Sing A New Song
November 29 & 30, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Ezekiel 36:26-27
A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

 

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

 

     “There’s a New Song in My Heart” is a song we have sung in church for years. However, why is there a new song? Have you somehow suddenly got a craving for Psalms and Hymns? Did all your old musical tastes just suddenly go out the window? Well, if you are like most people with music, probably not completely.

 

     Nevertheless, when you accept Christ as Saviour, there is a new desire to sing praises to God. Why? If you think about it for just a second, you will realize a song is a group of words someone put together to convey a certain idea or belief. Every song (that is any song worth anything at all) has some message. You might ask about concertos or sonnets, songs that seem to have no words. However, even these pieces of music seem to convey a mood the originator intended.

 

     Why is there a new song in your heart? Well, the answer is very simple. Jesus now resides in your heart in the person of the Holy Spirit. In John 1:14, it says that Jesus, “the Word was made flesh.” Therefore, if Jesus is in your heart, there is a new set of words in your heart that tell a new story. It is a story of love, peace, joy, and eternal life. You have a new story in your heart. Therefore, you have a new song.

 

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

      A new composer has also written the story. God has put together a song that brings joy to your soul. Sing unto the Lord a new song. Make a joyful noise unto the Lord. Let all that have breath praise His name. There is a new song in our hearts. Sing it.

 

What song might you let fill your heart today?

    There will not be a Daily Devotion sent out on Sundays. Instead, we encourage you to attend your church and listen intently to what God has prepared in the heart of your Pastor. Write down all the scriptures he uses in that message, then, when you get home, re-read those passages for today’s reading. God has given your Pastor exactly what He desires for you on that day.

God’s Mercy
November 28, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Psalm 119:124
Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

     What a brave soul it is, who looks into the face of a Holy God and says, “DEAL WITH ME.” Can you even think of walking into the courtroom of eternal life and looking at the Judge of all creation, who has the complete and true record of everything you have done, and saying, “DEAL WITH ME?” Not only does this Judge know the written record, but also every thought you have had, every word you have said, and every place you have gone. This Judge knows the deepest, darkest secrets about you.

     Then, to make matters worse, the Judge has bound Himself to handing out only one of two sentences to every person who comes into His courtroom. You will receive a sentence of either life or death. Life, if you are one of those who are found sinless. Death if you are part of the number who is not.

     Now you are standing before that Judge and saying, “DEAL WITH ME.” If God were to deal with us according to justice or give us what we deserve, we would all be bound for hell. However, because He deals with us according to His MERCY, we can find grace in the eyes of God through the applied sacrifice of His Son Jesus Christ.

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

     God’s mercy is different from man’s mercy in that when God promises mercy, His promises are forever. When we accept His Son Jesus as our Saviour, we can count on everlasting kindness from the Creator of all things. The mercy of God is not explainable, but definitely attainable. “Thank you, God, for your mercy toward me.”

What can you do today that would make God’s role as Judge easier?

Be Thankful!
November 27, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Ezekiel 33:31-33
And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness. And, lo, thou art unto them as a very lovely song of one that hath a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument: for they hear thy words, but they do them not. And when this cometh to pass, (lo, it will come,) then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.

 

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

 

     During this time of the year, with several Holidays upon us, many Christians will try to share their faith with family and friends. Many families and friends will stand by and hear your lovely words. They will nod their heads and agree with their mouth, but as soon as the celebration is over, they will not have given their life to Christ, nor will anything change in their life.

 

     What a time to rejoice and give thanks. WHAT, you might ask? Oh yes, it is a time to be very thankful to God. I am thankful it is not up to you or up to me to save a person. Salvation is the work of God. I rejoice, even though there are those who turn a deaf ear, there will also be those who listen and receive God’s love through His Son Jesus Christ. I am thankful that I will not be held accountable for what others do, only for what I do. I am thankful that a few times a year, God allows us the opportunity to share our faith and joy in Him, without feeling out of place in doing so. I am thankful that God will make Himself known in the hearts of people. Finally, I am thankful that, on occasion, He can use someone like me. We have so very much for which to be thankful.

 

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

      During this Holiday Season, let God use you. When sharing with family and friends what you are most thankful for, be sure to mention Christ and His saving power in your life. Mention that salvation is available to all. Let this be more than a Holiday, share Christ with others, and make it an occasion to remember.

 

Begin now to make a list. What are you most thankful for?
