HIGHER GROUND! – Philippians 3:14 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

HIGHER GROUND!

Philippians 3:14 – Devotional

Philippians 3:14

“I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

This week’s inspirational video devotional features scenes from Yellowstone National Park and the encouraging words of Johnson Oatman, Jr. in his hymn, Higher Ground.

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

HIGHER GROUND

I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining ev’ry day;
Still praying as I’m onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;

A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught a joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

I want to scale the utmost height,
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

GOD IS AVAILABLE TO ALL! – 2 Kings 5:3 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

GOD IS AVAILABLE TO ALL!

2 Kings 5:3 – Devotional

2 Kings 5:3

“If only my master were with the prophet who is in Samaria, he would heal him of his leprosy.”

What are we to do when we are caught in a situation that enslaves us? We are to remain faithful!

In today’s Scripture we read about an unknown young girl that was taken captive from Israel and exiled to a foreign nation where she served the wife of a Syrian general, Naaman, who suffered with leprosy. She demonstrated kindness by suggesting the general go to Samaria where a prophet would heal him.

This young girl had never seen the prophet Elisha heal someone with leprosy, but she had faith that he could and would. Her God was available to all!

The general believed her and went with gifts to the king of Israel. How sad that the King was terrified, while the servant girl trusted God! The King of Israel lacked the faith of a young servant girl. Finally the Prophet, Elisha, heard about the king’s dilemma and asked that Naaman be sent to him.

There was a miracle about to take place that would show the power of God doing what the political powers were unable to do.

We serve a God in heaven who is able to do more than we can ever think or conceive!

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

BE ON GUARD! – 2 Peter 3:11 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

BE ON GUARD!

2 Peter 3:11 – Devotional

2 Peter 3:11

“Be on guard so you will not be carried away by the error of the lawless and be led away from your secure position.”

As a former city police officer and Air Force Combat Missile Commander, I know what it is to be on guard. I have spent many wakeful nights to insure others are safe in their beds. The threat of enemies is deterred by those who are constantly on guard.

It is an awesome responsibility to be placed in a position of trust. As a police officer I was able to break up family disputes and save business owners from losing their property to burglars. In the Air Force I stood ready to defend our nation in the event an enemy launched a missile toward our shores.

Spiritually, I feel the need to defend the inerrant Word of God against the relentless attacks of liberal theologians who feel a committee is able to set aside the absolutes of Scripture. Defending God’s Word is a responsibility each of us should assume.

The best way to defend the faith is to follow what this passage in 2 Peter 3:12 advises: “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” The more we study God’s Word and commune with Him in prayer, the more we will be able to stand guard.

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