Thought For Today

God's Word


Listen Later

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Friday morning, the 27th of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in the Book of Isaiah 47:12:

“Stand now with your enchantments and the multitude of your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth—Perhaps you will be able to profit, perhaps you will prevail.”

The Lord speaking through Isaiah. Trust in your enchantments and maybe, maybe, you’ll profit by it. We don’t think so, do we? 

Then we go to the Book of Numbers 23:8:

“How shall I curse whom God has not cursed? And how shall I denounce whom the Lord has not denounced?”

We’re talking about the Children of Israel. Balak wanted the prophet Balaam to curse the Children of Israel, but he was not a fool. He said, ”How can I curse what God has not cursed and how can I denounce what the Lord has not denounced?”

I believe the Lord is saying to us today and this is a special word for certain people including myself. There is no security in the wisdom of the world. The is no security in fortune telling, old wives tales, horoscopes, etc. There is no security in lucky charms and there is no security in false prophets. Whoever comes and tells you something, ask them one question, ”Can you show me where it says that in the Bible?” And if they say, ”No, I can’t show you but somebody told me,” disregard it. It’s the word of God in these last days that will keep you and me from straying and going the wrong way. Even Balaam would not prophesy against the Lord.

If you look at Proverbs 3:5-6, we know it very well:

”Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”

So it doesn’t matter who it is. It doesn’t matter if it’s some person with a great reputation. If they cannot back it up with the word of God, please disregard it.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day. 
Goodbye.
