Worthy Brief - March 31, 2023

Worthy Brief - March 31, 2023 Choose this day whom you shall serve? Exodus 12:2-3 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house: This coming Sunday will mark the beginning of Pesach (Passover) Season on the Hebrew calendar. On Sunday morning, it will be the 10th of Nisan the very same day that Yeshua (Jesus) would have entered Jerusalem 2000 years ago. Every 10th of Nisan, four days before Pesach, the children of Israel would choose a lamb for the Passover sacrifice. Each man would take a lamb for his household. Four days were required to inspect the animal to make sure it was perfect and without blemish. Can you imagine having a lamb at home for four days -- the children feeding it, petting it, perhaps even naming it -- only to know that it woul

This Day's Verse 31st March 2023

This Day's Verse 31st March 2023 For to the one who pleases him God has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, but to the sinner he has given the business of gathering and collecting, only to give to one who pleases God.

Today's Daily Encounter Friday, March 31, 2023

Today's Daily Encounter Friday, March 31, 2023 I Lift My Eyes to You "I lift my eyes to you, O God, enthroned in heaven. We keep looking to the Lord our God for his mercy, just as servants keep their eyes on their master, as a slave girl watches her mistress for the slightest signal. Have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy, for we have had our fill of contempt. We have had more than our fill of the scoffing of the proud and the contempt of the arrogant."1 Today's Psalm only has four verses, but it is such a powerful reminder of the relationship between God and the believer. God sent Jesus to dwell among us and build close relationships with us, but he did so because we were in great need of a Savior. Jesus came to pay the price that none of us could pay ourselves. God did this because of His great love and mercy. Therefore, while Jesus, God the Son, desires us to live in constant friendship with him, today's scripture reminds us that we are God's servants, and whet

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 31st March 2023

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 31st March 2023 March 31 Matthew 26:27-29 27Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. 28This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. 29I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it anew with you in my Father's kingdom." At the Last Supper Jesus did something out of the norm for the traditional Seder of the day. The traditional meal had four cups of wine. Each has a name and spiritual significance. The cup that Jesus was presenting in our text above was the third, the Cup of Redemption. In the past it reminded the people of the blood of the lambs that marked the doorposts in Egypt. The destroying angel saw the blood marked doors and passed over them. Instead of the regular phrases that were repeated here, He told them the cup was about His blood! Some manuscripts include the word 'new'

A Bible Devotional 31st March 2023

A Bible Devotional 31st March 2023 Look At The Stars PSALM 147:4-5 NIV 4 He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. 5 Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit. Sometimes I wonder how God can be mindful of me when there are so many other people for Him to be concerned about. How can He keep up? Then I am reminded of the scriptures that tell us that God has named all the stars. We don't even know how many stars there are -- scientists say billions and billions -- but God can call them all by name! God is definitely in a different category than anyone else I know. He is mighty. Compared to us, He has no limit to His understanding or His ability. ISAIAH 40:26 NIV 26 Lift your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one, and calls them each by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing. PSALM 8:3-4 NIV 3 When I consider your heavens, the work o

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 30th March 2023

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 30th March 2023 March 30 Matthew 26:7, 12-13 7a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, which she poured on his head as he was reclining at the table. 12When she poured this perfume on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial. 13I tell you the truth, wherever this gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her." This is extravagant worship! The woman was so blessed by the words of Christ that she took something as valuable as a year's wages and poured it out on Jesus' head (Mark 14:5). Whether she consciously knew that Jesus was about to be crucified for her sins or not, we cannot tell, but Jesus said she did it to prepare Him for burial. She was moved to make this costly action and did not allow her mind to keep her from it. How many times are we moved to do something that seems excessive, but we allow our reasoning to justify not following through? The carnal mi

Daily Christian Quote 30th March 2023 Horatius Bonar March 30, 2023 Have I then no work to work in this great matter of my pardon? None. What work canst thou work? What work of thine can buy forgiveness or make thee fit for the Divine favour? What work has God bidden thee work in order to obtain salvation? None. His Word is very plain and easy to be understood, "To him that worketh not, but believeth in Him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness" (Rom. 4:5). There is but one work by which a man can be saved. That work is not thine, but the work of the Son of God. That work is finished. https://dailychristianquote.com

