Bible Reading May 9, 2012

1 Sam 5:1-7:17, John 6:1-21, Ps 106:13-31, Pr 14:32-33
I pray that this day all my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ will stand in the gap in agreement with me for those that are flagrantly living a life of sin.  We all have someone that we love dearly that needs to find their way to repentance.  2 cor 7: ^9" yet now I am happy, not because you were made sorry, but because your sorrow led you to repentance. For you became sorrowful as God intended and so were not harmed in any way by us. ¹⁰ Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death." Lord please guard our mouths and actions this day that we not thwart your plans by heaping worldly sorrow on those that need to hear from God.  If this word has inspired you please go to my blog and read of my inspiration in the word of God.

Bible Reading May 8, 2012

1 Sam 2:22-4:22, John 5:24-47, Ps 106:1-12, Pr 14:30-31
Today's reading spoke to me about hearing from God for ourselves.  The importance of knowing God intimately.  It also spoke to me of the grace of Christ that frees us from the fear of an eternal life separated from God due to sin. Most importantly it convicted me that we need to be in the lives of fellow believers so that we can help them discern when God is speaking to them.

Judges 19:1-20:40, John 3:22-4:4, Ps 104:24-35, Pr 14:22-24
Wow.  Hard word to read.  It will fill you with anger and sadness.  The unthinkable of being handed over by one that should have protected. Yet John speaks of life and Christ versus God's wrath being on those that are unsaved.  http://oyb2012.blogspot.com/

Bible Reading May 3, 2012

Judges 07:1-18:31, John 3:1-21, Ps 104:1-23, Pr 14:20-21
Today's word spoke to me about how we believe and are saved.  It also had me considering that to be free from the curse of death we should be living as one no longer condemned to that death.  Yet my own thoughts often condemn me.  So for all those that are like me in this I pray that this day you take yourself off the cross and remember that Christ already died for you.  The price of your sin is paid.  Yes for your poor choices of today and tomorrow till the day of his coming.

Bible Reading May 2, 2012

Today's devotional is posted I just forgot to let you all know. I have many questions before the Lord as to how we are to apply the story of Samson. He was far from a pillar of integrity and sacrificial love. Yet WOW was he given power. It appeared God used is sinful nature to put in in just the spot he needed him for battle. hmmm. What to make of it all. Yet I must ponder not and let God bring me peace and clarity that my mind can not findChristy Klepetko http://oyb2012.blogspot.com/

May the Lord bless you and keep you this day as you allow his word to hem you in and expand your territory. Great story of the birth of Samson in Judges and the beginning of Jesus picking his disciples in John.
