ARE YOU ALL IN OR ALL OUT FOR JESUS?
“Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.” (Romans 12:12, ESV) This is not a ‘Hallmark’ card saying – this is a command from the Creator who made heaven and earth and you and me. Rejoice in hope – hope in the Bible does not mean ‘wish’ it means a sure thing – […]
Morning Prayers
Lord help us to love you today with all of our heart and to love our neighbors as ourselves. You have said this is highest on your priority and so it must be on ours as well. Help us Lord – these things are not natural to us but they are a part of the […]
Evening Prayers
Thank you, Lord, for such a beautiful day that you have given me. How you were with me and accompanied me, and kept me, and guarded me, and brought me through to this night where you now grant me rest. May I lay down in Christ Jesus that I know then I shall awake in […]
ARE YOU ALL IN OR ALL OUT FOR JESUS?
“Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord.” (Romans 12:11, ESV) Here is the central theme in our lives – Serve The Lord. We need to know, there is no such thing as ‘a little service’ – we are serving the Lord – or we are not. How can one […]
We Choose and We Continue In Our Choice
“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Hebrews 12:2, NIV84) Life is a daily choice between the Lord Jesus Christ and the world […]
Morning Prayers
In the morning when I rise, give me Jesus – and may my heart be and remain surrendered to the Lord my Savior not just for the morning but throughout the day and all my life and yes to the end of eternity which is without end – yes amen and may it ever be […]
Marked by Jesus Christ?
“Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.” (Romans 12:10, ESV) If we are followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, our lives are marked by his presence in us (for it is no longer we who live but Christ who lives in us… Galatians 2:20). The presence of the risen Lord […]
Who Will You Choose Today? God or The World?
Joshua said choose today who you will serve and then he declared that he chooses to follow the Lord, to serve the Lord, to live for the Lord. (Joshua 24:15) This decision is not one you can defer. A failure to choose to follow Jesus is a choice not to follow Jesus. There is no […]
Morning Prayers
Praise you O Lord for you have given us this new day, may we live today with our eyes on Jesus – seeking to follow him in all things and seeking to love God – Father, Son, Holy Spirit, above all else and love our neighbors as ourselves – especially the most difficult neighbor. Forgive […]
Evening Prayers
Bless the Lord O our souls, worship your holy name. Lord, as we review our day, we confess that we have not loved you today with all our heart, soul and mind and we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves – we confess that we have been self-centered, selfish, and we have not opened […]
