BOGO.....FREE

Living in a world where we are always on the lookout for the next deal. The next BOGO or FREE item at the grocery store or department outlet.

Have we forgotten that the best BOGO or FREE gift is the one God gave us, his only son to die for our sins so we can have everlasting life.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 (KJV)

Because

Of
God
Our lives have been saved!

Answer the Phone



Answer the phone, because you never know why someone is calling.


Have you ever been so busy that when the phone rings you think, “ I don’t feel like talking right now” and you ignore the call, I just want to say, “answer it”.


I recall one evening when I was ready to call it a night when the phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and thought do I really want to answer? Yes I did answer it, and I thank God for tapping me on my shoulder and saying “pick it up my daughter, she really needs you”. I remember how anxious my friend was, and how she kept apoligizing for calling so late, she mentioned that her pastor wasn’t available that night to help. All I could think was how can I be any help to her…I’m not a pastor I can’t do anything I pastor would do.. and then she finally said, “ I need someone to pray with me, Gladys and you are the only other person I knew would pray with me”. I almost cried of shame because I did not want to answer the phone.


This was the first time I’ve ever been called to pray for anyone; sure in my bible class we pray for many, I’ve had friends and family say “pray for me” but this is the first time someone has thought of me as being the one to help lead them in prayer.


What I want to share most from this is, please answer your phone, especially when you don’t think you should.


I sit here humbled by this experience and say, “ Thank you God for teaching me yet another lesson”.

Salvation for Us

The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him. Exodus 15:2 (KJV)

Let us rejoice and get on our knees and acknowledge his sacrafice. We are sinners in need of our saviour.

The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence. 2 Samuel 22:3 (KJV)

Bible Scripture


On my previous post I suggested we "wake up our Bibles" here is why it is so important that we remember how our Bible is our guide for everlasting life.


2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV) all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:


Psalm 119:105 (KJV) thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path

God Bless. Till tomorrow.

Wake Up Your Bibles

As I sit here reading and studying my devotional I remember a conversation I had with my nephew a few days ago. It goes something like this.




My six year old nephew asks, “Titi, where is my bible?” I said to him that I had placed it back in the box and put it away. He looked at me and said, “you mean it is sleeping?” I looked at him puzzled and replied, “no”. He walked away and came back a few minutes later and said, “Titi can I please wake up my bible now?” so I went into my room and retrieved his bible. He grabbed it from my hand and smiled and started dancing for joy because his bible was awake. This made me think, how often do we really open our bibles and study his word? Are our bibles sleeping more than it should? So I say to all non-Christians and Christians a like let us wake up our bibles and rejoice for our God has given us a precious book that we can live by. If ever you are in a time in your life that you think there is no answer, “Just wake up your Bibles”, and your answer will come. Praise God for his grace and mercy.
