Today's Good News

Author - Clay Corvin

APRIL 8 – YOU

April 8                        Ephesians 5:15-17

15 So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. 16 Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. 17 Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do. 

YOU

You know what the Lord requires of you-ask Jesus to forgive you of your sin and to come into your heart and save you-that’s what you do then you are to be-to love Him with all of your heart and to love your neighbor as yourself.  Think about what you are doing.  Forgive quickly.  Ask for forgiveness when you wrong someone. 

 

 

APRIL 7 – AMEN

April 7                        1 Peter 1:23-25

23 For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God. 24 As the Scriptures say, “People are like grass; their beauty is like a flower in the field. The grass withers and the flower fades. 25 But the word of the Lord remains forever.” And that word is the Good News that was preached to you.

AMEN

The Scripture says it perfectly.  You have been born again to eternal life in Jesus Christ. 

 

 

APRIL 6 – PRECIOUS

April 6                        1 Peter 1:18-21

18 For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And it was not paid with mere gold or silver, which lose their value. 19 It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God. 20 God chose him as your ransom long before the world began, but now in these last days he has been revealed for your sake. 21 Through Christ you have come to trust in God. And you have placed your faith and hope in God because he raised Christ from the dead and gave him great glory. 

PRECIOUS

You are beloved and highly favored by the Creator of the Universe.  He made a way out of this life of travail into His Holy Family.  This life is in His darling Son Jesus.  Christ paid the price for your sin that you could not pay-the perfect for the imperfect.  Jesus is the way, the truth and the life for in Him you both live and have a certain future which no one or nothing can take away from you.  Christ is Lord. 

 

 

 

APRIL 4 – HUMBLE

April 4                        Proverbs 27:1-2

1 Don’t brag about tomorrow, since you don’t know what the day will bring. 2 Let someone else praise you, not your own mouth— a stranger, not your own lips. 

HUMBLE

We are called to be humble.  Assume a cloak of humility.  That doesn’t mean you are nothing because we know that we belong to Jesus and have inestimable value.  It means we recognize the value of those around us, we respect them and we are striving for their best good.  Set aside your ego and serve the Lord. 

 

APRIL 3 – LISTEN

April 3                        Psalm 90:8-12

8 You spread out our sins before you— our secret sins—and you see them all. 9 We live our lives beneath your wrath, ending our years with a groan. 10 Seventy years are given to us! Some even live to eighty. But even the best years are filled with pain and trouble; soon they disappear, and we fly away. 11 Who can comprehend the power of your anger? Your wrath is as awesome as the fear you deserve. 12 Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom. 

LISTEN

The only time we have to listen to Jesus is now.  Time flies and life will soon be over therefore we want to listen right now before it is too late.  Listen to Jesus and do what He says. 

 

 

APRIL 2 – WEAK

April 2                        Psalm 144:3-4

3 O LORD, what are human beings that you should notice them, mere mortals that you should think about them? 4 For they are like a breath of air; their days are like a passing shadow. 

WEAK

One word that best describes the best of mankind: weak.  Our strength disappears with age.  Our life can vanish in a moment.  Praise God from whom all blessings flow. 

 

APRIL 1 – CAREFUL

April 1                        James 4:14

14 How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone. 

CAREFUL

We are called to be careful the way we live our life.  We don’t know the minute or the hour therefore we are to watch and pray.  Be ready at any moment for the Lord to call upon you. 

 

 

MARCH 31 – YOU

03/31               Psalm 147:3

3 He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds. 

YOU

Are you brokenhearted?  Has life gotten you down?  The Lord is faithful.  He will never leave you.  His love is constant.  His love is healing and redeeming.  Jesus is Lord.

MARCH 30 – NEVER

03/30               Psalm 30:5

5 For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime! Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning. 

NEVER

The Lord never fails us.  He will always see us through whatever trial we are going through.  The Lord is good and He is always faithful to care for us.

MARCH 29 – ALWAYS

03/29               Psalm 23:4-6

4 Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me.   5 You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings.  6 Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of the LORD forever.

ALWAYS

The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ, is always with me.  In thick and thin the Lord is with me.  He guides me and guards me.  He is life for me and a light for my path.  The Lord is good to me.  Praise the name of the Lord.
