Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 1Peter 5:8KJV

They lived on a farm, where, among other things, they planted corn by hand.  Dad got tired of planting one day, but still had seed left.   He dumped it all in a hole at the edge of the field, went to the house, and declared he was done!  In a few weeks his indiscretion was visble to everyone.  He got a whoopin' for that one.  finally, I had something on him, I thought.

Satan, the enemy of our soul, is looking for ammuniton to use against us, too.  His goal is not to tease, but to Steal, Kill, and Destroy (John 10:10).  But through vigilance and repentance, his accusations are meaningless.   (by SRC page 218 "A Cup Comfort Devotional") 

God is Love 1John 4:16

Jesus Is The Living Water

-
Image
Jesus knew the Pharisees had heard that he was baptizing and making more disciples than John  (though Jesus himself didn’t baptize them—his disciples did).  So he left Judea and returned to Galilee.  He had to go through Samaria on the way.  Eventually he came to the Samaritan village of Sychar, near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.  Jacob’s well was there; and Jesus, tired from the long walk, sat wearily beside the well about noontime.  Soon a Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Please give me a drink.”  He was alone at the time because his disciples had gone into the village to buy some food. The woman was surprised, for Jews refuse to have anything to do with Samaritans.  She said to Jesus, “You are a Jew, and I am a Samaritan woman. Why are you asking me for a drink?” Jesus replied, “If you only knew the gift God has for you and who you are speaking to, you would ask me, and I would give you living water.” ...

The Best Father In The Whole World

Happy Father's God Jesus said:    TAKE CARE not to do your good deeds publicly or before men, in order to be seen by them; otherwise you will have no reward [reserved for and awaiting you] with and from your Father Who is in heaven.  Thus, whenever you give to the poor, do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites in the synagogues and in the streets like to do, that they may be recognized and honored and praised by men. Truly I tell you, they have their reward in full already.  But when you give to charity, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,      So that your deeds of charity may be in secret; and your Father Who sees in secret will reward you openly.  Also when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by people. Truly I tell you, they have their reward in full already.    ...

COUNTERFEIT

But God’s truth stands firm like a foundation stone with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and “All who belong to the Lord must turn away from evil.” 2Timothy 2:19 NLT Some things will never change.  One of them is the solidity of the truth of God's Word.  It matters not who tries to distort and malign it;  its foundation is unshakable.  One of the reasons I am confident in the Word is that God's Word is not discerned by the head, but by the heart of man.  The hearts of men and women of God cannot be tampered with.  Something else that always remains the same is the truth that God is very clear about those who belong to Him.  He is not confused at all.  Who are they?  They are the ones who claim to be His by turning away from all wickedness, with godly sorrow and genuine repentance.   Any mother who has given birth and seen her baby for the first time will from then on recognize as a fraud and sub...

Wear the Armor of God Each Day

-
Image
The Apostle Paul a servant of Jesus Christ Write to the Church   Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.     In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which i...

EIGHT DAYS OF PRAYERS

-
by the National Council of the Churches of Christ   The themes of the eight days There is a journey of faith that can be discerned in the themes of the eight days. From its first beginnings in the upper room, the early Christian community experiences the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, enabling it to grow in faith and unity, in prayer and in action, so that it truly becomes a community of the Resurrection, united with Christ in his victory over all that divides us from each other and from him. The church in Jerusalem then itself becomes a beacon of hope, a foretaste of the heavenly Jerusalem, called to reconcile not just our churches but all peoples. This journey is guided by the Holy Spirit, who brings the early Christians to the knowledge of the truth about Jesus Christ, and who fills the early Church with signs and wonders, to the amazement of many. As they continue their journey, the Christians of Jerusalem gather with devotion to listen to the Word of God set forth in the apo...
