Christ's Return

(The Lord), is not willing that any should perish

 but that all should come to repentance.

2 Peter 3:9

Today's Bible Reading: 2 Peter 3:1-9.

Many people are asking, “Where is history heading?” A careful student of the Bible will be led to see that God controls the clock of destiny. Amid the world’s confusion, God’s omnipotent hand moves, working out His unchanging plan and purpose. Jesus Christ is coming to earth again. It is Christ who is in control, and He will determine the outcome. George Whitefield, the great English evangelist, said, “I am daily waiting for the coming of the Son of God.” But he did not sit down and do nothing. He burned out his life in proclaiming the Gospel of Christ. Let every believer take every opportunity to do the same.

Prayer:  Father, deliver me from slothfulness, keep me quickened to deliver Your message of salvation to everyone who will listen, until that day I die or You return again. In Jesus name. Amen.

Heavenly Joy

God in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed

heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds.

Hebrews:1:2

Today's Bible Reading: Hebrews 1:1-4.

There are many arguments we could marshal to give evidence of the existence of God. There is scientific evidence pointing to God’s existence. For example, whatever is in motion must be moved by another, for motion is the response of matter to power. In the world of matter there can be no power without life, and life pre-supposes a being from which emanates the power to move things, such as tides and the planets. Or there is the argument that says nothing can be the cause of itself. It would be prior to itself if it caused itself to be, and that is an absurdity. Then there is the law of life. We see objects that have no intellect, such as stars and planets, moving in a consistent pattern, cooperating ingeniously with one another. Hence, it is evident that they achieve their movements not by accident but by design. Whatever lacks intelligence cannot move intelligently. An arrow would be useless without a bow and an archer. What gives direction and purpose and design to inanimate objects? It is God. He is the underlying, motivating force of life.

Prayer:  Lord, I know that without Your power my life would be useless. Prompt me, by Your Holy Spirit, to glorify You in everything I do. In Jesus Precious name. Amen.

Meditate on Scripture

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

Psalm 119:105

Today's Bible Reading: Nehemiah 8:1-3.

Many of the difficulties we experience as Christians can be traced to a lack of Bible study and reading, and therefore biblical knowledge. We should not be content to skim through a chapter merely to satisfy our conscience. Hide the Word of God in your heart! A little portion well digested is of greater value to the soul than a lengthy portion scanned hurriedly. Do not be discouraged because you cannot understand it all. Go on reading. As you read, the Holy Spirit will enlighten the passages for you. Reading the Bible has a purifying effect upon the heart and mind. Read the Bible daily and inwardly digest.

Prayer:  Let the enlightenment of the riches of Your Word sink deep within my soul, Father, for I asked in Jesus name. Amen.
