HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-All morally wrong decisions you make are preceded by a series of unwise
decisions that lead you to the brink of disaster-
2-The New Testament knows nothing of a salvation that does not change
lives-
3-The fruits of the Spirit are for living and not for taking in-
4-To believe means "by my life"-
5-Once a person has truly encountered God, there is a hungering and
thirsting to be in his presence-
STRANGE THOUGHT-In what direction are your eyes facing when you are
asleep?
I'VE LEARNED-Our relationship with God is not dependant on what is
happening to us-
DID YOU KNOW-A sheep, a duck, and a rooster were the first passengers in a
hot air balloon-
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Does God know our unexpressed feelings and thoughts?
2-Did Daniel expect to be viciously killed when he was put into the lions
den?
3-How much of human fear did Daniel experience when put into the lions
den?
4-Was King Darius expecting Daniel to be dead or alive when he went to
check on him?
5-Why was Daniel and his friends chosen to serve in the kings palace?
BIBLE TRIVIA-Who was supposed to have been flayed to death?
Yesterday's answer-John
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY 15:36-41
36 After some time, Paul said to Barnabas, “We should go
back to all those towns where we preached the message of the Lord. Let’s visit
the believers and see how they are doing.”
37 Barnabas wanted to take John Mark with them,
38 but he had left them at Pamphylia; he did not continue
with them in the work. So Paul did not think it was a good idea to take him.
39 Paul and Barnabas had such a serious argument about this
that they separated and went different ways. Barnabas took Mark and sailed to
Cyprus, 40 but Paul chose Silas and left. The believers in Antioch
put Paul into the Lord’s care, 41 and he went through Syria
and Cilicia, giving strength to the churches.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, as the slide to
decadence deepens, we see the influence it has on the Christian church at large.
Fearing rejection and mockery from the world or appearing as unsuccessful in the
eyes of the world, many church leaders become accepting of the current
philosophies and lifestyles prominent in our day, rather than holding to the
unchanging standards prescribed through Your commands in Scripture. In the gray
areas, help us to be gracious. But in the black and white commands of Scripture
help us to be brave, strong and unambiguous in our position and consistent in
our example as permissiveness, false prophesies, and weakened leaders dot the
landscape. When seekers want the timeless truth of Scriptures rather than the
changing truth of our times we will be prepared to guide them to Your eternal
truths. Keep us faithful in doing so. In Jesus’ name we pray.
Amen.
