GOD IS LOVE
Scripture: I John 4:16 "God is love, and those who abide in love abide
in God, and God abides in them."
Love originates with God. God is love therefore love is God. You can't
separate the two nor have one without the other. We are not talking about a
sensual kind of love, but that supreme quality that is manifested by giving
one's life for another. Words of love are easy to say and cards expressing love
are inexpensive to purchase. God could have just spoken words of love to us
through the scriptures, but He didn't. He chose to go much further than that. He
manifested His love in action. God loved the world so much that He gave His only
begotten Son to die for us so that He could set us free from sin's snare and
give us eternal life (John 3:16). This is the love of God. It is rich and it is
pure, for while we were sinners, Christ died for us. His love can not be earned
or bought and is not based on our performance, but comes to us as a free gift
and is eternal.
I John 4:19 says, "We love God because He first loved us." The next
verses tell us that we can't say that we love God when we hate our brother, for
love and hate cannot be mingled in the same vessel. If mingled, they will
neutralize one another. God has given us a commandment that if we are going to
love Him, we must also love our brothers and sisters. Every act that we do and
every word that we speak should be preceded by love. The Apostle Paul said that
if love is not working in our life, we are like noisy gongs or clanging cymbals,
making a lot of empty noise. Real love has substance and makes sacrifices. The
price of God's love was that He allowed His Son to hang on a cruel cross. When
love is in our hearts there is also a price that we must pay. Paul lists the
demands and sacrifices that love makes in our lives in I Corinthians 13:4-8.
(Amplified Bible)
1) Love endures long and is patient.
2) Love is kind.
3) Love is never envious or boils over with jealousy.
4) Love is not boastful or vainglorious.
5) Love does not display itself haughtily.
6) Love is not conceited - arrogant and inflated with pride.
7) Love is not rude and does not act unbecomingly.
8) Love does not insist on its own rights or its own way.
9) Love is not self-seeking.
10) Love is not touchy, fretful, or resentful.
11) Love takes no account to the evil done unto it,and pays no attention to suffered wrong.
12) Love does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness.
13) Love rejoices when right and truth prevails.
14) Love bears up under anything and everything that comes.
15) Love is ever ready to believe the best of every person.
16) Love's hopes are fadeless under all circumstances and endures everything (without weakening).
17) Love never fails - never fades out
or becomes obsolete or comes to an end. +++

PURE FOUNTAINS
Scripture: James 3:11 "Does a fountain send forth at the same time sweet
water and bitter?"
James was drawing a parallel between a literal fountain of water and the
living water that flows from the soul and spirit of man, for Jesus said that
out of your belly would flow rivers of living water. James made it clear
that just as a fountain of water cannot be sweet and bitter at the same
time, neither can the spirit of man be pure when contaminated with the
things of the world. Whatever we put into our spirits is going to flow out
of the fountains of our life. If you have ever been to the beach and got a
little salt water mixed in with your fresh drinking water, you can
understand and appreciate this analogy very well. For you know that just a
little salt water ruins the taste and effects of the fresh water and makes
it unfit to drink.
Did you know that you can add poison to water and it will not be visible?
Yet when consumed, it becomes a deadly drink. It only takes just a little
poison to have a negative effect. None of us would intentionally poison
those about us, yet many times we disburse water from our souls that is not
pure and it becomes like poison to those that receive it. James said that
blessing and cursing cannot proceed from the same mouth. You cannot bless
and praise God and then curse those about you, for they were made in the
image of God and God loves them. You can't lie to one and then tell the
truth to another without being a liar. Neither can your heart be in peace
and in strife at the same time. You can't be a fig tree and produce berries
or be a vine and produce figs. It doesn't work that way in nature and it
won't work that way in the spirit either, for just the slightest amount of
bitterness within your soul is going to ruin the sweetness of your witness.
We are who we are within. Proverbs 4: 23 says, "Keep your heart with all
diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." Whatever is inside of our
hearts is going to flow out, so we must live in God's grace and minister His
grace to those that we come in contact with. We must guard our hearts like
we would a precious fountain of water in a dry and barren desert, for it is
all that we have to sustain ourselves and is the source of our ministry to
others. We must not allow anything from within or from without to
contaminate our spirits so that we can insure the sweetness of our
fountain. If we want to have a pure fountain, we must be filled with God's
Spirit and His sweetness so there will be no room for bitterness. +++

