“WOW!!!”… Oooooh, Awwww

July 5 & 6, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Matthew 8:27
But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!

 

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

 

     “WOW!!!” … WOW would probably be a word we would use today to describe what the men were feeling when the Bible says they “marvelled.” It would be one of those glassy-eyed stares with your mouth wide-open sort of moments. You know, sort of like when a magician does a magic trick you cannot understand. You say oooooh, aww, and think, how did he do that? However, this was more than magic. Jesus was not trying to play a trick of any type on them. There was no sleight of hand here. This was a miracle.

 

     Some in that day may have thought it to be part of a paranormal experience. That possibly Jesus was a witch or sorcerer, or maybe even a demon. However, Jesus proved that untrue as he cast out demons. No, this was not a demonic show.

 

     Some may have thought He was one of the many gods people worshiped at the time. Nevertheless, He was continually pointing to one God, His Father in Heaven. He was not “a god.” He was and is today, “THE GOD.” They marveled, they ooohed, they awed, they stood in amazement at what Jesus could do. Because He did, what only He could do. Be GOD.

 

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

 

     Do you remember when you realized you were a sinner? When did you understand that the only hope of your salvation was Jesus and His atoning blood from Calvary? Do you remember humbling your heart to Him and asking Him to forgive all your sins? Do you remember how you “marveled” at what He had done in that split second? Removing your sin and setting you free. Do you remember? That my friend was a real “WOW!!!” … Oooooh, Awwww moment in life. ONLY GOD CAN DO THAT!

 

do you remember that
“WOW!!!” … Oooooh, Awwww moment in your life?

 

IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:

Ask yourself, what are MY THOUGHTS concerning this Passage and today’s Devotion?

 

Do I find within this reading a CHALLENGE for my life?

 

What are one or two things I WILL DO today or this week to accept that CHALLENGE?

OUCH!!! Hey, Turn On A Light!

July 4, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Proverbs 4:18-19
But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble
.

 

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

 

     Have you ever gotten up in the middle of the night, walked a few steps, and then, “BAM” you slammed your toe into something? Not something that has been moved there recently, but something that had been there all along and you just misjudged the distance in the dark. If you’re anything like me, just remembering those times brings shivers down your spine. Now just for the sake of completely ruining your day, let’s imagine you finally get over the shock and pain of slamming your toe, you take a few more steps, and “BAM” you do it again, to the same toe. Can you imagine the pain? Sure, you can, and you do not like the thought of it, right?

 

     What caused the pain? Was it the furniture? NO! It had always been there. Was it your ability to walk? NO! You were walking just fine. (That is until you started hopping around holding your swollen toe.) So, what was it? It was simply your desire to try to make it to your destination without the light on. If you had turned on the light, the likelihood of you banging your toe would have been greatly reduced. Why, because with the light turned on you can clearly see everything around you.

 

     A lost person lives this way daily. They crash into one sin after another. All because they refuse to allow the light of God’s Word to shine in their life.

 

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

 

     Revelations 21 talks of never needing the sun in heaven because Jesus will be the light there. Those who are saved shall walk in that light. The good news for the saved is that we can walk in that light today. Psalm 119:105 says, Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Jesus is the light of the world. If you will but trust Him and His Word, he will keep you from falling into the darkness of sin.

 

How has the light of God’s Word helped you this week?

Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep
July 3, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Psalm 3:5
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

 

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

 

     To sleep, for most people, seems like such an easy thing to do. However, have you ever considered for a moment, just how sleep happens? You close your eyes, your mind sort of wanders off and your body rests. During this entire time, without one thought of your own, your heart continues to beat. Thump, thump, thump, thump, all through the night. You continue breathing, taking in the oxygen a body needs to survive, and yet you are not even aware of it. All your blood flows through miles of veins to all the parts of your body and yet you never helped it at all. You move around in the bed, toss, tumble, move your eyes, and never notice a thing. Some of you even talk and walk in your sleep and have no recollection of it at all. Almost one-third of each day without realizing it, you have given over total control of your body to God. In addition, if you are reading this, well, it is evident He did a fairly good job last night.

 

     If we can trust God in our sleep to sustain our lives, why is it so hard when we are awake to allow Him the same amount of control? Oh yes, I know… because somehow, we think we can handle it now, right? Ever heard someone say about children, “They are such little angels when they are sleeping…” What they mean is they are not doing anything wrong at all. With God in total control, our days and nights could be so similar.

 

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

     

     Whether we want to admit it or not, God is still in control during the day. If you think He is not in complete control, then take this little test. Stop what you are doing and make your blood stop flowing for just one second. Could not do it? God could if He wanted to. I told you He was in control. If He controls what you cannot do every day, why not let Him have control of what you can?

 

What might you allow God to do through you today?

It Is Good To Know He Is Always There

July 2, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

2 Chronicles 7:15
Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.

 

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

 

     Children are such a blessing to watch. Whether they are yours or those of family and friends, they all eventually want to be independent. Well, sort of. At about one to two years of age, they begin to walk away from mom and dad just a little bit. They will often hold onto a table or the sofa, but all the while they are toddling around, they continue to look back at Mom and Dad with that drooling smile. Almost as if to say, “Look at me, look what I can do, am I doing this right?” On the other hand, maybe their little eyes were saying, “Are you still there, are you still watching me? Because you know I might fall?” Then when they do fall, you step over and help them up, tell them it is ok, and get them right back to walking just as they were before they fell.

 

     As a child of God, we should be something like that. Always looking to our Heavenly Father saying, “Look at me, look what I can do, am I doing this right?” All the while also saying, “I always want to know you’re right there. You know I might fall.” The best thing is that when we do stumble in our Christian life and fall, He is right there to pick us up. He tells us it will be ok and teaches us why we fell. Then, He gets us right back to walking just the way we should.

 

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

     God has told us that His eyes are upon us, and His ears are listening. It is so wonderful to know our Heavenly Father cares, and that He is always there.

 

How much do you rely on the hands of God to catch you and hold you?

JESUS – A Very Special Name

July 1, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Matthew 1:21
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

 

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

 

     “Thou shalt call His name JESUS”…

 

     So much is wrapped up in that name.

 

     He is our Redeemer, as He took us from a life of sin and brought us to the Father.

 

     He is our Sanctification, in that He made us clean and continues to perfect us until He comes to get us, “His bride.”

 

     He is our Propitiation, which means that He is our total and complete payment for all our sin debt.

 

     He is our Justification, so when we reach the golden streets of Glory, we are made ready to enter by His work on the cross.

 

     However, most of all He is our Salvation. He is our salvation from all our sins. When we go to the cross for the forgiveness of our sins, He covers them with his precious perfect blood. He is also our salvation from the dominion and power of sin in our everyday life here on this earth. In addition, He is our salvation from a place called hell, which was never created for us. However, without His sacrifice applied to our lives, we were heading there as fast as we could go. JESUS… What a special name. What a special friend. What a Saviour.

 

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

     What does the name of JESUS mean to you today? Have you ever called on Him to be your Saviour? Do you pray in the powerful name of Jesus daily? Has Jesus made a difference in your life? If not, He can, and He will if you just call on Him today. JESUS!

 

When you think of the name JESUS referring to Christ,
what comes to mind?
