His Hand on Me 5/1 Monday Meditation

I know the Lord laid His hand on me. It's heaven on earth.  Heaven has begun with me.  I am happy now -- and free.  Since the Comforter has come.  The Comforter, the great revealer of the Kingdom. He came to give us the more abundant life.  God has designed the plan, nothing really matters if the Lord loves us.  God sets great store by us.  The pure in heart see God...



"If the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He shall quicken your mortal bodies by His Spirit that dwelleth in you (Romans 8:11).

God Has Forgotten 4/28 Friday Faith

The devil makes you remember the day you failed, you would give the world to forget.  God has forgotten.  When He forgives, He forgets.  God wants to make us pillars, honorable, strong, holy...  God wants you to know that you are saved, cleansed, delivered, and marching to victory.  Faith to believe!  God has a plan!  Set your affections on things above, get into the heavenly places with Christ.

God's Word Is Power 4/27 Thursday Thoughts

God's Word is a tremendous word, a productive word producing what it is.  Power; producing God-likeness.  We get to heaven through the Word of God, we have peace through the blood of His cross.  Redemption is ours through the knowledge of the Word.  I am saved because God's Word says so.



That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.  -Romans 10:9

Through Faith in His Name 4/26 Wednesday Wisdom

The name of Jesus is so marvelous.  Peter and John had no conception of all that was in that name; neither had the man, lame from his mother's womb who was laid daily at the gate; but they had faith to say, "In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk."  And as Peter took him by the right hand, and lifted him up, immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength, and he went into the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God.  God wants you to see more of this sort of thing done.  How can it be done?  Through His name, through faith in His name, through faith which is by Him.

Power to Transform Anyone 4/25 Tuesday Truth

Peter and John were helpless, were illiterate, they had no college education.  They had had some training with fish, and they had been with Jesus.  To them had come a wonderful revelation of the power of the name of Jesus.  They had handed out the bread and fish after Jesus had multiplied them.  They had sat at the table with Him, and John had often gazed into His face.  Peter had often to be rebuked, but Jesus manifested His love to Peter through it all.  Yea, He loved Peter, the wayward one.  Oh, He's a wonderful lover!  I have been wayward, I have been stubborn; I had an unmanageable temper at one time, but how patient He has been.  I am here to tell you that there is power in Jesus and in His wondrous name to transform anyone, to heal anyone.

Peace Within, Persecution Without 4/21 Friday Faith

The Lord Jesus came to bring peace, and soon after you get peace within you get persecution without.  If you remain stationary, the devil and his agents will not disturb you much.  But when you press on and go the whole length with God, the enemy has you as a target.  But God will vindicate you in the midst of the whole thing.

The Exceeding Greatness of His Power 4/20 Thursday Thoughts

 that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power  20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places,  21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.
22 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church,  23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.



--Ephesians 1:18-23

Our Final Victory 4/19 Wednesday Wisdom

Our Final Victory

⁵⁰ Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. ⁵¹ Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— ⁵² in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. ⁵³ For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. ⁵⁴ So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”^[g]

⁵⁵ “O Death, where is your sting?^[h]
O Hades, where is your victory?”^[i]

⁵⁶ The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. ⁵⁷ But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁵⁸ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.


--1 Corinthians 15:50-58

The Risen Christ, Our Hope 4/18 Tuesday Truth

The Risen Christ, Our Hope

¹² Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? ¹³ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen. ¹⁴ And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty. ¹⁵ Yes, and we are found false witnesses of God, because we have testified of God that He raised up Christ, whom He did not raise up—if in fact the dead do not rise. ¹⁶ For if the dead do not rise, then Christ is not risen. ¹⁷ And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! ¹⁸ Then also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. ¹⁹ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.

The Last Enemy Destroyed

²⁰ But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. ²¹ For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. ²² For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive. ²³ But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ’s at His coming. ²⁴ Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power. ²⁵ For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet. ²⁶ The last enemy that will be destroyed is death.

