Daily Devotions

We must be sensitive to God’s Word for it provides instruction for our lives. Consequently, we must both read the Word and apply it to our daily lives. The Word will always have something to say about our journey in this life. No matter how many times you read the same verse, God will reveal…

Today’s devotion assures us that when we follow God, we can never go wrong. God knows the path we take and He brings that which He has in store for us, into fruition. The songwriter wrote, “We can depend on God.” When we follow Him, we will never go wrong. Oh, yes, roadblocks, detours and…

When problems come our way, as they surely will, we can never get tired of waiting. We must continue to be persistent on our calling on God. God is true to His Word. What He promises, He will deliver. It is true that they that wait   upon the Lord will be renewed in strength. It…

Yesterday’s devotion spoke of honoring God by being in right position. Today, we follow up with, “Give God Your Life”. God wants all of us; not part of us, but all of us. We need to offer the best that we have. We need to remember that God wants our hearts, minds and entire being.…

As believers, we cannot ignore those in need. Countless people cry out every day for help. In far too many cases, we turn a deaf ear. We cannot depend upon the government to help. I am sad to say that the government often ignores these people. As God’s people, we need to hear their cries.…

Thanks, be unto God that our ways are not His ways. His ways are holy, righteous, and full of love and grace. We must be willing to concede that our ways should ultimately become His ways. We cannot claim to be His and continue to do things our way. We need to change some of…

Today’s devotion raises the question: Do you recognize the Shepherd? The Shepherd knows us. Do you know the Shepherd? Can you recognize His voice? Do you know when He is speaking? Are you aware of His presence? How does He see you? Not just on Sunday in the sanctuary, but throughout the week in your…

I have shared this saying before, yet it is worth repeating. When I was a boy growing up, we said, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me.” That is absolutely false! Words do hurt and cut into the fabric in the soul. We need to be careful of the…
