Monthly Scripture Reading
Ecclesiastes 11
Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.
Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.
If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be.
He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.
As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun.

After Many Days
Richard Wurmbrand (March 24, 1909-February 17, 2001), who suffered so much for Christ, and was the author of Tortured for Christ, was a hardened atheist, but God had his eye on him.
As the story goes there was an old carpenter up in the mountains of Romania who prayed: “My God, I have served you on earth and I wish to have my reward in heaven. But I wish my reward should be that I not die until I bring a Jew to Christ, because Jesus was from the Jewish people.”
One day. Richard was irresistibly drawn to the village where the carpenter lived, and where there was no other Jew residing. Seeing he was a Jew the carpenter befriended him, and spent hours praying for his salvation. He gave him a Bible, and never lost an opportunity to be kind and helpful. Eventually, Richard Wurmbrand was saved by the grace of God. The old carpenter had his wish and petition, and Wurmbrand went on to be mightily used of the Lord.
Maybe you are praying for someone you have been witnessing to. Don’t give up! The promise is: “Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days” (Ecclesiastes 11:1).

Dear Young Christian:
Sometimes we think we have a hard life. But here is a good verse to consider as we head out at the beginning of another week. “For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us” (Romans 8:18).
The Apostle Paul was no stranger to pain and suffering. Many times he experienced physical and psychological trauma as part of his service for Christ. Given the increasing persecution of believers in the world today one might wonder, “Is it really worth standing for God?” The Apostle counters that there is no comparison between this age and the glory to follow. Eternal riches far outweigh temporal agony. Meanwhile, grace is able to sustain His suffering servants until Christ delivers them to glory. Like Paul we have the present promise, “My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Draw on that resource as you go through the daily circumstances of life in the days ahead.

The Finished Work of Christ
If sinners are to be saved, Christ must die; for man’s life is forfeited on account of sin. Hence He says, “As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:14-15).
Man’s disobedience in Eden dishonored God, and brought the world under the power of Satan and sin. For four thousand years God tested fallen man in various ways, but it only proved how utterly fallen he is. “But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son” (Galatians 4:4). On the cross of Calvary He suffered, died, and bled. There…
God was infinitely glorified,
Satan’s power was annulled,
Sin’s judgment was borne.
Every claim of God was once and forever perfectly met. And God raised Him from the dead to His own right hand in glory, where He is now seated, a testimony to the whole universe that the atoning work is done. The Lord could declare: “I have glorified Thee on the earth: I have finished the work which Thou gavest Me to do” (John 17:4).

Dead Weight
A young man asked a preacher, “You say that unsaved people carry a weight of sin. How heavy is sin? Is it ten pounds? Eighty pounds? I don’t feel any weight!”
The preacher replied by asking: “If you laid a four hundred pound weight on a corpse, would it feel the load?”
The youth replied, “It would feel nothing, because it is dead.”
The preacher concluded, “He, too, is dead indeed who feels no load of sin or is indifferent to its burden and flippant about its presence.”
The young man was silenced.
What a wonderful thing it is to be in possession of divine life. Here is what the Bible has to say to those of us who are saved: “And you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins … Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) … For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast” (Ephesians 2:1,5,8-9). Is this true of you?

Monthly Question Page
Q. At the wedding in Cana of Galilee, why did the Lord save the best wine for the last?
A. The host of the wedding provided the wine that was drunk at the beginning, and the Lord provided what was miraculously changed from the six water-filled vessels. What the Lord gives is always better than what man can provide.
Also there is a prophetic character to the story of the marriage. Consider this Old Testament prophecy. “Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for He hath torn, and He will heal us; He hath smitten, and He will bind us up. After two days will He revive us: in the third day He will raise us up, and we shall live in His sight” (Hosea 6:1-2). So we learn that “the third day” (see John 2:1) has to do with the restoration, and millennial joy of God’s earthly people, the nation of Israel. This will be based on their repentance and His provision for them through grace.
On a practical note, we learn that human joy, of which the wine is a type, quickly runs out, and that it is only “the joy of the Lord” (Nehemiah 8:10), that has real lasting quality and substance. As the Lord said to His disciples, “Your joy, no man taketh from you” (John 16:22).
We would love to hear from you.

