Devotional
By Frank Smith
Luke 1:31 “And shalt
call his name Jesus.”
The prophet Isaiah de
scribes Him as a wonderful
counselor, the mighty God
The Prince of Peace. I
personally would say Amen
to all these and say He’s a
wondertui savior to me.
Praise His name. The name
of Jesus really means
something to a Christian.
It is a way of life. It is the
way to deliverance for the
sinner. The Bible says every
knee will bow and every
tongue will confess Him as
Lord. Oh, it’s such a joy to
bow before Him now and
accept Him as my savior.
He'll make your life com
plete, and when this life is
over, you’ll hear Him
say Matt. 25:34
“Come ye blessed of my
Father, inherit the kingdom,
prepared for you from the
foundation of the world.”
Oh, friend, do you know
Him? Do you know Jesus as
your personal savior? If your
answer is no, why not bow
your head right now and ask
him to forgive your sins and
come into your heart right
now. Will you do it? God help
you to, is my prayer. Then
you’ll see there’s something
about that name Jesus.
Heaven will surely be worth
it all. May God richly bless
your life. Amen.

A jigsaw puzzle of a church was Billy’s project
for the afternoon. He worked diligently as the
church took form. But one section was missing—
the door. “A church has to have a door,” he said.
At last he found it.
As Billy grows older, he may discover that the
Church has many doors which can open to him:
