Watchman Daily Devotional: God Has Shown Us Over and Over That He Is Faithful, One Little Test Comes Along and We Ask if He Is Really With Us or Not

King James Version And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not? Once more, the people became upset due to the lack of water. Once more, Moses was held responsible. They had not absorbed the final teaching from the miracle of daily provision. The provider of our needs is the Lord. This time, a new element was added to the situation. They inquired about the presence of the God among them. They witnessed and encountered the remarkable events that occurred in Egypt – from crossing the sea to witnessing water changing, experiencing fear, and receiving bread in the wilderness. After witnessing the glory of the LORD in the guiding cloud, they now question whether God…

When we want something, the best way to get it is to ask for it. But many times, we have unrealistic expectations that people will read our minds and somehow know what we desire without being told. So, we whine or brood and get angry at others when we don’t receive what we want. This daily devotional offers a biblical way to stop the whining. Christ is speaking in today’s Scripture. He stresses two points: God Will Respond to Your Request There is proof throughout the Scriptures that God answers the prayers of Christians who believe and have faith in Him. You may not get the answer you think you should, but He will answer according to His Will and Purpose for your life. No matter the outcome, you can show your appreciation and thanks for what you do

to God Must Believe That He Exists and That He Rewards Those Who Seek Him… KJV But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please himOr do things well pleasing in his sight; or any of the duties of religion, in an acceptable way; as prayer, praise, attendance on the word and ordinances, or any good works whatever; because such are without Christ, and without his Spirit; and have neither right principles, nor right ends: for this is not to be understood of the persons of God’s elect, as considered in Christ; in whom they are well pleasing to him before faith; being loved by him with…

Darkness. No One Will Succeed by Faith Alone.” -1 Samuel 2:9… Hebrews 11: 23 “By faith Moses was hidden by his parents for three months after his birth, because they saw that the child was beautiful; and they were not afraid of the king’s edict.” Faith. It’s a word we hear thrown around all the time. Keep the faith. Walking in faith. Having faith. So what is faith? Faith has several different definitions, But Only One That Matters, ‘Faith Has No Plan B‘… In this passage the phrase “by faith” is used seven times! The letter to the Hebrews was written to encourage Christians to live faithfully, following Christ in the midst of difficulty and persecution. With beautiful, poetic language the author describes God’s powerful work of salvation throughout history. The God of the Old Testament is the same God…

Edward O’Hara Fri 1/31/2020 9:58 AM Have you ever heard someone say that “If men could keep the law perfectly they would not need Jesus”? Because then they would have no sin? Is that statement really true? I mean, does this statement line up with what the Bible says? The answer is a resounding NO!! It does not agree with the Biblical narrative. But, is instead an example of the hypocritical righteousness of the Pharisees. And here’s just a few examples showing what a completely unBiblical conclusion a statement like that is. The question, Is the righteousness that is reckoned to us that we are considered to be when we believe in Jesus’ righteousness that is of the law? Does the Bible teach that the righteousness that we receive by faith is the righteousness that Jesus gained from His having…

Edward O’Hara Mon 4/20/2020 2:07 PM… Have you ever heard someone say becoming a Christian is to be “clothed with the righteousness of Christ”. I’ve heard that taught in regard to what happens when we are saved for as long as I can remember. But, what does that really mean? And more importantly does the Bible ever even actually say that? And even more importantly, What does this mean to you? In today’s message I will answer why is it so critically important that we understand this correctly. If you think it means that you are clothed with a righteousness that comes from Christ being the only one who was able to keep the law perfectly while living as a man on earth you are not alone. Because this is exactly what many in the pulpits teach. Even though any objective reading…

Edward O’Hara Fri 4/17/2020 9:39 AM… Like Daniel and his friends that would not eat the food, the Babylonian king offered them, so if we are truly saved knowing Jesus Christ, we should refuse to eat the food of the Babylonian king today. We must be doing as Jesus told the Israelites and work while it is a day for the night is coming when no man can work. What? You might be saying. How can we eat of the Babylonian king’s food? There is no king like that today! Oh, but there is. And so many eat from his table that those who call themselves the church are unrecognizable as the group of people that received the faith once delivered to the saints so many centuries ago. The great falling away is happening right in front of us and most not…

Can someone who has come to saving faith in Jesus “lose” or “walk away” from their salvation? Is there Biblical evidence for this? So many believe it is possible that it seems there must be scriptural evidence for it, right? Um… No. There is none. But, just in case you won’t take my word for it let’s see what God says about it in His word, ok? To begin with let’s look at something Jesus taught Israel that many wrongly interpret to mean that New Covenant believers can lose their salvation. It is found in John15 where we see Jesus teaching the disciples about who He is and why they need to believe it. He said, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every…

Edward O’Hara Thu 4/2/2020 2:35 PM… Please note that in this message there are no reasons given for Jesus’ death that have to do with the payment of a penalty for sin or any of its ramifications as so many who have been so deceived for so long teach. The reason for this is that none of that line of thinking comes from what the Bible says. So if you have had the misfortune of having been taught and have come to believe that death is a penalty for Adam’s sin, then pretty much everything you have believed about God, Jesus, and the atonement is a deception. And this message is specifically for you. Because that false teaching comes out of the false doctrines of the pagan gnostic Augustine who is the “doctor of theology” for the roman religion, and his disciples…

Edward O’Hara Sun 3/29/2020 3:05 PM… Paul tells those of us who are the true church that we are to judge those who are in the church in 1Cor.5:9-13. And not those that are without because God will judge them. God wants us to do this because the church is for the righteous. Not the unbeliever. But, have you noticed that most preachers speak of evil outside the church? Always speaking in their messages about the evil that is in the world and condemning them for it. I wonder why that is. Hmm? Don’t they realize that by judging among ourselves as Paul said we keep the church the church, and the world? So what could possibly be their motivation for judging those outside the church against Paul’s instructions? What drives them to do this? In this message, I m…
