Daily Devotional – October 6, 2011

Luke and others traveled with Paul on those early missionary journeys, going to places where people had never heard the Gospel of Christ, the message of Salvation, or the Hope of Eternal Life. What Joy must have filled the hearts of those who, for the first time heard God’s WORD, as told from such a Faithful messenger as Paul, who himself had been ‘transformed of soul’. A message which clearly changed Paul’s life, and his outlook on the things which are of Eternal consequence. I must say that I am amazed and in awe at the number of Promises in God’s WORD which deal with everyday life and the many situations that I find myself in. Yet, who knows better about my life, and how I must live, than my Creator, my Lord and my Savior, whom I have placed my Trust and Hope in, for it will be how Faithful am in this life, living to please God, for that is what HE desires for me. God’s WORD is LIFE, that in itself is cause for me to cling to each and every WORD, much like each breath of air that I breathe, it has to be the source of my existence, much like it was for Paul, Luke and the others that traveled preaching and teaching about the Messiah, Christ Jesus. Life must be more about the TRUTH, and my God who holds me so tightly in HIS Loving hands, that I can almost feel and hear HIS breath. Where death has been conquered by Christ, no more to hold me or any other Believer captive. It is living a life hidden in Christ, that the Peace and Promises of God are realized. O’Lord, show me the depths of YOUR heart, as I am surrounded by YOUR Presence. Guide me by Holy Spirit, manifesting every Promise given by YOUR WORD. All else will fail, but YOUR WORD will endure forever. Teach me YOUR Ways and judge the attitude of my heart. May my labors be forever fruitful, declaring YOUR message of Salvation and Truth. YOU are the Life which every hungry soul desires. YOUR Kingdom must advance, flourish and increase throughout the earth, as YOUR Faithful messengers Proclaim Christ Jesus to every nation, Amen ]]]]> ]]>
