Personal Story Of The Day
The Power Of The Power In Us"Why don't the stars fall down?" A child may ask that question, but so does an astronomer. And they both get essentially the same answer: A mysterious power or energy upholds everything and prevents our cosmos from collapsing into chaos. Hebrews 1:3 tells us that it is Jesus is the 'image of God's person' who upholds all things by the word of His power.
He is the originating source of all the energy there is, whether the explosive potential packed inside an atom or the steaming kettle on the kitchen stove. That energy is not simply a mindless force.
The Lord God is the personal power who created everything out of nothing, including the stars (Genesis 1; Isaiah 40:26); who divided the Red Sea and delivered the Israelites from Egyptian bondage (Exodus 14:21-22); who brought to pass the virgin birth of Jesus (Luke 1:34-35); and who raised Him from the dead and conquered death (2 Timothy 1:10). Our God, the one and only true God, has the power to answer prayer, meet our needs, and change our lives.
So, when life's problems are baffling, when you face some Red Sea impossibility, call upon the wonder-working God who upholds all things. And remember that with our God, nothing is impossible, which leads us to our great commission... "Go ye into the whole world and preach the gospel to every creature."
Jokes Of The Day
A timid little man ventured into a biker bar in the Bronx and, clearing his throat, asked, "Um, err, which of you gentlemen owns the Doberman tied outside to the parking meter?"A giant of a man wearing biker leathers with his body hair growing out of the seams turned slowly on his stool. He looked down at the quivering little man and said, "It's my dog. Why?"
"Well," squeaked the little man, very nervous, "I believe my dog just killed it, sir."
"What?" roared the big man in disbelief. "What in the world kind of dog do you have?"
"Sir," answered the little man, "It's a four-week-old puppy."
"Bull!" roared the biker, "How could your puppy kill my Doberman?"
"It appears that he choked on it, sir."

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
Unhelpful Friendship.
To him that is afflicted pity should be shewed from his friend; Job 6:14. Read: Job 22:1-30.
Supportive Friendship is what Job wanted from his three friends. Instead, in this final round of speeches, we find that Job's friends leave much to be desired.
Eliphaz's final speech is especially sad. It's clear that he really cares about Job. While he has misdiagnosed the problem, he's concerned for the patient. But he is frustrated. Consequently, he becomes harsh, even cruel.
He begins by refuting Job’s idea that God is indifferent to the ways of the wicked. He claims that God doesn't determine if a person is good or bad... he gains no benefit from the affairs of humans because He is the Almighty (v24). Instead, success or failure lies within individuals. Therefore, Job’s claim that he suffers innocently is unthinkable.
Because Eliphaz hasn't found real examples of sin in Jobs life, he invents some. He accuses Job of being wicked (v5), unjust to family members (v6), and uncaring to the poor and oppressed (v79). With his tidy list, Eliphaz confidently asserts that Job is now getting what he deserves (v10-11). But if Job had done such cruelties, everyone would have seen it.
Eliphaz accuses Job of concealing his sin from both God and his friends. He seems to respond to Job's claim that the wicked go unpunished in this life (see yesterday’s study) by suggesting that Job is like that godless person. Even more cruelly, Eliphaz implies that he rejoices in the ruin that Job apparently deserves (v19). Eliphaz concludes his speech with his familiar appeal to repent.
As we read carefully through this final section (v22-30), we find more than one suggestion of a 'salvation by works' mentality.
Very Important Choices
And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me. Ruth 1:16-17.
A sign on the door of a classroom declares, "We are not born losers, we are born choosers." How very true. Each day we are faced with choices, some of which have the potential of changing our lives forever. Ruth faced such choices. She had to choose whether to return to her people with her sister-in-law, Orpha, or to follow Naomi, her mother-in-law. She chose her mother-in-law.
She had to choose whether to identify herself as a pagan Moabite or throw her lot in with the people of Israel. She chose the people of Israel. She had to choose to worship the idol Chemosh, which involved the sacrifice of children, or to put her trust in the living God, who gives life instead of taking it. She chose Jehovah.
These were important choices, and she made them with a determination that changed her life. Like Ruth, we are all born outside of God's family. But God graciously gives us the opportunity to make choices that can give us eternal life. Instead of continuing in Satan's kingdom of darkness, you can choose to change your allegiance to the kingdom of God’s beloved Son (Col 1:13).
You can choose to continue in the deeds of darkness or walk in the light (Eph 5:7-10). You can choose to search for fulfilment in the world or place your trust in Jesus, who has promised to meet your every need (Phil. 4:19). Like Ruth's, these are crucial decisions and, when made with determination, can change your life.
What decisions have you made? Choose rightly. Repent, be baptised and receive the Holy Spirit... God will empower you to speak in tongues. You start a new life in a new country... the kingdom of God.