FAITH AND PATIENCE
Scripture: Hebrews 6:12 "Be not slothful, but followers of them who
through faith and patience inherit the promises."
God's work at Calvary is complete, unmovable, and eternal. Our Christian
life is based upon our acceptance of this finished work and our own personal
faith in the promises of God. God's promises are sure, for He is not a man
that lies with His lips or repents and changes the decisions of His heart.
God's words are facts that have been established from the foundations of
time. They stand steadfast and remain true in all circumstances and at all
times. Whatever God says will come to pass, for His words never return to
Him void but accomplish what they were sent forth to do.
The only variable in the situation is our faith and our patience towards
what God has spoken, for it takes both faith and patience to receive His
promises. We have heard of the patience of Job, but we must remember that
Job also had great faith. He had enough faith to place his life in God's
hands and declare, "Though He slay me, I will still trust Him" (Job 13:15).
That is unconditional faith that is not based on God's performance. Faith
doesn't say, "Give me the answer, then I will believe." Faith says, "I
believe and trust God regardless of what happens." Job had enough patience
to make it through the trial that he was selected to endure, for God Himself
spoke to Satan and said, "Have you considered my servant Job?" He brought
Job to Satan's attention and then allowed Satan to take Job through an
enormous test. Passing this test was not easy for Job, yet Job's faith and
patience survived and he received more at the end of his ordeal than he had
at the beginning.
When difficult pressures come our way, we may wonder about the status of
God's promises and our own personal faith may tend to waver. It may seem
that life itself is just one painful problem after another. Like the
account with Job, the current trial that we are in may not end before
another one begins. And if we experience disappointments and failures in
the midst of these challenges, we may even want to give up, as our faith may
not have enough patience to endure the process. Yet, it is only as we
follow the example of Job and the other mighty saints of the scriptures that
we will inherit the promises that God has left to us. We must not be
slothful but exhibit the same kind of faith and patience they had. God
has faith in us and we can be confident that He will not allow anything to
come against us that is greater than we can bear. Faith and patience is our
banner of victory and as we stand steadfast, we will inherit His promises.

ENDURING THE PRESSURE
II Corinthians 1:8 & 9 " ... pressed out of measure, above strength ...
that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God."
The Apostle Paul identified his own sufferings with those that Christ
suffered and declared that his suffering had a purpose. He believed
that the hardships that had come to him because he preached the gospel
of the Lord Jesus Christ were not in vain but were meant to encourage
other believers. Even though he had been pressed out of measure
and pushed beyond his strength until he despaired even of life itself,
he was confident that God would deliver him in all situations. Instead
of trusting in himself, Paul put his trust in God and believed that the
things he was experiencing would be a testimony of God's grace, mercy,
and comfort.
We love to hear music played on a piano but did you know that it takes
eleven tons of pressure on the strings of a piano to keep it in tune?
Each of the eighty-eight keys must be dealt with separately and each
string must be stretched to its limit until the right tone is sounded.
It takes an expert to accomplish this feat. In the end, no string can
be loose, for just one key that is out of tune can disrupt the melody of
the whole song. If the piano were a living being, it would probably
shout out a protest against this painful process, saying that it was too
much to endure and that the results really weren't worth it. Yet, when
the piano is perfectly tuned, it makes beautiful music. I have a piano
that has several keys that are out of tune, and when played, the most
noticeable notes are those that need to be corrected. Anyone, even
those who do not know music, can determine that the keys are out of tune
Our lives are similar. God works with us very patiently in an effort to
tune our lives so that we are able to make the right sounds in His
kingdom. It takes much faith to submit to God's tuning process, for
many times it is an unpleasant ordeal as He takes us through things that
are quite painful. He allows pressures that we don't understand and
that we think are unbearable, and just like the piano tuner, He works on
us one string at a time. He tightens our situations, stretches us to
our very limits, and then listens carefully to the tones that are coming
forth from our lives. He doesn't want anything to be out of tune. When
He strikes a key, He wants us to be in harmony with His will and His
purposes. He has designed us to be an instrument of excellence in His
kingdom. There are others about us who are also listening and taking
notice of the melodies of our lives. They can discern when our lives
are out of tune and they respond to the harsh notes they hear.
They also rejoice with the beautiful notes that come forth when our
lives are submitted to God. If we want to be an instrument that sounds
forth Heaven's melodies, we cannot trust in ourselves but must trust in
God. We must submit ourselves to Him and allow Him to finely tune us
and remember that the things in our lives that bring pressure in the
natural will be the same things that will shape our lives and
give beauty in the spiritual. +++

