BIBLE MEDITATION:
The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death, light is sprung up. Matthew 4:16
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
There are two witnesses for the existence of God to all people:
? One is the objective witness of creation.
? The other is the subjective witness of conscience.
God speaks to a man and the man responds, “God, I want to know You and I need to know You. I do believe that You exist.”
That’s faith. And he goes from faith to faith as he steps in the light until he comes to the Lord Jesus Christ.
I believe with all my heart there’s never been a man or woman who ever lived on the face of this earth who died without some opportunity to have received Christ, had they lived up to the light God gave them.
ACTION POINT:
Is there someone in your life who claims to be an agnostic or an atheist? Consistently show them the love of Jesus. Continually pray that God will reveal Himself to them. Pray for willingness to hear His voice.
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.’”
