The Key

"If you ask anything in My name, I will do it."

John 14:14

Today's Bible Reading: John 14: 12-14.

I have a key that unlocks the door of my car. I may say, “I’m going to unlock the door,” but, really, it wouldn’t be me unlocking it. The key unlocks the door! I am simply using the key!

I may put the key into the ignition and say, “I’m going to start the car.” But the key starts the car. I simply insert the key and turn it. Generally speaking, all the power in a car’s engine and everything in that car hinges on that key.

There is also a key in the spiritual realm, and without that key, we would get nowhere in life. That key unlocks the windows, doors, and storehouses of Heaven. It unlocks power from on High. This “key” is the Name of Jesus! Jesus is the Saviour, Redeemer, Mediator, Intercessor, Advocate, High Priest, and Lord Who stands between us and the Father. And He has given us His Name!

The Bible has much to say concerning the Name of Jesus as the key. The Lord Jesus Christ, by His death, burial, and resurrection, Has obtained the key to our spiri­tual authority. Then He gave us the key. He gave us the authority to do His works in His Name.

Prayer: Almighty and eternal Father God, thank You, that Your Son Christ the Lord, is the Key to life itself. Amen.

No Strings Attached

"Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! "

2 Corinthians 9:15

Today's Bible Reading: Hebrews 1:1-3.

A gift is not a gift unless it is accepted. God has given you His Son, but ownership is conditional on receiving. God does not force His gift on us, but He asks us to receive by faith the gift of His Son, Jesus Christ. A person who deliberately refuses God’s offer of love, mercy, and forgiveness is lost. Most people gratefully receive a gift when given in love. The greatest sin that a person can commit is to refuse God’s love. 

Prayer: God of all compassion, thank You for the Gift of Your Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Words You Can Count On

"Not by might nor by power,

but by My Spirit,’Says the Lord of hosts."

Proverbs 28:13

Today's Bible Reading: Ephesians 1:18–20.

After the crucifixion the beleaguered disciples despaired and said, “We were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel ” (Luke 24:21). There was anguish, despair, and tragedy in their midst. Life had lost its meaning and purpose. But when the resurrection became apparent, life took on a new meaning. It had purpose and reason.

The British doctor, and Protestant missionary David Livingstone once addressed a group of students at Glasgow University. When he rose to speak, he bore on his body the marks of his African struggles. Several illnesses on nearly 30 occasions had left him gaunt and haggard. His left arm, crushed by a lion, hung limp by his side. After describing his trials and tribulations, he said, “Would you like to have me tell you what supported me through all the years of exile among people whose language I could not understand, and whose attitude toward me was always uncertain and often hostile? It was this, ‘Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.’ On these words I staked everything, and they never failed.”

Prayer: Father, I am never alone because of Your love. Thank You, in the name of my Lord and Saviour. Amen.