DIVINE SEASONS
SCRIPTURE: Ecclesiastes 3:1 "To everything there is a season, and a
time to every purpose under the heaven."
All of the seasons in nature are planned and set in motion by God.
There is no way for man to shorten the winter because of its cold or
stop the summer because of its heat. The beautiful spring with its mild
weather and gentle rains cannot be prolonged and the crisp clear
pleasant days of the fall cannot be lengthened. The seasons remain in
the hands of almighty God. Likewise, the seasons in your personal life
are divinely designed by God and cannot be altered. Jeremiah 29:11 says
that God knows the thoughts and plans that He has for you and it
includes a future with hope and a destiny of fruitfulness. Even in your
senior years God has a plan for you. Psalms 92:14 says, "They shall
still bring forth fruit in old age." All you must do is to flow in and
out of the seasons and remain faithful.
There will be seasons like the fall when everything seems to be very
clear and crisp in your spirit. You seem to have exact direction and
perfect vision and hope fills your heart as you anticipate the future.
Then, just when things are falling into place, coldness and the clouds
of darkness begin to cover your seeds of hope. For some length of time,
your dreams remain dormant with seemingly no hope of life or
fulfillment. Then, just as suddenly as this disappointing and
unproductive season came, it too passes and the singing of the birds
come. God begins to resurrect all that surrounds you and He restores
your hopes and dreams. He overwhelms you by giving life to the dormant
seeds that you have harbored in your heart. His Spirit refreshes your
faith like the spring rain that falls upon the earth and He once again
begins to accomplish His purposes in your life. Eventually, the summer
appears and there is an abundance of fruit that God is able to produce
in your life because of your faithfulness to remain steady.
God never leaves you or forsakes you in these various seasons of your
life. Notice the trees that look so hopeless during the dormant
season. Their bark turns an ashen gray and their leaves, which were
lush and green, change colors and fall. The tree is left totally
exposed with seemingly no life, no beauty, no purpose, and no hope. It
has no energy as its sap is drained, but the tree never waves its barren
limbs at God and questions Him about its current and bleak situation,
for it has experienced this place many times. So, it takes the
nourishment through its roots and patiently waits again for God's
appointed season. God never fails, and as the barren tree waits, its
strength is renewed and a new season of growth comes. It finds
itself again flourishing. Just like the tree, you must always remember
that God has designs for your life. The season you are in has been
divinely ordained and appointed by Him. Never be discouraged, but
embrace it and patiently wait, for its purpose will be revealed. +++