God’s Filtering System
“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise,
think on these things” (Philippians 4:8).
God has a filtering system for our thoughts. Are your thoughts:
o True
o Honest
o Just
o Pure
o Lovely
o Of Good Report
o Virtuous
o Full Of Praise?
How many of the above boxes can you honestly check? What are you filling your mind with? What are you thinking about? Is it thoughts of Christ and your heavenly blessings?
Something to think about, isn’t it!

Pray Everyday
“Men ought always to pray, and not to faint”
(Luke 18:1).
“Pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17).
When was the last time you prayed? I mean really prayed! When was the last time you spent time in the presence of God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ? There is no substitute for prayer, and there is no power in our Christian life without it. None!
Do not let the pressures of life and the busyness of society rob you of time alone in supplication. Discipline yourself to take time for prayer … at least once a day if not more. Just as you need gasoline in your car engine to give it power, so you need prayer in your life if you expect to have strength for the day, spiritual energy for Christian warfare, as well as fruit for the Lord in your life.
Don’t let your spiritual battery get low. Learn to recharge it often. It can only be recharged by being alone with the One who is our source and resource!
“Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving” (Colossians 4:2).

Holding
It has been rightly said, that it is good to hold tightly to what is eternal and loosely to what is temporal. Yet how often it seems to be the reverse. We seem more concerned with our worldly possessions and spend much valuable time seeking them, and forget that they are only transient and passing at best. The Apostle Paul put it in perspective when he wrote, “We look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal” (2 Corinthians 4:18).
That is not to say that we don’t value the temporal things that God has entrusted to us for this life. But we need to always remember that those things that we have in Christ are the things of real value and what are ours for eternity. Unlike our earthly goods we can never lose those blessings that are ours in Christ. No wonder Paul said, “This one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:13-14).

Dear Young Christian:
Maybe your thoughts are all in a turmoil as you face another week in a world of sin, sorrow, problems, and certainly opposition to Christ and His followers. Just remember that before the Lord left His disciples in a hostile world He said, “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (John 14:27). Later on the Apostle Paul wrote, “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7).
With these verses in mind you can start the week with the same peace that the Lord had when He walked through this world, and the same peace that Paul and the Christians in Philippi experienced hundreds of years ago. That peace is still available and is still as real as ever. Enjoy it!
Your Christian Friend,

His Patience
“The Lord is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9).
Our Lord’s patience was at its best when the display of man’s sin, hatred, and cruelty, was at its worst. He was tested beyond measure, yet Isaiah foretold it when he wrote: “He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth: He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so He openeth not His mouth” (Isaiah 53:7). Betrayed with a kiss, struck in the face by a servant, reviled by the High Priests, humiliated and tortured by Roman soldiers, He bore it all. In excruciating pain as they hammered Him to the cross, He lifted His heart in a prayer of love “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do” (Luke 23:34). We do well to echo the words of Thomas, “My Lord and My God” (John 20:28).
O patient and spotless One!
Our hearts in meekness train,
To bear Thy yoke and learn of Thee,
That we may rest obtain.
(#174 Little Flock Hymn Book)

The Great Pyramid
“There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death” (Proverbs 16:25).
The Great Pyramid of Giza is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids in the Giza burial ground bordering what is now El Giza, Egypt. It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact
It has been suggested that the Great Pyramid was constructed at the angle of light’s refraction and deflection, and that the ancient Egyptians expected their monarch’s soul to rise to heaven on a ray of sunlight. Pharaoh knew he had a soul, and he believed in an after-life and a heaven. However he missed it, for no ray of sunlight will ever convey a soul to glory.
Paul had “a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better” (Philippians 1:23). Unlike the early Egyptians, his assurance lay in the fact that the Lord Jesus had died on the cross, and through Christ’s death his sins had been put away. All who believe this will one day be conveyed by the Lord Jesus to heaven. Will you be there?

