One Walk

Keep Walking

June 12, 2018

Walking with Jesus…

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

A thought…
Beware of pronouncing any verdict on the life of faith if you are not living it.

Wisdom from Oswald Chambers
from Not Knowing Whither, 900 R

A verse…

“I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.”
Matthew 17:20

A devotion …
Getting There (2)

My Utmost for His Highest
https://utmost.org/getting-there-2/

“You are Simon….You shall be called Cephas” (John 1:42). God writes our new name only on those places in our lives where He has erased our pride, self-sufficiency, and self-interest. Some of us have our new name written only in certain spots, like spiritual measles. And in those areas of our lives we look all right. When we are in our best spiritual mood, you would think we were the highest quality saints. But don’t dare look at us when we are not in that mood. A true disciple is one who has his new name written all over him— self-interest, pride, and self-sufficiency have been completely erased.

A prayer…
O God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. Help me to keep walking by faith. Unwavering, unyielding, unstoppable faith. Faith that no one and no situation is beyond You. Nothing is impossible. Amen

Walking with Strength and Song

June 11, 2018

Walking with Jesus…

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

A thought…
Our faith is founded upon the rock-solid character of God. To trust Him with our needs and anxieties is both a privilege and a necessity. Too often, we indulge in worry or try to take care of things ourselves. Today, prayerfully break that habit and instead “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7; cf. Ps. 55:22).

Today’s thought from Today in the Word Devotion
https://www.todayintheword.org/issues/2018/06—june/devotions/11/

A verse…

O my son, give me your heart. May your eyes take delight in following my ways.
Proverbs 23:26 (NLT)

A devotion …
Jesus Calling
June 11

TRUST ME and don’t be afraid, for I am your Strength and Song. Do not let fear dissipate your energy. Instead, invest your energy in trusting Me and singing My Song. The battle for control of your mind is fierce, and years of worry have made you vulnerable to the enemy. Therefore, you need to be vigilant in guarding your thoughts. Do not despise this weakness in yourself since I am using it to draw you closer to Me. Your constant need for Me creates an intimacy that is well worth all the effort. You are not alone in this struggle for your mind. My Spirit living within you is ever ready to help in this striving. Ask Him to control your mind; He will bless you with Life and Peace.

Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.
Isaiah 12:2

You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.
Romans 8:9

The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace.
Romans 8:6

A prayer…
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. Like David, ‘I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.’ (Psalm 109:22) How can I help others, if I can’t help myself. Only in and through You can I find the strength and song to carry on and rise above myself for others. This is my prayer today. Guide me, give me the words to say, fill me with the strength of Jesus and put a song in my heart. Help me, help others. Amen

Just finished listening to Orthodoxy by G. K. Chesterton

June 9, 2018

I finished listening to Orthodoxy by G. K. Chesterton, narrated by John Lee on my Audible app.

Enjoyed it, give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Found it thoughtful and truthful. Can see why it is a Christian Classic. Orthodoxy (1908) is a book by G. K. Chesterton that has become a classic of Christian apologetics. Chesterton considered this book a companion to his other work, Heretics, writing it expressly in response to G.S. Street’s criticism of the earlier work, “that he was not going to bother about his theology until I had really stated mine”. In the book’s preface Chesterton states the purpose is to “attempt an explanation, not of whether the Christian faith can be believed, but of how he personally has come to believe it.” (Wikipedia)

Don’t Just Ask, Just Ask

June 9, 2018

Walking with Jesus…

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

A thought…
There are many truths that Jesus has revealed to me. Some easier to understand than others. I think that’s because, some seem natural to the real me, while others contradict with worldly me. But what is the real me; and how and why does it contradict with worldly me. I believe this truth. There is the me God created me to be. And there is the me that the world under the sun has influenced me to be. The questions I asked of God, and the questions I asked of others reflects which me is asking.

A devotion or two…
Then What’s Next To Do?

My Utmost for His Highest
https://utmost.org/then-what%E2%80%99s-next-to-do/

Everyone who asks receives…
Luke 11:10

The word ask actually means “beg.” Some people are poor enough to be interested in their poverty, and some of us are poor enough spiritually to show our interest. Yet we will never receive if we ask with a certain result in mind, because we are asking out of our lust, not out of our poverty. A pauper does not ask out of any reason other than the completely hopeless and painful condition of his poverty. He is not ashamed to beg— blessed are the paupers in spirit (see Matthew 5:3).

Revolutionary Communicator: Asking Questions
Life for Leaders Daily Devotion
https://mailchi.mp/depree.org/revolutionary-communicator-asking-questions?e=1bc587c115

What do you want me to do for you?”
Mark 10:51a

When a blind beggar cries out to Jesus for mercy, Jesus decides to ask the man what he wants. Isn’t it obvious? A blind beggar obviously needs to be healed! But Jesus respects the man by not assuming, but instead asking an empowering question that allows for the one in need to express his desire. Just this one observation of Jesus’s leadership speaks volumes to how we should engage with those we serve.

