The Father’s Rescue: Attentive To His Voice

Dec 21, 2020 | Posted by Margo Fieseler | Uncategorized |

“Even if it was written in Scripture long ago, you can be sure it’s written for us. God wants the combination of his steady, constant calling and warm, personal counsel in Scripture to come to characterize us, keeping us alert for whatever he will do next.
   May our dependably steady and warmly personal God develop maturity in you so that you get along with each other as well as Jesus gets along with us all. Then we’ll be a choir—not our voices only, but our very lives singing in harmony in a stunning anthem to the God and Father of our Master Jesus!”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭15: 4-6‬ ‭MSG‬‬

Do you know God’s Word? Do you think it’s written for you today or do you think it’s a relic?
God, boldly and in His loving kindness, asks you to try it out for yourself. It’s written for then; for each generation; and for now. So dig in. Let His Words speak into the very depths of your heart, soul, mind and strength.

Remember, the Bible is the only book as you read it…it reads you! The LIVING Word of God. No other book has His power and authority, plus His love, mercy and grace draped all over it. We can’t help but respond to His voice. Oh, but how we respond will matter forever.

It matters right now as His warm, personal counsel begins to characterize what we think, do and say. We become attentive to His voice, keeping us alert for whatever He will do next.

It matters later, as His maturity develops in us, so we can see others through the compassionate eyes of Jesus, drawing them to Christ through our words and deeds. Because our words have become His words. Our deeds, His deeds. Our thoughts. His thoughts.

And…it matters when all is said and done. You have run the race; kept the faith; and finished well. How? By pursuing His Word, which has transformed you, through the years, into the likeness of His Son.

Yep. The B I B L E! Yes that’s the book for me. I stand alone on the Word of God. The
B I B L E! (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth). Read on…and respond!

The Father’s Joy: Real Refreshment!

Mar 18, 2015

"In your great love revive me so I can alertly obey your every word. What you say goes, God, and stays, as permanent as the heavens. Your truth never goes out of fashion; it’s as up-to-date as the earth when the sun comes up. Your Word and truth are dependable as ever; that’s what you ordered—you set the earth going." Psalm 119:90-93 MSG How do you get revived? Rejuvenated? Refreshed? Does a well-timed nap do it? A day at the spa? Taking a walk? Talking to a friend? Praying? The Psalmist, David, knew that God"s great love...His unconditional love...would revive him. And where did he run to personally experience that love? God's Great Love Story...aka God's Word...the Bible. He had the settled joy, the settled hope that what God says, goes. No debate. No doubt. Just trusting in God's unfailing, "permanent-as-the- heavens" Word. That's WHY he could be revived. He didn't wish that what God said was true. He KNEW! He was declaring that his personal YHWH God, and His spoken Word, IS truth and "dependable as ever." David knew where to run to be revived. He knew WHO would revive him. Before David needed to be refreshed, He knew The Refresher. That's important. If you don't know who to run to BEFORE you need Him, you will end up stewing in your circumstances or running aimlessly after all the wrong things and wrong people. And here's the clincher! What was David's purpose in being revived? "So I can alertly obey your every word!" He ran to God's Word to be revived so he could know His every Word. Why? To obey! To do the next right thing! What? Yup, there's the answer to being revived.. Know God. Know His Word. Be revived. Obey His Word to... Know God. Know His Word Be revived. Obey His Word to... What real refreshment...God-style! And the deeper you go with Him, the deeper your personal revival! His Word will never fail you, only rejuvenate!

FROM THE COMMUNUTY

Yesterday my mom fell again walking outdoors at her apartment…She is okay & was released from hospital after a few hours. On the drive to West Bend after we got the call…I found complete peace just loving my God & knowing He was in control of the situation no matter what it was. And then reading your devotion today made my heart cry out with a love for Him that can’t be put into words.
Thank you & thank you & thank you for listening & obeying the Lord.
