                                                       Psalm  11:5
                                      "The Lord trieth the righteous"

         The trials sent from God or which come from God are sent to prove and strengthen our graces,  and to show the power of divine grace.   As our righteous, is tried, it will cause us to grow closer to God.
         This New Year's Day brings fourth the hardest trial of my life, as well as my familes lives.   On Jan 1 2013  we say our final good bye's to my wife;  Robin Elaine Lail.
On 29 Dec 2012, she went home to be with Jesus. We will all miss her dearly; she was loved by those that knew her, and a true friend to others she whould meet.  " Robin My Love I Will Be So Lonely Without You And I'll Miss My Rock That Our Family Was Built On."

                                                        Psalm 92:4
                         "Thou, Lord hast made me glad through Thy work."

         If you are saved you should be glad, be grateful and loving.  Cling to the cross that took your sins away, serve the Lord, because he has served you.  Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, that is our reasonable service.
        Don't let some little thing take your zeal away.  Show your love in an expressive token, not like you displayed, or gave up when you were saved.  If you are a poor tired believer get up and bear you cross for the sake of He who carries you sins.

                                           Song of Solomon  1:4
                                         "The Upright Love Thee"

          Our love for Jesus is a deeper affection than we dare to give to other human beings.    Believers can and will part with every being, except Christ.  We can not love enough, even with all our hearts mask together to even get close to the amount of love Christ had for us on the cross, and the the amount of love Christ has for us now and always.

                                                         Jeremiah 51:51
                    "Strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the Lords house"

     May we all have grace to maintain in our own proper way the purity of the church, as being an assembly of believers, and not a nation of unsaved community of unconverted men.
                                Search me, O Lord, and know my way

                                                        Psalm 27:14
                                                   "Wait on the Lord"

        There are hours of waiting for the most willing spirit, that anxiously desires to serve the Lord.   It knows what part to take;  than what shall it do while waiting?   Get caught up in despair?   Fly back in cowardice; turn to the right hand in fear or rush foward in presumption?  No,  but simply wait.   Use prayer and call upon God, and put the case before him;  tell him your difficulty.   Just wait in faith.   Express your unstaggering confidence in him;  for unfaithful and untrusting waiting, is an insult to the Lord.

                                                                     John 4:48
                                 " Except ye see signs and wonders,  ye will not believe"

Do we need sigs and wonders,  I say no!   Is not the gospel it's own sign and wonder,  was it not enough that God gave his only begotten Son,  and who ever will belive in him might not perish.   But the precious words  "whosoever will",  let him come and take the water of life freely,   and that solemn promise,  Him that cometh unto me,   I will in no wise cast out.   Now that I say is better than signs and wonders.

                     The Birth Of Christ;  "The True Christmas Story"

And "she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger;  because there was no pace in the inn.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over
their flock by night.
And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them:"and they were sore afraid."
And the angel said unto them,  Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

                              "Watchman,  What Of The Night"

1.  Watch for our enemies;  "Our Sin".
2.  Watch for the attacks of satan upon us.
3.  Watch for attacks upon the church, lets keep the world out.
4.  Watch for our precious promises that will suit our present case.
5.  Watch for the return of our Lord and Master;  Christ Jesus.

    "the city hath no need of the sun, neither of the moon to shine in it"

What a glorious day when God and the Lord Jesus shall be our daily joy.   We will need nothing else, or no help from others, for our Souls shall have attained the perfection of bliss.

                                         1 Thessalonians 2:18
                                          "Santan hindered us"

From the first hour in which goodness came into conflict with evil, it has never ceased to be true in spiritual experience, that Satan hindered us.   Satan will direct his angles against that very virtue for which you famous.   Look at it this way;  We are not alarmed because Satan hinders us.   For it is a proof that we are on the Lord's side.

Devotional

                                        Daniel 11:32
         "The people that do know their God shall be strong"

We must understand the good which is to come out of the correction which our heavenly Father sends us.   Do we know our God, really know him.   I don't mean heard or read a
little about him.   I mean feel God around you, talk to God.   We say we love God more than anything.  To know God is to love God, the real question is;  do you know God a lot or a little, because how much you know him, is how much you love him.
                                  "SO  IS  IT  A  LOT  OR  A  LITTLE"

Devotional

                                         Luke 8:42
                                   "But as he went"

As Jesus goes about;  His virtue love and blessing are shining as the sun around him.   His sweet smell of flowers that emanat from him, is as water from a fountain.
We must make our resort where Christ is found. "In our Hearts, that we may obtain his blessing".   Christ is always present, for he always comes to the hearts that call upon him.  And do we not need him at all times in our life, and we should strive to be Christ like.

