Recalled For A Defect

MAY 16 & 17, 2026
Daily Reading—1 Kings 1-2 / John 4:1-38

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

John 2:22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    It seems of late, so many things are being recalled. Baby beds, cars, and even food have been called back by the manufacturer because something wasn’t right.

    In today’s verse, we also see two different types of recalls. The first was after Jesus rose from the tomb; the disciples recalled Jesus saying He would tear down the temple, referring to His body, and rebuild it in three days. When they recalled His words, it says they believed. That was a spiritual recall of words to their memory. God has been recalling broken souls forever with His words. Our sin-filled souls need to be recalled by the creator to be made new by the blood of the Lamb of God, Jesus. But just like with any recall, it will not get fixed if we do not heed the warnings. 

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

Have you taken your soul to the Lord for the recall?

IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:

Ask yourself, what are MY THOUGHTS concerning this passage and today’s devotion?

Within this reading, do I find a CHALLENGE for my life?

What actions will I take today or this week to meet this CHALLENGE?

WHAT TO DO ON SUNDAY:

     On Sundays, we encourage you to attend your local church and listen intently to what God has prepared in your pastor’s heart. Write down all the scriptures he uses in that message. Then, when you get home, reread those passages for today’s reading. God has given your pastor exactly what He desires for you to have on that day.

Brother, Where Art Thou

MAY 15, 2026
Daily Reading—2 Samuel 23-24 / John 3

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

John 1:40-41 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    I have heard some awesome, exciting, life-changing news. Would you like to know what it is? Well, sure you would; who would not? As much as you want to hear it, the person with the news feels like a bomb is about to go off inside them until they tell someone. That is how Andrew felt as He looked for his brother.

    Good news is only news if it’s shared. Otherwise, it is just good information. TV News shows exist to tell information that they feel you might want or need to know. That is when it becomes news. The word “gospel” means GOOD MESSAGE or GOOD NEWS. However, the Gospel is not really Good News until it is shared.  

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

So, what do you think God wants you to do with the GOSPEL today?

This Little Light Of Mine

MAY 14, 2026
Daily Reading—2 Samuel 21-22 / John 2

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

John 1:7-8 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    How beautiful is the moon? Especially when it is full, and the skies are clear. Its soft yellowish light shines and lights up the dark skies. Many a romantic scene in the movies has been highlighted by the wonderful light of this moon. Yet we must remember, the moon does not shine; it reflects. There is no light in the moon; it is a reflection of the sun.

    John said that he was not “the Light” but came “to bear witness of the Light.” A reflection of the glory of God shining through him. We are told in Matthew 5:16, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your father which is in heaven.” What a privilege to shine for Him.  

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

How will you reflect the glory of God today?

Part One, Part Two

MAY 13, 2026
Daily Reading—2 Samuel 19-20 / John 1:35-51

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Luke 24:46-47 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    Christians worldwide are so grateful for the fulfilled promises of God. His greatest promise to man is that He would send a Saviour to redeem us from our sin and set our feet on a new path toward heaven. Jesus said in our verses today, this was His ultimate mission in coming to earth, and He has done His part.

    However, that was part one of a two-part statement. Part one, Jesus completed. Part two: He asks us to do. To tell the world that if they will repent, which means to turn from their sin and put their faith in Christ, their sin too will be washed in the precious blood He shed.  

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

Jesus fulfilled His part. Are we doing ours?

The Beginning And The End

MAY 12, 2026
Daily Reading—2 Samuel 16-18 / John 1:1-34

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Luke 24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

   The Gnostics of old said that Jesus was not God when He came to earth, nor when He left. In fact, there are many today who still argue that Jesus was a great man of His time, but that was it. How sad for them.

    In Luke 24:27, Jesus shared with the disciples on the road to Emmaus how the Old Testament foretold of Him. How it prophesied He would come for just a time like this! Sadly, many did not believe then, just as many do not believe now. There is another passage they ought to consider. It says in Philippians 2:10-11 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. One day they will understand.  

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

What part of Alpha and Omega don’t they get?
