Your Personal Invitation to be Saved
and go to Heaven when your life on earth is over!!!
(1) God loves You!! Romans 5:8, But God commendeth his love
toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (2) Your Sin (or Disobedience to God) has Separated You from God!! Romans 5:12, Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all
men, for that all have sinned: (3) Only Jesus-Christ
can Forgive Your Sins!! Acts 4:12, Neither is there
salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. (4) Will You Receive Jesus-Christ as
Your Lord (or Authority) & Savior (or Rescuer)?? Mark 1:15, And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Repent
(Through Prayer) Sorrowfully tell God Your a Sinner, willing to turn from Your Sins and trust Jesus-Christ's shedding of Blood
and Death on the Cross for Full Payment of Your Sins and will Follow Him.

Our God is SovereignEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 30. In our text today we see the continuing story
of Egypt facing destruction due to its pride and idolatry. Egypt had built a great Army but God would bring them to their
knees. In making application we see the sovereignty of God in action and today the God of the Bible is still sovereign. He
is in complete control even though the enemies of God's people are raging wars and terror. How about you? Are you
worried about the constant fighting and terrorism we see today? Let us learn from our text today to see that our Lord
remains sovereign and in control and we need not worry for we know who is in control and who will deliver us. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible

day's text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 29. In our text today we see prophecy against
Egypt as they face judgment due to their treatment against the people of God and their paganism. In making application we
see that today many are treating the people of God unfairly with malice as they worship their false gods. How about you? Have
you made "gods" out of the things in your life? Let us learn from our text today to see the example Egypt and how
judgment will come to us when we make the things in our lives gods, lifting them up verses the Lord, causing the judgement
of the Lord to visit them.ture Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please

Pride's PathEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter
making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we
continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 28. In our text today we see the King of Tyre is condemned for as
a leader who fell as a result of pride, this King elevated himself to be a god. In making application we see the path
of pride showing us the that pride is self worship. Today in our self serving world most make themselves their own God and
find them selves as the King of Tyre resulting in failure. How about you? Are you your own god? Let us learn from our test
today and the example of the King of Tyre to see the path of pride is self worship and failure. Thank You, David

example of the destructive nature of pride as it comes before a fall. Thank You, David

by chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each
day's text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 25. In our text today we see messages against
the enemies of Judah. As we see these enemies coming against Israel we see the Lord intervene for Protection. Today

against Israel. In making application we see that the Lord protects and provides for His own. If we have been saved
we are adopted into the family of the Lord and will experience this same protection. How about you? Have you been saved?

People which should motivate us to serve and obey the Lord. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please

The Cooking Pot Each day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter
making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we
continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 24. In our text today we see the parable of the cooking pot as Ezekiel
gives the illustration of Jerusalem as a pot encrusted with sin that the people perceived as safety to a pot of destruction.
In making application we see that we still place our trust and security in sinful things believing that we
they will not face judgment or consequences for their sin but God will wash the pot in His timing. Knowing this truth
should cause sinners to come to repentance and give comfort to those who are serving the Lord. How about you? Do you
the truth about sin? Let us learn from our text today to see the example of the cooking pot to see that our sins are like
burnt on stains in a cooking pot and one day God will wash the cooking pot. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please

Being FaithfulEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 23. In our text today we see a parable of adultery
as Ezekiel compares Jerusalem to an unfaithful spouse as Israel coveted wealth and pleasure. In making application
we see that today many make wealth and pleasure their god verses the God of the Bible. Even some true Christians
fall into this trap making themselves an adultier to the Lord as Israel in our text today. How about you? Are
you faithful to the Lord and is it Him only that you serve? Let us learn from our text today and the example of Israel to
see that we cannot serve 2 masters so let us serve the Lord Jesus with all our heart soul and mind being faithful to
our Lord Jesus Christ. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible

text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 22. In our text today we see God listing Jerusalem's
sins from the leaders on down with His purpose to bring the sins of the people to light for the purpose of refining the people
of the Lord. In making application we see how our sins will be brought to the light and we will face judgment if we fail to
repent. Now our Lord is full of grace and mercy but He is a Lord of Holiness and Righteousness. How about you? Do you
believe that our Lord judges our sin? Let us learn from our text today to see that we serve a Holy God that loves us and we

