Daily Devotion – Moments That Matter

January 7 & 8, 2023
January 7 – Daily Reading – Genesis 15 – 17 / Matthew 6:1-15
January 8 – NO READING

GOD’S WORD:

Genesis 15:6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.

GETTING INTO GOD’S WORD:

    How does a person get saved from sin? How did a person in the Old Testament get saved when Jesus was not even born yet? How will people in the tribulation be saved when the Holy Spirit is not continually present, convicting the hearts or man? The answer has always been and will always be the same. Our salvation from the curse of sin is our FAITH in God and His Word

    Abram, soon to be renamed to Abraham which means “father of many nations”, simply took God at His Word. He put all his faith into God’s promises. This is amazing, since he and his wife were very old, but he took God at His Word that from him God would make a nation so large that they could not be counted. In Romans 4 it talks about Abraham’s faith in God’s promise. Romans 4:20-22 “He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.” Our Salvation from sin today is also by faith in God’s Word. God said in John 20:31 “But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.” Our Salvation from the curse of sin has always been through Christ and will always be Our Faith in God and His Word. 

GETTING GOD’S WORD INTO ME:

    Abraham looked forward in faith. We must look upward in Faith. One day in glory, we will look back to today, and rejoice in our faith.  

Hebrews 11:1 says, “faith is the substance of things hoped for…”the question is, in whom do you place your FAITH?

THE WEEK IN REVIEW:

    We’ve seen over the past week, God’s creation of all things and He said it was very good. (Gen 1:31) Yet in just 17 Chapters of the first book we have seen;

● He Made You Special
● The Separation Of Sin
● The Saturation Of Sin
● The Selfishness Of Sin
● The Solution For Sin
● Our Salvation From Sin

As I pray you have seen and will continue to see throughout the pages of the Bible, “Sin Is No Match For God.”

Enjoy today with your church and hear what God has prepared in the heart of His man for you this week.

See you tomorrow.  

SUNDAYS:

    Today we suggest you read and study whatever the Lord has laid on your Pastors heart. Whatever scripture he uses for today’s messages were given to him by God for your specific needs.

Sin Is No Match For God

  Isn’t it interesting that Sunday is the last day of the weekend,
but considered the first day of the week.
It is only fitting that it be called the Lords Day,
since He is the Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end.

DECEMBER 24 & 25, 2022
Daily Reading – Zephaniah / Revelation 16-17

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Revelation 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    Have you ever gone to a store and felt you have been mistreated? Maybe at the checkout a clerk was rude and disrespectful. So, you find the store manager only to find that they do not care either. When you get home, you find the corporate address and write a letter. Not long after, you receive a letter of apology, coupons, and an assurance this will never happen again. What is the difference? The owner sincerely cares about the store’s reputation and its customers.

    Satan may be causing a lot of problems today in this old world. However, the owner has been notified. There is coming a day when the King of all kings and Lord of all lords, who cares very much for you and His testimony will say enough. 

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

Won’t that be a day?

WHAT TO DO ON SUNDAY:

     On Sundays, we encourage you to attend your local 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 to your Pastor exactly what He desires for you on that day.
