Apr 22nd What a great day for the Rapture. Hope you read to know Him.
Joshua goers the way of all men. Are you prepared to go that way? What a great history lesson is given by an old saint and the children made some very serious vows to GOD, Joshua and each other. How similar to this is the local church charter that we all "signed on for" when we joined? Again it appears that a choice is given that results in a blessing or a curse, and how many times has this statement been made? Look back at what we have read in a few days, The Book of Joshua, that took 30 years to accomplish. What did you learn about GOD? Please don't focus on the vessel, but partake and enjoy what is in the vessel.
Joshua 24:33 Requirements to serve The LORD are specific and consistent with all previous commandments,charges,statues and laws.From the other side of the flood, through all the wanderings to taking the Promise Land GOD has not changed! Get over it and learn from these old people. We need to be careful "to hear" and obedient to do what we have been told to do and what we said we would do. Stewardship and always being prepared to give an account. The same option is given to believers of today as it was with Joshua and the children"choose you this day whom ye will serve". Now whom did you choose to serve today? What "stone" is your witness before GOD? If this is your first time to read the 365 then take note this is the end of the good old days. Review your names,attributes,traits and characteristics of GOD. Selah.

Luke 21:1-28 One day it will be worth it all. We can, those that are saved today and before the rapture,can watch this all come to pass.We can read about the tribulation period and be grateful for our salvation. The prophets told the children and Jesus told the disciples that there would be deceivers, wars and disasters in the last days, days of apostasy, even that not one stone of the temple would be upon another.How does this "news" affect your concept of The LORD? When you see how Jesus watched the poor widow give her offering and then comparing the offering of the "rich" people how does this impact your concept of stewardship? Does the giving start in the heart or in the pocket? There are probably 1-300 one dollar bills given in the offering plate when compared to the $50.00 bills. Next time compare what you give versus what you hold on to for a season. Every thing ought to be in respect to the immanent return of The Lord Jesus Christ for us Christians.

Psalm 89:38-52 This song has told the story of a man's desire for his GOD.Who gives us mercy? What is the name of the God that is Almighty GOD? How have we seen His power?Is He a covenant keeping GOD?How often do we plead for Him to keep His promises?Let us be grateful, thankful, fearful and respectful of our LORD and Saviour. Let us read to know Him, pray to thank Him and walk with Him confidently.

Proverbs 13:20-23 draws a harsh comparison of men and calls them wise of fools.How do you think of yourself? How/what does The LORD think of you, your companions, your conduct and your stewardship? We all must give an account of our thoughts and deeds. Thanks be onto God for our salvation and that we do not pay for our "sin debt"! pj
