About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

Our Loving Father
July 8th
Luke 11:11 - 'If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?'
LUKE 11:11
The most loving Father in the world cannot compare to our heavenly Father and the love He has for us. And yet, many times, we find it easier to believe in the willingness of a father or mother or mate to help us than in the willingness of God to use His power on our behalf. Relatively few people really doubt God's ability, but rather, it is our doubt of His willingness to use His ability on our behalf that causes most people to do without. Jesus is assuring us that God's love, and His willingness to demonstrate...
I HAVE HEARD ALL MY LIFE, "ONCE SAVED, ALWAYS SAVED". SOME MINISTERS SAID THAT IT WAS NOT TRUE WHILE OTHERS SAID THAT IT WAS. WELL, WHEN I WAS NOT REALLY STUDYING THE BIBLE, I DID NOT KNOW. I ALWAYS HOPED IT WAS TRUE BUT NO ONE COULD TELL ME FOR SURE.
Prayer Power
July 7th
Luke 11:1 - 'And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, 'Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples'.'
LUKE 11:1
When you consider that Jesus was the greatest miracle worker who ever walked the earth and the greatest preacher who ever lived, it is amazing that His disciples asked Him to teach them to pray. Why didn't they ask Him to teach them how to work these miracles or how to preach and amaze the people with their doctrine?
It's because Jesus' prayer life was even more powerful than His miracles or His doctrine. Indeed, it was His union with the Father that gave Him His power to work...
Seek First The Kingdom
July 6th
Luke 10:40 - 'But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord dost thou not
LUKE 10:40
There are only three instances in Scripture that give us information about Martha. From these accounts, we can see that Martha had a brother named Lazarus, whom Jesus raised from the dead, and a sister named Mary. Martha had misplaced her priorities on this occasion and was corrected by Jesus. Later, at a supper for Jesus in...
DID YOU KNOW THAT EVERY DAY IS THE DAY OF SALVATION? IT SAYS THIS IN 2ND CORINTHIANS 6:2 For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. THE REASON I SAY THAT EVERY DAY IS THE DAY OF SALVATION IS THAT IF YOU READ THIS VERSE EVERY DAY, THEN EVERY DAY WILL BE THE DAY OF SALVATION AND IT SHOULD BE. WE ALL SHOULD BE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WE CAN BRING TO JESUS EVERY DAY.
Who Crosses Your Path?
July 5th
Luke 10:29 - 'But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor?'
LUKE 10:29
This question of 'who is my neighbour' can be used by Satan to deceive us in more than one way. Not only can he deceive men into thinking they have fulfilled the command to 'love thy neighbor as thyself' when they haven't, but he will also try to apply this command in a way that condemns those who are seeking to fulfill it, by making them think they are not doing enough.
We cannot meet the needs of every single person in the world. Jesus wasn't teaching that. This wounded man was directly in the path of these three men. The priest and the Levite had to walk around...
