God's Words of Wisdom from the Bible for Tuesday 19 July 2011

"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on 19 July 2011"

Today's Bible Verse: Acts: 16:29-31 "Then he called for a light, ran in and fall down trembling before Paul and Silas.  And He brought them out and said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"  So they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved, you and your household."

Paul and Silas were in prison and a great earthquake shook the foundations of the prison so that is opened the doors to their cells.  The jail keeper was terrified because according to Roman Law a guard who allowed a prisoner to escape was put to death.

Paul being a Roman citizen and realizing this Roman custom assured the jailer that they were still there.  The compassion that Paul and Silas showed to the jailer brought him to his knees and he asked them, "What must I do to be saved?"  This question by the jailer would indicate that he had some knowledge of Paul's Sermons.

Paul's response to this question, remains to this day one of the simplest and clearest answers to this vital question that can be found, "BELIEVE in the NAME of the LORD JESUS CHRIST and YOU will be SAVED."  "Wow"  No other work is ever  needed to be saved.  How easy it is to receive the free gift of Salvation, but how hard it is for our sinful nature to let go, in order to have that NEW LIVE in CHRIST".

Today's Hymn: "Trust and Obey"

Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies, but His smile quickly drives away
Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear, can abide while we trust and obey
Trust and obey, for there's no other way, to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey

Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, how simple you have made it for us to receive Eternal Life.  It is not of our works Abba Father, but it is because of our believing, and trusting in the name of Jesus Christ, Your only begotten Son, that saves us from our sins, and cleanses us from all unrighteousness.  Thank you for that promise that stands even today.
                                                                                                                                 Amen

Today's Biblical Truth: "Be faithful, and even disasters will turn out for the Glory of God"

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day.  Go in Peace and Serve the Lord our God with Gladness.  Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T", God Whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".

"Here I am Lord, Send me"
