Glory Seed Guidelines

Notice – The ministries featured in this section of TheologyWeb are guests of this site and in some cases not bargaining for the rough and tumble world of debate forums, though sometimes they are. Additionally, this area is frequented and highlighted for guests who also very often are not acclimated to debate fora. As such, the rules of conduct here will be more strict than in the general forum. This will be something within the discretion of the Moderators and the Ministry Representative, but we simply ask that you conduct yourselves in a manner considerate of the fact that these ministries are our invited guests. You can always feel free to start a related thread in general forum without such extra restrictions. Thank you.

These daily devotionals are brought to you by Gary Piper, a writer with our Sister Site, Natural Spirit Ministries. TheologyWeb encourages you to visit and support their site.... they have many informative articles which can be discussed right here. If you enjoy Gary Piper's devotionals, please send him an encouraging note or post. We are very appreciative of our partnership with Natural Spirit Ministries and look forward to many more co-ventures.

    Glory Seed Devotionals, 2016: Year of the Blessing
    When life says, “No!” Jesus says, Go!”
    PEACE be unto you!

    Of all the “voices” we hear throughout the day perhaps the most powerful soundless voice we hear is the one only we can hear. For example not a day goes by but what at some point I don’t hear the voice of Discouragement saying, “Gary, with your troubled heart, decreased lung capacity, artificial hips and other health issues you’d better just sit back take things easy watch TV, read a book, do a puzzle because the less you do the longer you’ll live.”

    If it weren’t for Jesus’ voice whispering through the words of the prophet Isaiah , "Come to Me with your ears wide open. Listen, and you will find life. I will make an everlasting covenant with you. I will give you all the unfailing love I promised to David. See how I used him to display My power among the peoples…” (Isaiah 55:3-4 NLT) It would be so easy to fall into Discouragements trap.

    The voice of discouragement may not be sounding off in your heart like it does with me but I suspect you have negative voices unique to your life experience. Perhaps it’s the voice of Inferiority, or the voice of superiority, or the voice of Depression, or the voice of Desperation, or the voice of Prejudice, to mention a few I’ve struggled with over the years.

    When the “chips” are down there’s only one voice, Jesus’ voice, we can count on. I remember in the early hours following my heart surgery in September of 2013 it was Jesus’ “voice” that encouraged me to keep “plugging” away.

    Believe in presence of the GOD and in the strength of his GRACE!
    Gary
