Even Birds, by the Book

“Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” Matthew 10:29-30

Scripture Focus: Galatians 5:22-26

Do you ever consider, as you sit in church on Sunday morning, that every individual who surrounds you was called there, personally and intentionally, by God? You were, too, you know. He did not call you audibly, but you would not be there—no one would be—if it were not His will.

Pondering this reality can blow your mind. You drive home that afternoon and realize that every tree is growing by His design. Every bird perched on a telephone wire is there by God’s plan. Our passage today from the prophet Isaiah describes God calling owls, hawks, and birds of prey to inhabit Edom, a nation that was the enemy of the Jews. He calls attention to the fact that it is written in His book by the prophet. And they heed the call. His Spirit gathers them.

God is intimately involved with His creation, even making redemptive use of wild animals. So do not ever think that you are inconsequential or unimportant. Every hair on your head, every drop of your blood, is significant to Him because it was bought with the blood of His Son.

Insight: So do not think that you are inconsequential or unimportant. Every hair on your head (I keep loosing more and more of those), every drop of your blood (even if it is on a diabetic test strip), is significant to Him because it was bought with the blood of His Son. 




It is our hopes and prayers that these devotions will bring people to Jesus as Savior and have a deeper meaningful relationship with the Lord.

+DEV+ A New Heart

  Jun 6, 2022 at 12:55 AM CST Topic: +DEV+     A New Heart A New Heart "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh." Ezekiel 36:26     Scripture Focus: Ezekiel 36:22-38 When I first met Stanley, he was in his mid-50s and had spent more years behind bars than free. He had a very difficult time realizing he could be forgiven for committing yet another crime. However, God was working on his heart through prayer, Scripture, and books like Forgive and Forget. This book includes these powerful words: "To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you" (Lewis Smedes, 1984).     Gradually, Stanley did find forgiveness through Jesus. He also discovered that God was transforming his heart and placing a new spirit within him. God removed Stanleys’ stone heart and replaced it with a "heart of flesh." Soon Ezekiel 36:26 became Stanleys' favorite verse in...

LORD OF ALL

  LORD OF ALL By Jonathan Cahn Isaiah 46:9-13 & John 16:33 (Message - Him) This letter is framed by the fact that I’m needing to write it beforehand in midsummer.     So I’m writing it before the autumn.     I believe this September and autumn will be a most critical time.     I believe America is in great trouble and now standing at a precipice - which can lead to repentance, departure, the sealing of judgment, and calamity.     And it can include both shakings and calamities that lead many to return to God.     But no matter what happens or not in the spiritual realm or the physical realm - some things will be true and most importantly in the autumn.     The world changes - but God remains the same.     Everything in this world is temporary.     Everything changes.     People come and go, live and die.     Parties come to power and are driven from power.     Kingdoms ...

Ordained Minister looking to find a small rural church near Rolla Missouri to serve as its pastor

 "WHAT I BELIEVE" I believe tat Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died vicariously on a roman cross, arose from the dead on the third day, many saw him for 45 days and then ascended into heaven with the promise to send the Holy Spirit to help and guide us and that he would return in the same manner. He commissioned his disciples (us) to proclaim the Gospel (good news) to all. I believe in the Baptism in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues, as a separate and distinct ministry of the third person in the Holy Trinity. After some 25 years of study in end times events, I believe Jesus is about to return as the prophecies are becoming headline news today. All key points are now in place for the Antichrist to take the stage of the World. However I also believe the antichrist is held back by Christians, which will soon be removed (raptured) at which time he will step in and supposedly cure all our problems and every one left will ohh and ahh about...
