Reaching the Whole WorldEach
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 in the book of Acts Chapter 11. In our text today we see Peter defends
his preaching to Gentiles as he tells others of the conversion of Cornelius to see them shocked that Peter would eat with
Gentiles to see them later in the chapter rejoice that they came to Christ. In making application we see that we have been
instructed to reach the world with the Gospel, even those we find offensive. Today we have radical Muslims and hate groups
who need the Gospel just as much as our neighbor and we have been instructed to reach them too. How about you? Do you see
the need to reach the whole world with the Gospel? Let us learn from our text today and the conversion of Cornelius to see
that we have been instructed to reach the whole world with the Gospel, even those who we see as enemies of the faith because
faith cometh by hearing and hearing from the Word of God.

The Family of GodEach
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 in the book of Acts Chapter 10. In our text today we see the account of
Peter and Cornelius as Peter preaches at His house. Here we have 2 very different people as Peter was a Gentile and Cornelius
was a Jew yet God showed each of them that they were equal and each needed the other in the eyes of the Lord. In making application
we see that all believers of all races, tongues, and tribes are one family in the eyes of our Lord. We are all brothers and
sisters in Jesus-Christ if we have been born again. In making application we see that body, or Church, should work together
according to Bible to fulfill the Great Commission. How about you? Do you see that all believers are family in the eyes of
our Lord? Let us learn from out text today and the Life of Peter and Cornelius, who were very different socially in their
day, but their faith in Christ made them part of one family, brothers with one vision and purpose, to reach the world with
the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

God's Amazing GraceEach
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 in the book of Acts Chapter 9. In our text today we see the amazing conversion
of Saul to Paul on the Damascus Road. In making application we see the amazing grace of our Lord who loves sinners so much
that He extends grace to those who persecute Him. The truth is that all of us were enemies against the Lord before we were
saved. How about you? Have you been saved? Let us learn from our text today and the amazing grace of our Lord to see that
our Lord loves sinners, even those who persecute Him, and redeem the lost if we respond to the convicting power of the Holy
Spirit of God.

God Has a Plan for Your LifeEach
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 in the book of Acts Chapter 8. In our text today we see the Ministry of
Phillip as he has a successful Preaching Ministry to great crowds in Samaria. In making application we see that because Phillip
went where God sent him, Ethiopia was opened to the Gospel. We may not always understand God's plan for our life but if we
are obedient we will see His Plan for our life unveiled. How about you? Do you see that God has a plan for your life? Let
us learn from our text today and the life of Phillip to see that God has a plan for our lives and as we obey we will see His
Plan for our life unveiled even though we don't always understand what He is doing in our lives.

Facing Rejection for Serving HimEach
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 in the book of Acts Chapter 7. In our text today we see Stephen addressing
the Sanhedrin, speaking the words of Christ, to later be stoned and martyred for His faith. In making application we see that
serving the Lord will not always provide a life of ease, comfort, and pleasure. The World hated Jesus because He exposed their
sin and in our Christian lives today the World will not always treat you kindly. As we serve the Lord some will reject Christians
because they reject Him. How about you? Are you a Christian? Have you faced rejection? Let us learn from our text today and
the life of Steven to see that some will reject you as they reject Christ but the Lord has a bigger plan in motion so let
us serve Him no matter how the World receives His Message.

The Church is to Work as a TeamEach

can be made from each day's text. Today we continue in the book of Acts Chapter 6. In our text today we see the Lord's plan
for the growing Church as men are appointed to help in the growing Ministry of the Lord. In making application we see the
Lord's plan for the Church today with deacons and members who are given the responsibility of the Church under the instruction
of the Holy Spirit. Today we can work as a team to fulfill the service of the Church and reach the World with the Gospel.

see God's plan for the Church as those who are saved are to perform His Ministry in and through the local Church as we follow
the Holy Spirit of our Lord.

The Holy Spirit Works Through UsEach
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 in the book of Acts Chapter 5. In our text today we see the Works of the
Holy Spirit as Ananias and Sapphira are caught in a lie, many are healed, and the apostles meet opposition due the Holy Spirit's
workings. In making application we see that Holy Spirit works through us. He is real and His Power is exercised in us that
will produce many wonderful works but will bring opposition our way. How about you? Are you saved and indwelt with the Holy
Spirit? Let us learn from our text today and the example of the apostles to see that the Lord works in us and through us will
all power and authority doing many powerful works just as Jesus did here before He ascended to the Father.

can be made from each day's text. Today we continue in the book of Acts Chapter 3. In our text today we see Peter heals a
crippled beggar and preaches in the temple as he does the work of Christ. In making application we see that the Lord-Jesus
works in and through us doing His Will in this dispensation of the Church age. We are the Church and as the Church we do His

can be made from each day's text. Today we continue in the book of Acts Chapter 2. In our text today we see the Holy Spirit

The Power to Do His WillEach
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 start the book of Acts Chapter 1. In our text today we see
Peter's Ministry with the establishment of the Church as Jesus ascends to Heaven. What catches my eye are the Words
of Jesus who said that the Disciples would receive power from the Holy Ghost to be witnesses of the Good news of Jesus-Christ
both at home and abroad. In making application we see that this same Power is needed from the Holy Spirit to do the
work of Christ. Today many think your education or training will prepare you to Minister to others but it is the Holy
Spirit that will enable you to do the work of Christ. How about you? Do you have the Power of Jesus to do His Will
in your life? Let us learn from our text today and the Words of Jesus to see that it is His Spirit that give us His
Power to do what He calls us you to accomplish.

