Been thinking about the power of God’s Word. I am often amazed at God’s providence in sending me His Words as I need them. I read four devotions each morning. (Journey, Stand Firm, and Open Windows from Lifeway and Turning Point by David Jeremiah. I am amazed when all of the sources flow together. It is like God knew what I needed and four devotions land in my lap at the same time. To think that these devotions were written six months ago, WOW!!
Isaiah 55:11
so My word that comes from my mouth will not return to me empty, but it will accomplish what I please and will prosper in what I sent it to do. (CSB)
Last night we had five ladies for prayer meeting. When it is just us, we do talk about all kinds of situations. There is a whole lot of stuff that happens in our small community. There are drugs, alcohol, stealing, fornication. Somewhat of a devil’s playground. Yet God didn’t put a burger shack or taco hut on the corner of Maynard Road and HWY 256. He has a church building there. We meet there each Sunday.
I Corinthians 6:9-10
Don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s kingdom? Do not be deceived: No sexually immoral people, idolaters, adulterers, or males who have sex with males, no thieves, greedy people, drunkards, verbally abusive people, or swindlers will inherit God’s kingdom.
We are praying for our community. We have a list of our neighbors and a map of our community and our state. We are actively seeking God’s protection over His children and salvation for the lost. Our neighbors are lost and dying. The field of Wright, Arkansas, is ready to harvest. We are in a spiritual war, and the devil and his demons throw darts. We must be armed with the Sword of the Lord. His WORD.
There are many translations of the Holy Bible. Modern versions have left verses out. Makes you wonder if anything was put in that changes the whole story of Jesus. I, nevertheless, believe every WORD uttered from the mouth of God…even if a human has come along and changed something. In other words, I believe what HE says even if I don’t know what HE said. I pray to God that HE will give me discernment in all things and that I will see HIS TRUTH!
My suggestions for a Holy BIble are the Tony Evans Study Bible, the MacArther Study Bible, a Complete Jewish BIble, a King James Bible, and a Wycliffe Bible. Study them! Arm up!
I buy Bibles from Christian Book Distributors. I have had the privilege of buying several this year…for newly baptized believers. The angels of Heaven rejoice! Please use the link below to access the website. Yes, this is an affiliate link.
