The lost are in need of spiritual surgery. They need to meet the Great Physician and allow Him to restore them to spiritual health and vitality.

From Matthew 9:11-12: “When the Pharisees saw this, they said to His disciples, ‘Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?’ But when he heard this, he said, ‘Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.'”

I know I can’t do a thing to earn my salvation; but now that I am His, I will do everything in my power to show Him how much I love Him–and I live to please the One I love who has transformed me with His love.

From Ephesians 4:21-24: “For surely you have heard about Him and were taught in Him, as truth is in Jesus, to put away your former way of life, your old self, corrupt and deluded by its lusts, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to clothe yourselves with the new self, created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.”

From Psalm 90:1-2: “Lord, You have been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth or ever You had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God.”

With each passing day
Our Father’s blessed Word
Offering faith’s dwelling place
Mankind’s righteousness shall be stirred

From distant mountains
Echoes of prophets past
Everlasting in faith’s heart
Yesterday’s breath arrives at last

Shards of light descend
Morning’s grace at sunrise
Enlisting heavenly peace
Attention to Calvary’s prize

Life in risen Christ
Darkness forever fades
Forgiving man’s trespasses
His mercy ready to cascade

Eternity breathes
Filled with His steadfast love
Witnessing Christ’s victory
Father’s glory fulfilled above

Prayer is not only asking, but an attitude of mind which produces the atmosphere in which asking is perfectly natural.

From Matthew 7:11: “If you, then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!”

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.
