TROUBLED SOUL
Show me favor, Adonai, for I am in trouble. My eyes grow dim with anger, my soul and body as well. PSALM 32:10 We are all susceptible to anger that darkens our soul and body; anger that clouds our thinking. The decisions we make when we are angry and when we have no peace may create…

THE WAY
Yeshua said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life! No one comes to the Father except through Me” John 14:6 How does a dirt path form and why does it so often wind along, sometimes for reasons not clear to us? If, like me, you have had the privilege of seeing paths…

PROTECT YOUR TERRITORY
“From the time of Yochanan the Immerser until now, the Kingdom of Heaven has been suffering violence; yes, violent ones are trying to snatch it away” MATTHEW 11:12 Other Bible translations render the end of the above verse, “the violent take is by force.” These timeless words point to a dilemma that we still see…

DEFEATING DISCOURAGEMENT
“Five times I received “forty lashes less one” from the Jews. Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I was shipwrecked. I spent a night and a day in the open sea” 2 Corinthians 11:24-25 The Bible tells us of discouraging events—Cain’s struggle to overcoming jealousy, Abraham not being…

SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT
“Lay hold of my words in your heart, keep my commands and you will live!” Proverbs 4:4 The word of Adonai is to our spiritual being as healthy food is to our body. When we neglect to nourish our bodies, we will become frail which may lead to death. Likewise, neglecting the word of God will lead…

SPIRITUAL CHECKUP
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable—if there is any virtue and if there is anything worthy of praise—dwell on these things. —PHILIPPIANS 4:8 In what direction is the winds of life blowing you, and do these winds of life swaying your spiritual life. We each…

REJECT THE SPIRIT OF REJECTION
“Therefore, whoever rejects this teaching is rejecting not a man but God, indeed, the One who gives you the Ruach HaKodesh, which is his” 1 thessalonians 4:8 Rejection can be difficult, possibly even devastating to some people. Each of us may respond to rejection differently. Some people are able to shrug it off, while others…

CHILDREN OF GOD
“For all who are led by the Ruach Elohim, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall again into fear; rather, you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!””—Romans 8:14-15 The above scripture tells us a hard truth, one that we often don’t…

THE PERFECT MARRIAGE
“Let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. Let the husband fulfill his obligation to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband”—1 Corinthians 7:2-3 Marriage is not always easy! Not so profound a statement, is it? But why is marriage often so difficult? After all,…

“I see Him, but not now; I behold Him, but not near; A Star shall come out of Jacob; A Scepter shall rise out of Israel, And batter the brow of Moab, And destroy all the sons of tumult.” (Numbers 24:17, NKJV) Greed has led to the demise of many from ages past and is even more evident today. Balaam

1. Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful. For too many years of my life I walked in the counsel of the ungodly; in fact, I was ungodly. As I reflect on much of my

Someone asked me, “why does it matter that when know when Jesus returns, to what end do we look for signs?” How would you answer that question? Is that a question that you have even pondered? Tomorrow, or even the next breath, is promised to no one. That’s something we don’t often think about and

Instructions from Jeremiah 18: O America, can the Lord not do with you as he did to Israel and as a potter does with his clay? Look as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in His hand, O America! The instant the Lord speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom,

I’ve heard many Christian political commentators explaining why they vote the way they do while almost condemning those who vote the other way. Don’t each person have the same right to vote on what’s important to him or her? Listening to two professing Christian radio hosts explain why they voted for Mitt Romney in 2012
