  Cook a Meal for Him DOROTHY DAY All that the friends of Christ did for him in his lifetime, we can do. Peter’s mother-in-law hastened to cook a meal for him, and if anything in the Gospels can be inferred, it surely is that she gave the very best she had, with no thought of extravagance. Matthew made a feast for him, inviting the whole town, so that the house was in an uproar of enjoyment, and the straitlaced Pharisees – the good people – were scandalized. Did the early Christians misunderstand Jesus? 3-30-23 Daily 

3-30-23 Daily Devotion

  The Desires of Your Heart When we learn to delight in the Lord, we are forever changed and discover unspeakable joy. March 30, 2023 Psalm 37:4-7 What is your greatest desire? We often read today’s passage and assume that it means God will give us whatever we want. It’s not uncommon for someone to talk about a prayer request and then add, “God promised to give me the desires of my heart.” But in context, that scripture reveals the Lord’s principle for purifying our desires and issues a call for devotion to Him. To delight in the Lord means to take pleasure in discovering more about Him and in following Him. As we do, the Holy Spirit aligns our heart’s desires with His, which positions us to experience His blessings.  When we commit our way to God, we allow our thoughts, goals, and lifestyle to be shaped by His will and the things He loves. In other words, we acknowledge His right to determine whether our longing fits His plan. If we rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him...

3-30-23 The Global Banking System Is Truly In Uncharted Territory, And They Are Making Up The Rules As They Go Along - by Michael Snyder

  The Global Banking System Is Truly In Uncharted Territory, And They Are Making Up The Rules As They Go Along   - by Michael Snyder -   http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/the-global-banking-system-is-truly-in-uncharted-territory-and-they-are-making-up-the-rules-as-they-go-along/   Fear is in the air. In recent days we have seen a level of panic that we have not witnessed since 2008, and in such an environment people just want to make sure that their money is safe. But there are very few places in our financial system that are truly “safe” at this point. The cryptocurrency industry has already experienced an absolutely disastrous crash, collapsing bond prices have blown a 620 billion dollar black hole in bank balance sheets, residential real estate prices have started to plummet, and now the largest commercial real estate crisis in the entire history of the United States is looming. The good news is that stock prices are holding steady for now, bu...

3-30-23 The Enemy’s Playbook For Counterfeit Truth and The Deception Of Nations

The Enemy’s Playbook For Counterfeit Truth and The Deception Of Nations – J.B. Hixson - https://harbingersdaily.com/the-enemys-playbook-for-counterfeit-truth-and-the-deception-of-nations/ Satan has been conspiring with fallen angels and human agents to take over the world for approximately six thousand years now. Just moments after his failed coup in heaven, he set his sights on earth, and he has been hard at work ever since, deceiving and devouring (Revelation 12:9; 1 Peter 5:8). His primary methodology is deception. He lies, tricks, and counterfeits in order to convince his victims that his way is better than God’s way. He “transforms himself into an angel of light,” and sadly, many fail to see through his disguise (2 Corinthians 11:14). His disguise can be quite convincing and persuasive (Ephesians 5:6; Colossians 2:4; 2 Thessalonians 2:3). Satan has many earthly co-conspirators working at his behest. Indeed, “many deceivers have gone out into the world.” (2 John 7) The ...

3-30-23 The Endgame Hasn’t Changed

The Endgame Hasn’t Changed - By Daymond Duck - https://www.raptureready.com/2022/08/07/the-endgame-hasnt-changed-by-daymond-duck/ On July 27, 2022, the Federal Reserve increased interest rates even though some financial experts believe the higher rates will cause a decline in home sales, a decline in home values, an increase in the number of people that can’t pay their mortgage, and an increase in unemployment. I am not a financial expert or a prophet, but it is my opinion that wrecking the housing industry might slow the economy and reduce inflation if the U.S. government reduced its spending and restored America’s energy independence, but that is not going to happen. Hence, it is my opinion that higher food prices, higher energy prices, and the march toward hyper-inflation and a global economic collapse will continue. Raising interest rates will slow the construction industry, force people out of work, force people into older and smaller houses, force the use of less ...

3-30-23 Hebrews Study: Jesus, Our Compassionate High Priest

Hebrews Study: Jesus, Our Compassionate High Priest :: By Sean Gooding Published on: August 4, 2022 by Admin10 Category:General Articles, Sean Gooding Hebrews 5:1-4 “For every high priest taken from among men is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2 He can have compassion on those who are ignorant and going astray, since he himself is also subject to weakness. 3 Because of this he is required as for the people, so also for himself, to offer sacrifices for sins. 4 And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called by God, just as Aaron was” (NKJV). Over the past few weeks, we have talked about Jesus’ role in our sinful state and how He is there to help us to sin less and also to help us be restored when we sin. There has been and is a lot of discussion about sin in the life of a Christian and what is and is not a Christian. There are things that we are called to be and do as Children of God. But a child of God ...

A Bachelor’s Stand :: By Edwin Tan Published on: August 6, 2022 by Admin10 Category:General Articles “And He answered and said to them, ‘Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no man separate” (Matthew 19:4-6). Reminds me of a nuptial; the above-mentioned would almost certainly not be missed out in the proceedings of such an event that seals a holy matrimony. Excuse me; I would stay away from weddings; the worldly facet seemingly overshadows the Godly significance of this happening with the soppy element, which is entirely manmade! The bridal train as the couple walks down the aisle, the bridesmaid, best man, flower girls, and even page boy – something classic crooners could sing about. Anathema for a rock and roll guy w...

Daily Prayer for March 29 CHRISTOPH FRIEDRICH BLUMHARDT “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

  Listening in the Wilds THOMAS COLE The good, the enlightened of all ages and nations, have found pleasure and consolation in the beauty of the rural earth. Prophets of old retired into the solitudes of nature to wait the inspiration of heaven. It was on Mount Horeb that Elijah witnessed the mighty wind, the earthquake, and the fire, and heard the “still small voice”; that voice is  yet  heard among the mountains! Saint John preached in the desert; the wilderness is  yet  a fitting place to speak of God. Nature has spread for us a rich and delightful banquet .

  Loving God by the Book When we commit to time in the Word, our faith deepens and our love grows. March 29, 2023 Psalm 119:105-112 No matter how busy life gets, we make time for what’s important to us. And of course, the wisest thing to do is to prioritize the things God values—such as reading His Word.   Here’s a little exercise that can help you realize there’s time in your day for Scripture. Photocopy the book of Philippians, cut it into sections, and tape it over the columns of your newspaper. All it will take up is three columns. The point is, if we take the time to read our favorite parts of the newspaper or scan the headlines on the internet, we can—in the same amount of time—read the entire book of Philippians.  So why not start there? Open your Bible to Philippians and ask the Lord to speak to you. As you read, pray over words that the Holy Spirit draws to your attention, and listen for whatever the Lord wants to say to you.  Praying through a book elevates...

  Psalm 23:1–3 “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.” “As our Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ calls us in His voice and His name. He seeks and gathers us. He teaches us how to minister in love. … We covenant to follow Him, not passively, blindly, or ‘sheepishly,’ but instead desiring with all our hearts and minds to love God and our neighbor, bearing one another’s burdens and rejoicing in one another’s joys.” —Elder Gerrit W.
