....................No Jesus, No peace...Know Jesus, Know Peace.................
The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and He knows those who trust in Him. –Nahum 1:7
...Thru the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee Revelation 4:1-6...
Now in our continuing study of Revelation, the scene shifts from earth to heaven. Jesus is central, directing all events as the Lamb who died for the sins of the world; He is now the Judge at the throne of God. Only the Holy Spirit could describe what we read about heaven in this passage. Get ready for awesome things.
...Thru the Bible - Minute with McGee Dr. J. Vernon McGee...
Faith And Repentance
Now somebody says, “Well, isn’t the unsaved supposed to repent?” Not the way you think of it. He’s told to “believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.” That’s what Paul said to the Philippian jailer, and that old rascal needed to do some repenting. But, you see, in faith there is repentance. You see “faith” means you turn to Christ. Now when you turn to Christ, you turn from something; and if you don’t turn from something, you don’t turn to Him, you see. And so repentance is in the word “believe” today. And I think that’s the primary message that should be given to the lost today—is to believe. The important thing is to trust Christ as your Savior. And if you’ve really done it, if you’ve turned to Him, you’ve turned from something.
...Daily Promises...
And I will bring the blind by a way [that] they knew not; I will lead them in paths [that] they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them. (Isaiah 42:16)
The incredible love of the Father shines upon His children bringing them out of their evil darkness and into His glorious light. His light guides His people through the shadows of death. And through the grave difficulties of their lives, they are brought into places of indescribable peace and joy. As believers of Christ, we are promised this ever-present light that will lead us into the gracious sanctuary of the Lord. In this we can find hope in an everlasting rest.

...Help Is On The Way!...
Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD. -- Psalm 70:1
We often try everything we can on our own, but soon, we realize that we are in too deep. We are in the middle of trouble, and we need God to come help us.

C. H. Spurgeon's Evening Reading (January 26th)
"All they that heard it wondered at those things." — Luke 2:18
We must not cease to wonder at the great marvels of our God. It would be very difficult to draw a line between holy wonder and real worship; for when the soul is overwhelmed with the majesty of God's glory, though it may not express itself in song, or even utter its voice with bowed head in humble prayer, yet it silently adores. Our incarnate God is to be worshipped as "the Wonderful." That God should consider His fallen creature, man, and instead of sweeping him away with the besom of destruction, should Himself undertake to be man's Redeemer, and to pay his ransom price, is, indeed marvellous! But to each believer redemption is most marvellous as he views it in relation to himself. It is a miracle of grace indeed, that Jesus should forsake the thrones and royalties above, to suffer ignominiously below for you. Let your soul lose itself in wonder, for wonder is in this way a very practical emotion. Holy wonder will lead you to grateful worship and heartfelt thanksgiving. It will cause within you godly watchfulness; you will be afraid to sin against such a love as this. Feeling the presence of the mighty God in the gift of His dear Son, you will put off your shoes from off your feet, because the place whereon you stand is holy ground. You will be moved at the same time to glorious hope. If Jesus has done such marvellous things on your behalf, you will feel that heaven itself is not too great for your expectation. Who can be astonished at anything, when he has once been astonished at the manger and the cross? What is there wonderful left after one has seen the Saviour? Dear reader, it may be that from the quietness and solitariness of your life, you are scarcely able to imitate the shepherds of Bethlehem, who told what they had seen and heard, but you can, at least, fill up the circle of the worshippers before the throne, by wondering at what God has done.

C. H. Spurgeon's Morning Reading (January 27th)
"And of his fulness have all we received." — John 1:16
These words tell us that there is a fulness in Christ. There is a fulness of essential Deity, for "in Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead." There is a fulness of perfect manhood, for in Him, bodily, that Godhead was revealed. There is a fulness of atoning efficacy in His blood, for "the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, cleanseth us from all sin." There is a fulness of justifying righteousness in His life, for "there is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus." There is a fulness of divine prevalence in His plea, for "He is able to save to the uttermost them that come unto God by Him; seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them." There is a fulness of victory in His death, for through death He destroyed him that had the power of death, that is the devil. There is a fulness of efficacy in His resurrection from the dead, for by it "we are begotten again unto a lively hope." There is a fuIness of triumph in His ascension, for "when He ascended up on high, He led captivity captive, and received gifts for men." There is a fulness of blessings of every sort and shape; a fulness of grace to pardon, of grace to regenerate, of grace to sanctify, of grace to preserve, and of grace to perfect. There is a fulness at all times; a fulness of comfort in affliction; a fulness of guidance in prosperity. A fulness of every divine attribute, of wisdom, of power, of love; a fulness which it were impossible to survey, much less to explore. "It pleased the Father that in Him should all fulness dwell." Oh, what a fulness must this be of which all receive! Fulness, indeed, must there be when the stream is always flowing, and yet the well springs up as free, as rich, as full as ever. Come, believer, and get all thy need supplied; ask largely, and thou shalt receive largely, for this "fulness" is inexhaustible, and is treasured up where all the needy may reach it, even in Jesus, Immanuel—God with us.

Thank you, I usually give myself about an hour or so, plus or minus to finish each day - but choosing a theme sometimes extends that process. I'm hopeful to get a few more Grace Notes out there as well.
