GOD’S MOST DELICIOUS GIFT!​​

John 3:16 – Devotional

John 3:16

“God loved the world so much that He sacrificed His One and Only Son so that anyone who truly believes receives eternal life.“

There are many sinner’s prayers that I have heard preachers and teachers offer for a person to receive Christ as their personal Savior. Being a simple-minded man I must confess that I find myself getting lost in all of the words.

As I read through the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, I discover that Jesus spent the days of His ministry teaching people much like me. They were not the brilliant scholars of their day. Most of them were simple, hard working men and women who had faith to receive the bread of eternal life Jesus offered.

I recall being in a campground many years ago. In the parking area there were several wild deer who had become so used to tourists that they would boldly come up to the visitors and eat out of their hands. Signs were posted to try and prevent the practice, but many visitors did it anyway. People will be people!

God has offered to anyone and everyone who will sincerely open their heart and receive life that will last forever. We need to offer this most precious gift that could ever be given with as many people as the Lord leads across our path!

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

WONDERFUL PEACE!​​ – John 14:27 Devotional

Hear today's Evotional read aloud

WONDERFUL PEACE!

John 14:27 – Devotional

John 14:27

“Peace I leave with you,
My peace I give to you: not as the world gives do I give I to you.
Do not let your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

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

We seem to be constantly bombarded with the talk of peace. As a young boy I recall pictures of British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain waving a document in his hand and saying he had just met with Adolf Hitler and had secured a promise of peace. His words were, “I have returned from Germany with peace for our time.”

The sad reality was that the world was soon to be exposed to the horrible reality of a war waged by a mad man who intentionally tried to exterminate Jews and other ethnic groups. There was no peace then or now!

From the day that Adam and Eve sinned and were evicted from the garden there has been strife, conflicts and wars. For all of the rhetoric about attaining peace we are no closer to world peace, nor will we ever be until Jesus comes again. What a fantastic day it will be when there is eternal peace — Wonderful Peace.

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

WONDERFUL PEACE

Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm;
In celestial strains it unceasingly falls
O’er my soul like an infinite calm.

Refrain: Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above!
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love!

I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace,
Resting sweetly in Jesus’ control;
For I’m kept from all danger by night and by day,
And His glory is flooding my soul!

Refrain: Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above!
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love!

Ah, soul! are you here without comfort and rest,
Marching down the rough pathway of time?
Make Jesus your Friend ere the shadows grow dark;
O accept of this peace so sublime!

Refrain: Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above!
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love!

GET TO WORK​!​​ – John 9:4 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

GET TO WORK​!​​

John 9:4 – Devotional

John 9:4

“I must do the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work.”

There was a time when I was employed by a company that required me to punch in and out at a time clock. It was the means of insuring that workers arrived on time and worked the full required time before clocking out. At times a whistle is sounded to alert workers when to start and stop work.

In today’s Scripture Jesus is teaching that He had work to do and a limited time to accomplish His assignment. If that was true of the Son of God, how much more should we be committed to do our work for Him.

It would be well for us to take stock of how we spend our time. Are we more committed to the pleasures of life than we are to the opportunities to do the work He has called us to perform?

It is time for us to listen for the whistle from the Holy Spirit telling us that there is work to be done and we need to be faithful in our service for the King of kings and Lord of lords.

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

BE FULL OF CHEER! – John 16:33b Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

BE FULL OF CHEER!

John 16:33b – Devotional

John 16:33b

“In the world you will experience tribulation; but be full of cheer, for I have overcome the world!”

I have thrilled as I have listened to the Gaither’s sing their song, “Because He Lives.” This has been especially true during the times when I stood at the graveside of those who have been the dearest to me.

For the believer, when we say farewell to our believing loved ones, it is not an “eternal good bye,” it is more appropriately a, “until we live eternally in glory, you will live fondly in the storehouse of my memories.”

For the true believers in the Living Lord Jesus, we have a glorious reunion waiting for us in Glory. The precious experience of seeing our loved ones again will only be surpassed by seeing our Lord and Savior who gave Himself for us!

We need to reflect the cheer of being the redeemed of the Lord. Jesus has given us the precious gift of eternal life. For the believer, physical death is a farewell to this sin-sick world and hello to an eternity full of cheer!

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