Devotional

                                            Psalm 52:8
                                     "The mercy of God"

              Mercy is "infinite" you can not measure it.
              He forgives great sin, to great sinners.

                                                                 Isaiah 59:5
                                                "They weave the spiders web"

The spider web is the most suggestive picture of the hypocrite's religion.   A foolish person is easily caught like a fly in a spiders web, by the loud professions of pretenders.   In the Lords house there will be no spider web's, for he will see to it that those who spin them shall be destroyed for ever.

                                                      Ephesians 1:11
                   " Who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will"

God alone knows the point at which a person receives Christ for salvation,   It is also evident that the beliver is fulfilling God's purpose for his life, resulting in him becoming one of God's elect.

                                                               Psalm 65:11
                                 " Thou crownest the year with thy goodness"

Have you ever stoped and thought about the earth and what is upon it;  and that it all works together.
  1.  The Sun that brittens each day.
  2.  The night that brings the coolness and the moon that gives the night light.
  3.  The four season's of the year, for each season there is something special.
  4.  All this God has made for his people, however we take each year for granted. Let us thank God for each and every day of this year 2012.   For God makes it special for us, with his blessing and his grace.

                                               John 17: 23
                                                "I in them"

These three words Christ spoke ensure us, that he is always near and waiting for us, to be friend, to guide us and to help us when were in need.   He is there to ensure were not left alone.   But the most inportant thing is; He is calling for that lost, to bring them into their inherantance.
                                    "Thank you Jesus for
                                      forgiven me; and for
                                      Always being were
                                      I can reach you

                                                      Mark 14:72
                              And when he thought thereon;  he wept"

When Peter denied Christ;  just as Christ had said, Peter remembered and he wept!   Peter was afraied of what might happen to him, if he would have said;  I know Christ Jesus, and I served him as he went about healing, preaching and making the blind to see.

But I belive deep in his heart, Peter could feel Christ mercy upon him, as he remembered the look of love on the face of Jesus as he told Peter what he would do.

When we make vows to Christ and say;  I Will follow you, and never hurt your heart.   When the time comes and it will, yes there will be a time that we'll do or say something or maybe, fall into sin again.   Will you think about what Christ did for you, and the look of pain on his face when Christ placed our sin's on his  cross.

Devotional

                                     John 6:37

 "Him that cometh to me, I will in no wise cast you out"

Once we are cleansed by Christ Jesu, we become believers; this don't mean that sin will stay away from us.  Christ gives us away to deal with temptation and sin.  Christ tells us that we will not be tempted above what we can handle.  But with the temptation he also makes a way to escape.  Just as David did, we may fall into sin, but Christ will purge us and we shall be cleansed.  He said; from all their iniquities will I cleanse them.  The past, the present and the future sins, will be cleansed.

          Once in Christ, In Christ forever

                                                                  Romans 8:33
                                     Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect.

Christ has taken any and all charge of sin away.  There is no sin that is too mighty, or no sin too strongly entrenched.  We can overcome through the power of Christ.  Sin may kick and struggle; but it is doomed to die.  Sin was crucified when Christ nailed it to his cross.

                                                "Here's pardon for transgressions past,"
                                                " It matters not how black their cast"
                                                " And , O my Soul, with wonder views"

                                       "Exceeding great and precious promises"

We should meditate upon God's promises, and receive them as being the very words of God.   God's words is as true as his own existence.  He is a God "Unchangeable".  He has not altered the thing which has gone out of his mouth, nor called back one single consolatory sentence.  God still has the power over all things.

    Ezekiel  36:26 

" and I will give you an heart of flesh"

A heart of flesh will give you a desire to tarry away even for a moment.

The heart of stone calls a great iniquity nothing.

It's hard to subject a heart of flesh to God's will

The hard heart don't love the Redeemer; but the renewed heart burns
with affection toward him.

  "even thou wast as one of them"
If  someone, or a group of your friends are making fun of or putting down someone else,
Because of there looks, clothes, the actions or their Christian beliefs, "even thou was as
One of them".  If you were there and did not stop the joking and the put downs,  and just
Being there;  "were you not as wrong as they were"?
