Devotions - 26th of the month

Go to home page

Almighty God; You are our Creator and our Redeemer, and Your care for us extends far beyond our understanding or our reach.  Give us the humility to accept that ultimately, we do not know all things, and that we may explore but never compete with Your supreme creative and saving power.  May we honour You as the One from whom everything comes, and live as if we truly believe it. AMEN

It is a great day when the Spirit of God

Moves in the heart of a man or a woman,

Everything changes, for the Spirit comes:

Eyes are opened, bodies and souls are healed,

The spirit comes alive and the heart is motivated

Colours are fresh, the sky brighter, and the world good.,

The Bible comes alive with meaning and purpose and love,

The face of one who knows the Saviour shows radiance and joy,

And prayer becomes as natural as breathing in the clear fresh air,

All who hear His voice are filled with potential, just waiting to be tapped,

And the world is full of opportunity, through the Lord and God who made it.

To those who do not know it ... know this is your right!

To those who know, but don’t remember it ... what has happened?

To those who want to know it ... just ask the Lord of all!

To those who glory in it ... pray for those who need to know!
