PassageRomans 11:17
PrayerDear Father, king of banquets,May I enter your halls wearing the appropriate garment, the righteousness of Jesus Christ, not that of my own making. The false righteousness of adherence to man-made rules is a worthless covering. Only the true righteousness of belief in your Son will make my appearance acceptable to you.Grant me true humility. If I boast, let it be about you. Let my pride be in what you have done for me, not in what I make of myself.In the name of Jesus, ..

I thank my God upon every remembrance of you…

— Philippians 1:3 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse…
Certain people are blessings. It doesn't matter if we visit with them on the phone, get an encouraging email, receive a hand-written letter, or see them face to face. Any time we remember them, we thank God for them. So let's follow Paul's example and let them know they give us reasons to offer thanks to God.
My Prayer…
Loving LORD, thank you for… (pl..

Witches Come Out to Support Planned Parenthood as Pro-Life People Protest

14/02/2017 0 Comment

This weekend, there were pro-life #ProtestPP rallies scheduled at more than a quarter, over 200, of Planned Parenthoods across our nation. And the violence and hatred that our team saw at multiple locations was not only frightening but it was a clear warning sign to you and me.

In Portland, where our Northwest Coordinator (Katie) spoke, the abortion supporters where already at the Planned Parenthood by the time the pro-lifers arrived for their rally. They immediately starting yelling obscenitie..

1 John 4:20 (02-13-17)

If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

— 1 John 4:20 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse…
“O how I love Jesus!” we sing. Jesus responds by asking how well we are doing with loving our brothers and sisters! We can't love God if we can't love those around us.
My Prayer…
Forgive me, dear Father, for the times I have harbored pettiness in my ..

Waging Peace – Matthew 5:9

Key Passage”What great blessings there are for the people that work to bring peace! God will call them his sons and daughters.”
— Matthew 5:9 ERV (Read Full Text)
Key Thought”Wage Peace.” That's a fairly popular bumper sticker around our neck of the woods. It's the grown up version of the old Hippie song, “All we are saying is give peace a chance.” Deep in our hearts we know there is a tremendous difference between being a peace lover and a peace maker. Peace lovers like the calm and s..

A Grafted Branch

PassageRomans 11:17
PrayerDear Father, king of banquets,Like that unknown hearer of Jesus long ago, I say, “How blessed it will be to eat bread in the kingdom of God.”Please, Lord, don't let me be like those who were invited to the marriage feast honoring the king's son but who scorned it in favor of business deals and family matters. They were left out while the king filled his house with those from the highways and country lanes. Your ancient people, Israel, rejected your invitatio..

Prayer Guidelines

13/02/2017 0 Comment

Prayer is communication with God. Talking with Almighty God is
the greatest privilege you have.

God desires a growing relationship with you. Communication is
essential for a relationship to develop. Involve God in every
part of your life: every decision and every action. In that
sense you should pray without ceasing — always being in
communication with God.

However, we need special prayer times focused completely on the
Lord. He is worthy of our time and attention — and we require
this time ..

Israel’s Unbelief

PassageRomans 10:18-11:16
PrayerDear Father,How sorry I am that the people you chose, the nation of Israel, has spurned your Messiah and turned away in unbelief. But how thankful I am that because of their unbelief you have sent your message to Gentiles so that we can be adopted into the family of Abraham, grafted as wild shoots into the natural olive tree.I rejoice that even today you have redeemed in Christ thousands of Abraham's natural descendants for your kingdom.I rejoice that I share..

1 John 4:19 (02-12-17)

We love him, because he first loved us.

— 1 John 4:19 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse…
As human beings, we like to think of ourselves as the center of our universe. We determine the greatness or validity of most deeds based on their impact upon us. We consider ourselves great adventurers, inventors, and investigators. However, in the most important quest of all, we did not act first; God did. He loved us sacrificially. He loved us personally. He loved us first. Our love is a resp..

VerseSamuel took his flask of oil and anointed him [David], with his brothers standing around watching. The Spirit of God entered David like a rush of wind, God vitally empowering him for the rest of his life.
— 1 Samuel 16:13 MESSAGE
ThoughtThroughout the Old Testament, God's Spirit would come on leaders for a time and empower them in special ways. David was led and empowered by the Spirit for his whole life after he was anointed by Samuel, although his sinful time with Bathsheba made him..
