Author: Margarita

I'm Margaret (AKA "Margarita"). I am a Christian, wife, mother of three, and grandmother (AKA "Mimi") of three. My husband Stace and I met many, many years ago. We have had our share of up and downs but I'm forever grateful that he is the man God blessed me with. I am happy to report we have been married for 25 years. I love this space on the internet. I create blog posts about faith, my Christian Walk, and our life on the farm. I have learned from the Word of the Lord. I hope this space will give you encouragement and inspiration in your walk with God. I speak on topics that make some breathe a sigh of relief and make others get pretty uncomfortable. I believe that there is power in transparency and that as children of God, we shouldn't hold anything back. Yes, even those raw and messy parts of our Life's Journey. Over the last several years, I have wrestled with my purpose, struggled with various sins, survived some severe injuries, and was diagnosed with severe illnesses that have stopped me in my tracks. Although these dark times have been tough, my walk with God and family has proven to be so fulfilling and sweet, regardless of any earthly circumstance. Christ is enough! And I want you to see that He is enough for you too. The Lord has put it on my heart to share His Word with you. I'm truly honored to meet you and hope you'll introduce yourself to me as well.

WHO KEEPS HIS OATH EVEN WHEN IT HURTS / PSALMS 15:4

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Psalms 15:4

 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

WHO KEEPS HIS OATH EVEN WHEN IT HURTS / PSALMS 15:4

God puts the highest priority on personal integrity (character, honesty, honor, faithfulness) as it relates to keeping our promises and commitments – to God and to others (Deuteronomy 23:21-23). It is better not to make promises than to make and then break them. God is a person of His word, and He expects His followers to be people of their word. This was true in the Old Testament, and it is still true for New Testament believers. Few things give Christianity a bad reputation faster than those who claim to follow Christ but who have been known to lie and break their commitments. Some examples of how we break commitments include not paying our bills on time; not giving our best efforts at home, school or work; or not being honest in our relationships with others. We must follow through on our promises and commitments, even when they turn out to be more difficult than we expected.

WHO MAY DWELL IN YOUR SANCTURARY? PSALMS 15:1

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Psalms 15:1

Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

WHO MAY DWELL IN YOUR SANCTURARY? PSALMS 15:1

This psalm answers the question: “What sort of person experiences a deep relationship with God and a strong sense of His presence?” It suggests that we lose a sense of His presence – or may even cause God to withdraw His presence from our lives – through ungodly behavior, dishonesty and deceit, slander or selfishness. For this reason, we should examine our actions daily, confess and turn from our sins, strive to live for God’s approval (2 Timothy 2:15) and realize that to lose touch with God is to lose everything (1 John 1:6-7; 2:3-6; 3:21-24).

THE URIM AND THE THUMMIM / EXODUS 28:30

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 28:30

And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron’s heart, when he goeth in before the Lord: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the Lord continually.

THE URIM AND THE THUMMIM / EXODUS 28:30

Scripture does not explain these terms. The literal meaning may be “lights” and “perfections,” or “cursus” and “perfections.” They may have been used for “casting lots,” a method that was used to determine God’s will or to make decisions in particular situations (Leviticus 8:8; Numbers 27:21; Deuteronomy 33:8; 1 Samuel 28:6).

BEAR THE NAMES OF THE SONS OF ISRAEL / EXODUS 28:29

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 28:29

And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the Lord continually.

BEAR THE NAMES OF THE SONS OF ISRAEL / EXODUS 28:29

As high priest, Aaron represented the people of God when he entered the Holy Place (Exodus 28:12, 29). His actions symbolized how Jesus, our High Priest, enters heaven as our representative to His Father (Hebrews 9:24).

EPHOD / EXODUS 28:6

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 28:6

And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.

EPHOD / EXODUS 28:6

This was a loose-fitting, sleeveless garment extending to the knees. It was worn like an apron over the priest’s robe (Exodus 28:6-20; 39:1-21).