To Cast or Carry
One of our readers sent in a poem that they had written. We will include it here as today’s meditation.
We’re told to not worry,
To lay down our care.
We’re told all our burdens
He’ll willingly bear.
His grace is sufficient
In our time of needs.
His love is around us
As for us He pleads.
So cast your care on Him,
Don’t worry or fret;
Not one of my burdens
Has He refused yet.
“Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you”(1 Peter 5:7).
“My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9).

Practical Applications
of God’s Word
Part 2 — Enduring
“The Word of the Lord endureth for ever”
(1 Peter 1:25).
“For ever, O LORD, Thy Word is settled in heaven” (Psalm 119:89).
The Bible endures! No other book has lasted, and remained on the “best-seller” list for hundreds of years. Only the Word of God! And not only so, but it is more up to date than the daily newspaper. It fits what is happening today just as much as it did in the past, and it will do the same tomorrow. It was what we needed for salvation and it is what we need for every answer to every question of life. It gives us the past, the present, and the future. The Psalmist said: “Thou through Thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers: for Thy testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the ancients, because I keep Thy precepts” (Psalm 119:98-100).
Men have tried to eradicate it from the earth for generations. It has been scorned, banned, burned, and men have given their lives to protect it. Yet it still flourishes. Why? Because it is the Word of God, and the original is in heaven.

If Not
Yet Will I Trust Him
“Our God is able to deliver us … But if not … ”
(Daniel 3:17-18).
The Hebrew children, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, did not doubt that God could save them from the furnace, but if He did not they would be faithful, anyway. It is well to be prepared for the “if nots.” God is always able, but sometimes it is not His will to deliver us from the fiery furnace. But He will save us in the furnace. He does not always spare us trouble, but He does provide strength, comfort, and encouragement for us in trouble.
If you are facing a furnace, make provision for the “if not.” If you are not healed, if the dear one is taken in death, if that friend fails you, be faithful, anyway. Job in all his trials declared, “Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him” (Job 13:15). If things do not turn out the way you had hoped and prayed they would, do not bow to Nebuchadnezzar’s image of doubt or fear or discouragement. That is what the devil wants, as when he put Job in his furnace of trial.
God can do it … God can deliver … God can keep you from the furnace of affliction. But if He doesn’t, He is still your God. Blessed and happy are the Christians of the “If Nots!”

Psalm 23:1
Give me one hundred thousand dollars, and one reverse of fortune, one downturn in the stock market, or one wrong business transaction may scatter it all away. But let me have a spiritual hold of this divine assurance: “The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want,” then I am all right; I am set up for life and for eternity. I can never be bankrupt, for I hold this security: “The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.” Nothing can change that! He has declared, “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of My hand. My Father, which gave them Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father’s hand” (John 10:27-29).
Do not give me ready money now; give me a check book, and let me draw what I like. This is what God does with the believer. He does not immediately transfer his inheritance to him, but lets him draw what he needs out of the riches of His fullness in Christ Jesus.

Dear Young Christian:
As we start out this week, let’s remember that God has made us His children, not simply that we might not perish, but that we might know the affections of His heart and enjoy them. “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us” (1 John 4:10). He loves us, not because of what we are, but for what He is.
It is good to be occupied with His great love for us, not our feeble love for Him. To be occupied with our love for Him will only discourage us, but His love for us will warm our hearts and deepen our love for Him. The Spirit of God does not turn the eye inward except when it is necessary to judge self, for the Spirit of God occupies the believer with Christ and all that Christ is to God and to His own … you and me.
Let His love fill your heart this week, and quote with the Apostle Paul, “The Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me” (Galatians 2:20). Nothing can change that divine, perfect love. It is consistent in its outflow and will never change.
Your Christian Friend,
Jim Hyland

