#ThursdayThoughts for true believers in our #Lord #Jesus #Christ: "Nothing is more strengthening to #Faith, stabilizing to the mind, and tranquilizing to the heart of a #Christian, than for him to be enabled to discern his Father's hand guiding, shaping, ..
and controlling everything which enters his life; and not only so, but that He is also governing this world, and all people and events in it.

God is not shaken by the situation which now confronts our view, nor does the pride, arrogance, and blasphemy ..
of His enemies occasion Him any uneasiness. To the contrary "He who sits in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision" (Psalm. 2:4).

God is not troubled by anything that is now taking place in His world - either in its political, social, ..
or religious sphere; nor should we be troubled. The helm is still in His hand; and Satan himself cannot so much as touch a hair of our heads, without His direct permission."

~ Arthur Pink, "Divine Providence"

#SaturdayMorning #SaturdayThoughts "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His #Mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the #HolySpirit; Which He shed on us abundantly through #Jesus #Christ our #Savior; ..
That being justified by His #Grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.--Titus 3:5-7
To teach that the filling with the #HolySpirit is given to the #Christian to provide "power for service" is to teach truth, but not the whole #Truth. ..
Power for service is but one effect of the experience, and I do not hesitate to say that it is the least of several effects. It is least for the very reason that it touches service, presumably service to mankind; and contrary to the popular belief, ..

#FridayFeeling #Faith or Experience?
…the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. —Galatians 2:20
We should battle through our moods, feelings, and emotions into absolute devotion to the #Lord #Jesus. ..
We must break out of our own little world of experience into abandoned devotion to Him. Think who the New Testament says #Jesus #Christ is, and then think of the despicable meagerness of the miserable #faith we exhibit ..
by saying, “I haven’t had this experience or that experience”! Think what #faith in #Jesus #Christ claims and provides— He can present us faultless before the throne of God, inexpressibly pure, absolutely righteous, and profoundly justified. ..

Self Deception and How to Avoid It

OF ALL FORMS OF DECEPTION, self-deception is the most deadly, and of all deceived persons the self-deceived are the least likely to discover the fraud.

The reason for this is simple. ..
When a man is deceived by another he is deceived against his will. He is contending against an adversary and is temporarily the victim of the other's guile. Since he expects his foe to take advantage of him he is watchful and quick to suspect trickery. ..
Under such circumstances it is possible to be deceived sometimes and for a short while, but because the victim is resisting he may break out of the trap and escape before too long.

With the self-deceived it is quite different. He is his own enemy ..

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made. ..
In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." (John 1:1-5)

The five verses now before us contain a statement of matchless sublimity concerning the divine nature of our #Lord #Jesus #Christ. He ..
it is, beyond all question, whom John means when he speaks of "the Word." No doubt there are heights and depths in that statement which are far beyond man's understanding. And yet there are plain lessons in it, which every #Christian would do well to treasure up in his mind. ..

#wednesdaythought for true believers in our #Lord #Jesus #Christ, We should not only pray to God but also learn all the more to praise God. We need to see the significance of praise at the very beginning of our #Christian walk. We must praise God unceasingly. ..
David received #Grace from God to praise seven times a day. It is a good exercise, a very good lesson, and a very good spiritual practice to praise God every day. We(#Christians) should learn to praise God when we get up early in the morning. ..
We should learn to praise Him when we encounter problems, when we are at a meeting, or when we are alone. We should praise God at least seven times a day. Do not let David beat us(#Christians) in his praise. ..

#wednesdaythought Hopelessly Lost

Philosophically man has lost his way. Could he think himself out of his age-old predicament he would long ago have done it, for the world has had more than enough serious-minded men of superior intellectual endowments to ..
examine every rabbit path in all the meadows of human thought and to explore every forest and wilderness in search of the way. Since the first fallen man got still long enough to think, fallen men have been asking these questions, Whence came I? What am I? Why am I here? and ..
Where am I going? The noblest minds of the race have struggled with these questions to no avail. Did the answer lie somewhere hidden like a jewel it would surely have been uncovered, for the most penetrating minds of the race have searched for it. ..
