Can God Use Pigs to Preach His Message?
You’ve probably heard the story about the AWR chickens, and how God used them to help preach the gospel message. But can God also use pigs to spread His Word? Seems unlikely, right? Last week I shared the story of Michael and how pigs threatened his vegetable garden. But now let me tell you a different kind of pig story. It comes from the island of Mindanao. John and Jasmine ran a successful grocery store in Tampakan, but their prized possession was their pigs. Everything seemed to be going well for them, until one day they noticed the pigs were restless. This went on for days, with the animals unable to sleep day or night. Something was wrong, and no one seemed to know what to do . . . until someone suggested they put a radio in the pigsty to help soothe the animals with music. So John hooked up a radio and tuned it to his favorite rock music station. Does this story sound familiar? Because history seems to be repeating itself—except this time it’s not chickens but pigs! I think you know what happened next. The pigs became so agitated that their owners feared they were demon-possessed—just like the pigs in the Bible story. But then John remembered a Christian radio station he’d heard years ago. Could he still find it? Would it be able to help his pigs? Watch this video to see what happened next, and how God used a few pigs—and Adventist World Radio—to preach His message with amazing results! Yours in the Blessed Hope, Duane McKey

Thursday: Immovable Like Mount Zion
Daily Lesson for Thursday 14th of March 2024
Read Psalms 125:1-2. How are those who trust God portrayed here?
Those who trust in the Lord are compared to Mount Zion, the symbol of steadfastness and strength. The magnificent view of the mountains surrounding the city of Jerusalem inspired the psalmist to acknowledge the certainty of divine protection (Psalms 5:12, Psalms 32:7,10).

Unlike the mountains ruled by the wicked, which are being tossed into the seas (Psalms 46:2), the impressive durability of the mountain upon which Jerusalem was built inspires profound trust. The confidence in God’s protection becomes even bolder in the face of the painful reality in which evil seems to prevail so often. Yet, even amid that evil, God’s people can have hope.
Read Psalms 125:3-5. How are the righteous tempted? What is the lesson for us?
God’s children can be discouraged by the success of the wicked and, perhaps, tempted to follow their ways (Psalms 73:2-13, Psalms 94:3). The utmost stability of Mount Zion cannot secure those who depart from the Lord. The people are still given freedom to “put forth their hands unto iniquity” (Psalms 125:3) and “turn aside unto their crooked ways” (Psalms 125:5). The Lord is just and will judge the individuals who remain in rebellion along with other unrepentant sinners.
Here is the call for God’s people to remain immovable in faith and trust in the Lord, just as Mount Zion is their immovable refuge. That is, even when we don’t understand things, we can still trust in the goodness of God.
“The entrance of sin into the world, the incarnation of Christ, regeneration, the resurrection, and many other subjects presented in the Bible, are mysteries too deep for the human mind to explain, or even fully to comprehend. But we have no reason to doubt God’s word because we cannot understand the mysteries of His providence. . . . Everywhere are wonders beyond our ken. Should we then be surprised to find that in the spiritual world also there are mysteries that we cannot fathom? The difficulty lies solely in the weakness and narrowness of the human mind. God has given us in the Scriptures sufficient evidence of their divine character, and we are not to doubt His word because we cannot understand all the mysteries of His providence.”—Ellen G. White, Steps to Christ, pp. 106, 107.