  1 Corinthians 15:12-26  (NKJV)

Jesus' Appearance to His Disciples 4/17 Monday Meditation

⁴⁴ Then He said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.” ⁴⁵ And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.
⁴⁶ Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise^[h] from the dead the third day, ⁴⁷ and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. ⁴⁸ And you are witnesses of these things. ⁴⁹ Behold, I send the Promise of My Father [the gift of the Holy Spirit] upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem^[i] until you are endued with power from on high.”


--Luke 24

Good Friday; Son of God 4/14 Friday Faith

³⁷ And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.

³⁸ Then the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. ³⁹ So when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!”

-- Mark 15

The Hour of the Last Supper 4/13 Maundy Thursday Thoughts

"And when the hour was come, He sat down and the twelve apostles with Him."  "When the hour was come" -- that was the most wonderful hour.  There never was an hour, never will be an hour like that hour.  What hour was it?  It was an hour of the passing of creation under the blood. It was an hour of destruction of demon power.  It was an hour appointed of life coming out of death.  It was an hour when all that ever lived came under a glorious covering of the blood.  It was an hour when all the world was coming into emancipation by the blood.  It was an hour in the world's history when it emerged from dark chaos, a wonderful hour!  Praise God for that hour!  Was it a dark hour?  It was a dark hour for Him, but a wonderful light dawned for us.  It was tremendously dark for the Son of Man, but praise God He came through it.

On This Day of Holy Week ... 4/12 Wednesday Wisdom

On this day of Holy Week, Jesus said:






37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.  38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,  39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.  40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left.  41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left.  42 Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour[f] your Lord is coming.  43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into.  44 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.



-- Matthew 24

The Withered Fig Tree 4/11 Tuesday Truth

It was on this day (Monday) of Holy Week that Jesus said::

 

¹⁸ Now in the morning, as He returned to the city, He was hungry. ¹⁹ And seeing a fig tree by the road, He came to it and found nothing on it but leaves, and said to it, “Let no fruit grow on you ever again.” Immediately the fig tree withered away.

 

²⁰ And when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree wither away so soon?”

²¹ So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done. ²² And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”

--Matthew 21

Count on Persecution 4/10 Monday Meditation

The devil and his priests of religion will always get stirred when a man is filled with the Spirit and does things in the power of the Spirit.  And persecution is the greatest blessing to a church.  When we have persecution we will have purity.  If you desire to be filled with the Spirit you can count on one thing, and that is persecution.

Life Through the Word 4/7 Friday Faith

The Psalmist said that he had hid God's Word in his heart, that he might not sin against Him; and you will find that the more of God's Word you hide in your heart, the easier it is to live a holy life.  He also testified that God's Word had quickened him; and, as you receive God's Word into your being, your whole physical being will be quickened and you will be made strong.  As you receive with meekness the Word, you will find faith upspringing within.  And you will have life through the Word.

Partake of His Word 4/6 Thursday Thoughts

None of you can be strong in God unless you are diligently and constantly hearkening to what God has to say to you through His Word.  You cannot know the power and the nature of God unless you partake of His inbreathed Word.  Read it at morn and at night, and at every opportunity you get.

In Every Weakness 4/5 Wednesday Wisdom

In every weakness God will be your strength.  You who need His touch, remember that He loves you.  Look, wretched, helpless, sick one, away to the God of all grace, whose very essence is love, who delights to give liberally all the inheritance of life and strength and power that you are in need of.

Some Little Thing 4/4 Tuesday Truth

There are many good people, people who mean well, but they have no power to do anything for God. There is just some little thing that came in their hearts years ago, and their faith has been paralyzed ever since.  Bring everything to the light.  God will sweep it all away if you will let Him.  Let the precious blood of Christ cleanse from all sin.  If you will but believe, God will meet you and bring into your lives the sunshine of His love.

Feeding the Five Thousand 4/3 Monday Meditation

Another preacher said, "It was an easy thing for Jesus to feed the people with five loaves.  The loaves were so big in those days that it was a simple matter to cut them into a thousand pieces each.  But He forgot that one little boy brought those five loaves all the way in his lunch basket.  There is nothing impossible with God.  All the impossibility is with us when we measure God by the limitations of our unbelief.  We have a wonderful God, a God whose ways are past finding out, and whose grace and power are limitless.
