August 4 Bless the Lord, O my soul; and forget not all His benefits. — Psalm 103:2

Let Us Remember And Give Thanks

“Thank you!” Two simple words that let us know we’re appreciated for what we do and who we are. When was the last time those words crossed your lips as you prayed to God? I believe the Scriptures place a great deal more emphasis upon gratitude than we realize. In fact, the Scriptures consider thankfulness and its antithesis, thanklessness, as extremely important issues. Throughout the Bible, we’re called again and... More

August 3 ‘And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River of the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.’ — Joshua 24:15

Crucial Choices

People of little resolve never accomplish anything. General Julius became Julius Caesar because he made a tough decision: He dared to cross the Rubicon, a river all Roman generals were forbidden to cross even with the smallest band of soldiers. He said, “If I cross not this river this instant then my life shall be overcome with calamities.” And laying the reins upon the neck of his horse, he plunged into the river with this cry:... More

August 2 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. ‘Eat and drink!’ he says to you, but his heart is not with you. — Proverbs 23:7

Change Your Attitude And Change Your World

A student of flying was taking his first solo flight. All went well until he had to land his plane. Suddenly, he heard a voice over the radio saying, “Correct your attitude!” He thought to himself, “My attitude? My attitude is just fine.” Because the student didn’t heed his flight instructor’s warning, he crashed his plane. After the crash, his instructor showed him this definition for... More

August 1 ‘And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.’ — Matthew 6:12

To Forgive

When was the last time someone hurt you? What has been your response to that person since that event? Are you holding onto a grudge, or have you forgiven that person for the pain he or she caused you? God clearly directs us to forgive people who have wronged us. But forgiving people is so difficult, especially when we still feel hurt by their choices. Nevertheless, we must obey God’s command. So how do we obtain a forgiving spirit,... More

July 31 Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, ‘Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.’ — Numbers 13:30

The Return Of The Spies

Have you ever faced a daunting task, one that looked not even remotely feasible? At times like this, God, who can do the impossible, wants us to have faith in His presence and in His ability to see us through. The ancient Israelites serve as an excellent example of what not to do under pressure. Faced with an overwhelming task, they failed to respond in faith. Moses had just sent twelve spies (one representative from each tribe) into the... More

July 30 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God… — 1 Thessalonians 4:16

He Shall Return

As Christians we have an incredible event to anticipate—Christ’s second coming. Why do we know this will happen? Because more than three hundred times in the New Testament, the Scriptures very boldly state that Jesus Christ will return; even more prophecies are found in the Old Testament concerning His second advent. And Jesus Himself declared it unequivocally, “I will come again, and receive you unto myself.” History... More

July 29 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. — John 15:13

When Your Love Grows Cold

As human beings we go through an enormous variety of emotions. Feelings are part of life’s color; when we don’t feel anything, life can seem flat and drab. As tough as it is to admit, loving our Lord falls in this category. While His love for us is constant and eternal, some days, because we are human and sinful beings, we don’t naturally feel a sense of love overflowing toward Him. When we find loving our Lord... More