Worthy Brief - March 29, 2023

Worthy Brief - March 29, 2023 Sharpen your ax! Ecclesiastes 10:10 If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success. When I was younger I used to take an ax and cut up firewood from the woods behind our house. The one thing I always did was sharpen my ax! A dull ax meant harder work chopping through fallen trees. The sharper the ax, the less effort, and energy required for the task. So I learned early on to sharpen my ax before venturing into the woods, and I saved myself a lot of time and energy. (Besides, I was a small kid, growing up, so I needed all the help I could get! ;) ) I see a lesson here. How many of us are exerting so much energy for the Kingdom, but are working with dull axes? We need to sharpen our spiritual lives, get focused in prayer, and spend deep time in the Word. Then, when we are "out in the woods", working for the Kingdom our effectiveness will be greatly multiplied because our axes are shar

Today's Daily Encounter Wednesday, March 29, 2023

Today's Daily Encounter Wednesday, March 29, 2023 The One Who Knows Our Story "Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me and lead me in the way everlasting."1 Many of us have that friend who we can share anything with, and they love us just as we are. These friends may be few and far between, but when they come into our lives, we can't help but live in gratitude for this great gift. My husband is one of these friends for me. I thank God for him every day, and never take for granted the fact that I have a "live in" friend! He knows my habits, quirks, my good days, and my bad days, and chooses to love everything about me, even when I don't love them myself. Although he and I know each other so well after many years of marriage, there is no way we can know every detail about each other's past, present, and future. There is only One who knows us so intimately. God knows every part of

Wayside Chapel  Daily Devotional 29th March 2023 March 29 Matthew 25:38-40 38When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' 40"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.' At the final judgment every man will appear before the King to give an account of the things done during his life. The Son of Man will divide them into just two groups. He doesn't ask them about theology. There are no quizzes. The deciding factor is how they lived. Did they meet the needs of their fellow man? Or did they ignore the pain and suffering around them? One might argue that the only way a person is willing to give of himself out of unselfish motives is that the Spirit of Christ indwells him or her. Indeed, these who did meet the needs of others seem to be unaware that they did so. They did not boast about all

A Bible Devotional 29th March 2023

A Bible Devotional 29th March 2023 What Is God Like? NAHUM 1:7 NIV 7 The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him, Much could be said about God. But the first thing we need to realize is that God is good. He is not a bad guy. He is not against you. He is not your problem, but rather He is the answer to your problems. Although the world doesn't know what God is like, they desperately need to know Him. Even sadder is the fact that most Christians do not really know what God is like, either. If you want to know what God is like -- look at Jesus Christ. He perfectly revealed God to us. JOHN 1:18 TEV 18 No one has ever seen God. The only Son, who is the same as God and is at the Father's side, he has made him known. COLOSSIANS 2:9 PHILLIPS 9 Yet it is in him that God gives a full and complete expression of himself in bodily form. Would you be content to just read what someone else says marriage is like? Why be content to just listen to what oth

Worthy Brief - March 28, 2023

 Worthy Brief - March 28, 2023 Times of refreshing are near! 1 Kings 19:4-5 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers. And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat. In this passage, Elijah had become so weary running from Jezebel that he sat under a Juniper tree and just asked the Lord to take his life. But the Lord knew exactly what Elijah needed and He sent forth a messenger to revive and nourish him. I love it. In His infinite mercy, God sent an angel to minister to Elijah. And that was just enough to help him get up and continue to do great things for the Lord. We've all been under that tree, haven't we? Some of us are there right now. Perhaps you know a saint who is growing weary and in need of refreshment

Today's Daily Encounter Tuesday, March 28, 2023

Today's Daily Encounter Tuesday, March 28, 2023 Look to the Hills I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.1 Whenever I read the opening verse of Psalm 121, I always imagine the opening scene of the musical classic "The Sound of Music", where a young girl is up on the hills singing freely. This is her 'happy place' where she can be without a care. In the next few scenes, her life takes an unexpected turn, and she finds herself on her way to a new adventure. Feeling unsure of what awaits her, she sings to muster up her courage and while on the bus, in the window's reflection we see the hills again. This is a subtle but clear picture that by looking to those hills she would find her source of strength. As Christians, we too, can look to the hills and contemplate where our strength comes from; we can know, without a doubt, that our help comes from the Lord, the Creator of those very hills
