CHOOSE TO PRAISE!

Psalm 100:4 – Devotional

Psalm 100:4

“Enter His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him and bless His name.“

We all have things to be thankful for. Across the years of my life I have come to realize that we have far more to praise God for than to complain about what we do not have.

If you are like me, you will recall individuals who seem to be committed to be the biggest complainers in their sphere of influence. It is possible to spot these people by the way others seem to go out of their way to avoid them.

These people are not known to be “praise people” but rather complaining people. I for one have a desire to be known as a person of praise. In every situation of life I want to search for something to praise God for and then – – PRAISE HIM!

Are you a person of praise? I urge you to begin immediately to praise the Lord for the day He has given us and the opportunity to serve Him with joy and gladness in our heart and a smile on our face. SMILE AWHILE! It will be a blessing to a world that is filled with too many frowns!

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

THERE IS A FOUNTAIN! – Zechariah 13:1 Devotional

by | Jan 16, 2026 | Zechariah

THERE IS A FOUNTAIN!

Zechariah 13:1 – Devotional

Zechariah 13:1

“On that day a fountain will be opened to the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity.”

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

This Friday we have a special treat for you. Russ Hansen has combined AI and Scripture to produce an original song entitled, “There is a Fountain” with words written by William Cowper (1731-1800). Russ would appreciate your feedback at inspiration@thegoodbookcompany.com.

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

There Is a Fountain (William Cowper, 1772-1800)

There is a fountain filled with blood,
Drawn from Immanuel’s veins,
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains:
Lose all their guilty stains,
Lose all their guilty stains;
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.

The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in His day;
And there have I, though vile as he,
Washed all my sins away:
Washed all my sins away,
Washed all my sins away;
And there have I, though vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.

Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its pow’r,
Till all the ransomed church of God
Are safe, to sin no more:
Are safe, to sin no more,
Are safe, to sin no more;
Till all the ransomed church of God
Are safe, to sin no more.

E’er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die:
And shall be till I die,
And shall be till I die;
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die.

When this poor, lisping, stamm’ring tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save:
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save,
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save;
Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save.

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

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

KNOWN BY THE LORD​​! Psalm 139:1 – Devotional

by | Jan 15, 2026 | Psalm

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

KNOWN BY THE LORD!

Psalm 139:1 – Devotional

Psalm 139:1

“Lord, You have searched us and know us inside and out yet You love us still.“

From time to time we have lunch with a friend to celebrate their birthday. As we review the menu, we are faced with many appealing choices. We know that no matter what we chose it will be delicious; but will it be good for us? Ah! That’s a different story isn’t it?

From time to time we all are called upon to make choices. As a matter of fact, we are faced with choices each and every day. Some of these choices are relatively insignificant (such as what to order off a restaurant menu) while others could be life changing.

The Israelites had seen the powerful hand of the Lord lead them from their bondage in Egypt to possess the Promised Land. You would think that they would never want to turn their back on God, but they did! Why? Because they yielded to Satan, who tempted them with temporal things that pass away.

I have no idea what temptation you are facing right now in your life, but I urge you to make the right choice and, like Joshua, choose to serve the Lord!

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