Taps And Reveille

Taps is a bugle call played at dusk proclaiming the day is done

Reveille is a bugle call played at sunrise proclaiming wake up

     Winston Churchill planned his own funeral down to the last detail. According to his direction, following the benediction a bugler positioned high in the dome of a church played taps-the univeral signal that the day is over and ended. Then after the last note of taps, from the other side of the great dome, another bugler played Reveille-the universal signal for a new day beginning. 

     Remember friends, at death Taps may be played here on earth, but Reveille will instantly be played in heaven. 2 Corinthians 5:8 promises We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body (Taps) and to be present (Reveille) with the Lord. Jesus took away the sting of death for all saints; When any saint leaves this earth, they won't hear taps; they will hear Reveille

     Christians should never say goodbye at the graveside; There is hope for saints and they can say "I'll see you again my friend." Don't dread death; Taps may play here, but we will have Reveille there in heaven. Listen for the Reveille trumpet. Even so Come Lord Jesus Revelation 22:20.

     Friend reading this anywhere, you can hear Reveille instead of Taps by getting saved today. Just repent and confess Jesus to be your God, believing Jesus died for you on the cross, was buried, and rose again. You will escape death and hell and be blessed forevermore with eternal life, peace, and happiness.

Blessed Quotes From DL Moody, CT Studd, and George Muller

     When people asked DL Moody Why do you press so hard to get people saved? Don't you know that the world is getting to be a better place in which to live? Mr. Moody answered, "I picture the world as a wrecked vessel drawing nearer and nearer to destruction; and God gave me a lifeboat and said, Here, Moody, save all you can." Hallelujah DL Moody was faithful and won a million souls to Jesus. My favorite quote of DL Moody is "I've never met a man that gave me more trouble than myself." When you look at yourself in the mirror say "Now what are you up to today."  Deny yourself daily by staying in God's Word, going to church always, and taking time to pray daily.

     CT Studd was a very wealthy man that gave away all of his money to be a missionary in China, India, and Africa. CT Studd said "If Jesus Christ be God and He died for me, then there is no sacrifice too great for me to make for Him. I may never be what I wish to be for Christ, but one thing I can be is loyal; I want to hear Him say to me, Well done, thou good and faithful servant." CT Studd inherited millions of dollars from his family and gave it all away to help win souls for Jesus by blessing the ministries of DL Moody and George Muller. 

     Because of CT Studd's sacrifice, millions of souls were saved in China, India, and Africa. CT Studd said "Only one life twill soon be past, only what's done for Jesus Christ will last." He also said "Some want to live within the sound of church or chapel bell but I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of hell." Remember replace the Exit sign in your church with the words "You are now entering the mission field."

     George Muller said "There was a day that I utterly died to George Muller and his opinions, preferences, tastes, and will; died to the world, its approval or censure; and since then I have studied only to show myself approved unto God." George Muller trusted daily that Jesus would provide food for thousands of orphans that he cared for. One day when there was no food for breakfast, George Muller thanked Jesus by faith for food and milk; Then immediately a woman knocked at the door with enough bread and molasses to feed all the orphans. Then a farmer's wagon lost a wheel in the front of the orphanage that was carrying many bottles of milk. The farmer said that George Muller could take all the milk for the orphans.  

A Blessed Story About A Boy Picking Up Starfish

     A man was walking along a beach at sunset. He could see a young boy in the distance. The boy kept bending down, picking something up and throwing it into the water. The boy was picking up starfish one at a time that had been washed up and he was throwing them back into the water. 

     The man asked the boy what he was doing. The boy replied I am throwing these washed up starfish back into the ocean or else they will die. The man told the boy you can't possibly save them all; there are thousands on this beach; you can't possibly make a difference. The little boy smiled, bent down, and picked up another starfish and as he threw it back into the ocean he replied, I made a difference to that one.  

Jude 1:22 And of some have compassion making a difference

In this cold hard world be a difference maker

Have compassion on someone today

Be a soul winner for our Lord Jesus one at a time

One plants, one waters, but God gives the increase