4th Week of February 2005

SUPPORT THOSE WHO ARE WEARY
Scripture: Exodus 17:12 "Moses hands were weary ... and Aaron and Hur held
up his hands."
While Joshua and the army of Israel fought against the armies of Amalek,
Moses stood at the top of the hill with the rod of God in His hand. Aaron
and Hur stood by his side and as the battle raged, Moses lifted the rod that
was in his hands. When he lifted the rod up, the armies of Israel prevailed
in battle, but when he lowered his hands, the Amalekites prevailed. After a
length of time, Moses finally became weary and could no longer hold the rod
up. Israel was destined for defeat, but Aaron and Hur got a stone for Moses
to sit upon and they stood on each side of him and held his hands up.
Because of their effort and support, Joshua defeated Amalek and his army.
God calls each of us to act in the same way towards our brothers and sisters
in Christ. When we see that they are in a battle with the enemy, we need to
stand by their side and support them. We don't have to engage ourselves in
their actual battle but we can intercede in prayer, give encouraging words,
send a card of comfort, cook a meal, or do something to let them know that
we care. It may also be that we need to restore them in love if they have
been overcome in sin. In Galatians 6:2, Paul tells us to bear or carry one
another's burdens. It's in sharing each other's troubles and problems that
we fulfill the command of the Lord.
There are all kinds of battles that rage against believers and there are
needs that surround us every day. All that we have to do is open our eyes
and see them or allow our ears to be attentive to their cries. Yet, we
often walk in denial and try to ignore the obvious, because acknowledgement
requires some sort of personal response and self-sacrifice. Yet, meeting
another person's need could be the one thing that brings victory in our own
lives. Job's captivity turned when he prayed for his friends who had judged
him harshly. And Isaiah 58:7-9 says that when we take care of the needs of
others, our own light will break forth and health will come to our own
bodies. It's as we sow blessings that we reap and as we give that we
receive. Luke 6:38 says that whatever we share, it will be given back to us
in a good measure, pressed down, and shaken together. So when you discern
that your brother or sister is weary in their battle, be the one to hold
them up. Your one soft word or your one kind deed may be the very thing
that gives them the strength and help that they need to overcome and defeat
their enemy. +++

LEARN TO DO RIGHT
Scripture: Isaiah 1:16-17 "Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean; put
away the evil of your doing from before My eyes; cease to do evil ... learn
to do right."
We come into this world with a sin nature that we have inherited from Adam
and Eve. We don't have to be taught how to do wrong and neither do we have
to put a lot of effort into becoming selfish and demanding. It's also in
our nature to be controlled by doubt and fear. Just look at a newborn baby
or the actions of an undisciplined child. Their main interest lies in their
own needs and desires. They don't hesitate to impose upon others. Their
patience is limited and they demand immediate action regardless of how it
may affect others. Fear also looms in their hearts until trust is
developed. It's all too evident that a carnal nature rules in their
spirits.
The prophet Isaiah said, "Learn to do right." Just like the small child who
must be taught to do right, we must learn at every level to do that which is
right. Learning comes by acquiring knowledge through study, experience, or
consequence. It is a gradual and continual process of making the
appropriate adjustments in our own lives and attitudes. Isaiah said, "Wash
yourselves and make yourselves clean." It is our responsibility to
recognize the improprieties in our lives and put away the darkness and evil
that lurks in our soul.
Below are some profound words from Helen Keller, a woman who was without
sight or hearing. Because of her physical impairments, she could have let
bitterness rule her heart and chosen to live a life of confusion. But she
learned to do what was right. She determined to live in peace, to
demonstrate love, to keep her motives right, and to trust God with all of
her heart. In your effort to learn about life and do what is right, think
on the wisdom of her words, allow them to penetrate your heart, and make
them a daily goal for your life.
"I have four things to learn in life;
To think clearly, without hurry or confusion;
To love everybody sincerely;
To act in everything with the highest of motives;
To trust in God unhesitatingly."
... Helen Keller

