Daily Reading – Ezekiel 13-16 / James 1

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    Why is it some people continuously serve God with such joy, while others do very little and grumble when they do? The problem may be their time in the Bible. You might be saying, WHAT? Let me try to explain.

    James 1:22 says, “…be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only,” Not being busy, but busy doing God’s Word. Verse 25 says, “…whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.” They continue in God’s Word and do the work it says to do. People doing so find fulfilling God’s Word a blessing and receive added blessings from God. That is blessing upon blessing. A blessing serving and blessings from God.

Daily Reading – Ezekiel 9-12 / Hebrews 13

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Hebrews 13:15-16 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    During this time of Thanksgiving, the idea of being Thankful is on everyone’s mind. But thankful to who, for what, how, and why? Today’s verses can help us.

   ● To Whom? Thankful to God continually.

   ● For What? For Him, Jesus. It is by Him we are able to offer our sacrifice of praise.
      Without Him we have no access to the Throne of Grace.

   ● How? By doing good for others and sharing or communicate what He has done in us.

   ● Why? For with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

So how will you show God Thankfulness this year?

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.

Daily Reading – Ezekiel 5-8 / Hebrews 12

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    The Bible says God is the Alpha and Omega, the first and last letter of the Greek alphabet. Revelation 22:13 says, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.” Today’s passage gives the same idea when it says He is the author and finisher of our faith. However, He is more than a start and an ending; He is everything between as well. 

    Today’s verse also says, He sat down at the right hand of God. What is He doing? Hebrews 7:25 says; “…he ever liveth to make intercession for them.” He is serving as a mediator for man before God during the between times. I thank Jesus for salvation’s beginning and heaven’s eternal home. 

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

Yet shouldn’t we thank Him for all the “Between times” too?

Daily Reading – Ezekiel 1-4 / Hebrews 11

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    FAITH! The cornerstone of a believer’s life. Today’s verse says it’s impossible to please God without faith.

    First, if you are going to be saved, you must believe there is a God. Not just any god. You must believe the God of the Bible, in heaven, is the one and only true God. You cannot be saved if you do not believe in GOD. Secondly, you must believe He is the one who rewards you in life. Salvation itself is a reward through Jesus His Son, to those who will diligently seek Him.

    Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Faith has evidence you can see in the Christian life. 

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

Are you living evidence of this FAITH for others?

Daily Reading – Lamentations 3-5 / Hebrews 10

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    Once you pay off your loan at the bank for your car or home, how many more payments must you make? The answer is zero. No more payments due, and if it were a reputable bank, no more payments would be accepted. If you give them another payment, would you expect a bigger car or home? Of course not.

    Jesus, when He died in our place paid our sin debt completely. No other payment is due. It is paid in full. Neither can we earn more salvation by doing anything else. We cannot work or do well and earn any more salvation than we already have. There was one, and only one payment for all sin. As the song says, “Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe.” Another song says, “Isn’t Jesus my Lord wonderful.”
