CCI Opelika One Year Bible Reading 2010

5.12.10

1 Samuel 12-13:23

13:12 then I said, ‘The Philistines will now come down on me at Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to the LORD.’ Therefore I felt compelled, and offered a burnt offering.”

John - Saul described his reason for doing what he should not do as "I felt compelled", Lord let us realize when we are pressed not to allow it to compell us to do something outside of you plan...

John 7:1-30

7: 17 If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.

John - This is a GREAT lesson "If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God.." We often get so focused on doctrine in todays society, but if you SEEK Gods will, knowing doctrine will be the byproduct of that life, you will know where the words are coming from.

Psalm 108:1-13
Proverbs 15:4

15:4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life,
But perverseness in it breaks the spirit.

John - How beautifully the Proverb describes the wholesome words of a person.... TREE OF LIFE which was the key to eternal life, which brought health, healing, and its leaves we for the healing of the nations... God teach us to have WHOLESOME words...

  1. 1 Samuel 13:12 To prepare for battle on the battle field is a foolish thing.The wise take note and prepare well in advance.Saul's actions were unwise and untimely, being that he could have taken counsel and sought the Lord by way of his priest Samuel first.We must arm ourselves daily and have a spiritual battle plan already in place.

  2. John 7:17 I in Christ and he in me.. When my will comes into agreement with his will I begin to reap the results of what he promised I would have.Everything that Jesus spoke of concerning the Father and of the Kingdom can be clearly seen when I come into alignment with the Son.However, I can say his name repeatedly and follow his "rules" religiously, but until my will becomes his will darkness reigns in my life and vision is a disparity.
