HIS PRESENCE!

Psalm 139:7 – Devotional

Psalm 139:7

“Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?”

Across the years I have had the privilege of experiencing a variety of professions. One of the most memorable was working as a County Juvenile Probation Officer. I had come into the position directly from serving as a city police officer, so I was well acquainted with the patrol officers who worked the night shift.

I frequently rode with one of the officers as he made his rounds and would occasionally spot a juvenile who was part of my caseload. I would note the time, location, and who else was with him. Many times the probationer was on a court-ordered curfew along with a list of individuals not to associate with.

The next time that probationer reported in I would ask if they were adhering to their curfew. The response was usually that they were. I would then ask about the day and time I had observed them. Their look of astonishment was priceless. I would then proceed to take the necessary action that was merited. It wasn’t long before they felt like I was everywhere and they had better keep on the straight and narrow.

In today’s Scripture we see that the Lord is everywhere and He knows all about us. There are no time-outs when it comes to living for the Lord. He knows each and everything about us. That is not a bad thing but is a constant reminder that He is always there when we call. Praise the Lord!

ALERT DUTY!

Psalm 37:34 – Devotional

Psalm 37:34

“Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.”

When I was in the military there were times when I was assigned to “Alert Duty.” What that implied, was that those of us who were on duty were not sleep, but were to maintain a constant state of readiness. We few would be tasked to alert the other members of the unit who would then spring into action.

In today’s Scripture, the psalmist is calling us to take on the assignment of being on alert. We are to be the watchmen (watchwomen) who keep our eyes open to the threats of the enemy.

Not only are we called to be alert to spiritual danger, but we are also to be aware of the leading of the Lord. When He is working in our midst, we need to rush to His side in order to respond to His call.

Are you on Alert Duty for the Lord? Are you spiritually aware of what God is doing in your midst in order to join with Him in bringing about His purposes? Now is the time to shake off the spiritual slumber and be alert.

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

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!
