BIBLE MEDITATION:
Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
What is it about your life that you cannot explain apart from God? Do you know that’s the only part of you that is believable? Let me illustrate. If your neighbor can explain you, then you are just like him—only you’re religious. What is it in your life that demonstrates the supernatural power of a living God?
Friend, your life as a religious person is not going to convince your neighbor of God’s power. But when he sees God supernaturally meeting your needs—then you’re going to be believable.
ACTION POINT:
How is your life radiating the light of our Lord in your neighborhood? Invite your neighbors over for a time of fellowship this Christmas season. It’s an open door to share with them the Good News of the divine birth of Jesus.
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
