QUICK NAVIGATION

  • Saturday, February 7

    President Donald Trump is welcoming President Nasry Asfura of Honduras to his Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida, today.

    President Trump endorsed President Asfura in the Honduran election last year. President Asfura was inaugurated last month.

    The two presidents will discuss matters of mutual concern, including drug trafficking, trade and economics, immigration, and the security of the Western Hemisphere.

    In December, Secretary of State Marco Rubio commended then-President-Elect Asfura for his advocacy of U.S. strategic objectives, including advancing bilateral and regional security cooperation and strengthening economic ties between the two countries. 

    As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

    • For President Trump to seek God’s direction as he discusses regional security and economy with President Asfura.
    • For the two presidents as they consider collaboration on mutual concerns.
    • For wisdom for Secretary Rubio as he heads the State Department and interacts with foreign leaders.

Vantage Point Devotional
  • Christian Horsepower

    Let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works.  – Hebrews 10:24


    Draft horses are fascinating creatures that have been utilized throughout human history to help haul heavy loads. One horse can pull a load of around 8,000 pounds on its own. When you yoke two draft horses together, they can actually pull 24,000 pounds, three times the amount they could pull alone. Even more remarkable is that if these two horses have been trained together, they are actually able to pull four times as much weight as they do by themselves. What an amazing illustration of the power of working together!

    Christians were not meant to do life alone. Like draft horses, while they may be strong on their own through God’s Spirit, when two or more come together in union with Christ, their strength and abilities multiply. For this reason, the author of Hebrews instructed believers to gather together in community and to encourage each other to continue loving and doing good works. Love was not meant to be practiced in solitude. In fact, it can only be strengthened within a community. Community can be challenging, offering opportunities to learn to love and forgive in new and deeper ways. Refusing to meet with fellow believers is a withdrawal from the exercise that grows “muscles“ of love. The writer of today’s passage makes it clear that Christians need one another for regular encouragement, during both good and difficult times.

    Are you living more like the single draft horse right now in your life, working alone? Or do you resemble the pair of horses that are able to pull exponentially more together? Ask God to give you wisdom to know how to “pull with“ and encourage those around you in their faith. Pray over the nation’s governing officials, that they may learn how to act like draft horses, working together to accomplish amazing things for God.

    Recommended for further reading: Galatians 6:2-10

    Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor. For each will have to bear his own load.

    Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches. Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. 10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.
