And Samuel said, Hath the Lord
as great delight in burnt offerings
and sacrifices, as in obeying
the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey
is better than sacrifice, and to hearken
than the fat of rams.
(1 Samuel 15:22)



TOPICS: Prayer
KEYWORDS: heroes; nation; pray
Father, You looked down from Your sanctuary on high, from heaven You viewed the earth, to hear the groans of the prisoners and release those who were condemned to death. Lord Jesus, in Your name and authority, we say to the devil, "Do not gloat over us, our enemy! Though we have fallen, we will rise. Though we sit in darkness, the Lord will be our light. We have sinned, but Christ bore our wrath on the cross. He pleads our case and establishes our right. He will bring us out into the light, and Your children in this nation, and all our American Heroes will see his righteousness. Then our enemy,"will see it and be covered with shame."

Father, Your Word clearly states that You will punish the world for its evil, the wicked for their sins. You will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty and will humble the pride of the ruthless. Lord, even mighty King Nebuchadnezzar learned to praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven and acknowledge that everything You do is right, that all Your ways are just, and that those who walk in pride, You are able to humble. Your Word says that pride hardens the heart. Your desire for us, Your children in this nation, and for all our American Heroes is that we be tenderhearted. Please melt any hardness of heart. In Jesus name, Amen

The Real Thing

March 27, 2012

A church in Naperville, Illinois, is basking in excitement about its brand-new bells in the belfry above its sanctuary. When the church was built many years ago, they didn’t have the money to purchase bells. However, for its 25th anniversary they were able to raise the funds to hang three bells in the vacant space. Even though they are stunning, there is one problem: the congregation will never hear the bells ring. Although they look real, they are artificial.

The apostle John wrote his first epistle to encourage believers not to just look like real Christians, but to prove they are genuine by how they live. The evidence that a person’s faith is real is not found in some mystical experience with God. The proof that people truly know and love God is found in submitting to His authority and to His Word. John writes, “But whoever keeps His Word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked” (1 John 2:5-6).

If we claim that we have been transformed by the gospel and intimately know and love God, we should validate it by our obedience to His Word.

Don’t listen to the Word of God
And then ignore what you have heard;
Instead obey God’s will for you—
Be doers of the Word. —Sper
Obedience to God is an expression of our love for God.

Read: 1 John 2:3-11

Whoever keeps His Word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. —1 John 2:5
Bible in a Year:
2 Samuel 16-18
