AT THE CROSS! – Music Devotional

by | May 29, 2026 | Galatians

AT THE CROSS!

Music Devotional

Galatians 6:14

“But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ,
by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.”

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

This Friday we have a special treat for you. Russ Hansen has created a new song entitled, “At the Cross.” He would appreciate your feedback at inspiration@thegoodbookcompany.com.

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

At the Cross (lyrics Isaac Watts,1707, and Ralph E. Hudson, 1885)

[verse 1]
Alas, and did my Savior bleed?
And did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For such a worm as I?

[chorus]
At the cross, at the cross where
I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away,
It was there by faith I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day!

[verse 2]
Was it for sins that I had done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity! grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!

[chorus]
At the cross, at the cross where
I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away,
It was there by faith I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day!

[verse 3]
Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut His glories in,
When Christ, the mighty Maker, died
For man, His creature’s sin.

[chorus]
At the cross, at the cross where
I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away,
It was there by faith I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day!

[verse 4]
Thus might I hide my blushing face
While His dear cross appears.
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt mine eyes to tears.

[chorus]
At the cross, at the cross where
I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away,
It was there by faith I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day!

[verse 5]
But drops of grief can ne’er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away,
’Tis all that I can do.

[chorus]
At the cross, at the cross where
I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away,
It was there by faith I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day!

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

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

WHAT A VIEW! – Deuteronomy 34:1a Devotional

by | May 28, 2026 | Deuteronomy

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

WHAT A VIEW!

Deuteronomy 34:1a – Devotional

Deuteronomy 34:1a

“Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which is across from Jericho. And the Lord showed him all the land.”

Flying at night on a commuter airline is especially revealing. Washington is a fairly large state, but when climbing to a relatively low altitude, the lights of Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia, Portland, Tri-cities, Walla Walla, Yakima, Moses Lake, and Spokane are all clearly visible.  What a view!   

What about those who are blind?  I am always in awe of the things that blind people can “see” without the aid of eyesight.  Their perceptions are so keen that touch and sound enables them to “see” what sighted people may never see.  What a view!   

Isaiah was given keen spiritual sight when he wrote in Isaiah 64:4 —  “For since the beginning of the world men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You, who acts for the one who waits for Him.”

Now that is the view God wants us to see!  In the times of frustration and disappointment in this life, we need to recognize that the greatest views in this life are nothing. God has given us a new life that is in Him. We are new creations!  We have been born again when we invite the Lord into our heart. WHAT A VIEW!  

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

CHOOSE LIFE! – Deuteronomy 30:19a Devotional

by | May 27, 2026 | Deuteronomy

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

CHOOSE LIFE!

Deuteronomy 30:19a – Devotional

Deuteronomy 30:19a

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life.”

Many times I have sat near grieving individuals who have just experienced the loss of a loved one. In a few instances I have been the one to deliver the news of that loved one’s death.

At times I have heard statements to the effect that God needed another angel — and the deceased person was that angel. I am always compelled to debunk the false notion that we become angels when we die.

It always delights me to learn that the deceased person had received Jesus as their personal Savior. All too often, however, there is no indication that the deceased had ever received Christ as their personal Savior. Some have tried to paint a picture of salvation where there is no basis for that false hope.

In contrast to this false comfort are those who have made the choice to go God’s way. When believers close their eyes in death, they awaken to life everlasting. That is real comfort that is based upon the certainty of God’s Word.

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