THE PURE WORD!

Psalm 12:6 – Devotional

Psalm 12:6

“The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.”

I think almost everyone will readily agree that we live in an impure world. From time to time we hear the call for us to return to the “good ole days!” Some astute observer has observed that we were neither good nor were we old.

The heart of mankind is wicked by nature. We like to picture babies as being perfect little angels, but those of us who are parents will vividly recall those times when our “little angels” did not behave as angels!

As imperfect people living in an imperfect world, we need a reliable source of spiritual truth. That unchanging and always reliable truth is the Word of God. Just to carry the Bible or quote a few verses is not enough. We must live it!

We live the Word of God by spending time in it and making it the dependable source of truth. When we use God’s Word as our source of truth, the errors of worldly philosophy will readily be exposed. THE PURE WORD!

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

BLESSINGS TO THE LORD!

Psalm 103:1 – Devotional

Psalm 103:1

“Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name!”

When my wife Joyce and I were high school seniors, Joyce was crowned Homecoming Queen. I can still picture her sitting in the gymnasium on a make-shift throne along with her court. The crown on her head signified that she had been voted Queen of our student body.

The position carried no monetary rewards and on the following Monday the other students did not bow to her. She was just the same Joyce Harper as she had been before the coronation.

Our present-day society suffers from a short supply of love and mercy. It seems more and more that we live in a dog-eat-dog world. Even Christians seem to be caught up in the struggle to get ahead regardless of the needs of others.

My sweet “Homecoming Queen” might have surrendered her crown after that night so long ago, but she has received a far greater crown from the Lord. She had the qualities of love and mercy as a gift from God and went to be with Him almost nine years ago. She now has a crown that will last for eternity!

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

WALK WITH GOD!

Psalm 23:4 – Devotional

Psalm 23:4

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil;
for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.”

Back when I was in high school (in the dark ages), I read a poem that rattled my cage. I cut it out and carried it around for many years before losing it. I have wished many times that I still had it. I hope you enjoy what I recall. It went something like this:

When skies are blue and songbirds sing;
When flowers bloom, their fragrance bring;
When friends abound and funds abound;
When health and love are easily found;
It doesn’t take a lot of sand to shout and sing, to beat the band.

BUT – – –
When things go wrong—as they often do;
When skies suddenly lose their azure blue;
When well laid plans fall into a crumpled heap;
When weary eyes scream out for peaceful sleep;

THEN – – –
Is the time to take our stand, it’s the time to walk by faith and take God’s hand!

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