Prayer from Called Magazine 2/9/15

Father, please touch those who feel stressed. – Replace confusion with clarity ... lack with abundance ... chaos with peace ... and problems with solutions.

~In Jesus' Name, Amen

Pastor Bishop

Pastor Bishop surprised us all by attending church for the first time since his surgery. He's looking good, seems to be in good spirits and promised not to do wheelies in his wheelchair. We're all praying that he returns to us quickly and we're praising the Lord for the Pastor's healing.

1 Corinthians 10:13

No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.    1 Corinthians 10:13

Matthew 9:17

Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.    Matthew 9:17

LWF - Keeping the Faith

Keeping the Faith

BIBLE MEDITATION:
“…Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall He find faith on the earth?” Luke 18:8

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I believe with all my heart that the call needs to go out today more clearly than ever before for Christians to keep the faith.

William Booth, founder of the Salvation Army, said, “The chief danger of the 20th century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, and Heaven without Hell.”

We are but one generation away from paganism. If this generation doesn’t keep the faith and pass it to the next, there will be no faith.
ACTION POINT:
Are you passing the faith to the next generation? Here is your commission from the Lord: “Therefore shall ye lay up these My words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates.” Deuteronomy 11:18-20

2 Corinthians 12:9

My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.    2 Corinthians 12:9

Psalm 23:4

Psalm 23:4

Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.


Interestingly enough, one often associates a rod with correction. We can find comfort in knowing that God will use the rod of correction on us when we need it. We can have a certain sense of security in knowing that God will chastise us when we go astray, in order to draw us back!
