Waiting for our heavenly body - 2025.01.10
2 Corinthians 5:1-10 (KJV)1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened:…

What is more important? - 2025.01.09
2 Chronicles 1:7-13 (KJV)7 In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee.8 And Solomon said unto God, Thou hast shewed great mercy unto David my father, and hast made me to reign in his stead.9 Now, O LORD God, let thy promise unto David my father be established: for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.10 Give me…

Joy in giving - 2025.01.08
1 Chronicles 29:9 (KJV) Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.

Guidance by open doors and peace - 2025.01.07
2 Corinthians 2:12-13 (KJV)12 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ’s gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,13 I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.

2 Corinthians 1:3-11 (KJV)3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.6 And…

Two types of people - 2025.01.05
1 Corinthians 16:22 (KJV) If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha. The NKJV renders Anathema Maranatha as “let him be accursed. O Lord, come!” There are two types of people with two different outcomes: Those who love the LORD Jesus Christ because of His great love and Those who do not love Him. The former are looking forward to the return of the LORD, for His…

Gather for edification - 2025.01.03
1 Corinthians 14:12 (KJV) Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church. Each one of us has gifts from GOD. He has given these to us not for outer own benefit but that others might benefit. Gifts can be used outside of the church to reach the lost and inside the church used to: edify, encourage, serve, teach. As we saw yesterday…

Good works with love - 2025.01.02
1 Corinthians 13:1-3 (ASV)1 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.2 And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.3 And if I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but…

Jesus Christ is LORD - 2025.01.01
1 Corinthians 12:3 (KJV) Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. Have a blessed 2025. The closer we come to the LORD’s return the more vigilant we need to be. The darkness and demonic activity in the world will increase further this year as it already has done in…

Where is our trust? - 2024.12.29
Psalms 146:3 (KJV) Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. We are advised not to trust and rely on people. People are not perfect and fail. In the end we do not have control over many things even when we make promises we might not be able to keep them because of circumstances. “James 4:13-15 (KJV) Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into…

[11] Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. [12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against…
