Help me save the morality of the Boy Scouts of America.
Good Morning, this is a day that the Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad in it !!!
But it is also a sad day in our Nation.... When a group known for moral stances are starting to listen to the views of a few... That group is the: Boy Scouts of America, there is a petition going on from certain groups to end the Boy Scouts long stance on having gay scout leaders (openly gay). Therefore I would like to start another petition that supports their long standing stance to continue. To the Christians: lets stand for Jesus right now!!!! We know what our GOD can accomplish with the help of a few. (remember Chick fil-A last yr ?) The Scouts Oath is:
On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.
With this oath to God and also to be morally straight how can they allow gay leaders or any immorality (leading our boys !) ????
Let's make a stand !!!
Who will stand with me ?

Are you going to your local church ?
BIBLE MEDITATION:
Hebrews 10:25 - “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.”
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Do you know what is happening in America today? People who claim to be Christians are not getting involved and becoming faithful to a church — the local fellowship of believers. Such a thing was unheard of in the Bible. If you were a Christian, you were faithful to the fellowship. You attended when everyone gathered together. If you stopped attending, they assumed that you were an apostate. What is more important than the local visible expression of the body of Christ? It is the way we stay “plugged in” to the needs of the body of Christ. It is the way we show honor to Him in worship. It is simply the way.
ACTION POINT:
What do you have on your schedule this week that is more important than being a part of the blood-bought body of the Lord Jesus Christ?

How is your Worldview ??
How is your Worldview ????...
Why does the Chruch have no voice NOW, in our society ???.....is it because we have been too silent on spiritual issues, that the Bible clearly frowns on ?....is it because we have watered down the gospel some much to just say sin is your own point of view and not what the Bible says anymore ?????..............
All sin is sin, however the ones that creep into our society today is the Gay marriage and abortion and also might I add....disrespect to our parents, lying.... and all disobedience to God's Word......
Many will say, as long as it doesn't effect me......then why should I worry or do or say anything about it !!!!!......
I don't want to judge anyone........right ????....judging someone is their intentions from the heart, and only God can effectively do that, yes.....but God does want His people to stand up and be heard, in other words to speak the truth in love.....with love as your guide...(Holy Spirit)
I remember a woman in the Scriptures named......Queen Esther, what would have happened if she said nothing, while her people suffered....and then died later by the evil that lurked ?????
While she pondered this, of what to do....someone close to her said something... Mordeci, said if you stand by and do nothing.....make no mistake, deliverance WILL COME FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE, HOWEVER YOU AND YOUR FATHER'S HOUSE WILL BE DESTROYED.....
And who know's as whether you where brought here for such a time as this !!!!!
Chrurch family, WE MUST STAND FOR THE ONES WHO CAN'T STAND AND TALK FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T TALK, AND WE MUST ACT FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T ACT FOR THEMSELVES.....
LET'S ALWAYS DO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR OUR FATHER..... WHO SENT HIS ONLY SON FOR US, WHEN WE DID NOT DESERVE A SAVIOUR......
Do what you can do in your sphere of influence......today !!!!
God bless of the family of faith

Are you ashamed of the Gospel ???
BIBLE MEDITATION:
Romans 1:16 - “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.”
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Are you ashamed to put a Bible on your desk at work? Are you ashamed to bow your head in the cafeteria? Are you ashamed to invite people to Jesus Christ? Are you ashamed of the One who died for you? A little boy had a dog, and somebody asked him what kind of dog he was. He was just a mongrel, but the little fellow said, “Well, he’s a police dog.” The friend said, “He doesn’t look like a police dog.” The little guy replied, “He’s in the secret service.” I’m afraid that there are many of us who are in the secret service. We ought to be open and bold for the gospel of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
ACTION POINT:
Ask God to lead you out in strength and boldness today to live for Him and proclaim His love to others.

Righteousness....
BIBLE MEDITATION:
Romans 6:19 - “...now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.”
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
After a splendid victory at sea, Lord Nelson confronted the French admiral who was surrendering. The admiral, dressed in all of his regalia, approached Nelson to surrender. With his sword swinging by his side, the admiral put out his hand to the British commander. Lord Nelson stepped back and said, “Your sword first.” There are a lot of people who think they can walk up and glad-hand the Lord Jesus Christ. He says, “Your sword first.” Surrender first! Jesus is not an appeaser, and He will never make a truce with sin. Never! We have to abdicate the throne. We have to surrender to Him.
ACTION POINT:
Read Romans 6. Count the number of times the word “yield” is written. What does Paul want us to yield?

The Lord Jesus still lives....He is God !!!
BIBLE MEDITATION:
Revelation 1:18 - “I am He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore.”
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I went to see Lenin’s tomb when I was in Moscow. He is sealed in a crystal case. You can see his waxen face and his trimmed beard, and on that tomb these words are written: “He was the greatest leader of all peoples of all countries of all times. He was the lord of the new humanity. He was the savior of the world.” Do you notice it’s all past tense? He was. Jesus is alive. He is the great I AM. It is an encounter with the living Christ that makes the difference in our lives. We serve a Savior who is alive and listening to our every prayer. He is bottling every tear and rejoicing with every victory.
ACTION POINT:
Thank God for His plan of love that sent His Son to die for you. Praise Him that Jesus lives forevermore!

Because of Love....
BIBLE MEDITATION:
John 10:17b-18 - “...because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of My Father.”
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
The true depth of the Savior’s love becomes apparent when you consider an important truth — Jesus Christ is the only person who ever chose to die. “But what about kamikaze pilots in World War II? What about soldiers who, having heard the ominous 'click' of a land mine, bravely stood still until their buddies could scurry to safety?” They didn’t choose to die in the final sense of the word; they only chose when to die. You and I and everyone yet to be will die eventually, but there was only One who did not have to die. Nails didn’t hold our Savior to the tree. Silver cords of love and golden bonds of redemption held Him there.
ACTION POINT:
Read Psalm 22, 23, and 24 and rejoice in the provision, protection, and providence of the Good Shepherd!

What about our youth ?
BIBLE MEDITATION:
Psalm 71:17 - “O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared Thy wondrous works.”
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Satan is on a killing spree — he wants to kill our memory and set us awash in the sea of forgetfulness without any recollection of our Christian heritage as a nation. Tragically, he’s aiming his artillery at our children, and particularly in the place where they used to grow in the knowledge of good things — the public school. Prayer is out. Police are in. Bibles are out. Values clarification is in. The Ten Commandments are out. Social engineering is in. Creation is out. Evolution is in. History is out. Revisionism is in. God says we need to remember the generation to come.
ACTION POINT:
You have an important job — to influence the lives of those who will come after you. Teach them to walk in the ways of the Lord and against the tide of the world.

This world is not our home......
BIBLE MEDITATION:
Colossians 3:1 - “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.”
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
First Peter 2:11 says that we are aliens and strangers in this world. We are in the world, but we are not of the world. We are twice-born in a world of once-born people, and we’re going to find ourselves going against the tide most of the time. It’s like a deep sea diver who is underwater and outside his natural environment. He could not live if he weren’t linked to his life supply above. That’s the way we need to live. If we are to survive, we must stay linked to Jesus who is our life. The Bible says we’re not to set our affections on things beneath, but on things above where Christ sitteth at the right hand of the Father. (Colossians 3:1)
ACTION POINT:
It’s time to check your lifeline...are you trusting in anything in this world? Are you making friends with the things of this world?
