Help in Time of Sadness
Numerous are the occasions that may cause us to feel the emotion of sadness. Seeing someone we love make sinful choices will break our hearts. Seeing someone we love go away (either temporarily like moving or permanently like dying) will cause a well-spring of tears to overflow. Scripture prepares us to expect times of sadness …
To Be Noble
According to Philippians 4:8, whatever is NOBLE is listed second among the many things upon which we are to think (cf. NKJV). How often do we make the effort to focus on the noble? Do we even really know what the word means? After all, it isn’t a term that is used very often. Essentially, …
Where True Joy Is Found
In God’s Presence “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” (Ps. 16:11) If joy escapes you, are you seeking Him and His presence? In Obedience “Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.” …
Delight
To “delight” in something is to experience great pleasure. It is to be pleased by someone or something. Scripture tells us that God delights in His Son (cf. Isa. 42:1; Matt. 3:17). In like fashion, we should too! Knowing and following the Son of God, Jesus the Christ, should delight those of us who are …
A Beautiful Child
In Hebrews 11:23, the Bible says Moses’ parents hid him and protected his life “because they saw that the child was beautiful.” Beyond this particular circumstance with Moses, what could be said for all children? What makes for a beautiful child? Just the child itself—the mere existence of a little one made in the image …
Faith that Sings!
Someone has said that the prophet Habakkuk runs the gamut of emotions in his short book—from sobbing to singing! Yes, indeed. He begins with sobbing by crying out: “O, Lord, how long shall I cry for help, and you will not hear? Or cry to you ‘Violence!’ and you will not save?” (Hab. 1:2) The …
Being A Difference Maker
Most of us are pretty good at making excuses and rationalizing as to why we are not more vocal in sharing the truth of the Gospel of Jesus with others. “I don’t know enough!” “I wasn’t trained for this!” “That is someone else’s job!” The list goes on but you get the idea. The prophet …
The Truth
It seems so hard to trust people these days. Who can be counted on to tell us the truth? Here is what we know: Satan is a liar and the father of lies (John 8:44). Additionally, we know: It is impossible for God to lie (Hebrews 6:18). Therefore, we absolutely must spend more time listening …
The Lord Has Spoken
We have everything we need. We have the final word from God. We should not be on the hunt for new revelation. We should not be in the business of changing or “updating” the message that has been received. “His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through …
What Nebuchadnezzar Teaches Us About God
Nebuchadnezzar was one of the most influential foreign kings in the biblical record. In world history, he was known as one of the greatest kings to ever live. Holy Scripture speaks of him in human terms as the “king of kings” (Dan. 2:37; 4:1; Ezek. 26:7). He is known to us as a man who …
