....................No Jesus, No peace...Know Jesus, Know Peace.................
Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart. – Jeremiah 15:16
...Thru the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee Revelation 12:10-17...
For the first time since Jesus Christ’s death made it possible for us to be saved, God’s power is exerted against evil. This is the scene of the dragon’s last stand as he’s kicked out of heaven and everyone there rejoices. But everyone on earth weeps. This is the Dragon’s last stand, since Satan knows his time is short. Even then, God protects Israel, the object of Satan’s final attack. Don’t miss this cosmic drama.
...Thru the Bible - Minute with McGee Dr. J. Vernon McGee...
We Are Not Worthy
Unless you have really committed your life to Him, paid a price, I wouldn’t talk much about my commitment to Christ. I hear a great deal about a commitment to Christ today. I soft pedal that because I find that Simon Peter and myself have never been too good at this type of thing. But, thank God, He’s faithful. That’s the wonder of it all. And verse 38: “He that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.” I wish I could have heard Him use that expression “not worthy of me.” Many of us are not, but, thank God, He’ll not throw us overboard, but it means He’s not going to use us unless we’re really committed to Him
...Daily Promises...
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all [men] liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. (James 1:5)
What an incredible promise! If we lack wisdom all we have to do is ask God and He promises to give it to us. He will not scold us for asking, for He gives it out freely!
Jesus, I am asking You, now, for Your wisdom. You have promised that you will freely give it and I trust in that promise!

...Is It Necessary?...
For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things. -- Acts 15:28
So many times, we carry the weight of so much that it drags us down to where we are almost defeated and deflated. But is it necessary?

The "Establishment" of the church may tell you to surrender because you are too young, too old, over/under educated, too fat, etc. If you really want to minister there are ways to get it done. There are more than enough lost, hurting, lonely and screwed up people to minister to where the only sanction you need is from God. You do not have to start a church or some group. Just find a place to serve. You are called to serve. Titles, positions and salaries can often get in the way of that because you become bogged down in details that mean nothing in eternity.
God has gifted you and you are called to use them so when someone tells you that you do not meet their criteria just be sure you are meeting God's criteria and say, "Nuts" and move on for His glory. Don't allow them to defeat you when you can just receive His victory. Hooah! Maranatha!

C. H. Spurgeon's Evening Reading (February 25th)
"But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the Lord, and went down to Joppa." — Jonah 1:3
Instead of going to Nineveh to preach the Word, as God bade him, Jonah disliked the work, and went down to Joppa to escape from it. There are occasions when God's servants shrink from duty. But what is the consequence? What did Jonah lose by his conduct? He lost the presence and comfortable enjoyment of God's love. When we serve our Lord Jesus as believers should do, our God is with us; and though we have the whole world against us, if we have God with us, what does it matter? But the moment we start back, and seek our own inventions, we are at sea without a pilot. Then may we bitterly lament and groan out, "O my God, where hast Thou gone? How could I have been so foolish as to shun Thy service, and in this way to lose all the bright shinings of Thy face? This is a price too high. Let me return to my allegiance, that I may rejoice in Thy presence." In the next place, Jonah lost all peace of mind. Sin soon destroys a believer's comfort. It is the poisonous upas tree, from whose leaves distil deadly drops which destroy the life of joy and peace. Jonah lost everything upon which he might have drawn for comfort in any other case. He could not plead the promise of divine protection, for he was not in God's ways; he could not say, "Lord, I meet with these difficulties in the discharge of my duty, therefore help me through them." He was reaping his own deeds; he was filled with his own ways. Christian, do not play the Jonah, unless you wish to have all the waves and the billows rolling over your head. You will find in the long run that it is far harder to shun the work and will of God than to at once yield yourself to it. Jonah lost his time, for he had to go to Nineveh after all. It is hard to contend with God; let us yield ourselves at once.

C. H. Spurgeon's Morning Reading (February 26th)
"Salvation is of the Lord." — Jonah 2:9
Salvation is the work of God. It is He alone who quickens the soul "dead in trespasses and sins," and it is He also who maintains the soul in its spiritual life. He is both "Alpha and Omega." "Salvation is of the Lord." If I am prayerful, God makes me prayerful; if I have graces, they are God's gifts to me; if I hold on in a consistent life, it is because He upholds me with His hand. I do nothing whatever towards my own preservation, except what God Himself first does in me. Whatever I have, all my goodness is of the Lord alone. Wherein I sin, that is my own; but wherein I act rightly, that is of God, wholly and completely. If I have repulsed a spiritual enemy, the Lord's strength nerved my arm. Do I live before men a consecrated life? It is not I, but Christ who liveth in me. Am I sanctified? I did not cleanse myself: God's Holy Spirit sanctifies me. Am I weaned from the world? I am weaned by God's chastisements sanctified to my good. Do I grow in knowledge? The great Instructor teaches me. All my jewels were fashioned by heavenly art. I find in God all that I want; but I find in myself nothing but sin and misery. "He only is my rock and my salvation." Do I feed on the Word? That Word would be no food for me unless the Lord made it food for my soul, and helped me to feed upon it. Do I live on the manna which comes down from heaven? What is that manna but Jesus Christ himself incarnate, whose body and whose blood I eat and drink? Am I continually receiving fresh increase of strength? Where do I gather my might? My help cometh from heaven's hills: without Jesus I can do nothing. As a branch cannot bring forth fruit except it abide in the vine, no more can I, except I abide in Him. What Jonah learned in the great deep, let me learn this morning in my closet: "Salvation is of the Lord."