A Purifying JudgementEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter
making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we
continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 21. In our text today we see Babylon attacking Judah as the Lord
allows judgments to come on Jerusalem with the goal of purifying them. In making application we see that the Lord still brings
judgment in our lives with the goal of purifying us, burning away that which is unholy to produce something that is Holy.
Something worthy of the Master a vessel of honor. How about you? Do you see the Lords refining and purifying fire that
is allowed in our lives. Let us learn from our text today and example the Lord left for us to learn that the Lord
will purify us with the goal of making us vessels of honor, fit for His Use. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please

There is HopeEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter
making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we
continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 20. In our text today we see a reminder of rebellion as Ezekiel gives
a panoramic view of Israel's history of rebellion and how God attempts to bring his people back despite their rebellion. In
making application we see a reason for hope as God has not given up on you despite how far you have rebelled against God.
Today is the day of salvation and we are not promised tomorrow but no matter how far we have found ourselves in sin, our Lord
is just a repetitive heart and prayer away. How about you? Are you far from God due to your sin? Let us learn from our text
today and the example of Israel to see that no matter how far we find ourselves in sin today we find hope in a God who will
forgive and save us. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please Contact Me with Any Questions or Comments,

Sins Destructive NatureEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 18. In our text today we see how each person
is responsible for his or her own sin. We see how sin complicates life and how we will face death as a result of our sin.
In making application we see the destructive nature of sin and how we are all sinners but we are accountable and
responsible for our own sin. This sin separate's us from a Holy God and is the reason why we must all be saved.
How about you? Do you see the destructive nature of sin? Let us learn from our text today and the example in Ezekiel
to see that we are responsible for our own sin and our sin separates us from a Holy God showing us that we must be saved. Thank You, David Burnette,

The Lord's DirectionEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter
making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we
continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 17. In our text today we see the riddle of the great eagle as
the Lord speaks to Jeremiah and Ezekiel with the same message in different regions. In making application we see that the
Lord still speaks to us through messages from men of God. Today we have Pastors who seek the Lord for direction for the local
Church. In these messages the Lord speaks a collective message individually to the body. How about you? Do you attend and
frequent your local Church? Let us learn from our text today to see how the Lord gives direction to Pastors who
preach messages at our local Church which should motivate us to attend and serve there. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please Contact Me with Any Questions or Comments,

A Beautiful BrideEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 16. In our text today we see Israel's loathsome
sins as they are chosen by the Lord but continue to be unfaithful. In making application we see that we who are saved
are part of the bride of Christ and as this bride should do our best to stay far away from sin. How about you? Do you
see yourself as part of the Church, this Bride of Christ? Let us learn from our text today and example of the Nation of Israel
to see that as saved people we are the Bride of Christ and being so let us stay far from sin to bring honor our Lord Jesus-Christ. Thank You, David Burnette,

Useless VinesEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter
making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we
continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 15. In our text today we see Jerusalem is stated as a useless
vine because of its sin it produces no fruit and is only good for the fire. In making application we see that when we are
saved we are engrafted in the vine of Jesus-Christ and if we allow Him to live in us He will produce fruit through the vine.
If we fill our lives with sin though we will make ourselves as vines useless and like Jerusalem here good for nothing. How
about you? Are you a useful vine? Let us learn from our text today to see that as children of God our decisions to sin or
obey God will affect the fruit in our lives making us Good Vines or Vines that are Useless. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please

Beware of IdolsEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 14. In our text today we see idolatry is condemned
as the elders worshipped idols in their heart but publicly went to temple, worshipped, and sacrificed. In making application
we see the many go to Church and participate in religious activities but their hearts are far from God as they worship the
idols they have allowed in their lives. How about you? Do you allow the idols of this world to gain your heart? Let us learn
from our text today and the example left for us here in Ezekiel to remember that the Lord condemns the idols we allow in our
lives so let us repent and worship the only true God, our Lord and Savior Jesus-Christ. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please

