Fitting In
For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it! 2 Corinthians 11:4 If it appears we are more frequently hearing various versions of the Gospel, it’s because…

God Is Our Hope
“I will lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth” Psalms 121:1-2 Every day, we experience a range of emotions, many of them before lunch. Laughter can easily turn to mourning, mourning to joy, worry to optimism, and excitement…

Let Us Pray
Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not bear false witness,” “You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, “You shall love your neighbor as…

Strength To The Weary
“The everlasting God, the Lord,The Creator of the ends of the earth,Neither faints nor is weary.His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak,And to those who have no might He increases strength”. Isaiah 40:28b-29 There may be times when we or individuals we are talking to will roll our eyes when scripture like the one above is…

God’s Daily Gift to Humanity
Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into…

Eyes To See
As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. John 9:1-3 Individuals who are blind tend to develop heightened senses of…

Two Evils
Then the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, saying, “Thus says the Lord of hosts: Execute true justice, ‘show mercy and compassion everyone to his brother. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or the poor.Let none of you plan evil in his heart against his brother.’ “But they refused to heed, shrugged their shoulders, and stopped their…

Do The Right Thing
“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes,But the Lord weighs the hearts.” Proverbs 21:2 Have you ever sought advice from others, and they tell you to just do what’s in your heart; without knowing what is truly in your heart? Even when we know someone intimately, we still can never know the true depth of…

ENTANGLED
But avoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless. Reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition, knowing that such a person is warped and sinning, being self-condemned. Titus 3:9-11 Is the Church/Body of Christ to entangled in worldly issues? Are we too often overly focused on national and…

America’s Sect Problem
Photo by cottonbro studio on Pexels.com “For I say to you that unless your righteousness far surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven” Matthew 5:20 Congregational leaders and Christian influencers of our time have done well to convince the masses that a vote for one party or the other makes…

The world seems, in many ways to have changed, but has it? People seem to love for love’s sake without really knowing the true meaning of love. We tolerate each other for the sake of peace, not knowing what true peace is. Our smiles sometimes disguise the hidden pit of pain we feel and endure.

Ezekiel 14:12-20 12 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying: 13 “Son of man, when a land sins against Me by persistent unfaithfulness, I will stretch out My hand against it; I will cut off its supply of bread, send famine on it, and cut off man and beast from it. 14

If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned (John 15:6). There is a message that makes us feel good; a message that speaks to our inmost desires and points to a future

Also, I set watchmen over you, saying, “Listen to the sound of the trumpet!” But they said, “We will not listen” (Jer 6:17). Accompanying our ability to hear, is our choice to listen or ignore the messages we receive; the choice to believe or beguile what is being said. Listen carefully and you will hear

On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have set watchmen; all the day and all the night they shall never be silent. You who put the LORD in remembrance, take no rest (Isaiah 62:6 ESV). Silence dominate the halls of the church in America. The halls of our great churches echo niceties and prosperity messages; a

For every warning of judgement there is a message of hope and repentance. God wants us to turn from our sins and return to Him; He wants us to come before Him and say: Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your Lovingkindness; according to the multitude of Your tender mercies, blot out my

To an apostate, Godless, pridefull, self-righteous, self-reliant, and deceived people! The Mighty One, God the Lord, has spoken and called the earth from the rising of the sun to its going down. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God will shine forth. Our God shall come, and shall not keep silent; A fire shall

All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats (Matt 25:32). I have been considering the times when I didn’t speak up about something or when my presence somewhere gave a sense of approval to what is taking place.

“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. (Matthew 6:34 ESV) Ever had one of those days when you can’t seem to shake the anxiety and worry? This past weekend was just that for me. The worrying seemed to have overpowered

It is a good thing we do not have the ability to see into the future and to see how God unfolds His plans. If we did, we would no doubt spoil it but most of all we would not have that awe of God that He so richly deserves. This will not be a