TRUST GOD'S LIGHT
Scripture: Psalms 119:105 "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my
path."
Life is a wonderful journey with God as our guide. He covers the earth with His
presence and each step that we take, He goes before us. He makes the crooked
ways straight and gives light to our path. He never sleeps, slumbers, or takes
vacations. He is with us and will always be with us until the end of the world.
His hand is not shortened so that He cannot touch us, His ears are not deaf to
our voices, and His eyes are not dim to see the things that surround us. He
knows everything about the road that we are taking and He also knows what lies
ahead.
We want to know what the future holds and desire that our way be flooded with
light. Yet, even though God may give us a glimpse into the future, He most often
gives us a lamp that only sheds light to our feet and to the next few steps that
we are to take. He speaks into our lives and illuminates our spirits through His
word. He leads us down the pathway one step at a time, gently taking us through
valleys and strengthening us as we push our way up the mountains. He is there
speaking to us when we must cross the rivers or the dry barren deserts. He is in
our midst when things are calm and also when the storms of life are raging about
us. He has a word for every season of our lives. He carries our burdens, shares
our sorrows, and His love and compassions never end. He laughs with us and cries
with us. He also celebrates when we celebrate and hurts when we hurt. He meets
us at our present moment and gives us encouragement and hope in our journey.
A few years ago, I had to make a crucial decision that would affect the rest of
my life. It was the hardest decision that I ever faced and it took months for me
to come to a final conclusion. I sought the Lord, I followed His Spirit of
peace, and I walked in all the light that I had at the time. God's light seemed
to be a small circle around me and I could see nothing outside of the
circumference of that circle because of the darkness that surrounded me. I had
God's answer, but I could not see the end results. It was a very sad time as I
did not know what the future held or if I would ever find joy again. After the
decision was final and my commitment was made, the enemy began to sow doubt in
my mind. He tormented me with thoughts in an effort to draw me back to his plan.
Yet, God is always faithful and gives light within our being. As I sought the
Lord, He reminded me of the light that He had shown within my heart when I was
making my decision. His light had guided me through the darkest hours of my life
and His word had been my lamp. He had spoken to me through His word and the
devil was simply trying to put that light out with doubt and confusion. When I
realized what was happening, faith arose within my heart and the peace of God
assured me that I was going in the right direction. The circumstances had not
changed so I disallowed the breath of Satan to blow out the light. I continued
to walk in the light that I had experienced when I sought for God's answer. I
set my heart to believe God and trust His word and promises although I could not
see their fulfillment at the time. Years later, I know that I made the right
decision and I wonder now how it could have been so hard at the time. Yet, I
come to realize that there are dark shadows in every valley of decision. The
harder the decision, the darker the shadows. Out of my experience, I want to
encourage you to lean upon God on your journey through life. There will be many
decisions and to make the best choices, you must allow God and His word to be a
lamp to your feet and then trust in His light. +++

SUBMISSION TO GOD
Scripture: James 4:6-7 "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the
humble. Submit yourselves therefore to God."
We know God's character and are confident that He wants the best for us, but
many times it is hard to let go and totally submit our lives to Him because
of our pride. It is in our nature to assert our privileges, claim our
rights, and be in control. Yet, when we do these things outside of God's
bidding, we dishonor His sovereignty and leave ourselves vulnerable and
unprotected, for disobedience removes us from the covering of God's
protecting grace. We are like a train that leaves the tracks in an effort
to find freedom. Yet, when it leaves the confines of the tracks, it finds
itself not liberated, just derailed.
Submission means yielding. If you have the right of way but see a big truck
coming your direction, it is not the time to stand in the way and demand
your rights. You simply need to make an adjustment. God's call to
submission not only includes yielding ourselves to Him and His will
as individuals, but also submission in other areas of our lives as well.
When we submit our lives in accordance with His word, we are in effect
submitting to God. Scriptures teach that we are called to submit one to
another. Children are to submit themselves to their parents and the young
to their elders. Wives are to submit themselves to their own husbands. And
we, as the church, are instructed to submit to the ordinances of men and to
those who are in authority and have rule over us. When we do not follow
God's plan of submission, we find ourselves derailed spiritually.
Submission to God's will, principles, and righteousness are an essential
part of our walk with Him. He wants us to move through life with an
inward assurance that He is in control of every aspect of our life.
Like the derailed train, we cannot move away form God's sovereign design
for our lives. We must have an undivided heart towards
Him, trusting that we are held securely in His hands. We are to
exercise patience and be in peace, knowing that whatever He has
committed to us, we can place right back into His hands and ask for His
help and direction. We are never without His help, for He knows that we
are but dust and that we need His wisdom that comes down from above.
We must ask for God's wisdom, trust His plan, and be thankful for all
that He allows, knowing that whatever happens in our lives has eternal
purposes in His mind. He is our gracious Heavenly Father and we should
ask Him to deal with anything in our lives that is contrary to His
purposes. As we humbly submit to His perfect will and timing, we can
rest assured that there is nothing that affects us that doesn't also
affect Him and that His grace will cover it all. +++

