Today's Daily Bible Booster
at
Peggie's Place!
by Peggie C. Bohanon
A daily cup of water from The Well, each workday, Monday through Friday-- to bring you His refreshing Word; to boost your spirit and start your day! Come to the Well and refresh your spirit, body and soul. There's enough for us all!
"Rise, Take Up Thy Bed and Walk"--the Web!
Down the Path to the Well--a thought to remember along the way
He had lain by the pool for years. It was said that an angel would stir the waters and if you got there FIRST, you would be whole. Great--but he had no one to put him into the pool! He was helpless--and hopeless. Into his dark, dismal world came the Son of God who would change night to day, darkness to light, weakness to strength--and He did!
He said to the paralyzed man, "Rise, take up thy bed and walk!"--and the man did just that. He got up, picked up his bed and walked away whole! Why? Because Jesus spoke healing to a hopeless situation...and He's still speaks healing in so-called "hopeless" situations today--you wouldn't believe WHERE!
"Rise, take up thy bed and walk"--the Web! Are you kidding? That awful, nasty, sinful, evil, scary, sinful world called the INTERNET? Christians need to steer clear of that mess.....oh, REALLY? NO! He's put you into the darkness, sin and evil of that place called the Internet...and you need not lie in an paralyzed state of helpless and hopeless despair, saying, "What can *I* do in such a mess of evil and corruption?"
Don't just sit immobile and curse the darkness--light a candle and let it SHINE, SHINE, SHINE! Rise up in the Name of the Lord, take the talent He's given you--whether it's making a Web page or simply sending an encouraging email to a hurting person--and walk the Web with it! Bring His love, joy and peace into the middle of a world filled with smut, crime, porn and evil.
Jesus says to you, "Will you walk the Web with me today? Will you bring MY love, joy and peace to a very needy world? Will you dare to use this tool for the glory of God?" YOU can carry His Light into the Net as His ambassador. Don't run from the evil...oh, sure, be cautious, but STAND in the face of darkness...HE stands with you and HE is the Light of the world! Now believe it, RISE AND SHINE in the Name of the Lord...walk the Web for Him and with Him--and watch what HE will do!
Delight in a Word from the Well--a refreshing in the Water of His Word
Draw from the Well--a prayer for renewing strength for this day
"Lord, we read and hear about the evil on the Net--and we know it's there. But we also know that You are there too! You're not afraid to pierce the darkness with the Light of Your Word and Your Name. You call us to be Your ambassadors and Lord, we answer the call. Use us in this new medium of technology to spread the Gospel to the ends of the earth, to rise up in Your Name and walk the Web in Your power and peace, In Jesus' Name, Amen."
