MAY 8, 2026—To The End Of The Earth

To The End Of The Earth

Luke 22:33-34 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death. And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

   

When we accepted Christ as Saviour, for most, it was a moment of exuberance. Our sins are blotted out. Our name is written in the book of Life. With joy, we thought, I will follow God to the end of time. Then life happens, and we find ourselves in the midst of sin. Never planning to be there again, but there we are.

    The disciples felt the same way about Jesus when they said, We will follow you anywhere. Jesus said, Within a day, you will not. I am so glad for 1 John 1:9, which says if we ask God to forgive us, He is always ready to do so. As much as we love God, He loves us more. He, too, wants us to go to the end of time with Him.

MAY 7, 2026—Pick Me, Pick Me

Pick Me, Pick Me

Luke 22:27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

    When choosing teams for any sport, if you get around a bunch of kids, you will always hear the same thing. Pick me, pick me! Everyone wants to feel needed and special. Often, you will hear someone who is belittling their childhood say, “I was always the last one chosen for sports and games.”

    Jesus tells us not to be concerned with who is first or last. Using Himself as an example, He asks, Who is greater, people at a table eating or servants serving the table? We might all say those who are dining. Then Jesus says, But I am here and am serving. None of us is greater than Jesus. Being a servant does not make us last; it is who we serve that matters.

MAY 6, 2026—Look Up

Look Up

Luke 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

    What a joy to be present at the birth of our children. To witness God’s miracle of life. We were excited and had planned for the day they would be born and come home. While the birth itself was exciting, the process of birth included a lot of pain. With each contraction getting closer, so was the arrival of this new life. There was a point we thought, How much longer can this pain go on? Then came the Miracle of life.

    With things the way they are in today’s world, many Christians are asking, how much longer can this go on? However, Jesus said, “And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, lift up your heads; For your redemption draweth nigh.”

MAY 5, 2026—Watch Israel

Watch Israel

Luke 21:24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

    The nation of Israel has always been the center of controversy. It seems people either love or hate Israel. There is very little middle ground. Today, the people of Israel have a nation again. However, it is not a total Jewish nation, as some may assume. In the center of Jerusalem, there is a Muslim Mosque. Muslim cemeteries border the walls of this great city today. There is still a Gentile oversight in Jerusalem today.

    Jesus warned in Luke 21:24 that everyone should be watching Israel and Jerusalem in particular. The times of the Gentiles will only be fulfilled when Christ returns to establish His Kingdom. Jesus brings peace into the believing hearts today and will be Israel’s only real Peace.

MAY 4, 2026—Seated On The Throne

Seated On The Throne

Luke 20:42-43 And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

    Where is Jesus today? He is exactly where He told the Scribes, Sadducees, and Chief Priests He would be. He is seated at the right hand of God the Father.

    Jesus reminds them that David had given them a hint in the book of Psalms when he said, The LORD (which is God the Father) said unto David’s Lord (which is Jesus the Christ), sit at His right hand until He brought the world into subjection. This phrase is repeated throughout the scriptures. God clearly wants us to know where Jesus is today. David made this statement a bit more personal. He calls Him “My Lord.” That is because Jesus was also seated on the throne of David’s heart. He was his personal Lord.
