Scripture Of The Day
[Oh] how great [is] thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; [which] thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! Psalms 31:19.Read The Bible In a Year
Isaiah 1-2; Galatians 5.Thoughts For The Day
A wise man will make haste to forgive, because he knows the true value of time.No matter what God gives you to do today, remember, He's preparing you for tomorrow. No matter how tough this day is for you to deal with, it's a part of God's training plan. It carries within it a precious lesson He wants you to learn about Him, about His power, about His love for you, about His gentle, yet powerful, hand on your life. Even in the worst of circumstances, savor them. Seek God's hand in them. Look at what He's doing with you and for you today. And know that He is preparing you to serve Him better tomorrow.
Honesty isn't a policy at all; it's a state of mind.
Motivation For The Day
If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man can have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability to work with God.On This Day
1580 - Drake circumnavigates the globe-English seaman Francis Drake returns to Plymouth in the Golden Hind, becoming the first British navigator to sail the earth. In 1577, Drake set off from England on a mission to raid Spanish holdings on the Pacific coast of the New World. Of five ships, only the Golden Hind reached the Pacific, but Drake continued unperturbed, seizing Spanish treasure and searching in vain for a northeast passage back to the Atlantic. In 1579, he set off across the Pacific. After sailing the Indian Ocean, he rounded Africa's Cape of Good Hope, returning to the Atlantic and then England. In 1581, Queen Elizabeth I visited his ship and knighted Drake. The most renowned of the Elizabethan seamen, he later played a crucial role in the defeat of the Spanish Armada.1665 - Height of the Great Plague of London as 7,165 people die throughout the previous week.

Personal Story Of The Day
When I was first told too true bible salvation, I had never heard the simple yet powerful message I was being told. It takes time to register, and many aspects need to be considered because of other implications. The biggest stumbling block I had was the realisation that my grandfather (a minister of religion), was on the wrong side of the gospel. My internal conflict reasoned that a loving and helpful person had to be acceptable in God's eyes.
Thus, if my grandfather was rejected by God, what hope did I have and how could he not know the true gospel if such a gospel was true? How could my father and mother not know? They raised me, loved me, cared for me and showed me every value I had in life. How could they not know?
There were many other conflicts at work as well. I was a smoker and giving up was not going to be easy. I was a social drinker and giving up would cut my ties with the newly formed adult bonds that I was enjoying (It was the first year I was legally allowed to drink). I feared being mocked by family and the few true friends that I had. I felt weak and powerless to make such decisions and yet they demanded to be made.
I knew the gospel of salvation would create so many conflicts that it would be almost impossible for me to follow. I was shy, timid and afraid to go against the grain of popular opinion, feeling ill equipped to do so. In hindsight, I now realise that everyone who comes to the Lord has to face similar problems... there are no natural Christians. The battle was actually won, not by what I did or changed.
The battle was actually won when I decided to put fellowship first and place myself where these wonderful words and powerful observations were being presented... amongst the people of God.
I also now realise that God did the fighting and not me. He was the one making the changes in me. He was the one that made it possible for me to be where I am now. Funny enough... the internal conflicts never leave. The more you learn, the more failings and faults you discover in yourself. My victory was learning that God was managing them all along. I learned to love and enjoy the powers and miracles the spirit gives me... they are the keys to my service and faith in God.
Now I can truly comprehend this wonderful promise... John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Jokes Of The Day
Q: Why did the priest giggle?A: Mass hysteria
************************************
A little boy opened the big and old family Bible with fascination, and looked at the old pages as he turned them. Suddenly, something fell out of the Bible, and he picked it up and looked at it closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that had been pressed between the pages. 'Momma, look what I found,' the boy called out. 'What have you got there, dear?' his mother asked. With astonishment in the young boy's voice, he answered: 'I think it's Adam's suit!'
************************************
A Sunday school teacher asked the children just before she dismissed them to go to church, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?" Annie replied, "Because people are sleeping."

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves. 1The 5:12-13.
Although most people seem to give the pastor their attention, many have their minds elsewhere. It would be fascinating at the end of a meeting to know where everybody had been in their mind. To receive the greatest benefit from our meetings, we must prepare our hearts and become active participants.
We must become wholeheartedly involved in singing the choruses, silently praying as the pastor leads the congregation in prayer, and rejoicing from the heart as people offer their testimonies. Finally, we need to discipline ourselves to listen intently with a receptive heart to the teaching of God's Word.
We need to develop a hunger for truth that calms our spirits, inspires worship, evokes praise to God, and moves us to serve the church (God's people). It's easy to blame the pastor if we leave the meeting feeling empty and discouraged. But he's just one participant; we must do our part. Those who get the most out of worship are those who put the most into it.
Nothing Is Too Hard
Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for me? Jeremiah 32:27.
Times were tough for Jerusalem. The Chaldeans had raised siege mounds around the city. Famine and sickness affected all the streets. Jeremiah was on the verge of losing all hope for survival. His whole life seemed like a garbage heap... and each day only added a little more to the pile. But in the midst of this doom and gloom, God said to him, Is there anything too hard for Me?
Even preserving the prophet's life in the midst of disaster was not an impossible task for God. Life gets rough sometimes. Illness strikes, financial troubles threaten us, family problems cloud our steps. At best, most people just hope they can scramble to the top as each new load of garbage gets dumped on them. But you don't have to live like that.
God says, Things can be better for you because I am with you... and nothing is too difficult for Me. Even your most troublesome circumstances simply become a stage on which God demonstrates that nothing is hopeless with Him.
If your situation is causing you to despair, listen to what the Lord has to say to you: Is anything too hard for Me? Take confidence in thef act that the omnipotent God is on your side. When God says "nothing is too hard," He means "nothing"!