Faith in God's WordEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 12. In our text today we see Ezekiel demonstrating
the exile to the people of God yet they refused to believe due to their lack of faith. In making application we see that many
struggle with faith in the words of God from the Bible. The truth is that if it is written in the Bible we can believe and
stand on its words as truth. Even the things to come will come to pass which should cause us to walk by faith on the truth
in the Bible. How about you? Do you stand and make decisions on the truths of the Bible? Let us learn from our text today
and example of Ezekiel to remember that God's Word is truth and we are to live on the truths, making decisions, and living
for the Lord based on the promises found in the Bible. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible

Restoration follows JudgementEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 11. In our text today we see how God will regather Israel
after executing judgment on the wicked. In making application we see that the Loves us but will have to execute
judgment on our sins. Today many believe that God will overlook their sin but the truth is that sin is
sin, God will purge your sin through judgment, and God will regather and restore those who have faced judgment. How about
you? Do you see how God will restore those who go astray? Let us learn from our text today and the lives of Israel to see
that God must judge sin but keeps his promises to restore His People. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please

The Purging of SinEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 10. In our text today we see burning coals are scattered
over Jerusalem as God's perfect holiness demands judgment for sin. These coals of fire represent the purging of sin and
destruction of all those who refused to repent. In making application we see that we are living in the Church age and a
time of grace but some are mistaking Gods grace for a liberty to sin with no consequences. Nothing could be further from the
truth of the Word of God that says those who are not redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb will face judgment and eternal separation
from God in Hell. How about you? Do you realize the Holiness of God as it relates to your personal sin? Let us learn
from our text today and the example in Ezekiel to see that God is Holy and a Holy God will judge my sin. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible

Sin is SinEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 9. In our text today we see the death of idolaters
as the people continued in their sin, excusing and rationalizing their sin. Today many do the same even renaming their sin
to make them feel better and be socially acceptable. Everything from abortion, homosexuality, lying, cheating, etc. have been
given different names from a women's choice, alternative lifestyle, white lies, etc. In making application we see that we
need to be honest with ourselves and honest with God when it comes to sin. Sin is sin no matter how we spin it and it is our
sin that nailed Jesus to Cross, separating us from God and causing a need for us to be saved. How about you? Do you excuse
or rationalize your sin? Let us learn from our text today to remember that sin is sin no matter how we rationalize it, name
it, or dress it up and we must come to Jesus, repent of our sin, asking for forgiveness, accepting His grace, to be forgiven,
redeemed, and saved. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible Society Please

Getting Your Prayers ThroughEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 8. In our text today we see the sins of the people
as they continued in idolatry. What catches my eye is verse 18 that states how the Lord will not hear their cries or
prayers. In making application we see how our sin keeps the Lord from hearing and answering our prayers. Today many of us
wonder "why are my prayers going unanswered" when the truth is that our sin is keeping our prayers from being heard
in the throne of our Lord. How about you? Are you harboring your own sin that is hindering your prayers? Let us learn from
our text today to remember that our personal sin can keep our prayers from getting heard by a Holy God so we must humble ourselves
and examine our selves to repent of our own sin as we approach the throneroom of our Lord. Thank You, David

The Love of MoneyEach day we walk through the Bible chapter by
chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's
text. Today we continue the Book of Ezekiel with Chapter 7. In our text today we see God pouring out His anger
on Judah as they allowed their love of money to lead them into sin. In making application we see the truth of the love of
money being the root of all evil and where a mans treasure is, there will be their heart. Today many still place money before
the Lord and as a result their hearts come cold and distant. How about you? Do you have a "Love for money?"
Let us learn from our text today to see there is nothing wrong with money itself as it is a means for exchange but the "love
of money" is the root of all evil and when we fall into this mindset we will experience the judgment of God. Thank You, David Burnette, Director:U.S.Bible

work with my family David, Beverly, Joseph, Sarah, Lydia, John, Grace, James, & Faith. The Lord called me to this work
and we so blessed to a part of the the Belmont Baptist Church in
Conyers, Ga. U.S.A.
Our vision and mission is to distribute His Word in these last of the last days. Our Mission

is to simply depend on the Holy Spirit for direction and guidance as we inform the Body of Christ of the World Wide Bible
Shortage. As the Holy Spirit burdens believers we will print, purchase, and recycle older Bibles, then network with Ministries
and Missionaries to place Bibles in the hands of needy souls. A special thanks to our Friends at the Spread the Word