A prayer…
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior, help me become better at asking questions that lead people to make important changes in their lives and in the world. Empower me to live a life that causes others to ask the right kinds of questions about your Lordship, the brokenness in this world, and our role to join you in making it better. Today, I choose to not forfeit my soul for temporary things but to invest in your kingdom with my whole self. Amen.

Walking in Silence

June 8, 2018

Walking with Jesus…

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

A thought…
Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. (John C. Maxwell)

Despair like fear is routed in a lie. But when your feeling it, it’s sure hard to remember this. That’s why, just like our body’s and mind, our spirit must be strengthened through practicing Gods presence and exercising our faith.

A verse…

For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit.
Psalm 28:1

A reading…
DIVINE SILENCE? OUR FEELING OF DESPAIR

Today in the Word
https://www.todayintheword.org/issues/2018/06—june/devotions/08/

The psalm then turns from despair to joy (vv. 6–9). This shift in David’s emotional journey is raw, heartfelt, anguished—and full of faith. The psalms are emotionally honest, but they never wallow in self-centeredness. Despite his feelings, David still knows God to be his strength, shield, and shepherd. Though He seems silent now, He is a God who hears, speaks, saves, and blesses, and He will be true to His character.

Psalm 28:6-9 NLT
[6] Praise the LORD! For he has heard my cry for mercy. [7] The LORD is my strength and shield. I trust him with all my heart. He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksgiving. [8] The LORD gives his people strength. He is a safe fortress for his anointed king. [9] Save your people! Bless Israel, your special possession. Lead them like a shepherd, and carry them in your arms forever.

Read entire passage
Psalm 28
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+28

A prayer…
Dear God, Abba Father, Lord Jesus, I’ve learned through practicing Your presence. That even when I feel Your silence and think I’m all alone. You are there, You are with me. This doesn’t change my feelings of despair, but I know it will pass. And whatever I’m going through or dealing with is only temporary. For You are eternal and through Jesus I have Your promise that I cling to with each breath. This and only this, is what affects how others see me during the storms of life, and shows Your presence in me. Let me never forget. Amen

Power Walking

June 7, 2018

Walking with Jesus…

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

A thought…
Power Walking requires proper technique and focus to obtain the benefits of improved endurance and strength. You need to keep a few facts in mind when power walking…
1. Jesus Christ die on the Cross for you and me.
2. Jesus Christ has risen and lives within us.
3. Jesus Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
4. Jesus Christ intercedes for us.
So walk with power and in the name of Jesus Christ.

A verse…

Whatever you ask in My name, that I will do…
John 14:13

A devotion …
The Greatest Source of Power

My Utmost for His Highest
https://utmost.org/the-greatest-source-of-power/

What is the greatest source of power in my life? Is it my work, service, and sacrifice for others, or is it my striving to work for God? It should be none of these— what ought to exert the greatest power in my life is the atonement of the Lord. It is not on what we spend the greatest amount of time that molds us the most, but whatever exerts the most power over us. We must make a determination to limit and concentrate our desires and interests on the atonement by the Cross of Christ.

A prayer…
Dear Lord God, Abba Father, Jesus my Savior, only one thing can show You my love, awareness and acceptance of what happened on the Cross. O that You would fill me with Your power of the Cross, surround me with constant awareness of what Christ Jesus accomplished, and see me fighting to bring acceptance into every step of my daily walk. Help me break free from the chains of disobedience and regret, and focus only on the power and joy of walking as one with You. In Jesus name I ask and pray. Amen

Walking is Exercise

June 6, 2018

Walking with Jesus…

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

A thought…
When I first read about Pastor Rick Warrens Daniel Plan lifestyle it clicked. It was the logical next step in my OneWalk. To exercise my body, mind and spirit together. Walking provided the perfect pace to accomplish this for me and going on two years later, still does. Today’s devotion reminds me of so many of my walks. I start out thinking my natural way about something or someone, and finish thinking God’s will not mine. Even more, I realize just how natural to me God’s will really is once I focus on Jesus.

A verse…

…work out your own salvation…for it is God who works in you… Philippians 2:12-13

A devotion …
“Work Out” What God “Works in” You

My Utmost for His Highest
https://utmost.org/work-out-what-god-works-in-you/

With focused attention and great care, you have to “work out” what God “works in” you— not work to accomplish or earn “your own salvation,” but work it out so you will exhibit the evidence of a life based with determined, unshakable faith on the complete and perfect redemption of the Lord. As you do this, you do not bring an opposing will up against God’s will— God’s will is your will. Your natural choices will be in accordance with God’s will, and living this life will be as natural as breathing.

A prayer…
O God, my Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior here I am again ready to ‘work out what You are working in’ me, according to Your will, not my nature. Help me, give me strength, determination and perseverance to finish each daily walk in Your will. So each night when I lay my head down on my pillow. I can tell You, today I walked well. Better than yesterday, and together tomorrow will be better than today. To accomplish this I know I must stay above the distractions. Be there without being there. This requires my fighting to focus on Jesus with each breath and not let the busyness under the sun become the focus. Amen
