| 12/31/2021 | There’s only one way to heaven, but the Lord devises many ways of guiding us to that one way. The story of faith is different for each of us. Your story is unlike that of anyone else who has ever lived or who will ever live in the future. It should be recorded somewhere! Dr. David Jeremiah |

| 12/29/2021 | All Scripture is God-breathed – inspired by Him – and is profitable for conviction, correction, and instruction. It re-sets the direction of our lives and teaches us to live in a manner pleasing to Him. Our sophisticated world expresses skepticism about the veracity of the Bible; many even disregard the verses they choose not to believe. The Psalmist makes it clear though: all of His Word is true. He always keeps His word. Always. Scholars count over 1200 prophesies in the Bible. Over 400 of those prophesies pointed to the coming Messiah. His life and death perfectly fulfilled every single one. Over 3000 promises beckon in the Scriptures. You can stand on every one. The grass may wither, the flower may fade, but the Word of God stands forever (Isaiah 40:8). Every jot, every tittle, every comma, every period, every letter, every line, every word on every page will all be fulfilled. God has magnified His Word above His name (Psalm 138:2) and watches over it to be certain that it is fulfilled (Jeremiah 1:12). The Word has been mocked by cynics, dissected by unbelievers, and diluted by frauds. Yet, for all the abuse it has taken, it still endures as a testament to His faithfulness. It is the whole truth of God. John Hagee |
| 12/28/2021 | Scripture is the breath of God. It is as true as if God Almighty stood in the pulpit and spoke these words. That’s the reason Jesus said in Matthew 4:4: “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” Over and over again the Bible calls itself the Word of God. In light of this truth, let’s break down today’s verse: “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine (what is true), for reproof (what is wrong), for correction (how to get right), for instruction in righteousness (how to stay right); that the man of God may be complete (that word complete or teleos in Greek, means mature).” You want to be a full-grown Christian? Your Christian life depends upon your assurance that the Bible is the Word of God. Adrian Rogers |
| 12/27/2021 | Knowing who you are comes down to knowing Whose you are. For when we understand that God has created us and we commit to following Him, we can be at peace with who He’s made us to be. And we also know that He changes us to be more like Him each day. Author Unknown |
| 12/26/2021 | Faith that goes no further than the head can never bring peace to the heart. John Blanchard |
| 12/25/2021 | Pure prayers have pure blessings. Thomas Goodwin |
| 12/24/2021 | As character degenerates, the government must grow to cope with that societal decay. As government grows, people begin to equate security with dependence on government. So, the government begins to give to the people, and the people like it. But they fail to understand that the government cannot give them anything it doesn’t first take away. As the government begins to take, then “give it back,” we’re regulated, then controlled more and more. Adrian Rogers |
| 12/23/2021 | God never promises to save us from adversity, only to be with us in the midst of it. David Watson |
| 12/22/2021 | Life is wasted if we do not grasp the glory of the cross, cherish it for the treasure that it is, and cleave to it as the highest price of every pleasure and the deepest comfort in every pain. What was once foolishness to us—a crucified God—must become our wisdom and our power and our only boast in this world. John Piper |
| 12/21/2021 | Let thy hope of heaven master thy fear of death. William Gurnall |
| 12/20/2021 | God loves each of us as if there were only one of us. Augustine |
| 12/19/2021 | God never said that the journey would be easy, but He did say that the arrival would be worthwhile. Max Lucado |
| 12/18/2021 | God’s work done in God’s way will never lack God’s supplies. Hudson Taylor |
| 12/17/2021 | God sometimes permits that which He hates, in order to accomplish that which He loves. Joni Eareckson Tada |
| 12/16/2021 | When we come to Christ in our youth, a life is saved. When we come in old age, a soul is salvaged and life eternal is assured; but the opportunity to live a life for Christ has been lost. Billy Graham |
