Volume XIII, Page XIV Wednesday November 1, 2006       "Duty Assignment!" "Rise UP Kingdom of God!" Romans 15:16 (New International Version) ....to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles with the priestly duty of proclaiming the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. The Apostle Paul along with other 1st century believers who obediently proclaimed the Good News of Jesus as Christ to the Gentile nations, did so because they recognized their duty as appointed to them by God's Holy Spirit.

Volume XIV, Page I Thursday November 2, 2006       "Heirs by Faith!" "God's Promise to the Righteous!" Romans 4:13-15 (New International Version) It was not through law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that he would be heir of the world, but through the righteousness that comes by faith...... Abraham was called by God as the father of many nations, a promise that is being fulfilled each and every day as more and more people hear and accept the Truth, the Good News of Christ, and HIS finished work of the cross upon which HE hung as our Savior, Redeemer and King.

Volume XIV, Page II Friday November 3, 2006       "Comfort in Praise!" "Compassion of my Father!" 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (New International Version) ...the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles,...... Believers in Christ often suffer intensely for their Faith in Christ, some to the degree of the Apostles Peter, James and Paul.

Volume XIV, Page III Tuesday November 7, 2006       "Covenant, Prophecy and Promise!" "Reward for Faithfullness!" John 15:18-25 (New International Version) (Jesus speaking)...Remember the words I spoke to you: 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name,..... The Apostle John records Jesus' WORDs revealing to HIS disciples the Truth of their choice of believing in HIM as Messiah, Savior and Lord.

Wednesday November 8, 2006       "Weeds and Bad Seed!" "One Worthless, the Other Fruitless!" Mark 4:18-19 (New International Version) (Jesus speaking)...Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word; but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful. Christ taught HIS disciples by using many parables, which requires spiritual discernment to understand, and is necessary to expose and reveal the true objective of the unrighteous who were in their midst.

Friday November 10, 2006       "A Living Hope!" "Eyesight Strengthened by Faith!" 1 Peter 1:3-9 (New International Version) .....In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish,.... The Apostle Peter, who earlier in his faith had denied knowing Christ, and a short time later, both witnessed and experienced the manifestation of Holy Spirit upon his life and the other disciples at Pentecost.

Tuesday November 14, 2006       "Prophetic WORDs!" "Realizing the TRUTH!" Luke 21:12-19 (New International Version) (Jesus speaking).....all on account of my name. This will result in your being witnesses to them. But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict..... The Apostle Luke records Jesus speaking to HIS disciples about accepting and following HIM as Lord and Savior in Faith, and the Victory that would be gained by standing firm through every trial and persecution that was yet to come.

Wednesday November 15, 2006       "A Raging FIRE!" "HIS Church Burning with Passion!" Luke 24:32 (New International Version) They asked each other, "Were not our hearts burning within us while he(Jesus) talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?" As I recall my first encounter with the King of Glory, journeying down my road of life, I too felt that burning desire within my heart to be a bold witness of Christ, proclaiming HIM as Lord and Savior to a lost and dying generation that now many years later, still rejects Christ as Savior and Lord, without any HOPE of Eternity in the Presence of Almighty God.

Friday November 17, 2006       "Treasures of HIS Kingdom!" "Both Now and Forever!" Matthew 13:52 (New International Version) He said to them, "Therefore every teacher of the law who has been instructed about the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old." Every parable concerning the Kingdom of God which Christ uses to reveal HIS Majesty, HIS position of Power and Authority and even to the vastness of Heaven's storeroom, must be a reminder that a King's treasures were collected either by inheritance or war, or even both.

Monday November 20, 2006       "Solid and Firm!" "Life is Christ!" Luke 6:49 (New International Version) (Jesus speaking) "But the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete." By reading and studying God's WORD, Old Testament Patriarchs, Kings and Prophets, along with the New Testament Witnesses, Apostles and Teachers, I receive more and more understanding of God, and HIS Son, Christ Jesus.

Tuesday November 21, 2006       "Thank YOU, God!" "YOU are my Supplier!" 2 Corinthians 9:9-12 (New International Version) ...Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness...... I give thanks to God, for HE alone continually supplies my portion, through the hands of generous and faithful believers who have received increase.

Wednesday November 22, 2006       "Declare HIS Praises!" "Chosen People of God!" 1 Peter 2:9 (New International Version) But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. There are many scriptures written to the testimony of God's chosen people, and still over 2000 years later, there are millions who are without Salvation and HOPE.

Monday November 27, 2006       "Feast or Famine!" "Satisfying a Hungry Heart!" Matthew 5:6 (New International Version) Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. By HIS own WORDs, Christ Jesus spoke of principles that can and will nourish and sustain me as a believer throughout my life, for these principles have been in effect since Creation, not having lost importance or significance over time.

Tuesday November 28, 2006       "A Glorious Light!" "Let Christ Shine in You!" 2 Corinthians 4:6 (New International Version) For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. For believers who are continually being transformed by Holy Spirit into the image of Christ, it is then that God's Glory which shines through us, gives light to a world living in darkness, a reflection of HIS Love and Compassion that overflows from a heart of gratefullness and thanksgiving.

Wednesday November 29, 2006       "The True Witness!" "Christ is God's Son!" 1 John 4:1-3 (New International Version) Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.... The Apostle John writes these Holy Spirit inspired WORDS as a Witness of who Christ Jesus is, and a warning to all who believe in HIM that deceiving spirits continually work to destroy the witnesses of The Resurrected Lord.

Thursday November 30, 2006       "Gifts of Grace!" "Measured by Faith!" Romans 12:3-8 (New International Version) ...so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith..... What I sometimes see as irrational, irresponsible and even on the borderline of childish ignorance, is my complete understanding of the unifying works of the Gifts of Grace, which as a Believer were given to me by God through Holy Spirit for operation in and through the Body of Christ, HIS Church.
