Devotion 1: Matthew 6:6 “But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.” (NKJV) This is one of the most personal and intimate scriptures in all of Scripture. These red letters flowing with love clearly state eight times that Jesus is calling you to a closer and deeper walk with Him. Jesus emphasizes His desire for each individual person by using the words “you” or “your” eight times in this one verse. Jesus meant for this to be a very personal invitation into His presence. This is a very intentional statement made by Jesus. He wanted His followers to be able to use His words here as a very clear roadmap to a closer walk with the Father. This Scripture is an instruction manual telling us how we can have intimacy with the Father. We must find a place to pray, shut out the world, and then in that secret place, seek the Father. Jesus promises us that when we seek the father, He will already be there waiting on us. WOW! The Creator of the Universe wanted to give you clear details on how to have a personal, private and secret place prayer conversation with Him every single day. 11/13/2024 10:03 AM

When we dig in deeper we understand what Jesus was trying to tell us

When we dig in deeper we understand what Jesus was trying to tell us

When we dig in deeper we understand what Jesus was trying to tell us, Jesus wants us to get to know the Father. As we get to know the Father, He will reveal His heart and then we will learn how to pray the will and plans of God. When we find God in the secret place, He reveals our destiny to us. The more time we spend with Him, the more He reveals our destiny. When we start to walk in this type of intimacy with the Lord, we will understand the power and authority that we have as children of God. Jesus ends this statement in Matthew 6:6 by promising that when we seek God in secret, He will reward us openly. What is our reward? The reward is the explosive joy we experience as we fulfill our daily destiny with the Lord. If we continue in the secret place with the Lord, we will start to grow closer and closer to Him. We will find out more and more each day who we are in Christ. As we continue to grow in our personal identity through intimacy with the Lord, our destiny will be unlocked at a greater measure every day. I encourage you every day to have a set time that you, just as this scripture says, go into your room, shut your door and seek the face of God the Father. 11/13/2024 10:03 AM

Northeast Texans pack Region D meeting in opposition to Marvin Nichols Reservoir

Northeast Texans pack Region D meeting in opposition to Marvin Nichols Reservoir

Close to 300 people packed the meeting room at the Region 8 Service Center last week in Pittsburg to listen to presentations and voice their concerns over the proposed Marvin Nichols Reservoir in the Sulphur River Basin of Northeast Texas, and to oppose its inclusion in the 2027 Texas State Water Plan. That number included Region D board members and a group from Region C. Experts at the meeting told the Tribune that the fact that Region C members attended suggests that the Marvin Nichols issue is getting more statewide and DFW attention. 11/06/2024 10:08 AM
