Personal Story Of The Day
A Little Bit Of WisdomChildren seem to be more comfortable using computers than their parents are. Because of this, a manufacturer trying to increase sales to adults advertised a certain computer with the slogan: "So easy, even an adult can operate it!" (And if they still have problems, they can ask their children.) This isn't the first time adults have had something to learn from children.
When Jesus came to Jerusalem and performed healings in the temple, it was the children who were quick to recognize who He was and to shout, "Hosanna to the Son of David!" (Matthew 21:15). The chief priests and scribes, though, weren't willing to listen and learn from the children. They refused to take Jesus seriously. Instead, they took Him to task by asking, "And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say?" "Yes!" Jesus replied. Then, quoting from Psalm 8:2 He said, "Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?" (Matthew 21:16).
We need to remind ourselves that adults don't know it all. Let's be humble enough to listen and learn something God wants to teach us through the faith of a child. It is obvious that children lack knowledge and life skills, but God selects their unbiased ability to recognise reality and their ability to forgive and forget.

It is obvious that children lack knowledge and life skills, but God selects their unbiased ability to recognise reality and their ability to forgive and forget.
Thus, one of the greatest bible prophecies is realised.... 1Corinthians 14:20-21 'Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice (ill will) be ye children, but in understanding be men. In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.'
These verses identify speaking in tongues as God's chosen sign to identify those filled with the holy spirit and to set his evidence in our life. He makes it clear that most adults won't recognise this truth, even though the evidence is clear and present.
Just like the children who identified Jesus as the son of David from the miracles they saw... let us also identify and promote the salvation power of God from the miracles we see.
Jokes Of The Day
A woman named Shirley was from Beverly Hills. One day, she had a heart attack and was taken to Cedars Sinai hospital. While on the operating table, she had a near-death experience. She saw God and asked, "Is this it?" God said, "No, you have another 30 to 40 years to live." Upon her recovery, she decided to stay in the hospital and have collagen shots, cheek implants, a face lift, liposuction and breast augmentation. She even had someone dye her hair. She figured since she had another 30 to 40 years, she might as well make the most of it. She walked out of Cedars Sinai lobby after the last operation and was killed by an ambulance speeding up to the hospital. She arrived in front of God and said, "I thought you said I had another 30 to 40 years?" God replied, "Shirley! I didn't recognize you!"************************************
The boy listened closely as the rabbi read the Bible. 'May I ask a question?' he asked. 'Sure. Go ahead. Ask your question,' replied the rabbi. 'Well, the Bible says that the children of Israel crossed the Red Sea-the children of Israel built the temple-the children of Israel did this and the children of Israel did that. Didn't the grown-ups ever do anything?'
************************************
Frustrated at always being corrected by her husband, my aunt decided the next time it happened, she would have a comeback.
That moment finally arrived, and she was ready. "You know," she challenged, "even a broken clock is right once a day!"
My uncle looked at her and replied, "Twice."

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. Isaiah 59:15.
At peace for the first time in many years, Israel was now committed to indulgences and luxury, a simple farmer from the southern nation of Judah confronted them in the name of God. Israel and Judah split about 170 years before, and Like Isaiah, Amos was appalled at the pagan practices of the northern nation. People eagerly pursued material possessions, built shrines, and worshiped idols.

Israel and Judah split about 170 years before, and Like Isaiah, Amos was appalled at the pagan practices of the northern nation. People eagerly pursued material possessions, built shrines, and worshiped idols.
Yet, Hypocritically, they still they looked forward to the day of the Lord, when God would bestow further blessing and power on their country (Amos 5:18). Instead, God sent Amos to reject the natural and spiritual injustice in their nation.
Amos mourned because the Lord's chosen nation had turned from its faith and embraced idolatry and selfishness. But Amos spends little time condemning the nation for their idol worship, other than to promote God's disregard for their sacrifices (Amos 5:18-22). Instead, he focuses on what he sees and hears in every marketplace: dishonest business practices and oppression of the poor (v.11), privilege bought with money and bribery in the courts (v.12).
Corruption had become so widespread that the realistic Israelite knew to keep his mouth shut in any legal dispute, for he would find no justice even in the courts (v.13). This is now happening bit by bit in the western world.
The book of Amos talks about injustice more than any other book of the Bible. The Israelites had congratulated themselves on making God fit into their lives. But in fact, God did not fit. And through Amos, He proclaimed the truth that being in right relationship with God results in justice for all.
Strong in the Power of the Lord's Might
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Ephesians 6:10.
When Paul speaks about being strong, he is not referring to human strength. God knows that we are weak in ourselves. Jesus said, 'Without me you can do nothing' (John 15:5). God does not despise our weakness. He loves us, but He also wants us to grow in the power using His strength instead of our own.

God does not despise our weakness. He loves us, but He also wants us to grow in the power using His strength instead of our own.
In Jesus Christ we have life; in Him we have wisdom; He is our strength. We need strength and power to do the things the Lord desires of us and to resist all that tries to hinder us. This is why we have been filled with spiritual power. It pleases God to allow His power to be revealed in human weakness. Then He receives the glory.
He does not receive glory because we are weak; He receives glory because we, in our weakness, are open to His power. In 2Corinthians 4:7 Paul says, 'But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.'
Too often we focus on the weak and lamentable earthen vessel, but God focuses on the treasure within. That treasure is Jesus, his word, the power of the Spirit and the abundance of eternal life. The fact that the vessel is weak merely confirms that it is God who has placed His treasure in it. Thus, it is the treasure within that we are to make use of.

We must not resist the Spirit's command to grow stronger in the Lord. We need to ask the Lord to rid us of any fear and remove any self-pity or unwillingness in our lives. In order to obey God, we need to become even stronger in the Lord. It is so wonderful that this power is available to us and is found in us. The next move is yours.
Facts Of The Day
Conveyor printing press is used to print the tiny white M's on each M&M candy. Because the peanut sizes vary, the press must be always adjusted to prevent smashing the peanuts in peanut M&Ms. Regular M&Ms, all the same size, are much easier to send through the printer.
