​PASTOR CECIL · Pastor Cecil's Devotional: "FEARLESS!" Psalm 27:1

FEARLESS!​

Psalm 27:1 – Devotional

Psalm 27:1

“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?”

Asking for divine help is not necessarily during the times of emergency or threats. We can come to the end of our endurance in a number of ways. We can become physically exhausted, mentally fatigued or even spiritually depleted. Regardless of our condition we can always trust the Lord to be there for us. Praise the Lord!

We are told that David was a man after God’s own heart. That certainly does not mean that David always did what was right. He was as much a sinner as each and every human born into the world. But I am so thankful that David confessed his sin and continued to walk with the Lord.

God never calls us to be perfect! If that was the case I certainly would fall short of that goal. (Don’t become too smug. God knows your heart as well!). God does call us to reach out to Him and allow Him to be our light and salvation.

In what or in whom are you relying for your eternal destiny? If you trust in the so-called wisdom of men you will face terrible disappointment. Only the Lord Jesus Christ offers us confidence that we can face eternity – – FEARLESS! My hope is built on nothing less than Christ and His righteousness!

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!

​PASTOR CECIL · Pastor Cecil's Devotional: JESUS LOVES ME! Luke 18:15-17

JESUS LOVES ME!

Luke 18:15-17 – Devotional

Luke 18:15-17

“People were also bringing babies to Jesus to have him touch them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to him and said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.’”

In 1860, Susan Warner wrote a novel titled, “Say and Seal”. She alluded to the fact that Jesus loves little children. After the novel had been published and circulated, she was informed by a Sunday School teacher that a young boy was lying in the hospital near death.

Susan called her sister, Anna, and asked if she could write a hymn for the teacher to sing to the dying lad. Anna wrote the first verse and two years later, William Bradbury wrote the second and third stanzas.

The simple words of this song speak volumes. I heard the story of an old retired minister who had returned to speak at the church he had pastored for many years. He had not been seen by the congregation for a very long time and they were very anxious to hear what his words of wisdom would be. Slowly he made his way to the microphone and spoke in a soft voice: “Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so!” His words were more powerful than the best prepared sermon.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

JESUS LOVES ME

1. Jesus loves me! This I know, For the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to Him belong; They are weak, but He is strong.

Refrain: Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.

2. Jesus loves me He who died, Heaven’s gate to open wide;
He will wash away my sin, Let His little child come in.

Refrain: Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.

3. Jesus, take this heart of mine, Make it pure and wholly Thine;
On the cross You died for me, I will try to live for Thee.

Refrain: Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.

Jesus really does care for you, regardless of your age. In His eyes you are one of His “little children!” Let Him love you and care for you.

​PASTOR CECIL · Pastor Cecil's Devotional: "BE ALERT!" Mark 13:33

BE ALERT!​

Mark 13:33 – Devotional

Mark 13:33

“Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come.”

One of the major elements in defending against aggression is being on alert at all times. I can still recall the long night hours when I was on alert for any sign of threat to our nation. Thankfully we were never attacked, but there were many simulated threats to insure our readiness to react.

When you are wide awake and expectant it is much easier to react quickly and appropriately. When the night hours slip by and your eyes feel like they are filled with sand, it is necessary to react in a professional manner that comes from long hours of training.

In our spiritual walk we never know when the enemy will mount an attack. We can almost be certain that this attack will occur when we are weary and worn. If we have not spent the time in self examination, prayer, and Bible study, we will be very vulnerable to the attack.

There is one thing we can be sure about—we will meet our Lord face to face. It may be at the moment our eyes close in death or it may be when the trumpet sounds and we are called up to meet the Lord in the air. Either way, we must be on the alert with our lamps burning bright. Are you on the alert?!

Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!

​PASTOR CECIL · Pastor Cecil's Devotional: "GOD’S SUPPLY!" Philippians 4:19

GOD’S SUPPLY!​

Philippians 4:19 – Devotional

Philippians 4:19

“But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”

During my teen years I worked for a milk processing plant. Since I was always the lowest man on the list, it was not uncommon to be sent to the supply depot and deliver whatever was needed to meet the needs of whichever department needed it.

If that makes you question what it was that I did, you are not alone. I often asked myself the same question. The easiest answer is that I simply tried to do what I was asked to do in the best and fastest way I knew how.

You know, as I think about it there has not been much change. I have come to understand that the best way for me to serve the Lord is to keep my ears open for His instructions for me to follow.

The times in my spiritual life that I encountered problems were the times I failed to do the Lord’s will, or that I hesitated (drug my feet) before reluctantly obeying. Oh, how much easier it is when we respond without delay! Lead on Lord Jesus!

​PASTOR CECIL · Pastor Cecil's Devotional: "WE CAN TRUST IN GOD!​" 2 Samuel 22:31

WE CAN TRUST IN GOD!​

2 Samuel 22:31 – Devotional

2 Samuel 22:31

“As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: He is a buckler to all them that trust in Him.”

The phrase; IN GOD WE TRUST, was officially adopted as the motto of the United States back in 1956. There has always been a conflict with the motto by opponents of anything spiritual. Atheists hate the very thought of yielding to the rule of God in the life of a nation.

Regardless of what the opponents of the Lord think or say, there is a truth that can never be denied: WE CAN TRUST IN GOD! We may not be able to trust in human bureaucracy, but God can always be trusted.

When we encounter the storms of life, be they personal or national, we have the assurance that God can always be trusted. In the past individuals, families, groups, and even nations have disappointed us, but the Lord has never failed us. We have all too often failed Him, but He always remains faithful and true!

As we go forth to live our life for Christ, let us determine from the very core of our being that we will trust in the Lord with everything. Hold nothing back and cast all of our cares and concerns on Him because we know that God not only cares for us, He is far bigger than our most troublesome concerns! WE CAN TRUST IN GOD!
