M A Y 1 6 “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” — John 14:27

The Legacy Of Christ

Do you ever feel that life moves too fast? Perhaps you can relate to the old saying “Stop the world—I want to get off.” Sometimes the world spins too fast; one day melds into the next; and, despite our frenzied and harried pace, we fall further and further behind on our obligations. But God doesn’t want us to live this way. He wants us to “be still and know that I am God.” Jesus says to us, “Come... More

M A Y 1 5 “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.” — Psalm 20:7

Self-Confidence Or Christ-Confidence

Let’s say you’ve come up against the toughest trial of your life, an obstacle many others have failed to overcome. (Maybe you’re facing it today.) What’s your first response? Do you forge ahead, or do you fall to your knees? Israel faced an obstacle too big for its own might to overcome; his name was Goliath. All of the armies of Israel had self-confidence until they faced this giant. Then where did their... More

M A Y 1 3 “Now therefore, give me this mountain ... It may be that the Lord will be with me, and I shall be able to drive them out as the Lord said.” — Joshua 14:12

Heroes Wanted

Suppose, as you looked for a job, you came across this ad in the classifieds: “Heroes wanted. No cowards need apply.” Would you apply for that job? Are you a hero? Most of us have never even considered this matter, but we should, because we desperately need heroes in the army of God. Over and over in Scripture, we read of valiant, mighty men and women, and we’re encouraged to follow their examples. The Bible exhorts us to... More

M A Y 1 2 “Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.” — Jeremiah 33:3

“I Will Answer You”

“Call to Me . . .” God says in Scripture, yet so many of us are slow to respond to that invitation. Why do we pray so meagerly? I believe it’s because unbelief whispers in our ears, “Your prayers won’t work. God won’t hear them. Others may come and receive all sorts of bounty from God, but not the likes of you, not the one who has so often broken His commandments. God doesn’t even want to hear from... More

M A Y 1 1 “. . . when I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice . . .” — 2 Timothy 1:5

The Crown Of A Godly Mother

What influence has your mother had on your life? If someone wanted to quote you on the impact your mother has had on you, what would you say? Many outstanding people in this world have attributed their accomplishments to their mothers. Thomas Edison, that famous inventor, wrote, “I did not have my mother long, but she cast over me an influence that has lasted all my life. The good effects of her early training I can never lose . . .... More

M A Y 1 0 “Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life.” — Proverbs 4:23

Heart Care

Have you had a heart exam recently? I don’t mean the kind in which a doctor listens to the physical health of your heart through a stethoscope. I mean an examination in which the Holy Spirit determines the spiritual state of your heart. The Bible always addresses sources of things, and as shown in Proverbs 4:23, Scripture recognizes that people are more frequently moved by their emotions than by their intellect. Our emotions influence... More

M A Y 9 “But he who endures to the end shall be saved.” — Matthew 24:13

Perseverance

Do you have stick-to-itiveness? When you come up against an obstacle, do you push through to the end? Persistent effort pays off. Paul tells us in Galatians 6:9, “And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.” What makes people decide to quit? Sometimes people quit because they feel their efforts have brought little or no success. Once, a man determined to find gold, spent... More
