Wig’s Word of God Today 4-20-2011
Morning after morning He opens my ear that I may hear; and I have not rebelled, have not turned back. Isaiah 50:4c-5
For the LORD hears the poor, does not spurn those in bondage. Psalm 69:34
Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray Me. Matthew 26:21b
Isaiah 50:4-9a, Psalm 69 & Matthew 26:14-25
Isaiah calls to the LORD in times of need continuously and is steadfast in this prayer of surrender. His ability to discern the LORD’s guidance in his writings gives humanity the knowledge to overcome any fear. Where are you in your surrender to God? Where are you in your closeness to His Written Truth each and every day to shore up your needs to serve Him and praise Him? Every morning I quietly sit with the Word of God and listen to His guidance trusting the decisions I make based on His Truth. Are you seeking His guidance to accomplish His WIll in your life?
Today we read the account of the Last Supper in Matthew where Judas is identified by Jesus handing him the dipped morsel of bread. Our reading begins with Judas asking the Pharisees what they are willing to pay to have Jesus handed over to them. Yesterday in John Judas does not deny he is the one who will betray our LORD but instead leaves quickly to accomplish his work of giving up Jesus to his foes. I’m sure all of us have had our times of giving in to Satan’s pleasures instead of living each moment of every day in His forgiving love. Somehow, someway we must strive to give an unconditional love of loving our love of Christ Jesus. Amen.
So we ask in prayer: Dear LORD, We pray today for open ears to hear Your Truth and to never rebel by betraying Your love in selfish acts of sin. make us a people of faith, charity and love to fulfill Your Will in our lives. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,

Romans 8:28
“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed”
God’s Eternal Word Will Never Disgrace
My tongue is well trained
His Word my pleasure aid
Day or night I share His Truth
My footsteps His Eternal use
To the weary I give Eternal Hope
I give my back to those who grope
With their surrender to a life of peace
I shield not their spitting retreat
I am void of all disgrace
His help I seek to run the race
Opposition can learn to relate
God’s Eternal Word will never disgrace
