Devotional Guide For the week of February 24, 2002 Why the Virgin Birth? Sharing with one another is a faith-builder. To Read: Deuteronomy 19-21 To Know: "For I the Lord do not change, therefore you, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed. From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from my statutes and have not kept them.  Return to me, and I will return to you, says the Lord of hosts…" (Malachi 3:6,7) Renewal is always needed in the church. This needed renewal does not skip certain denominations. Rather, it crosses denominational lines. For many years I served as Vice President of the United Church People for Biblical Witness. The U.C.P.B.W. was a grass roots organization for theological renewal in the United Church of Christ. We were dedicated to calling the churches back to the Bible. One day each year all the renewal executives met together for twenty-four hours at the Pittsburgh Airport Hotel. Each of us would share the details of what was taking place in our respective denominations. Without exception our stories were the same. A study of the past shows that over the centuries nothing much changes. In the days of Queen Elizabeth I, a group of reawakened Christians called Puritans banded together for church renewal. As long as it is today, the human heart will be prone to stray from the truth. Because God does not change, we can expect him to do again among us what he did amidst his people in the past. To Do: God has never changed his mind. His is an eternal purpose. What he has done he will do. The Lord will renew his work. Faith is the instrument through which God is pleased to do his will. When we renewal executives met to discover that every denomination was experiencing the same awakening our faith was strengthened. It is important that we share with one another what the Lord is doing in order to build up each other’s faith. To Ask: Father, keep reminding me of the importance of sharing with others what you are doing today.
