Just Between Us
MAY 15 & 16, 2021
KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:
1 Samuel 20:42And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, forasmuch as we have sworn both of us in the name of the LORD, saying, The LORD be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever. And he arose and departed: and Jonathan went into the city.
THOUGHT ON GOD’S WORD:
Jonathan has said to David, “The LORD be between me and thee.” What did this mean? Do you see this as if God were now standing between them as a sort of invisible boundary line between them during their new separated living arrangements from this point on? Well friend, it is just the opposite. The LORD has become their only connection in which to recall and intercede for one another. No phones, no telegraph, or e-mail. Their only connection to one another was through the LORD.
With travel so easy today and people moving about so much, we have many Christian friends who have moved away. Yet, in our thoughts and prayers for them, they are as close as our Saviour is. They may move from your area. They might be gone for long spans of time. Nevertheless, with the LORD as our connection, they are never far away.
Have you ever walked into a church in which you have never been in before, maybe while traveling or a business trip, and almost immediately you felt at home? That is the connection of the LORD. A connection between you and another believer you have never met. It is the Holy Spirit binding hearts together. This is the same binding God uses over miles. The Holy Spirit in each of you is the same Holy Spirit in both of you. A connection that cannot be undone.
CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:
As you go through this day, think of an old Christian Friend who has moved or has been gone for a while. Maybe a Sunday School Teacher, Pastor, Christian Leader, Missionary, or Evangelist who you have not seen in a while. Maybe it is a Christian acquaintance from a former workplace, or someone from a school who you have not seen or heard from. Take them to the LORD today. Enjoy your time together in Him as you find the Lord… “Between Me and Thee.”

WHAT TO DO ON SUNDAY:
There will not be a Daily Devotion sent out on Sundays. Instead we encourage you to attend your church and listen intently to what God has prepared in the heart of your Pastor. Write down all the scriptures he uses in that message, then when you get home re-read those passages for today’s reading. God has given to your Pastor exactly what He desires for you on that day.
