Greetings, Precious Family:

May the Perfect Peace of the Lord rest, rule, and abide with you always.

I don’t know if I have ever told you all about how and when I am inspired to write a devotional for the week. Some weeks, the inspiration will come because the Holy Spirit puts a certain song on my heart, and other times, it will come because there is a Word that the Lord needs the Kingdom to hear.

Today, the devotional is inspired by a song the Holy Spirit put on my heart. The song ‘To God Be The Glory’. The version of the song is sung by Natalie Grant and Cece Winans. The song stops me in my tracks, and an automatic but spontaneous praise flows from my heart.

Question, Family. When do you hear the Holy Spirit the clearest? Where is your favorite place to spend time with God?

Holy Scriptures

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Tree of Life Version

¹⁶ Rejoice always,¹⁷ pray constantly,
¹⁸ in everything give thanks;
for this is God’s will for you in Messiah Yeshua.

Note:

Many people have not heard of the Tree of Life version of the Bible. This is one of my favorite translations because it was written in collaboration with Messianic Jewish and Christian Scholars.

The TLV is a new Bible translation, produced by Messianic Jewish and Christian scholars, which highlights the rich Hebrew roots of the Christian faith by restoring:

• the Jewish order of the books of the Old Testament
• the Jewish name of the Messiah, Yeshua
• reverence for the four-letter unspoken name of God
• Hebrew transliterated terms, such as shalom, shofar, and shabbat.

Song of Worship and Praise

Family, no matter what is going on around us, or even to us, there is always time to give thanks to the Lord for the things he has done.

I pray that today’s worship song blesses you. I love you all with the amazing and everlasting love of our Lord and Redeemer, Jesus, The Christ.

Your Sister,

Rev. Marcia Davis