GO AND PREACH
Scripture: Mark 16:20 "And they went forth, and preached ever where, the
Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following."
Jesus told His disciples to go into all of the world and preach the gospel
to every creature, but He did not send them out empty handed. He empowered
them with His Holy Spirit and placed in their hands special gifts. All they
had to do was go, preach the word, and believe. He made a promise that He
would be with them where ever they went and that He would confirm His
preached word with signs.
This promise takes the pressure out of our ministry to others, for we know
that Jesus Christ is the same today as He was yesterday and that He will be
the same in the future. There is no shadow of turning with Him. He didn't
send His original disciples out empty handed and He will not send us out
empty handed either. He promises that if we will take the first step, He
will be with us all of the way. He works with us by anointing us with the
power of His Holy Spirit and filling our hands with signs and wonders so
that He can fulfill the needs of those around us. He simply said, "Go and
preach." He does the rest of the work. If He doesn't do it, it won't
happen. We can explain the plan of salvation, but God regenerates the
spirit of man. We can talk about deliverance and peace, but God breaks the
bondages and sets the soul free. We can tell others about healing and
financial provision, but only God can heal and provide. It is all a work of
His Holy Spirit.
Jesus told the church to go to the world. He never told the world to go to
the church. He depends upon you and me to go and do His work. We must
cultivate a spirit of evangelism within our hearts and obey His words.
People are precious in His sight and many of them are in trouble. They are
hurting, lost, and need a friend to love them and show them direction. We
may think that our gifts are insignificant compared to the world's need, and
we may feel that we have no answers. But Jesus can touch them through our
hands, be a voice to them through our lips, and listen to their problems
through our ears. We are the hope of His glory in the Earth. All that we
need to do is to go and preach His good news. He will work with us
confirming His word with signs and wonders. +++

THAT WHICH IS NOT
Scripture: Proverbs 23:5 "Will you set your eyes upon that which is not?
King Solomon, the richest and wisest man who ever lived, wrote these words
concerning riches. In this same verse, he continued to say,
"Riches certainly make themselves wings and fly away as an eagle towards
heaven." Riches are fleeting and elusive so Solomon advised in verse
four, "Labor not to be rich and cease from your own wisdom."
These words are just as true today as they were the day that Solomon wrote
them about 700 to 950 years before Christ was born. For in very recent
days, we have seen secure jobs terminated, retirement benefits lost, and
market investments diminished. The hopes and futures of many innocent
people have been dashed to pieces through no fault of their own. We had
set our eyes on the security of our riches and found as Solomon so wisely
stated, "they were not." The riches and security of many took wings and
suddenly flew way as an eagle towards heaven. It was devastating and
very sad.
As we think about Solomon's words and have witnessed the losses that many
have experienced, we come to the same conclusion that he did. We must not
labor to be rich, for the security of riches "is not." The only riches that
are secure are those eternal ones that we have in God, and the only labor
that is not in vain is the labor that we extend for Him. The only
investments that will never be lost are those that we invest into His
Kingdom, and the only treasures that are secure are the ones that we put
into God's hands for Him to hold. God is our only hope and security
and without Him, we are left very lacking. We must set our eyes upon God
and not upon those things "which are not." We must cease from our own
wisdom and acknowledge Him in all of our ways. Solomon also said in
Proverbs 3:5-6, we are to trust God with all of our heart and not lean upon
our own understanding. As we put our lives into God's hands and diligently
trust in His wisdom, He will direct our paths. Even in the times of great
loss, when our riches have taken flight, we will have nothing to fear. God
will remain our security and our labor will never be in vain. +++
