I AM THINE, O LORD​​! – Hebrews 10:22 Devotional

I AM THINE, O LORD​​!

Hebrews 10:22 – Devotional

Hebrews 10:22

“Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.“

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

I am Thine, O Lord is one of many hymns written by Fanny Crosby, a prolific American hymn writer. The melody was composed by William Howard Doane.

The former was talking with the latter one night about the proximity of God and penned the words before retiring for the night. Hebrews 10:22 is also reported as being a source of inspiration for the hymn: “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.”

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

I Am Thine, O Lord

I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee.

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
By the power of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

O the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God
I commune as friend with friend!

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

There are depths of love that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

WE ARE SPECIOUS! – Ephesians 2:10 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

WE ARE SPECIOUS!

Ephesians 2:10 – Devotional

Ephesians 2:10

“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.”

There is no such word as specious but it rings with sweet memory in my mind. It goes way back when our grandson, Jeremiah was just learning to talk. My wife, Joyce, had been telling Jeremiah that he was special and that he was also precious. Jeremiah grinned and said; “I am specious!”

I think it is accurate (if not grammatically correct) to say that in God’s sight we are indeed; SPECIOUS! Worldly people may mock us and be-little us because of our walk with the Lord, but we need to remind ourselves of the heroes of the faith who have endured mockery, abuse, torture, and even death for the sake of Christ. They were specious!

God has never promised His followers an easy or pleasant life. In fact He has told us to expect to be reviled, persecuted, and rejected. In response to this treatment we are to rejoice and be exceedingly happy. Why? Because we are God’s specious people!

Go out into the world and let your light so shine, that people will be lifted from their pit of despair into the reality that God offers anyone who will to come to Him and be made specious by His saving grace!

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!

HE IS WITH US! – Isaiah 41:10 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

HE IS WITH US!

Isaiah 41:10 – Devotional

Isaiah 41:10

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”

Yesterday I received an email from a friend I met over 50 years ago. We met in St. Anthony, Newfoundland, where I served in the US Air Force and he served in the local hospital. Roy met a nurse named Jean and they immediately felt that God was drawing them together. Several years after I returned to the States they were married and had a family.

In his message, Roy informed me that Jean had slipped the bonds of this old world and gone to be with the Lord. In the days preceding her death Jean said she had seen the face of Jesus twice. Wow! There need not be any fear of death! What comfort to know that the suffering of this world is nothing knowing that our Savior is waiting for us on the other side.

I have imagined the meeting that took place in Paradise when Jean and my Joyce met for the first time, yet knew each other as if they were sisters. Actually they were sisters in the Lord. We have a wonderful family that we will spend eternity with and some we will meet for the first time when we leave this world. Jesus is with us and will be there to welcome us home! We need never fear death.

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!
