Blood Moons: Prepare to Meet Your Maker.

My friend I call Conspiracy Girl thought Blood Moons were exciting because they foretold the end of time. Does Armageddon sound exciting to you? For me, 2020 was the most dystopian year EVER, and I know it’s nothing compared to the true LAST DAYS. 

Amos foretold doom on many nations, but saved his scariest words for Israel. I like this line (quoted in so many movies):

Israel, Prepare to meet your God.” Amos 4:12.

He goes on to describe God in fearful, awesome terms. I want you to think about that. God is not your buddy or your pal. He loves you, yes, but He is the omnipotent Creator of the universe.

He is here, the One who forms the mountains, creates the wind, and reveals His thoughts to man, who makes dawn out of darkness… the One who made the Pleiades and Orion, who turns darkness into dawn and darkens day into night, who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out over the face of the land, Yahweh is His name, He brings destruction on the mighty and destroys their stronghold.” Amos 4:13, 5:8-9.

God is holy. He is bigger and higher and greater than us.

Take a few minutes to tell God how amazing He is. Praise Him for His power, grace, wisdom, love, justice and holiness. Block out all distractions and begin with this, say it over and over and over. Let it sink in:

“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come.” Revelation 4:8.

Dad's Daily Devotional began as text messages to my family. I wanted my teenagers to know their father was reading the Bible. But they were at school by then. Initially, I sent them a favorite verse or an insight based on what I read each day. That grew into drafting a devotional readng which I would send them via text. I work as an attorney and an adjunct professor, and recently wrote a book called HOW TO MAKE A'S.
