What Is A Day


“With the LORD a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day” (2 Peter 3:8).

So what’s our big hurry? Have you ever watched the news when they show the traffic report of a large city from a helicopter—all the cars speeding along on the highways diverting off on feeders and exits going north, south, east, and west and doing eighty miles an hour—looking like millions of busy little ants. Busy, busy, busy chattering on our cell phones, doing what we think is vitally important—trying to make the most of our day.

Wait a second what’s wrong with this picture? Are we truly making the most of our day(s)? I hope we are. If we are starting our day with a prayer acknowledging God’s plan for our day, and during the day we stop every once in a while to thank Him for all He has given us. If at the end of the day we get down on our knees and thank Him for our jobs, our spouses, our children, or friends, the homes we live in, our financial resources, our health, our nation, our leaders. If every chance we get during the day we pray for Jerusalem, and His peace in the world. 

What is truly, no vitally, important about our day is that we first honor our LORD, Jesus Christ thanking Him for our salvation; acknowledging that without Him our day would no doubt be hell. Thank you Jesus for saving our day!

I pray you have a blessed day today!

Apostates Predicted

Sensual persons who cause divisions   I quote from the Book of Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, who was addressing those who were called , sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ. In verses 16 through 19, Jude warned of apostates who would come around and make themselves known. He described them as grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts , to use Jude’s own words. He went on to describe them as those who would be mouthing swelling words, flattering to gain advantage . Jude continued saying, “But you beloved, remember the words which were spoken before the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. Fast-forward now to today; to our present time, the year 2012. How is this book (Jude) of very few words; the little book which precedes the last book of the Bible; Revelation relevant to our (contemporary...

By His Authority

God has given His authority. God’s plan for authority has been given to His people: authority in the church (1 Peter 5:1-2) which says, “shepherd the flock of God which is among you;” authority in the home (Colossians 3:18-25,) “Wives submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord, as is fitting in the Lord;” authority in your workplace (Ephesians 6:5-9) “Bondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters…; and authority in civil government (Romans    13:1-7) “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God….” Authority as planned by God seems awkward and unfitting in today’s societies – not that His plan is inappropriate, certainly this is not true. It is more that people have deviated from God’s plan to what seems more suited to their personal lives for whatever reasons they justify. It is it any wonder we have dysfunctional families, government and na...

God never changes who He is

The popular cry of the people here in America today is for “change.” Yet in some parts of the world there are those who use all means, including terrorism to resist it. There are some people who are determined to leave ancient traditions, and often times, corruptible governments just as they are, and have been for hundreds of thousands of years. Many of these nations do not recognize God. God is always the same; today, tomorrow, and forever. He never changes; this knowledge about Him enables us to have total reliability in Him. His character is as follows: God is omnipotent . All power is His, and nothing is beyond His control. He enforces His perfect will. He is unstoppable by any force in heaven or on earth! God is omnipresent. He is everywhere imaginable and unimaginable all at the same time! No person or place is beyond His presence. Space and time are before Him always. He determines everything for all places and all persons. God is omniscient. All that is happening to all ...
