Matt 11:25 (Revealed to Children) by Brenda Ferrie

13 Jul Matt 11:25 (Revealed to Children) by Brenda Ferrie

Welcome God now with this LIFE Group Devotion (FB), provided by LIFE Runners (FB).

At that time Jesus said, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants.” ~ Matt 11:25 (full readings)

Brenda’s Reflections: The heart of a child always amazes me. So often I take for granted what they can understand, assuming their simple minds won’t grasp the profoundness of God and His truth. But continually, God reminds me that He is the One who reveals truth–to whomsoever He chooses. And those simple minds and hearts are His favorite. Whether you have children of your own or have the opportunity to work with someone else’s, never hold back the truth of God because you assume they won’t understand. For it is not to “the wise and prudent” but to the “infants” that God reveals His majesty.

Faith Quote: And they were bringing even their babies to Him so that He would touch them, but when the disciples saw it, they began rebuking them. But Jesus called for them, saying,“Permit the children to come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it at all.” ~ Luke 18:15-17

Through Christ Our Lord,
Brenda

* Pray/Fast: Prayer connects us with God’s will & His miracles, changing us & helping others. Fast from things that take your eyes off Jesus. Those who pray together stay together, and close to God!
* Save Unborn (& family): Abortion reality (images)…#1 death cause (22% pregnancies). Prov 24:11 & Jer 1:5. “A great poverty that a child must die that you might live as you wish.” Mother Teresa.
* Evangelize:Make room for unbelievers & re-evangelization of self, by way of prayer (relationship) and following Christ’s example of love (service/sacrifice/mercy). Matt 28:19.
