YOUR EYES


Deuteronomy 11:7 (NKJV) 7 but your eyes have seen every great act of the LORD which He did.
    God is doing miracles as He did in the days of old, to let the sun shine on this generation of people without the call to judgment is a miracle. Every new day is amazing, to take one more breath is a precious gift, to have the heart beat one more time is truly a miracle, why?
    We live in a day when God must surely call man to account, massive abuse of power world wide, the threat of destruction in every nation, the moral bankruptcy of every land and the lawless leading the charge of self righteousness. We know God must act, "But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near" Luke 21:20 (NKJV) one small nation awaits the coming as well, everything hinges on Israel. Are you looking up, you must, our redemption's near.
Heavenly Father help us to look to You and not on the things around us, help us find our faith in your plans and not the worlds ideas. May we worship the King of Glory and not the foolishness of men. AMEN

TO GIVE LIGHT


Luke 1:79 (NKJV) 79 To give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, To guide our feet into the way of peace."
   The Lord Jesus has purchased for you and I the Way of Peace, it comes at a great price, far more than we can afford. The offering of Peace comes from plans that were laid before the foundation of the world, it has built into the blueprint, the most detailed account of life for the one who will receive Christ as Lord and Savior. The building of Peace will contain the Light of Life and darkness will no longer have a place. Death has no grip on the believer, and Peace has become the rule of the House, Life is now Eternal and lived in the Presence of God who dwells with His people. How?
   But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:8-10 (NKJV)
Heavenly Father may all our days be spent in looking to You, for the "Way of Peace."Amen

THE MEEK


Psalms 37:11 (NKJV) 11 But the meek shall inherit the earth, And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. 
   The Lord quotes this verse in the sermon on the mount, Matthew 5:5, someone has stated, "meekness is strength under God's control." David is credited for composing this psalm, a man of war finds meekness both appealing and rewarding. We read in Matthew 21:12, that Jesus drove money changers out of the temple, the same zeal that drove David to cleans the land of evil, is the same zeal predicted of our Lord for cleansing the house of God.
   A day for those who love the Lord God with all their heart is coming, an eternity of peace, a place of rest. Jesus says, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me," John 14:6, there is no other way. Come to the One, who delivers everyone through His sacrifice, and you too will experience meekness, God's Way.
Heavenly Father, we look to You, may all we see encourage us to follow the One who in meekness died for our sins. Draw us oh God to your side that we may worship in Your Truth. Amen

LOVE THE LORD


Deuteronomy 6:5 (NKJV) 5 You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.
    The heart that has received forgiveness from Jesus Christ, is given the Gift desired by all people. With the presence of the Savior in the life of the believer, comes the desire to know every detail about the One who Loves unceasingly, shows Mercy that is undeserved and applies Grace to the forgiven soul.
   A child behaving badly in the grocery store was scolded by his mother, he asked "Mommy do still love me?" The answer is yes and more, why, because the love for what God has entrusted to us, that precious life is the reason for discipline.
   God scolds us because He loves, not because He can, He disciplines to teach us our need of moral virtue, He corrects to prove His great mercy. Are you feeling pressure to do right today, know that you must love Him with all your heart soul and strength, He loved you just like that!
Heavenly Father, in You alone is our life, there is no other, may we trust You entirely with every breath. Amen

YOUR SALVATION

Genesis 49:18 I have waited for your salvation, O Lord!
   In our hurry for the day God is often left out, a mother rushing to work looked behind her see how her child was doing, she hit the brakes in horror, she had left the baby at home. Fear is a motivation for action, however our fear is seldom in response to our need for communion with God. Stop today spend time with Him and He will provide your salvation.
Heavenly Father we look up and see You are waiting on us, thank you for your Love, Patience, and Mercy. Amen

THEY WENT OUT


Mark 16:20 (NKJV) 20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them ...
     The mark of a person or who they are is evidenced by what they do. A little boy had cowboy boots and a hat on, someone asked, Who are you, "I'm superman," he replied. Many are wearing what they believe is christian attire but they look entirely different to the observer.
     Heavenly Father help us to see as You see, help us to recognize what is not pleasing to You. Amen

CANNOT BE MOVED


Proverbs 12:3 (NKJV) 3 A man is not established by wickedness, But the root of the righteous cannot be moved.
    God has a definitive right and wrong for His creation, He clearly sets the example of the righteous, over the plans of the foolish. Wickedness in God's kingdom will not prosper or find its way into Eternity, the God of all Holiness and Righteousness, will not permit one stain of sin to enter His plans for the ones He calls His chosen. John 15:16
    The chosen of God will bear fruit and they will exhibit righteous living, that means fleeing from sin and avoiding any appearance of evil.
How do you live today, how do others see you, what in the life you live is bearing the fruit of Righteousness?
Heavenly Father the lives of all people are yours, may we each accept our roles as those called out to obey. May every breath exalt You, may every thought be captive to your Will. Amen
