Put God First

Put God First By  Oswald Chamberrs – May 31, 2017  Jesus did not commit Himself to them…for He knew what was in man. —John 2:24-25   Put Trust in God First. Our Lord never put His trust in any person. Yet He was never suspicious, never bitter, and never lost hope for anyone, because He put His trust in God first. He trusted absolutely in what God’s grace could do for others. If I put my trust in human beings first,…

Verse of the Day – Luke 6:27-28 KJV

But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,  Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.

Yes—But…!

Yes—But…! By Oswald Chambers, May 30, 2017  Lord, I will follow You, but… —Luke 9:61    Suppose God tells you to do something that is an enormous test of your common sense, totally going against it. What will you do? Will you hold back? If you get into the habit of doing something physically, you will do it every time you are tested until you break the habit through sheer determination. And the same is true spiritually. Again and again you…

Untroubled Relationship

Untroubled Relationship By Oswald Chambers – May 29, 2017 In that day you will ask in My name…for the Father Himself loves you… —John 16:26-27 “In that day you will ask in My name…,” that is, in My nature. Not “You will use My name as some magic word,” but— “You will be so intimate with Me that you will be one with Me.” “That day” is not a day in the next life, but a day meant for here…

Keep Your Head Up

Sometimes, we just need to stop, look, and listen. God speaks to us all the time. Do we listen and see? This study is centered on the passage from Matthew below. The theme is to focus on our Deliverer, not what we desire deliverance from. This thought spurred me to draft this lesson mainly because we (or maybe it’s just me?) seem to have a lot of folks in our church, and in our extended church family, that are in need of deliverance from something.…

Unquestioned Revelation

Unquestioned Revelation By Oswald Chambers May 28, 2017 In that day you will ask Me nothing. —John 16:23    When is “that day”? It is when the ascended Lord makes you one with the Father. “In that day” you will be one with the Father just as Jesus is, and He said, “In that day you will ask Me nothing.” Until the resurrection life of Jesus is fully exhibited in you, you have questions about many things. Then after a…

Verse of the Day – Jeremiah 1:5 KJV

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

Thank You God!

Thank You God! I thought I would just let you know we serve an awesome God!  I have been working to improve my ‘prayer life’ and improve the relationship that God and I have together.  Lately, I’ve been a prayin’ and he’s been answerin’! For instance, Ed McGill fell last Saturday.  I prayed that God would heal him.  Sure enough, Wednesday night came, and there is Ed McGill sitting at the door of the Church when I walk in.  Another…

The Life to Know Him

The Life To Know Him By Oswald ChambersMay 27, 2017 …tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high. —Luke 24:49     The disciples had to tarry, staying in Jerusalem until the day of Pentecost, not only for their own preparation but because they had to wait until the Lord was actually glorified. And as soon as He was glorified, what happened? “Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and having…
