Today (January 7) I read Genesis 12:8-14:20 and Matthew 7:9-8:9. My favorite verses are:
Genesis 13:15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
Matthew 7:24-25 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
God makes really big promises. He didn’t offer Abraham a small plot of land; He gave him all the land he could see. And He didn’t just give it to him for his lifetime; it would go to his descendants as well. If we will listen to God and obey Him, we will be set on a strong foundation. The Lord Himself is the Rock on which Christians stand firm; nothing in this world can defeat us as long as we stay on the Rock.
About Me
- Dena
- Since retiring from public school teaching, I spend more time on church and Theatre activities. My church family is at Union Ridge Baptist near Nixa. I am married to Ron Boutwell, Founder of Stained Glass Theatre. We have two dogs and four cats to keep us company! I donate blood platelets twice each month at the Community Blood Center of the Ozarks because I want to be useful to others who need help. I am involved in the ministry of Stained Glass Theatre; I began in 2009 with a role in the Christmas production then served as an understudy in THE OUTPOURING. Since then, I have appeared in several more shows. I pray that God will allow me to be used of Him and witness for Him along with the rest of the SGT Family.
