Sunday’s Memory Verse, 9/15/24

Verse for Meditation, 9/5/24

Cindy Dawson

“What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” James 4:14 NIV

Today I turned 73! It crossed my mind just how fleeting my youth had been. It seems like yesterday when I was a college student, when I was a new mother, when my children were adorable little toddlers learning letters and numbers. How did it go by so fast? (And who is that old lady in my mirror?)

Then I thought about what the Bible says,

“You are merely a vapor [like a puff of smoke or a wisp of steam from a cooking pot] that is visible for a little while and then vanishes [into thin air].” James 4:14 AMP

Our present life here on this earth is like a vanishing mist. Eternity is forever! I’m beginning to understand how quickly this life passes by. But eternity with Jesus awaits all of us who believe and trust in Him. Now that gives us a lot to think about!

Verses for Meditation, 7/25/24

Cindy Dawson

“For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the Jews on behalf of God’s truth, so that the promises made to the patriarchs might be confirmed and, moreover, that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy.” Romans 15:8 NIV (emphasis mine)

Study Bible Notes: “Paul points out that Christ came first as a servant to His own people (Matt. 15:24). Paul may have done that to humble the haughty Gentiles in the Roman church.” (David Jeremiah)

Stand Up For The Truth

Cindy Dawson

Condoning sin never helped a single sinner find healing. In fact, speaking truth is how we engage in spiritual warfare. It is how we fight the enemy. Standing for the truth isn’t always easy. Backing down from it only strengthens Satan’s grip on those in darkness.

Leading sinners to Christ is our mission, but isn’t standing up for truth also our mission? The truth, found in God’s Word, isn’t popular today. But only truth will set the captive free.

I have little optimism that the world will embrace Christian values as it once did. In fact, things look more and more like the days of Noah. Only revival can change the trajectory we’re on.

“We are living in a time, in an era when there are people who are desperately wicked, and in desperate need of repentance and faith, in desperate need of the Gospel. And we’re being told that the wickedness is, in fact, the Gospel,” … such a worldview is destructive because it not only calls good evil and evil good, but also “alienates people from the only hope that they have.”

Voddie Baucham

Jesus prayed to His Father, saying, “Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth” NIV (John 17:17).

So yes! We can know what is true because the truth is found in God’s Word. We must love the truth more than we love what we want to be true.

To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32 NIV Read full chapter

You can make a case for almost anything you want to be true. People do it all the time by taking verses out of context. If you are seeking truth, you won’t do that. Ask yourself, What is my motivation? Is it to prove my opinion is right, or to seek the truth?

The Bible is clear about what constitutes sin. We don’t have to wonder about it. God does this to keep us safe from the consequences of sin. Stop and think for a moment about the consequences of sexual perversion, adultery, transgender ideology, and abortion. There is nothing good to be found.

To stand in evil times, we must love truth. We can’t stand against evil if we compromise.

“Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist …”

Condoning sin never helped a single sinner find healing. Speak truth in love.

In His Love, Cindy
