John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the
truth, and the life:
no man
cometh unto the Father, but by me.
There
is hardly a day that passes anymore, that
somewhere in the first few pages of the
newspaper and within the many news stories
on TV, is the word ‘INSURANCE’ not one of
the most important issues. The government
and the American people are very much in a
chaotic state of confusion and upset over
what is going to happen with our insurance
situation. Chaos and confusion are not the
products of God but of Satan.
There
are people all over this country who have no
insurance and we are told that the
government wants to supply “everyone” with
insurance. How are they going to do that????
One idea seems to be to PENALIZE those who
don’t have insurance by fining them. The
poor people of this country have enough
problems just finding food and shelter
everyday. They don’t need to worry about
being “fined” because the have no money to
have insurance coverage. And, where will
they get the money to pay a “FINE” when they
don’t have money to even feed themselves?? I
will honestly tell you that this is one of
those things that gets me “riled up” in a
hurry. The dictionary defines the word riled
as becoming angry or irritated. YEP, that is
exactly what happens to me when I think of
this so called “solution” to our insurance
problems in this country!!
Now, I
am not going to get off on this very
controversial subject because we already
have too many opinions on this anyway. And,
mine would not be any more pleasant to read
than the others. Like I said, I get “RILED
UP”!
Instead of that, let us once again return to
the dictionary and see what the definition
of the word INSURANCE is: A contract,
whereby the insurer guarantees the insured
that a certain sum will be paid for a
specified loss. The word GUARANTEE is
defined as : a positive assurance that
something will be done in the manner
suggested. It also means ‘TO PROMISE’.
Looking back on the last presidential
election and all the debates and talking and
all the PROMISES AND GUARANTEES than came
out of the mouths of our so called Leaders
in this land do not make me feel very secure
when I look at how these promises and
guarantees are playing out. This is still a
great country …….. But, it is falling daily
into the smoking furnace of Hell by the
broken promises of our so called LEADERS who
are taking innocent peoples very lives by
the promises of help that never come. MAN
CAN NOT BE TRUSTED. Psalm 14:2-3 says: The
LORD looked down from heaven upon the
children of men, to see if there were any
that did understand, and seek God. They are
all gone aside, they are all together become
filthy: there is none that doeth good, no,
not one.
The
hopes of the poor and the homeless are based
upon the ideas of the false promises and
guarantees of the deceitful words that come
from the leaders of this country. We and the
entire world have become as filthy rags
before God. How can we even begin to TRUST
any man that claims to have the answers,
when all they do is take advantage of a
twisted tongue that gives the appearance of
the truth when it is all just a pack of
lies. These lies come from their father,
Satan. Again, in Psalm 108: 12-13 King David
says it so perfectly: Give us help from
trouble: for vain is the help of man.
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it
is that shall tread down our enemies.
Fools
that we are, we turn our backs on God
everyday when He is the only One that can be
trusted. Proverbs 16:25 says, There is a way
that seemeth right unto a man, but the end
thereof are the ways of death.
INSURANCE, Do you want insurance that
everyone can afford?? Do you want a
GUARANTEE that is for eternity and is the
TRUTH in every way? Do you want a PROMISE
that you can be sure you can count on?
Do you
want to be SAVED from the torment that is to
come in this world? There are those who
might have you believe that there are many
ways that can lead you to God the Father.
They might tell you that it is your works
that will take you to Heaven. My Bible tells
me, and I believe it 100%, that there is
only ONE WAY TO GOD………..John 14:6
says: Jesus
saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and
the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but
by me.
Jesus Christ, the Son of God
is the only true INSURANCE we have in this
life. What’s more, it is free for the asking
to every man, woman and child, no matter
what your state in life. It does not matter
what race, color or creed you are. It does
not matter in what religion you have been
raised to believe. If you believe that Jesus
Christ was the One and only Son of God, Who
died on the Cross for you, was buried and
raised from the dead; If you ask God to
forgive you of your sins and you turn from
them and ask Jesus Christ to come into your
heart and life as your Savior; the Bible
tells us it is then and only then that we
are gloriously saved, FOREVER. 1John, 1:9
says: If we confess our sins, he is faithful
and just to forgive us our sins, and to
cleanse us from all unrighteousness. We are
also told in Acts 2:21 And it shall come to
pass, that whosoever shall call on the name
of the Lord shall be saved.
John 3:16 says this: For God so loved the
world that he gave his only begotten son
that whosoever believeth on him should not
parish but have everlasting life. That word
WHOSOEVER means you, it means me, without
restrictions of any kind, it means
everyone!!!
It
cannot be more simple than that. God sent
his son to die for us. Jesus Christ is the
Way, the Truth and the Life. Proverbs 3:5-6
says Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not to your own understanding. In
all thy ways acknowledge him and he will
direct your path.
We who
are alive and well in Jesus Christ have
nothing to fear. For God hath not given us
the Spirit of Fear, but of Power and of Love
and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7
Contracts, guarantees and promises cannot be
trusted. They are man’s ways of deception.
But Hebrews 13:8 says: Jesus Christ the same
yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Follow Him and have the only true
insurance there is or ever will be……JESUS
CHRIST ………….YOUR INSURANCE FOR ETERNAL LIFE.

Here is the video/poem I would like
to share with you. The poem, One Easter
Sunday, written by Kay Davis is a beauty
beyond compare. As usual, our Deacon Steve
has turned it into an even more incredible
work of art. And to top it off the beautiful
voice of Josh Groban sets it off with just
the right song to make this one of the most
beautiful of all videos on the
www.openmyeyeslord.net
website.
Please take some time to be quiet
and treat yourself to something that will
really get to your heart. Better have some
Kleenex handy. This one is a real beauty.
Thank you both, Steve and Kay, for making
this available for me to use. Just click on

Devotional for October 7, 2009
Psalm 30:5b :
Weeping may endure for a night,
but joy cometh in
the morning
My Creed: Lord,
Give me a humble heart, a soft voice,
a kind word and
the love of God that touches hearts with
it's meek approach;
To be a
"Proclaimer" of the Word of God that
points to Salvation.
That is what I
want to be before my God.

Psalm 118:28-29
Thou art my God and I will praise thee:
Thou art my God, I will exalt thee.
Oh, give thanks unto the Lord; for he is
good:
for his mercy endureth forever.
