Father, please remind us that we have eternal life now, when we received your gift of salvation. Help us to live life now, as having received that gift.

Taken from the John MacArthur study Bible

With this statement, Jesus moved Martha from an abstract belief in the resurrection that will take place “on the last day” (cf. 5:28 , 29 ) to a personalized trust in Him who alone can raise the dead. No resurrection or eternal life exists outside of the Son of God. Time (“on the last day”) is no barrier to the One who has the power of resurrection and life ( 1:4 ) for He can give life at any time.

Just as Satan tempted Jesus in the wilderness, by twisting the word of God, so shall he try to do to us, who follow Jesus. We must speak Gods truth to each other, and not worldly wisdom, which will lead us down a path of destruction. What will you choose, Life or Death? Choose Life! This world is not our eternal home.

For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

Use my mouth for good and not evil!

Oh, how I am convicted as the holidays approach, with this sound principle from James. I woke up this morning oppressed by a spirit of torment over a conflict from Mothers Day. May my tongue be used for good and not evil, as these days of interaction between family and those we struggle with. Fill me with you Spirit, Lord.

For where your heart is, thus lies your treasure. Guard your heart at all costs. A depraved heart can produce poverty way beyond material things.

The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He leads me beside quiet waters, He restores my Soul. May you day be filled with comfort, as the Good Shepherd quiets your soul as you rest in him beside quiet waters.

Mold us in the unique image you want us to be, oh LORD. May we not fight against you, as to what we will be. We can trust you LORD. AMEN

How great to have a friend and a Brother!

Take from John MacArthur Study Bible

The difference between a friend and brother is noted here. A true friend is a constant source of love, while a brother in one’s family may not be close, but is drawn near to help in trouble. Friends are closer than brothers because they are available all the time, not just in the crisis.

And who do we declare this great truth? Before men. What an honor that we get to declare to all, the mercy he has shown on us, by giving to us his son.
