Today's Devotional: Jul. 5
Abba Father
The phrase “Father in heaven” occurs eleven times in the Bible—all but three of them in Matthew’s Gospel, all quoting the words of Jesus. Why was Matthew so focused on including this phrase from Jesus’ teaching? Because Matthew’s Gospel is the most Jewish of the four Gospels and the notion of God as a Father to Israel occurred often in the Old Testament. (See Deuteronomy 14:1; 32:6; Psalm 103:13; Jeremiah 3:4; 31:9; Hosea 11:1.)

Answers to Questions About Prayer
In Answers to Questions About Prayer, new from David Jeremiah, you will learn the answers to some of the most important questions you may have about talking to your Heavenly Father! This book is divided into five sections and makes it easy to find the answers to your questions. You will also find Prayers of Jesus to model and Scripture references for specific topics regarding prayer.
Prayer is so easy to do, and yet so often, we fail to go to God in prayer unless we are in a place of despair or trouble. When we fail to pray, we miss the tremendous blessing that comes from a daily conversation with our Creator. Prayer should not be left out of our everyday life. It is an instant connection—no waiting required—you can pray any time, any place, any day. And while we often have questions about prayer, God’s Word contains the answers.
If you have questions about prayer and its importance in the Christian life, this book will provide the answers.

The Book of Colossians
Christ Above All
For almost two thousand years, history’s most important question has been, Who was (and is) Jesus Christ? The question started in the first century A.D. and was answered by the writings later compiled into the New Testament. One of the churches where this question was raised was the church in Colossae—in today’s modern Turkey. Deceitful teachers had infiltrated the church and were promoting false doctrines about Christ. They said He was not the eternal, divine Son of God and Son of Man, but an inferior created being. The founder of that church, Epaphras, went to Rome to consult with the apostle Paul about this heresy. And Epaphras returned to Colossae with Paul’s answers and advice in the form of a letter to the Colossians.
In Christ Above All: The Book of Colossians, Dr. David Jeremiah goes verse by verse through Paul’s letter to the church at Colossae. Students of this letter will discover Paul’s two-part guide to answering history’s most important question: Who Jesus Christ is and how to live faithfully as His follower.
Let David Jeremiah be your guide as you explore and apply one of the most theologically important books in the New Testament.

How Can We Pray For You?
Our prayers matter—they can make all the difference in the world when we pray for the people around us. When we pray for others, we carry out His will and His blessings. We short circuit what God wants to do if we don't pray. Praying for others is a crucial aspect of spreading God’s love. By praying for others, we demonstrate love for them just as Christ calls us to.
For these reasons, we ask—how can we pray for you? The Turning Point team desires to be by your side in prayer—asking, seeking and knocking with you for your needs to be met—over the next thirty days.

The Perfect Prayer
Lord, Teach Us To Pray
As Christians, we can communicate directly with our Heavenly Father through prayer, but we often struggle to know how to pray and to be diligent in our prayers. When the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, He gave them, and us, the Lord’s Prayer to follow as an example. The Lord, Teach Us to Pray bookmark is a daily reminder to worship and praise God and to bring our requests to Him through prayer.

Motivational speakers and company conferences have their place, but human advice only goes so far. To really find spiritual focus, sit at the feet of the Lord Jesus. Nothing equals the motivation He gives for victorious living, and no one can equal His insight. Best of all, we don’t have to shell out thousands of dollars to hear Him. We can arrange a personal meeting every day.

Tour the Land of the Bible with Dr. David Jeremiah
After leading several trips to the land of the Bible, Israel has become one of my favorite places on earth. Donna and I are excited to return for another Turning Point Israel tour, March 19-29, 2019.
We’ll visit historical places like:
- Gethsemane
- The Sea of Galilee
- The Mount of Beatitudes
- And more
I’ll guide you through these sacred sites and others, teaching God’s Word as we retrace our Savior’s steps. Imagine seeing the same landscape Jesus saw, being baptized in the Jordan River, or singing at the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem.
These life experiences will change you forever.
