Thanks To Those Who Are Praying For My Dad

We went and visited my Dad today and he asked me to sing and play for him. I sang a couple of Gospels songs that I often sing when I preach. When I finished my Dad began to sing these words in the strongest voice we have heard in weeks-
When I come to the river at the ending of day
When the last winds of sorrow have blown
There'll be somebody waiting to show me the way
I won't have to cross Jordan alone

I won't have to cross Jordan alone
Jesus died all my sins to atone
In the darkness I see
He'll be waiting for me
I won't have to cross Jordan alone

“I Won’t Have to Cross Jordan Alone”

It is tough to watch my Dad decline in such a way, but the assurance of knowing my Dad is saved is a blessing and hearing him sing such wonderful words is a reminder of God’s amazing grace and love. Thanks to all who are praying for my Dad.

My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. Proverbs 1:10

2. Guard your company
3. Guard your character

A Well Worn Path

Joy is proof that what we have is real and that it satisfies.  Whether we take in God’s Word in our own time of reading and meditation or when we hear God’s Word preached joy will be the fruit of those times. The Prophet Jeremiah wrote, “Thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of my heart” (Jeremiah 15:16.) If we would come with such an attitude towards God’s Word I believe we would be living empowered lives, equipped lives and lives that would be fueled with a glow that would speak powerfully to the redeemed as well as the lost. Joy will be lived out in the life of the Christian who carves out time in their schedule for God’s Word. I can still remember a short time after I was saved, racing home after work at the factory and anticipating that when I got home I was going to read my Bible. I never want that anticipation to be in the rear-view mirror or a thing of the past. I want the well-worn path that runs from me to my Bible to be just that, a well-worn path. I don't want the weeds and thorns of this world to find a home on my path.

Get a hold of this- The Bible is-THE WORD OF GOD! You may be saying to yourself, "Bro. tell me something I don't know." I know that I have said this time and again, but I have no intention of apologizing, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God" (II Timothy 3:16a.) That my friends should cause you to not walk, but to run to your Bible! That should light a fire within you that the devil and all the trappings of this world could never put out. I want to invite you to come today with anticipation, with a desire and with an excitement to God's Word. Reach back to that time when God's word was the joy and rejoicing of your heart. You will never regret it.

Thanks for Visiting and thanks for Praying,
Bro. Tracy

The Benefits of God's Word

 “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. More desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping them there is great reward.” Psalm 19:7-11
 
History tells us that on January 24, 1848 a man by the name of James W. Marshall while working at Sutter’s Mill in Coloma, California found some shiny metal. After taking the substance to his boss John Sutter the two men tested the metal and discovered that Marshall had discovered gold and thus began the California gold rush.  Many became wealthy, many more did not. Some lost their lives simply trying to get to California.  The early technique was to pan the streams and rivers for the precious gold.

We have a river filled with gold and it is the Bible.  Within this gold filled book there is great treasure to be had if we will pan its depths for Gods golden words. What is it that waits within the pages of God’s word?  Our verses today only scratch the surface.

1. Salvation
2. Wisdom
3. Joy
4. Sight
5. Truth
6. Warning
7. Reward
Verse ten tells us we are to desire God’s word more than pure gold. Such desire will lead us to the sweetest taste we will ever know.  Psalm 119:103 the psalmist writes, “How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth.  The writer conveys with words what his heart feels within.  It is an outward manifestation of an inward joy.  I urge you to taste for yourselves the delicacies of God’s word and partake of the blessed benefits.
