God can do anything! [+] Monday E-Devotion

Matthew 19:26
NLT

Jesus looked at them intently and said, "Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible."


Do you really believe that God can do anything?  Prove it.  Think through what you have seen him do and what you have experienced.  Now, spend a few minutes thinking about what others have told you God did in their lives.  

We have the proof.  God is able.  Our minds cannot hold him back.  People cannot put God in a box.  He can heal the worst diseases.  He can fixed the biggest, baddest broken situation.  Our God can do anything, and it is time for us to believe God and let Him work in and through our lives.

Here is one of The Community Core statements ... we are to get the attention of our community and while we have their attention, tell them about Jesus


You can get people's attention in many ways.  But what do you do when you have their attention?  Why not do the greatest good?  Tell them about the one who will make the biggest difference for eternity?  Here is what Jesus said about it:

John 12:32
NLT

And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.


Jesus is the one that changes lives.  It is not our job to change lives.  Pointing people to Him and opening the lines of communication is our job.  What has God done in your life that you need to tell others about?  Maybe your testimony is a bit like mine.  I love this verse ...

Luke 1:74
NLT

We have been rescued from our enemies so we can serve God without fear,


God rescued me.  How about you?  We can serve Him without fear, and we must realize that God can do anything!

Yes, God can surely do anything. But of course we always need to remember that whether He will is another question. Sadly, we do tend to sell God short, and expect too much of our selves apart from God. Good word!

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look

Day 8 in Cuba

We have just come off and incredible weekend, and it is day 8 of the mission trip in Cuba.  Thank you to all who have been praying for this trip, the mission team and the impact it will have on those we serve.   Please don’t stop praying. Last week Alex and I served with a mission team in the mountains of southern Cuba.  There were several challenges, but God gave us safety, provision and opportunity to serve some of the sweetest people I have ever met.  No running water… sporadic electricity generated by a small, logo dammed up river, no transportation other than animals, limited food sources and more.  These people love the Lord and sharing their faith with others. Over the weekend we made our way back to Havana.  On Friday our vehicle broke down leaving us on the side of the road for several hours.  We then boarded a bus and rode 14 hours.  We arrived safely and even got some rest. Sunday was so, so good.  We visited two partner churches.  In the morning we were with one church that