A BREASTPIECE / EXODUS 28:4

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 28:4

And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office.

A BREASTPIECE / EXODUS 28:4

This was a square chest-covering with twelve precious stones in four horizontal rows of three stones each. The names of Israel’s (Jacob’s) twelve sons were written on these stones (Exodus 28:15-21, 29-30).

AARON … SERVE ME AS PRIESTS / EXODUS 28:1

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 28:1

And take thou unto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from among the children of Israel, that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office, even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s sons.

AARON … SERVE ME AS PRIESTS / EXODUS 28:1

The Lord gave specific instructions about Aaron’s duties and services as the high priest and about the priesthood in general (Exodus 28-29). A priest was someone who served God as a representative of the people. The priest also served the people as a representative of God. 

  1. Priestly duties included burning the incense and supervising the lampstand and table of the bread of God’s presence. The priest offered sacrifices on the altar and blessed the people. They also gave just decisions when there were problems between any of the people (Numbers 5:5-31) and taught the law Nehemiah 8:7-8).
  2. The priests acted as mediators between the people and God (Exodus 28:12, 29-30). As mediators, they stood in the middle, speaking for God to His people (Jeremiah 33:20-26; Malachi 2:1-4; Malachi 2:7), as well as standing before God to seek His mercy for the people because of their sinfulness toward Him. In the process, they had to make atonement (covering and forgiveness for sins) for themselves as well as the rest of the people (Exodus 29:33; Hebrews 9:6-8). Their duties emphasized God’s holiness – the completeness, purity and perfection of God’s character (Exodus 28:38; Numbers 18:1).
  3. Under the new covenant, Jesus is the priest of God’s people. He put into effect and sealed the new covenant through His own death (Hebrews 9:15-22). He offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all humanity (Hebrews 9:23-28). Having lived as a man, Jesus relates to our struggles and understands our weaknesses (Hebrews 4:15). For that reason, He is able to represent us to God and continually cry out to His Father on our behalf (Hebrews 9:24). He is the One who makes our relationship with God complete (Hebrews 10:14). Without His sacrifice, we could never approach God the Father (Hebrews 4:16; 6:19-20:7:25; 10:19-22).

AS WORKING FOR THE LORD / COLOSSIANS 3:23-24

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Colossians 3:23-24

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

AS WORKING FOR THE LORD / COLOSSIANS 3:23-24

Paul encourages Christians to consider all of their efforts and labor as a service directly to the Lord. We must work as though Christ were our employer, knowing that all work performed “for the Lord” will someday be rewarded (Colossians 3:24; Ephesians 6:6-8).

WHATEVER YOU DO WHETHER IN WORD OR DEED / COLOSSIANS 3:17

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Colossians 3:17

 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

WHATEVER YOU DO WHETHER IN WORD OR DEED / COLOSSIANS 3:17

The Bible presents general principles that help Holy Spirit-led believers determine the rightness or wrongness of activities and behaviors not specifically mentioned in God’s Word. In everything that we say, do, think or enjoy, we should be guided by asking ourselves the following questions:

  1. Can it be done for God’s glory and honor (1 Corinthians 10:31; 1 Corinthians 10:23 – 11:1)?
  2. Can it be done “in the name of the Lord Jesus” (with a complete awareness of who He is, all He stands for and that you are to represent Him), and could you ask His blessing and approval on the activity (John 14:13)?
  3. Can it be done while truly giving thanks to God?
  4. Is it a Christlike action? Would Jesus do it (1 John 2:6)? 
  5. Could it cause another Christian to compromise his or her conscience and convictions and, at some point, weaken his or her devotion to Christ (1 Corinthians 8:1)?
  6. Will it strengthen or weaken my desire for spiritual things, God’s Word and prayer (Luke 8:14; Matthew 5:6)?
  7. Could it weaken or hinder my influence for Christ on others who do not know Him or who may look to me as an example of Christlike behavior (Matthew 5:13; Matthew 5:14-16)?
