A man’s obedience is to what he sees to be a need; our Lord’s obedience was to the will of His Father.

From Hebrews 10:9-10:  “Then He added, ‘See, I have come to do Your will.’  He abolishes the first in order to establish the second. And it is by God’s will that we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.”

Oswald Chambers (1874-1917) was a Scottish evangelist and Christian teacher.  Following his death from an illness while in Egypt during World War I, his wife took on the task of transcribing the detailed notes she had written from his lectures and sermons.  Gertrude Hobbs Chambers’ efforts resulted in the publication in 1924 of MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST.  I frequently read from this devotional, and it has greatly deepened my faith and understanding of God’s Word.

We act like pagans in a crisis, only one out of a crowd is daring enough to bank his faith in the character of God.

From Luke 9:61-62:  “Another said, ‘I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home.’  And Jesus said to him, ‘No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.'”

God does not keep a man immune from trouble; He says–“I will be with him in trouble.”

From Romans 8:35:  “Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will affliction or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or peril or sword?

From the words of Scottish evangelist and Christian teacher, Oswald Chambers:  “If we think of prayer as the breath in our lungs and the blood from our hearts, we think rightly.”

Thinking as Jesus taught

Prayer’s breath offers peace

Blood enriched in one’s heart

Light fills faith’s every piece

 

Spurring each other on

Prayer links faith as one

Devotion encouraged

God sends His blessed Son

 

Believing Father’s Word

Prayer becomes hope’s voice

Each hour, without ceasing

Shepherd’s flock shall rejoice

 

Praising Christ for His light

Prayer leads to support

Faithful mercy arrives

Answers sail to each port

 

Walking always in faith

Prayer fills lungs with joy

Conscious of Savior’s grace

Holy Spirit deploys

From 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18:  “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”

Jesus is saying that the great care of the life is to put the relationship to God first, and everything else second.

From Matthew 6:33:  “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Jesus prayed nothing less for us than absolute oneness with Himself as He was one with the Father.

From John 17:20-21:  “I ask not only on behalf of these but also on behalf of those who believe in Me through their word, that they may all be one.  As You, Father, are in Me and I am in You, may they also be in Us, so that the world may believe that You have sent Me.”

There is a difference between an ideal and a vision.  An ideal has no moral inspirations; a vision has.

From Proverbs 29:18:  “Where there is no prophecy, the people cast off restraint, but happy are those who keep the law.”

The vision of God is the source of patience, because it imparts a moral inspiration.

From Habakkuk 2:3:  “For there is still a vision for the appointed time; it speaks of the end and does not lie.  If it seems to tarry, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay.”

If you want to be of use to God, get rightly related to Jesus Christ and He will make you of use unconsciously every minute you live.

From Mathew 6:33-34:  “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.  So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own.  Today’s trouble is enough for today.”

Keep your soul fit to manifest the life of the Son of God.  Never live on memories; let the Word of God be always living and active in you.

From 2 Corinthians 4:11:  “For we who are living are always being handed over to death for Jesus’s sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible in our mortal flesh.”
