Today's Devotional: Apr. 19
Disappointed?
How would you define disappointment? According to Wikipedia, disappointment is a “feeling of dissatisfaction that follows the failure of expectations or hopes to manifest.” Dr. Bill Thrasher suggested another definition he once heard: “Disappointment is God’s way of dimming the glamour of the world and deepening our ability to enjoy Him.”[1]

THE SUPREME STUDY OF A LIFETIME
It’s Time to Meet The God You May Not Know
“In God We Trust” is the United States’ official motto, yet it’s hard to trust someone you do not know. Many people assume that knowing about God is enough, but to love God and to trust Him through these perilous times, we must know Him in a personal way. Given the current state of affairs, this may sound shocking, but nothing is more critical to our individual needs right now than to know God fully. The only way to make sense of our world is to immerse ourselves in the study of God and His incredible attributes—His knowledge, holiness, all-pervasive presence, unlimited power, perfect love, and all the other qualities that make Him who He is.
Are you ready to encounter God’s holiness? His presence? His power in your life? Let Dr. David Jeremiah take you on the journey from knowing about God to knowing Him intimately.
FIND CERTAIN HOPE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES
Living With Confidence in a Chaotic World
The signs are all around us: we are living in the Last Days. Each day seems to bring more chaos, more conflict… less hope. So what can we do about it?
Living With Confidence in a Chaotic World by Dr. David Jeremiah provides a roadmap to these prophetic times. It identifies ten practical strategies from the priceless counsel of God’s Word for living out a vibrant faith as we await Christ’s return. When we view our circumstances in light of that day, we can face any challenge and honor Christ through it all.
It’s time to set aside comfortable, armchair Christianity and live a courageous life with a renewed perspective of the Lord’s impending return.

The hallmark of the Christian life, even in turbulent times, is a sense of deep, inward peace. But how do we get there? By following the consistent, day-by-day steps found in God’s Word.

3 Keys to Confronting the Culture
Does today’s anti-Christian rhetoric make you mad? Do you ever get so fed up that you’d like to give someone a piece of your mind? The standards and convictions of Christianity place us at odds with our culture. So how can we maintain our Christian composure in a confrontational age?
We can learn from Jesus. He was neither weak nor rude. He spoke clearly and confidently, yet without venom or virulence. The apostle Peter, sometimes a loose cannon, learned that lesson well. In his first epistle, Peter instructed us to handle opposition as Jesus did. The theme of 1 Peter is to walk in His steps, to follow Christ’s example when facing hostility.

3 Ways to Overcome Loneliness
Recently a young, single woman quit her job in the city and moved back to her small hometown, abandoning her career and leaving a place of service in the church she had joined. When asked why, she replied, “I just got tired of eating supper alone.” No one is immune to it. Even one of the most brilliant men who ever lived, Albert Einstein, complained, “It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely.”1
…It’s not a sin to be alone; it is not a sin to experience loneliness. It only becomes a sin when we start indulging it and when we fail to obey the instruction of the Word of God, given to help us dispel loneliness from our lives. It isn’t wrong to visit loneliness, but it is wrong to move in and let loneliness take over our lives.

We all enjoy planning for our family vacations and getaways with loved ones. However, how many of us spend more time planning a vacation than we do planning for the future? Probably most of us. Why? Because planning for a vacation is fun, exciting, and brimming with anticipation. Planning for our future seems to be a bit different since it can involve fear, confusion, and uncertainty. But, if you plan for your future legacy in an organized way, it can be just as simple as planning for that wonderful vacation that is so exciting. You just need to get started, and we want to help.

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.
