LEAD ON LORD JESUS​​​​​​!

Romans 8:18 – Devotional

Romans 8:18

“I consider the sufferings and trials of this of this sin-sick world are not worth worrying about when we consider the glory that waiting for us.”

In the past few weeks I have spent a considerable amount of time in a dental chair. As I enter the dental office I have a good idea of the ordeal that awaits me, but the alternative is poor dental health. I endure the pain in order to receive the reward.

Many years ago I had a dental appointment in Ontario, Oregon. The dentist asked if I wanted deadening or not. I thought he was kidding, but he was serious. He explained that he never used Novocain and he survived to live another day!

I thought if he could do it, so could I. Dental professionals think I am either brave or crazy. I just keep them guessing which is true. The fact of the matter is that pain is more fear of what might hurt than what actually hurts.

I have no idea what the Lord will bring across my path in the days that lie ahead for me. It really does not matter for I know that He will be right there beside me each step of the way. LEAD ON LORD JESUS!

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!

JOY AND PEACE​​​​​​!

Romans 15:13 – Devotional

Romans 15:13

“Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”

If there were some way of measuring the amount of joy and peace you had in your life, what would that gauge read? I fear that for many it would be closer to empty than full.

That is tragic! If ever there was a time when the world needed the joy and peace of the Lord, it is today. There is no end to the violence and hatred that surrounds us. But there is also no end to the joy and peace that is ours through our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ.

The call to go forth to bring hope to the hopeless people around us is loud and clear. We have a great opportunity to do something significant in our day and age. The Lord has given His new life that we in turn can share that new life with others.

I remember a song we sang when I was a young boy. It had the words; I have the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart to stay. I want that joy to be seen by others as I live my life for the Lord.

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!

IN CHRIST THERE IS NO EAST OR WEST!

Romans 3:22 – Devotional

Romans 3:22

“The righteousness from God comes through faith
in Jesus Christ to all who believe.“

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

Today’s Evotional is provided by John Oxenham who wrote the lyrics to In Christ There Is No East or West.

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

IN CHRIST THERE IS NO EAST OR WEST

In Christ there is no East or West,
In Him no South or North;
But one great fellowship of love
Throughout the whole wide earth.

In Him shall true hearts everywhere
Their high communion find;
His service is the golden cord,
Close binding humankind.

Join hands, then, members of the faith,
Whatever your race may be!
Who serves my Father as His child
Is surely kin to me.

In Christ now meet both East and West,
In Him meet North and South;
All Christly souls are one in Him
Throughout the whole wide earth.

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

FILL ME UP​​​!

Romans 15:13 – Devotional

Romans 15:13

“Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.“

Back in my teen age years I worked at a gas station. Those were the days when the gas station attendant would not only pump your gas, but clean the windows check the oil and radiator levels. It was after all a service station.

I was always glad when a customer asked that I fill her up. That meant I was not required to keep an eye on the pump if a customer only wanted a few dollars worth of gas.

All too often we approach the Lord’s filling station and ask for only a partial filling. We are not committed to receiving all that He has prepared to fill our spiritual tanks with. As a result we frequently find ourselves running on empty.

I don’t know about you, but it seems like we live in perilous times when we need to keep our spiritual tanks filled. That means spending quality time in God’s Word and communing with Him in prayer. FILL ME UP LORD!

Blessings dear hearts! Draw near to God today, trust Him completely and be a blessing!
