from the Brisbane Revival Fellowship

Hello once again...


Only 175 days to the year 2027

Scripture Of The Day

The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of knowledge: [but] fools despise wisdom and instruction. Proverbs 1:7.

Read The Bible In a Year

Job 41-42; Acts 16:22-40.

Thoughts For The Day

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

Even though I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

Your road to success should always be under construction.


Motivation For The Day

Get excited and enthusiastic about you own dream. This excitement is like a forest fire - you can smell it, taste it, and see it from a mile away.

Personal Story Of The Day

Good Job

We all love to have someone tell us, "Hey, great job. I appreciate you." And if several people tell us we are doing something right, that's even better. God loves the praise of His people too, but he loves it for another reason. He has no ego but he does have a great love for us. 

Our praises indicate that we are on the right path and making life saving choices... thus our recognition of this brings joy to the Lord. 
Our most important work on earth is to exalt Him to others (Psalm 96:9), "that in all things God may be glorified" (1 Peter 4:11). It's our responsibility and privilege to worship, love, exalt, promote and serve the Lord. 

Revelation 5:9-13 tells of a future day on earth when believers from "every tribe and tongue and people and nation" who have been redeemed by Jesus' blood will surround His throne with praises. All of those individuals, add up to a very large congregation of God-praising people. 

God's greatness is so overwhelming, so unfathomable, and so indescribable that millions and millions of people... all praising Him and bowing before Him in worship...will give Him the glory He deserves. Even now, each of us can participate in celebrating God's majesty by promoting Him with the way we live our lives. And one day we will join with people from every nation in that massive heavenly celebration. 

Jokes Of The Day

The doctor had just been buried. The last words of the service over, his friends and family started toward their cars. However, they stopped because a strange, eerie sound suddenly was heard from the grave. As the guests looked around, a colleague of the deceased said, "It's nothing... just his beeper."

************************************

Rick, fresh out of accounting school, went to a interview for a good paying job. The company boss asked various questions about him and his education, but then asked him, "What is three times seven?"

"22," Rick replied. After he left, he double-checked it on his calculator (he *knew* he should have taken it to the interview!) and realized he wouldn't get the job.

About two weeks later, he got a letter that said he was hired for the job! He was not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, but was still very curious. The next day, he went in and asked why he got the job, even though he got such a simple question wrong. The boss shrugged and said, "Well, you were the closest."

Riddle Of The Day

A mansion I am For many, many things. I can live for a very long time. As I grow, I wear more jewelry;
However, my jewelry is hidden. Only when I die
Do others find How old I've grown And just where my jewelry lies.

Answer to Yesterdays Riddle
Discovered in Africa, I spread like a tide To become a hot staple known the world wide. A necessity to some, a treasure to many, I'm best enjoyed among pleasant company. Some like me hot and some like me cold.Some prefer mild, others only bold.Some take me straight, while some like to savour My essence to which has been added a flavour. So put down your cares and sit awhile with me; I'll send you back refreshed and full of energy.
Coffee. It was first discovered in the area of Africa now called Ethiopia. Legend has it that a goat herder observed his goats acting unusually frisky after eating berries from a bush. When he tried them himself, his energy was renewed. And the rest is history.

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day


God Continues His Salvation Plan.

When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life. Acts 11:18. References from Acts 10:1-11:18. 

The lengths to which the Lord goes to reach people staggers our limited imagination, but it's a reminder of how much He loves people. One such individual was a Roman centurion named Cornelius. Although Cornelius believed and respected God and tried to do the right thing, he didn't know about the good news of Jesus Christ and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

Knowing the desire of Cornelius's heart, however, the Lord supernaturally spoke to him in a dream, directing him to find Peter. Peter, however, needed a vision from the Lord himself. Despite all that Peter had witnessed, the natural prejudice of Jews against Gentiles was still very strong in their minds. The Lord had to break through this before Peter could minister to Cornelius. So the Lord used an unusual dream to correct Peter's understanding of what was unclean (in this case, the Gentiles). 

Equipped with God's perspective, Peter was then ready to go to Cornelius. Notice that Cornelius had assembled his entire family and close friends to hear about the gospel! Both Peter and Cornelius were able to see that the good news of salvation in Jesus Christ was for all people... even to the ends of the earth!


I have Rights

And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren. Is not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left. Genesis 13:8-9.

Everyone seems concerned about their rights. Whatever the issue, someone is sure to claim that he or she has the right to engage in it. Someone else will maintain that if this person asserts his rights, it will violate their rights. It’s no wonder that one social commentator observed, "The search for the good has yielded to the search for rights."

When it came time to separate from his nephew, Abraham certainly could have demanded his rights. As the patriarch in the family, Abraham had the right of first choice about where he wanted to go, but he graciously allowed his younger relative to choose instead. When Lot selfishly chose the lush, fertile valleys, Abraham could have legitimately protested that this flagrant unfairness was a violation of his rights. 

Instead, he simply packed up his belongings and moved to the more barren hill country. Obviously, Abraham was more interested in preserving his relationship with Lot than he was in exercising his rights.

God does not assure His children that we will always have our rights recognized. The apostle Paul urges us, "Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. " (Phil 2:3). In other words, let the rights of others be first in your mind, and God will take care of the rest. If your "rights" have been trampled upon, turn them over to the Lord. 

A loving relationship with the important people in your life will ultimately be more satisfying than protecting your rights. Be more concerned about doing right than having rights.
