9.15.18 –ly devotion to Christ.
Sometimes we must have the thorns to experience the triumph. Sometimes we must
the valley to experience the mountain top. Sometimes the dark before the light!
We need believers who will be mature enough to keep an “even keel” through the
storms of life and not “tossed about with every wind of doctrine.” S. E.

My prayer for you today is for you to rest in the sufficiency of God’s
grace which He has promised to supply for every need!
1 Corinthians 9:27 But I keep under my body, and
bring it into subjection: lest
that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a
castaway. KJV
“God does prefer one way of living over another. And that which He
prefers is based on a bedrock commitment to His word and His ways. And the
results are always supernatural. A TV camera crew was on assignment in Southern
Florida filming the widespread destruction of Hurricane Andrew. In one scene,
amid the devastation and debris, stood one house on its foundation. The owner
was cleaning up the yard when the reporter approached. “Sir, why is your house
the only one standing?” asked the reporter. “How did you manage to escape the
severe damage of the hurricane?” “I built the house myself,” the man replied.
“I also built it according to Florida State building code. When the code called
for 2x6 trusses, I used 2x6 trusses. I was told that a house built according to
code could withstand a hurricane. I did, and it did.” Obedience to His Word is
critical when it comes to whether or not we are pleasing Him.”
