JULY 11 – EZEK. 24:2-3

7/11            Ezekiel 34:2-3

2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds, the leaders of Israel. Give them this message from the Sovereign Lord: What sorrow awaits you shepherds who feed yourselves instead of your flocks. Shouldn’t shepherds feed their sheep?3 You drink the milk, wear the wool, and butcher the best animals, but you let your flocks starve.

RELIGIOUS

God condemns the religious leaders in the Bible.  

HE called them to protect His beloved sheep.

Instead, they cheat the sheep, abuse the sheep, and let them die. 

There is no love.

No search for the lost.  

Tragedy.  

JULY 10 – ISAIAH 43:20

7/10            Isaiah 43:20

20 The wild animals in the fields will thank me,
    the jackals and owls, too,
    for giving them water in the desert.
Yes, I will make rivers in the dry wasteland
    so my chosen people can be refreshed.

CONSTANTLY

GOD is constantly thinking about mankind.

God is constantly thinking about you.  

God’s love is perfect, and He is seeking you.  

Constantly!!!

    the unfailing love of the Lord fills the earth.

ONLY

Only God can have perfect love.

Only God can love us as imperfect as we are.  

Only God would send His Only Son to save us.  

Only God whose unfailing love fills the earth.  

Only God!

JULY 8 – PS. 104:24-25

7/08            Psalm 104:24-25

24 O Lord, what a variety of things you have made!
    In wisdom you have made them all.
    The earth is full of your creatures.
25 Here is the ocean, vast and wide,
    teeming with life of every kind,
    both large and small.

CREATION

God created.

His creation is complex and in great variety.

Everything works together under His hand.  

The more we discover, the more order we find in creation.

Follow the Lord.  

He created you. 

You are yearning to be close to Him, your creator.  

Follow the Lord.   

JULY 7 – ROMANS 1:20

7/07            Romans 1:20

20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.

NO EXCUSE

No one has an excuse.

All are guilty.

Only the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ pays for our sin.

Turn to Jesus in faith. 

Believe in Him and you shall be saved.

4 He holds in his hands the depths of the earth and the mightiest mountains.
5 The sea belongs to him, for he made it.  His hands formed the dry land, too.

6 Come, let us worship and bow down.  Let us kneel before the Lord our maker,

KNEEL

Know where you are-an alien passing through. 

Remember that life is but a vapor.

Find the good-rejoice in the good-create an attitude of gratitude.

We cannot control our destiny but we sure can make the journey joyous.  

JULY 4 – PS. 96:11

11 Let the heavens be glad, and the earth rejoice!  Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise!

ALL

Gratitude is a key element. 

We can remember this.  

Gratitude is important for our daily life.  

Thank the Lord.  Thank the Lord.
