Corinthians 1:7-8 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. That’s right… Christ confirms believers, making them blameless. So many of us live our lives […]
Give Thanks for Believers
Colossians 1:3: We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, I pray daily for family, employees, customers. I pray for health, wisdom, favor, revival. I pray for leaders, church, community, and nation. However, this verse drives home that I also need to pray for my fellow […]
Hebrews 10:24-25 – Go to Church!
“And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” Many have returned to church in the wake of recent events. My encouragement […]
Romans 8:28 – Really? All things?
Romans 8:28 reads as follows: “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” Every day is a test. Can I live as if that is true? These types of blessings are truly wonderful. To be honest, ever day […]
Romans 1:16 – I am not ashamed
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Christianity has such humble beginnings. Christ, the God-man, died on the cross and rose to provide each of us with salvation. His […]
Psalm 2:4 – God Laughs
Continuing in Psalm 2 from last week. Verses 4-5 of Psalm 2 read as follows (KJV): He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. I’m thankful that conservatives showed class and restraint […]
Psalms 2:1 – The Heathen Rage
Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? Indeed, they rage. The reaction of the assassination of Charlie Kirk is appaling, and you can find evidence of this bad behavior on any social media platform. Many are celebrating the death of a man who simply wanted to talk things out. Some […]
Psalms 37:23 – God-ordained Trials
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.” All things are under God’s control, right down to the finest detail. The good man delights in this. It brings him peace, but also knows that troubled times are also under God’s control. We know that all things […]
1 Cor 16:13 – Act Like a Man!
1 Corinthians 16:13 reads: Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. I think this applies to you and I just as much as the early church in Corinth. It starts with an admonition to stand watch. We have enemies all around, and the devil comes to deceive. Whether we […]
Galatians 5:22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Introspection is a hard thing. Are there times I have not shown the fruits above? Perhaps I’ve done the opposite? Hate, anger, strife, quick temperedness, roughness, evil, lack of faith, boating, and exhibiting […]
