What more do you want?

BIBLE MEDITATION:
For the Lord your God is He that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you. Deuteronomy 20:4
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Do you remember the miracle God performed when He parted the Red Sea and brought the Israelites through it “on dry ground,” safely—when they were being hunted down by Pharaoh’s army? It was incredible. Now, let me ask you: What happened three days later? The Israelites began grumbling because there was no water! Do you think God would invest in such a miraculous deliverance for them, and then abandon them just days later? Absolutely not!
But what happens to us when we’re down in the dumps and wondering where God is taking us? We begin to act just like the Israelites! And yet God did something more for us than He did for the Israelites at the Red Sea—He sent His precious and only Son to die on Calvary’s cross for you and for me. God redeemed us for all eternity.
ACTION POINT:
More than God bringing you out of a watery grave, He delivered you from eternal damnation into glorious communion with Him forever! God saved you! What more could you possibly want?

Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
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.’”
