I just wanted to remind us of what William Booth, the founder of Salvation Army, said
“The greatness of a man’s power is the measure of his surrender.”
Lord open the eyes of our hearts to see the beauty of submitting our lives unto You.

Jesus is stronger Vs Sin is broken
Let us always remember that God is watching. Jesus is still on His Throne – Walk with Him. Whenever we are standing in our strength we fail. But when we stand on Jesus the solid rock-He is able. He is stronger. Sin is broken.
Memory verse:
Hebrews 12:29 (NIV)
For our “God is a consuming fire.”
Thought:
Hebrews: 12 1-4
God Disciplines His Sons
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.
Commitment
Commitment
Words: And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
1Cor 13:13.
For God’s gifts and his call are irrevocable. Rom 11:29
Thought: If we need more of God’s love and power, we must be willing to carry out the responsibilities He gives us.
Prayer For The Day:
I look at my dedication to you, Jesus,
my Lord and Savior, and am ashamed – you gave
everything for me. May i always live totally committed in love to you.
(Adapted from Day by Day with Billy Graham)
Great Commission
Word:
When He (Jesus) was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them. Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight. They asked each other “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?” Luke 24: 30-32
Thought:
The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 2 Cor 4:4
Prayer:
Dear God open our eyes to see the mission fields that are ready for harvest. Help us see with a moving compassion the multitudes of people without someone to show them the way. In Jesus name. Amen.
Living witness
Memory verse
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Romans 12 : 21
Thought
“prepare to meet your God, O Israel” Amos 4:12b
Eternal satisfaction in Christ
Eternal satisfaction in Christ
As we have learned “Finding eternal satisfaction in Christ” – Let us apply in our day today life.
Memory Verse:
Everyone who drinks this water will get thirsty again and again. Anyone who drinks the water I (Jesus Christ) give will never thirst – not ever. The water I give will be an artisan spring within, gushing fountains of endless life. If any one thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Rivers of living water will brim and spill out of the depths of anyone who believes in me this way, just as the scripture says ‘ You’ll be like a well watered garden, a gurgling spring that never runs dry.
John 4: 13-14, John 7: 38-39; Isaiah 58:11

Hebrews 12:1-3 (New International Version)
Heaven on Earth
Remember God always
Word:
Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” Exodus 14:13-31
Thought:
We will have days of Heaven on Earth when we remember God always and in all things.
Thirsty???
Word:
Jesus answered, “All who drink this water will be thirsty again. But anyone who drinks the water I give him will never be thirsty. In fact, the water I give him will become a spring of water in him. It will flow up into eternal life.” John 4: 13 and 14
The Lord says, “I sent a great army of locusts to attack you. They included common locusts, giant locusts, young locusts and other locusts. I will make up for the years they ate your crops. You will have plenty to eat. It will satisfy you completely. Then you will praise me. I am the Lord your God. I have done wonderful miracles for you. My people will never be put to shame again. You will know that I am with you in Israel. I am the Lord your God. There is no other God. So my people will never be put to shame again. Joel 2: 25-27.
Thought:
Are we looking up to Jesus to satisfy us or are we running vainly behind the worldly things?
Christ centered Christmas
Word:
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. “Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap. Luke 21: 33-34
Thought: Are we caught up with materialism? Who/what is ruling our hearts?
If we replace Christ with anything else that becomes idol worship.
Our role model is Christ and He lived a humble and holy life. Do we have humbleness in our hearts?
Today is the day of Salvation. Turn to Jesus and He will change our hearts.
