In
times of emergency we count on first responders to show up with the needed
equipment and ability to save us. While others rush out, these brave souls rush
in. Prince Harry of the British Royal Family is a helicopter rescue pilot; it
seems unthinkable that royalty would ever come to our rescue, but that is
precisely what we experience as believers. The Bible reveals the King of the
Universe is our Rescue! In the crushing moments when life is a crumbling
catastrophe, the Lord of Lords rushes in with all that we would ever need. O
Lord my God and King, thank You for never leaving nor forsaking those who cry
out to You.
A serious pursuit of godliness requires an equally serious renunciation of worldliness. Too often, we measure spirituality with false scales. While being wisely selective with our public vices we are less so with our private attitudes and perspectives. In reality, it is the thoughts and intents of the heart where the greatest battles must be waged; our actions will ultimately align with the condition of our hearts. Lord God, You know me inside out, You are not fooled by human facades. Plow my heart with Your Word and Spirit and leave nothing unturned. Refresh my inward man that I may outwardly glorify You in all places at all times.
