February 28 niceA Place for Jesus
Can you imagine going home tonight and getting ready to go to bed when, all of a sudden, you see someone walking up to your front door and knocking? Lo and behold, it is Jesus. How would you react? Of course, we know this isn't going to happen. The Lord isn't going to physically come to our homes and knock on the front door. But let's just let our imaginations run wild for a moment and pretend that He was. Let's turn the clock back to 2,000 years ago and imagine that Jesus Himself was knocking at your door. Would you open it up and gladly welcome Him in? Or would you feel a little apprehensive? The fact is, we should be living our lives in such a way that Jesus Christ Himself could come walking into our homes at any moment and we would welcome Him without embarrassment. The Bible says that Christ should be able to settle down and be at home in our hearts. That is an interesting statement to make to Christians. But those were Paul's words to the church of Ephesus. He said, "I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts. . . ." The phrase Paul used doesn't just mean that Christ would simply live in their hearts. The reality is that He lives in the heart of every believer. The point Paul was making was that Christ should feel at home in their hearts. Is Jesus at home in your heart right now? Is He comfortable? Is He at ease? February 20 Got to read Why Read The Bible? "I'm a busy person. I have a lot to do. Why should I spend my time reading the Bible? I don't have time to do all I need to do as it is." "I already believe in Jesus Christ, that He's the Son of God and my Savior. I've already heard the Gospel." "Why should I read the Bible?" Read the following Scriptures. Then, if you still wonder why you should read the Bible, you need help. JOHN 8:31-32 RSV 31 Jesus then said to the Jews who had believed in him, "If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." JOHN 14:23-24 Rieu 23 Jesus replied: 'If anyone loves me he will cherish my word; my Father will love him and we will come to him and make him our abode. 24 He that does not love me neglects my words. Yet the word you hear is not my own but that of the Father who sent me. ACTS 20:32 NKJ 32 "So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified. SAY THIS: I will read and study the Bible. February 19 .Who Can Be Against Us? ROMANS 8:31 NKJ 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? We all face opposition. No one likes it. But opposition is a fact of life on earth. But here's a more important fact: with God for us, opposition doesn't really matter. With God on our side, what does it matter who opposes us? The worst anyone can do is kill us -- which would be doing us a favor. (Being a martyr for Christ and going to be with Him in Heaven is not bad!) And never forget: God IS for you! PSALM 56:9 KJV 9 When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me. PSALM 118:6-7 LB 6 He is for me! How can I be afraid? What can mere man do to me? 7 The Lord is on my side; he will help me. Let those who hate me beware. SAY THIS: God is for me, so no one can successfully be against me. http://www.trustingodamerica.com/FiveStepsCov.htm