If You Love Jesus You Will Tell OthersEach 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 in the
book of John with Chapter 21. In our
text today we see Jesus appearing to
the disciples after the resurrection while
they are fishing and Jesus explains to
Peter if you really love me you will feed
my sheep. In making application we
see that Jesus explains that if we love
Him we will tell and instruct others of
the Good News of the Gospel. The truth
is that faith cometh by hearing and hearing
by the word of God. If we don't tell others they will not have the opportunity to be saved. How about you? Are you telling
others of Jesus? Let us learn from our text today and the final instructions of Jesus to Peter that John recorded before Jesus
ascended to heaven that if we Love Jesus we will tell others of the Gospel so they will have the opportunity to be saved.

Resurrection PowerEach 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 in the book of John with Chapter 20. In our text today we see John's witness and account of the Resurrection as Jesus
rises from the dead and appears to Mary, the disciples, and Thomas. In making application we see that the power that raised
Jesus from the dead is available for us today. We can do all things through Christ that strengthen us and nothing is impossible
for the Lord to accomplish in our life if it is according to His Will. How about you? Do you see the resurrection power that
is in Jesus-Christ? Let us learn from our text today and the Resurrection of Jesus as rises from the dead to see that our

Jesus Died So You Can LiveEach 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 in the book of John with Chapter 19. In our text today we John's account of the Crucifixion of the Lord Jesus as
Jesus is scourged, led away, placed on the cross, where He dies and is laid in a tomb. What catches my eye is the truth of
the Gospel. Jesus died to pay the price that man could not pay. It took the blood of God to satisfy the wrath of God toward
sinners. In making application we see the tremendous price that was paid for you and me. How about you? Have you been saved?
Let us learn from our text today and the Crucifixion to see that God wrapped His love in flesh and blood and willingly shed
His Blood and laid His life down on the Cross of Calvary so that you and I could have the opportunity to be saved.

We Are All GuiltyEach 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 in the book of John with Chapter 18. In our text today we see John's account of the days before the Crucifixion with
Jesus being betrayed and arrested, Annas questions Jesus, Peter denies knowing Jesus, Jesus stands trial before Pilate who
hands Jesus over to be crucified. What catches my eye is how the heart of the people was exposed in the betrayal of Jesus
as they let the guilty Barabbas go free to crucify the sinless lamb of God. In making application we see that we are Barabbas,
guilty and worthy of punishment for our sins, but Jesus died for us, if we will place our faith in Him. How about you? Do
you see yourself as Barabbas? Let us learn from our text today and the account of the Crucifixion to see that we are all guilty
sinners, worthy of punishment but Jesus died in our place so we could have eternal life if we simply place our faith in Him
and the finished work on Calvary.

believers. In making application we see the importance in prayer as Jesus examples for us to pray for ourselves, pray for
those close to us, and pray for the lost. Our Prayers are part of our Spiritual Armor as we fight the enemy with the Sword
(His Word) and Praying with all Prayer. How about you? Do you pray? Let us learn from our text today and example of Jesus
who shows us to pray, pray for ourselves, pray for those close to us, pray for the lost, and to pray with all prayer as the
Lord listens and answers our prayers according to His Will for our Lives.

us into all truth though the pages of the Bible. How about you? Are you hearing the instruction of the Lord? Let us learn

Does Your Life Produce Fruit?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 in the book of John with Chapter 15. In our text today we see Jesus teaching about the Vine and the branches. Jesus
also goes on to explain how others will hate them because of their hatred to Him. In making application we see the key to
living the Christian life of allowing the Lord to live in and through us in the power of the Holy Spirit. Just like a vine

Do You Love Jesus?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 in the book of John with Chapter 14. In our text today we see Jesus explains His deity, How He is the way to the
Father, and the coming of the Holy Spirit. What catches my eye is how the Lord explains that if you love Him you will keep
his words and commandments. In making application we see that we should keep the Word of God in our Heart, they are a lamp
unto our feet and a light unto our path. The weapon in Spiritual warfare and the comfort in our time of need. Even more keeping
His Word is a demonstration of our love to Him. How about you? Do you keep His Word in your heart? Let us lean from out text
today to see that the Word of God is very beneficial for our life but most of all if we keep the Words of Jesus in our heart
it shows Him how much we love Him.

before the last supper. In making application we see in the washing of feet Jesus shows us His way of being a leader is to
be a servant. Today, as Christians, we are to lead through the serving of others to show the true nature of the love of Jesus-Christ.
How about you? Do you serve others? Let us learn from our text today and the example of Jesus to see that His way of being
a leader is to serve others even as Jesus served us by going to the Cross and providing a way for us to be saved and be forgiven
of our Sin.

Above is my Personal Blog of teachings
and from our Dailly Devotions and Newsletters. Please leave any comments, questions, and concerns. Thank you for allowing
me to be your Director of the United States Bible Society, Inc. My name is David Burnette and I am so blessed to serve this
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 reach the 1/2 of the World who has never seen a Bible and the 75% of the World who does not own a Bible. Our Method
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
Bible College & Seminary for the Honorary Doctors of Divinity Degree. It a great honor to be associated with your University.
Please contact me with any need, question, or concerns. My Personal email is info@bibles4free.com