John 17:4
There are two wonderful truths stated by the Lord Jesus Himself in this verse:
First, “I have glorified Thee on the earth.”
It has been stated that to be glorified is to have every attribute and quality that makes up a person’s character brought into full display. So the Lord Jesus at the end of His time here in this world, could unequivocally affirm that every attribute and quality of God His Father had been fully and completely exhibited. He could say to Philip, “He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father” (John 14:9).
Second, “I have finished the work which Thou gavest Me to do.”
When the Lord Jesus left this world to return to the Father, not one thing was left undone of all that had been given Him to do. The work was finished! Finished to the eternal satisfaction and glory of God! He had stated earlier in John’s gospel, the purpose for which He had come. “For I came down from heaven, not to do Mine own will, but the will of Him that sent Me” (John 6:38).
God has been glorified the work is finished, and we rejoice and worship the One who did it all.

Light
“Mine eyes have seen Thy salvation, which Thou hast prepared before the face of all people; a light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of Thy people Israel”
(Luke 2:30-32).
Here are some wonderful testimonies from those who died knowing Christ as their Saviour:
A blind Hindu boy, when dying, said joyfully: “I see! I see! I have light now. I see the King in His beauty. Tell the missionary the blind boy sees!”
A wounded soldier, asked if he were ready to die, said, “Oh yes: my Saviour in whom I have long trusted is with me now. The dark valley is lighted up by His smile.”
A young man who had recently found Jesus was dying. A friend who stood near him asked, “Is it dark?” “No, no,” he exclaimed, “it’s light, it’s light, it’s all light!” And in the joy which this light gives, he entered into heaven.
In contrast, the singer/songwriter Hank Williams, who wrote “I Saw The Light,” on his death bed, in agony of soul said, “There is no light.” How tragic!
What would your testimony be if you were called on to leave this world and face eternity today?

God’s Will
“The Lord saith … them that honor Me I will honor”
(1 Samuel 2:30).
“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Young believer, are you in an anguish of mind as to God’s will for you? Do you feel like it is something you will never be able to discern … never be able to know … or recognize? Perhaps it is knowing what job or career to follow. Maybe it is what college, university, or trade school you should attend. Or perhaps it is in regard to whether you should date or marry a certain person.
Today’s verses give us two key principles in regard to knowing God’s will. The first is, “honor,” and the second is “trust.” Learn these two things well, practice them along with your daily prayer life, and then enjoy the peace of knowing that He will guide you into the life He has planned for you. If these things are a reality, you will find yourself, “doing the will of God from the heart” (Ephesians 6:6). This will certainly make for a happy and fruitful life!

The Lord’s Coming — Part 2
“Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words”
(1 Thessalonians 4:17-18).
Who can think or speak of the happy reunions on that morning of cloudless joy? Doubtless the person of the Lord will fix every eye, and delight every heart; still there will be the recognition of those who, though long parted from us here, have never lost their place in our hearts. And as all will perfectly bear the image of the Lord, we can never lose sight of Him. Though every one will have his own identity and his own special joy, yet all will be like the Lord, and the joy of each will be the common joy of all. But chiefest of all our joys that heavenly morning, and from which all other joys shall flow, will be to see His face, and to behold His glory. The Apostle John sums up all this blessedness by saying: “We know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is” (1 John 3:2).
What comfort this is, and what courage it gives us to press on until that moment when we finally see Him face to face!

The Lord’s Coming — Part 1
“For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first”
(1 Thessalonians 4:15-16).
The Lord Jesus rises up, He descends from heaven, He gives the word Himself, the voice of the archangel passes it on, and the trumpet gives a well-known sound.
This is an allusion to a Roman military practice. As well-trained troops know their commander by the sound of the trumpet, so will the army of the Lord answer instantly to His call. All the dead in Christ shall rise, and all the saved who are living shall be changed; and they shall enter the cloud, and be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air; and they shall be ever with Him. This is the first resurrection, the rapture of the saints. Before the judgments fall, the saints are all gone — gone to glory, gone to be with the Lord forever! What a thought! What an event! All caught up together, and to be conducted by Him to the Father’s house of many mansions.

