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...

Two Kinds of Wisdom

That which is earthly, and that which is heavenly The Bible speaks of us being exposed to two kinds of wisdom; one that subjects us to bitterness, envy and selfish ambition, e.g. earthly wisdom , and that which comes from heaven which is first of all pure; peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. In (James 3:13) this servant of God, asked , “Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.” Which form of wisdom will you profess; that which is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil or that which is of heaven? At the time of Jesus’ birth, three wise men from the east came to Jerusalem seeking the one who was now born King of the Jews . King Herod called upon these three to “Go and make a careful search for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.” he said in; (Matthew 2:8) -- the three wise men were told by He...

A Promise is a Promise

When you were a child did your parents ever promise to take you somewhere special for your birthday? Maybe they promised you could stay up late with them the night of your birthday? You never doubted their promises did you? I mean, a promise is a promise. If they told you they were going to do something you just knew it was going to happen! I remember how excited I was when my parents promised me something and they gave it to me!  I’ll never forget how I trusted them. Neither can I forget the promises God has made and kept for me in my lifetime. He has always been faithful to deliver what He has promised to me. Sometimes the evil one tries to convince me God hasn’t delivered though. He tries to convince me God changes His mind. Its times like this that I will to remain strong. I read what God says and declare how great my God is! Just because we don’t see His fulfillment according to our understanding at that particular time does not mean He hasn’t done it or isn’t going to do ...
