Daily Scripture Reading: Jeremiah 2:13 KJV Jeremiah 2:13 KJV(13)  For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water. John 7:37 KJV(37)  In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. Today’s Devotional Is BROKEN CISTERNS It is a terrible mistake to overlook the fountain that freely flows to quench our thirst and to empty out broken cisterns which lead to disappointment and despair. These words may be read by many, each with a soul-thirst for satisfaction. They are all within reach of God, whose … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: Matthew 13:47-49 KJV Matthew 13:47-49 KJV(47)  Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:(48)  Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.(49)  So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, Today’s Devotional Is OUR ETERNAL DESTINY This parable is very different from the one about the tares. However, there are similarities. The latter teaches us that in the current age it is impossible to distinguish the good from the bad in the Church of … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: John 13:37 KJV John 13:37 KJV(37)  Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake. Today’s Devotional Is RESOLUTION AND DEFEAT PETER’S IMPULSIVE spirit cannot withstand delay – “Lord! Why can I not follow Thee now?” It is easier to jump into battle where passion and excitement may be trusted to make us forget about pain and discomfort than to remain at our posts through long, cold nights on sentry duty. He miscalculated the power and might of the Adversary. It was the hour when darkness would triumph. It was the hour when the prince of the world would make the greatest effort to keep his … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: James 5:17 KJV James 5:17 KJV(17)  Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. Today’s Devotional Is TRANSFORM YOUR PASSION INTO PRAYER We can easily believe that Elijah was driven by the same passions we are when we read about him. Scripture reveals that his amazing career was not a result of his passion but rather his devotion to prayer. Although Elijah was capable of the same passion and earnestness that we all possess, he refused to use lower energies to achieve his life’s work. Instead, he set himself … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: Matthew 6:9 KJV Matthew 6:9 KJV(9)  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Today’s Devotional Is MODEL PRAYER THE LORD’S PRAYER, Christ Himself, is a temple that has been built. As we repeat these wonderful sentences, we can’t help but think about the multitudes of people who have been molded by them and have put their hearts into these petitions. Our Lord did not insist on prayer always, but was praying constantly to His Father. His disciples were well aware of His tendency to go away for secret prayer and had seen His transfiguring glory on many occasions. It would be a joy for us if God’s fellowship … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: 1 Samuel 6:20 KJV 1 Samuel 6:20 KJV(20)  And the men of Bethshemesh said, Who is able to stand before this holy LORD God? and to whom shall he go up from us? Today’s Devotional Is STANDING BEFORE GOD The phrase “to stand before God” refers to a high-toned religious lifestyle. It includes God’s knowledge, His ability to execute His commands and the ability of interceding for others. This phrase was beloved by Elijah because it reflected the spirit of his great career. We certainly hope that this can be used to describe our life’s attitude and spirit. This must not be an idle wish or a wishful dream. It must be closely linked to great principles. … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: Psalms 8:3-4 KJV Psalms 8:3-4 KJV(3)  When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;(4)  What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? Today’s Devotional Is GOD’S CONDESCENSION FOR MAN CERTAIN writers ridiculed the notion that the Almighty Ruler can know anything about a cheese-mite like man because he inhabits the stellar space. He said, “Put yourself into the planetary space, just a dot, and you will see that the Almighty Maker can discern thee!” But greatness is not bigness. The value of an infant in a cradle or royal palace is greater than that of his … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: Psalms 73:28 Psalms 73:28 KJV(28)  But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works. Today’s Devotional Is THE VIEWPOINT OF SANCTUARY The GOOD Asaph was very troubled by the wealth of the wicked of his day. He resisted speaking out about the subject, fearing that it might affect their religious lives. But the iron pierced his soul. There were others who appeared to be at ease even though they were pointing their noses at the heavens. But he was plagued every day, even though he washed his hands and cleansed his heart. He entered the Sanctuary of God one … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: Matthew 6:6 KJV Matthew 6:6 KJV(6)  But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. Today’s Devotional Is THE SECRET PLACE OF PRAYER PRAYER must have deliberateness, the inner chamber, secret place, fixed time, and the shut door against distractions and intruders. The Father awaits us in that secret place. He is there just as much as He is in Heaven. Be reverent as Moses was when he took his shoes off! Trust is key, as you will be having an audience with One who has infinite compassion and love. Don’t … Read Bible Verses

Daily Scripture Reading: Hosea 6:3 KJV Hosea 6:3 KJV(3)  Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth. Today’s Devotional Is KNOWING AND FOLLOWING SOME PEOPLE DO NOT WANTED TO GET MORE INTO GOD’S HEALTH. They have never seen the heavenly vision. They believe religion is merely repeating the same prayers they’ve used for years and reading a portion of Scripture. While this is better than nothing they can’t draw a parallel between David and the hunted deer who pants for the water-brook or the blessing of our Lord for those … Read Bible Verses
