Devotionals

Cheap grace

If we are to avoid the abuse of God’s grace, we must accept the disciplines of discipleship.

Get a life

Christ is a cause worth living for, and one worth dying for.

Testify to the truth

John testified without hesitation that Jesus was the long-promised Christ.

A perfect leader

Yes, Jesus is the perfect leader. Follow Him!

Sit and think

Silence and solitude are great blessings to the overwrought human soul.

The throne

At the end of days, Jesus will be the one sitting on the throne; He will be the focus of attention.

Father and son

Fathers are called to be significantly involved in the lives of their children.

Family pressure

Parents should never underestimate the importance of their obedience to the Lord in the development of their children.

The holy and the lowly

The Lord takes notice of the “lowly,” and it is the “hungry” who are satisfied with good things.

Believing and blessed

There’s a major difference between believing in a hunch and believing in God’s Word.

Omnipotence

Theologians use a trio of similarly difficult but noble words to describe God…

A path not known

When God is leading, the path not known leads to the safety of His loving embrace.

The call to faithfulness

Peter wrote that Christians are now “a kingdom of priests.” That means that…

Dreams and dreamers

How do you differentiate between a genuine message from God and the product of a vain imagination?

Heroes and celebrities

In today’s world, any fool can become a “hero.” But in God’s economy, a real hero is no fool!

Accountability

Faithful, sensible servants have nothing to fear—their Lord is faithful and sensible, too!

Quietness and confidence

In every situation, turn to the Lord, quietly and confidently, and expect Him to work! He will!

All the Way Home

Jesus made sure He prepared His disciples for successfully walking in the Holy Spirit.

The crowd and the core

The church’s challenge is not to draw crowd; it’s to call a core of committed believers.

Thank God it’s Monday

Our times of rest from work should be lived in conscious recognition not only of the Creator who rested, but also of His Son who rose again.

Reverence

Reverence for God is the only appropriate response to our existence.

Don’t panic, keep calm

Trusting God to act on our behalf has the advantage of turning out right every time!

The unholy city

God is “the Holy One of Israel,” and His holiness must be demonstrated and recognized.

A few good men

Life’s devastating traumas can bring about ultimate blessing…

The help of humans

Sometimes God has to take strong measures to get our attention and drive certain lessons home.

Watered-down wine

God’s firm dealings are not vindictive; His intent is to cleanse and restore.

Why invite trouble?

People who persist in rebelling and inviting God’s punishment are asking for trouble…

What God wants

What God wants is no mystery—He wants thankful, trusting, faithful children.

Nature’s God

We have nowhere to turn but to the Lord, finding the resources of life in Him alone.

Peace brokers

Not all attempts at peacemaking will succeed. But we must do our part.

Devotion

If the believer becomes nervous about the demands of devotion, he should remember its delights…

Those who will not see

Nothing is more crucial for man’s well-being in life and eternity than finding God.

Taking opportunities

There is no substitute for the compelling simplicity of the account of saving grace in your life.

The way to a man’s heart

Few things can be counted on to make a man passionate more quickly than money…

“Please hurry, Lord”

When temptations come, reaction time is cut to a minimum. That’s why prayer must be instantaneous and urgent.

Men, movements, and monuments

Christianity did not follow the “man-movement-monument” scenario…

Street smarts

While earthly treasure can become a spiritual trap and liability, it can also be a useful tool and asset.

The empty tomb

Jesus’ resurrection is the Father’s seal of validation that His death takes away our sins.

Prognostication and preparedness

Preparing for Christ’s return is imperative and pays lasting dividends.

An honest day’s pay?

Grace in the workplace should never be far from the believer’s mind, and kindness at work will never be out of place.

Fulcrum of faith, level of love

Jesus didn’t call His disciples to isolation; He called them to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world.

The Son of God

Christianity is nothing if Christ is not God incarnate; but if He is God, Christianity is everything.

The incarnate Word

The more sophisticated man becomes, the more fascinated he is with origins. He peers with ever increasing erudition into the universe…

Fired with enthusiasm

Wise leaders know how to keep the fires of enthusiasm burning while avoiding burning people out with exhaustion.

Choosing joy

If circumstances dominate our thinking, we will exhaust our energy and find ourselves joyless and despairing.

Choose your enmities

One mark of spiritual maturity is the desire to see enemies blessed, not blighted.

Alarmists

We need not embrace every prediction of gloom and doom, but God’s warnings of the consequences of sin should not be dismissed.

Wonderful truths

Happy is the person who has eyes wide open to discern, desire, and do God’s will.

Prompted prayer

The relationship between God and His children needs communication—and communication involves listening and talking.
