. I desire to have that same purpose in my own life. If I remain alive, it is to serve Christ. If I die, it is to be with Christ. Either way, Christ is the focus of my life.

Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today, trust Him completely and be a blessing!

CONFIDENTLY FOLLOW GOD! – Isaiah 41:10 Devotional

by | Jun 22, 2026 | Isaiah

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

CONFIDENTLY FOLLOW GOD!

Isaiah 41:10 – Devotional

Isaiah 41:10

“Fear thou not, for I am with you: be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you, help you, and uphold with My righteous right hand.”

Isaiah 41:10 is a verse I memorized as a young boy. I cannot begin to tell you how many times across the years this verse has brought me through the tribulations and trials of this old sin-sick world.

In today’s world of GPS (Global Positioning System) technology, there is a voice that gives instructions of where to turn and how far to go, before giving us new directions of where to turn and how far to go. (I have known drivers that turn their GPS off just to silence that irritating voice). I come from a day and age where we learned to read maps.

When I worked as a milk man it was necessary to use a code to tell how many intersections to cross, when to turn left or right and which house was to receive the home delivery. I am a very old man and am not sure they still use that system, or for that matter if they still make home deliveries!

God gives us assurance that His voice will always strengthen, help, and uphold us as we obediently follow His Word and His way. All we need to do is to … FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS! Do not silence His voice.

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