Understanding
Have you ever hoped for something,
And never understood,
Why the Lord did not allowed it,
Though you thought it was for good?
Have you ever really wondered
Why He holds back certain things,
And often into circumstances,
Grief and trial brings?
Remember, all is for your good,
Though often at the time,
You do not understand His ways,
Nor yet His praises chime.
Still, in all He does, He loves us,
And the day is drawing near.
When we understand and praise Him,
For each joy, and for each tear.
“Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter” (John 13:7).

Dear Young Christian:
This week I am staying in a home where there are several young people in the family. This morning I am hearing some Monday-morning-groans and sighs as life gets going again. I suppose this is more common than I realize, as I have never been a person who has trouble getting started on Monday mornings, or any other morning of the week for that matter. However we are all unique, and we all operate at different levels of energy at different times of the day or night.
Whatever our personality or potentiality, as believers we need to keep in mind the fact that the Lord wants us to do our best in every endeavour of life, whether our home life, our school life, our personal life, or our service for Him. Here are two good verses to keep in mind as we start out on this Monday morning.
1. “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men” (Colossians 3:23).
2. “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31).

The Result
“And they worshiped Him … with great joy: And were continually … praising and blessing God. Amen”
(Luke 24:52-53).
The disciples had walked with the Lord Jesus during the years of His public ministry. They had been occupied with Himself, listening to His words, observing His gracious and loving manner, seeing the miracles, and communing with Him in private. Now they had seen Him several times in resurrection, and they had just seen Him ascend back to heaven.
What was the result?
Worship
Great joy
Continual praise
Blessing God
These four things, will be evident in our lives too, in the measure in which we are occupied with the person and work of Christ. How much is it true in your life today — this first day of the week — and how much will it be true during the week to come?

The Joy of Salvation
“Whoso trusteth in the Lord, happy is he”
(Proverbs 16:20).
The only people on earth who know lasting happiness or have an entrance into the joys of salvation are true “born again” Christians. Knowing that their sins have been forgiven and washed away by the precious blood of Christ, and that they are saved for all eternity, what could result but a flood of thanksgiving? As Peter declares, “Believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory” (1 Peter 1:8).
Some people believe that conversion to God puts a damper on happiness, not understanding at all what it is about. If one has never tasted the pure waters of redeeming love, how can he compare it to the polluted pleasure streams of this world? The Bible tells us to “O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in Him” (Psalm 34:8).
Have you believed the glad tidings? Are you rejoicing in eternal life? If not, you have missed the greatest, the only true and abiding joy to be found on earth.
“Yea, happy is that people, whose God is the Lord” (Psalm. 144:15).

Singlemindedness
“The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light” (Matthew 6:22).
In the old days of slavery in the United States of America, when men and women escaped from their cruel masters, they knew that the Pole Star (also known as the North Star), would lead them north to Canada and freedom if they followed it precisely. They traveled by night for fear of being recaptured, and therefore they learned little of the geography of the country. As they hastened through the woods and forded the streams they did not stop to collect botanical specimens or stop to admire the views. As they hurried through the towns and villages, they had nothing to do with their betterment, cleanup, or municipal politics. They minded one thing, the Pole Star.
How good it is, when as believers, we have “singleness of heart” (Colossians 3:22), and single eye with a heavenly guide and goal.This will preserve us from many a pitfall and keep us from many a dangerous digression in our Christian pathway.

All About Christ
“Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of Me”
(John 5:39).
“He expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning Himself” (Luke 24:27).
The Bible is all about Christ from cover to cover!
The Old Testament was the preparation for Christ.
The Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John), are the presenceof Christ.
The book of Acts is the preaching of Christ.
The Epistles are the people of Christ.
The Revelation is the preeminence of Christ.
Christ in every life,
On every sacred sheet:
Revealed by the Holy Ghost,
That precious Corn of Wheat.
The Bible is of HIM,
Of Jesus Christ the Lord:
All about the Heavenly Man,
The blessed, Living Word.
