Heart Donors Wanted

Have you ever considered making a heart donation? It does not take that long to get signed up, because there are no forms to fill out.

This is how it's done. If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9). That's all there is to it.

If you follow that simple procedure, your heart will be donated to God before you know it. Because it is so easy to do, why not do it right now? Tomorrow my be to late.

Doing God's Work

As Christians, we are told to "Be steadfast always abounding in the work of the Lord" (I Cor. 15:58).

So, what is the work that the Lord requires us to do? First of all, His will is plainly stated in II Peter 3:9 which says, God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to know His Son as their personal saviour.

Then if we are going to do God's work, it will be the respondsibility of each Christian to encourage the non-Christian to accept Christ as their personal saviour.

How's Your Faith?

In the gospel of Mark it says, "Have faith in God". Is your faith in God as strong as it should be? Robert Schuller, senior pastor of the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove CA says, "faith is a steady, stable and steadfast process of opening your conscious and subconscious mind through prayer".

So, what does all that mean? It means that faith is a gradual process and prayer will strengthen it during that process. Right now your faith may be weak and if it is, just concentrate on your prayer life and watch how your faith gets stronger.

Helmet of Salvation

So often when we enter into our daily time of prayer, we find it difficult to keep focused, because our mind has been distracted.

In order to avoid this distraction, which is one of the devil's tricks, it is necessary for us to ask God to provide us with a hedge-of-protection.

In the sixth chapter of Ephesians, Paul reminds us that we are wrestling with the "rulers of darkness". and we are to put on the full armor of God at all times.

When the devil tries to trick us, it's at that time we need God's help - we all do. So, as we enter into prayer, let's pray for the Helmet-of-salvation to be in place, so it will protect our mind from the enemy.

How Bright is the Light

In Psalm 139, the psalmist tries to explain the brilliancy of God in the twelfth verse by saying, "The darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to You" (NIV).

In John 8:12, we read that when Jesus was on this earth and speaking to the people, He said, "I am the light of the world, he who follows me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life". Just how is this possible?

James explains it, when he refers to God as the Father Of Lights with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow (James 1:17). Literally or figuratively, there is no brighter light than our God.
