The Name Of Jesus - Devotional For Nov 6

The following chapter is from Franklin Logsdon's commentary on the book of Malachi, called Malachi Or Will A Man Rob God? Chapter two is all about the names of God, especially the name of Jesus, and the importance of it to the people of God. While this chapter is primarily correcting the Israelites about their low esteem of God's name, I found it to be a real blessing to read as it focusses on various names of God in the Old Testament, and the name of Jesus in the New Testament - the name above every name!

Blazing A Trail God's Way - Poem For Nov 18

   Blazing A Trail God’s Way Way back in olden times, in the pioneer days, “Go West, Young man,” was an often heard phrase. Go make your own mark, go blaze your own trail - In the eyes of the world you will never fail. But the way to make a difference in the eyes of the Lord Is to base your whole life upon the truths found in God’s Word. Jesus is the Author of your faith - He’s already blazed the way; Follow closely in His footsteps, cling to Him every day. “I know the thoughts that I think toward you,” you’ll never walk alone; He has a plan and a purpose that you can call your very own; He will provide all things that will need to serve Him faithfully; Stir up the gifts He’s given you; keep your eyes on eternity. He’s the Finisher of your faith - that means He has a plan; “It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.” Remember the Good Shepherd, who came to seek and to save; “Be strong and of a good courage, fear not” - be Brave! The path of the just shine...

Audio Of Poems Presented In Church In 2022

Poems Presented In Church In 2021 to 2022, for about 10 months in the two main Sunday services, I presented poems in church as a ministry. Usually I shared an introduction to the poem (perhaps the story behind it if it was one of mine or if I knew of the events surrounding it), then I presented the verses behind it and a Biblical exhortation to draw closer to the Lord.  While we were recording the sermons preached each service, we did not think to actually record the poem presentations until about the last four months. The poems were a blessing to share and God's hand was definitely upon that ministry, as the poems and challenges I read often went with the theme of the sermons preached, the songs chosen, and many times both - yet the hymns chosen each day and the Pastor's themes or passages were not announced to me in advance. It was a ministry wholly dependent upon the Lord's guiding, and His hand was very evident for all those months. For various reasons, the Lord guided ...

What's Your (Spiritual) Net Worth? - Devotional For Nov 14

What's Your Net Worth? Of course, you probably started thinking about your monetary value, your assets – any property you may have, houses and cars, perhaps other valuable items like stocks and bonds, or antiques. But I am not referring to any kind of worldly wealth, but actually thinking about spiritual matters. In your walk with the Lord, what's your net worth? What value do you place on your net? Matthew 4:18-22  And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him. Luke 5:2  And saw two ships standing by ...
