Empty Religion

People who adhere to these empty religious forms (Con. 2:18;
2 Tim. 3:5) imagine that they worship and receive divine guidance,
while in their unbelief and rejection of truth, they merely
worship the "god of this world."
Robert B.Thieme Jr
 
Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove,
exhort, with great patience and instruction.
2 Timothy 4:2
 
"Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy."
Matthew 5:7

Father, help me be as gentle and kind to others as I want you to be to me.
In Christ name I pray

Faith And Gods Grace

Religion and grace are mutually exclusive. The need is the same
in every age. The solution is also the same: "Believe in the Lord
Jesus, and you shall be saved"
Acts16:31b.
 
The unbeliever who adds anything to faith in Christ cancels the
efficacy of that faith, and one who places his faith in anything
but Christ is simply not saved. Apart from faith alone in Christ
alone, man remains a pawn in Satan's gambit.
Robert B. Thieme Jr
 
"The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever."
Psalm 37:18

Lord, help me to apply as best I can with the awareness that you stand ready to help.
In Christ name I pray

A Absolute

Carnality is the absolute status of a believer out of fellowship
with God, without the filling of the Holy Spirit, because of
unconfused  sin in the life.
 
And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who
are perishing, in whose case the god of this world has  blinded
the minds of the unbelieving, that they might not see the light
of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
2 Cor. 4:3-4
"I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go:
I will guide thee with mine eye."
Psalm 32:8

Lord, I am unworthy of all the kindnesses you have showered
upon me in the past. I thank you for your great love to me.
Help me to trust you for what I need.

I believe this with all my heart and soul, in Christ name I pray.

For It Is Written

As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me,
And every tongue shall give praise to God.
 
Romans 14:11
 
Each one of us shall give account of himself  to God.
 
Romans 14:12
 
"Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be the children of God."

Dear Lord, help me today and every day to be a peacemaker for those
around me. Help me to do good, to seek peace and pursue it.
In Christ name I pray

God Decides When

No one knows at what point in the future the Rapture will occur--
setting dates is fallacious. God alone decides the timing.
Matt. 24:42
 
All we know is that it will happen suddenly, "in a moment, in
the twinkling of an eye"
1 Cor. 15:52
 
"Forgive, and ye shall be forgiven."
Luke 6: 37

Heavenly Father, since I want to be forgiven, help me be forgiving.
In Christ name I pray

Church Age Completion

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God;
and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we who are alive
and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds
to meet the Lord in the air, and thus we shall always be with
the Lord.
 
1 Thess. 4:16-17
"Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men."
Matthew 4: 19

Father God, send forth laborers into your harvest, and I want to be a laborer.
In Christ name I pray

Deeds Forgiven

"Blessed are those whose lawless deeds have been forgiven,
and whose sins have been covered. Blessed is the man whose
 sin the Lord will not take into account"
 
Romans 4: 7,8
 
"Cast thy burden upon the Lord; and He shall sustain thee: He shall never
suffer the righteous to be moved."
Psalm 55:22

Our trust is in Thee, O God. Let us never give in to discouragement.
In Christ name I pray
