TODAY'S PROMISE

"But you belong to God, my dear children.

You have already won a victory over those

people, because the Spirit who lives in you is

greater than the spirit who lives in the world."  

(1 John 4:4 NLT)

TODAY'S PROMISE

"And the one sitting on the throne said,

Look, I am making everything new!'  And

then he said to me, 'Write this down, for what

I tell you is trustworthy and true.' And he also

said, 'It is finished!  I am the Alpha and the 

Omega - the Beginning and the End.  To all who

are thirsty I will give freely from the springs of 

the water of life.  All who are victorious will

inherit all these blessings, and I will be their

God, and they will be my children."

(Revelation 21:5 - 7 NLT)

TODAY'S PROMISE

"And He said to them, "Truly I say to you,

there is no one who has left house or wife

or brothers or parents or children, for the

sake of the kingdom of God who will not

receive many times as much at this time

and in the age too come, eternal life."  

(Luke 18:29,30 NASB)

TODAY'S PROMISE

"But the mercy of the Lord is from

everlasting to everlasting upon them

that fear him, and his righteousness

unto children's children;" 

(Psalms 103:17 KJV)

SO YOU ARE WISE!

So you are wise and act wisely.

How do you define wise?

What is wise to you?

Does you opinion of "wise" match up with

God's opinion of wise.  God, you know, the

one who gives you life and breath.  The one

we will all answer to when we pass on from

this life.

Consider God's opinion of wise

.

"The Lord looks down from heaven

upon the children of men, to see if

there are any that act wisely,

that seek after God."

(Psalms 14:2 RSV)

SAVING MONEY

"Here is a terrible thing that I have seen in this world:
people save up their money for a time when they may need it,
and then lose it all in some bad deal and end up with nothing
left to pass on to their children.
We leave this world just as we entered it - with nothing.
In spite of all our work there is nothing we can take with us."
(Ecclesiastes 5:13 - 15 TEV)


"Be wise enough not to wear yourself out trying to get rich.
Your money can be gone in a flash, as if it had grown wings
and flown away like an eagle.
(Proverbs 23:4,5 TEV)

TODAY'S PROMISE

"See how much the Father has loved us!

His love is so great that we are called God's children

- and so, in fact, we are.  This is why the world does not

know us; it has not known God.  My dear friends,

we are now God's children,  but it is not yet clear

what we shall become.  but we know that when Christ 

appears, we shall be like him, because we shall

see him as he really is.  Everyone who has this hope 

in Christ keeps himself pure,

just as Christ is pure."

(1 John 3:1-3 

******************

"The promises of the Lord can be trusted;

they are as genuine as silver refined

seven times in the furnace."

(Psalms 12:6 GNT)

1. Meditate on God's Promises.

2. Plead the Promises at the throne of Grace.

3. Act in Faith that God Will Perform His Promises.

(William Gurnall)

THE LORD'S HERITAGE

I can still see it.

That small casket

there in Oakdale

Memorial Park.

In that casket was

Priscilla. My first

born. My own flesh

and blood.

About a year latter

there was another

small casket at Oakdale Memorial Park.
It was my second born, Patrick.

Both had been "still born". Young fellow that I was, it still was

not obvious to me that God was dealing with me. That is another

story. But in time it was settled when I yielded and permitted Jesus

to not only be my saviour, but my Lord.

By this time it became a question to the wife and I if we could even

have children.

But there is also another scene in my mind. I can still see that small

room where we met for prayer and Bible study before Sunday

School.

I do not know who was leading that morning. Nor what they said.

But I do remember the two chapters that were used and the portions

of them that God used to speak to my heart.

"Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb

is his reward. As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children
of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they
shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate."

-Psalms 127:3-5 (KJV)

"Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house:

thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

Behold that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD."

-Psalms 128:3,4 (KJV)

You almost know the rest of the story. The Lord gave us children.

And you know kids. They grow up and have kids.

But the chapter did not stop there. It's last verse says,

"Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children and peace upon Israel.

-Psalms 128:6 (KJV)

By the way,

I have seen my children.

I have seen my children's children.

And I have seen my children's children's children .

Praise God for that.

ISN'T GOD GOOD?
