God's Mercy and Grace

God’s Mercy and Grace

Psalm 34: 3-6 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His name together. I sought the LORD, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked unto Him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. David. along with several others, was hiding in the cave of Adullam. He had run…

You Can’t Do This Alone

Give your burdens to the Lord, and he will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall. Psalms‬ ‭55‬:‭22‬ One of the things I’ve always struggled with is asking for help. Asking for help is a sign of weakness. Asking for help can be placing a burden on someone else. Asking for help implies I don’t know what to do next. All of those things aren’t necessarily true but that is…

He Has Shown Thee, Oh Soul

God Has Shown Thee, My Soul God has shown thee, oh told thee, my soul What is good, what He wants, has not He? But to do what is just, show mercy, be kind, And with God on thy path walk humbly. God has spoken to thee through His Word, Does He not ever speak through His Law, His commands ever speak and teach us His ways, And tell us walk humbly with God. God has shown thee, Oh shows thee,…

Don't Get Too Comfortable (Amos 9:7-15)

Don’t simply believe you’re okay and anyone who disagrees with you is not okay.

“Are not you Israelites    the same to me as the Cushites?”declares the Lord.“Did I not bring Israel up from Egypt,    the Philistines from Caphtor    and the Arameans from Kir? “Surely the eyes of the Sovereign Lord    are on the sinful kingdom.I will destroy it    from the face of the earth.Yet I will not totally destroy    the descendants of Jacob,”declares the Lord.“For I will give the…

The Role of God the Father in Salvation

God the Father is seen as the initiator, planner, and orchestrator of the salvation of mankind. God the Father is loving, merciful, and kind, and “desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim 2:4), and is “not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance” (2 Pet 3:9). Salvation is necessary because of the problem of sin in the human race. All…

PRAY FOR WHO?

All throughout Jesus’ ministry, He constantly turned things upside down for those listening. The religious leaders at the time had grown distant from following the laws of God. Jesus’ teaching helped bring them back to the heart of the law, but He often did so through surprising ways. Most of us probably think we do a great job at loving other people. But if we’re being honest, most of us…

Where's The Restraint?

photo courtesy of David Garrison on Pexels I lost my temper the other day. This is not unusual, though I’m an adaptable person, going with the flow rather than expressing my anger in an outward way. I’m also a passionate person who sees a principle, a truth, being ignored and will respond with a heightened use of words full of exasperation. I get ticked. We were watching the news–doesn’t…

August 8th- Sadly, the family unit no longer carries the significance it did even a short time ago.

Ezekiel 20:16 because they rejected My ordinances, and as for My statutes, they did not walk in them; they even profaned My sabbaths, for their heart continually went after their idols. 17“Yet My eye spared them rather than destroying them, and I did not cause their annihilation in the wilderness. 18“I said to their children in the wilderness, ‘Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers or keep…

Ring of Fire

As I sit here humming Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire,” I can’t help but think about the many rings of fire that touch our lives. Johnny sang of a love so fierce it felt like flames. Couples wear rings that symbolize their promises to forever love each other through all of life’s seasons. A few months ago, we looked up and witnessed a different kind of fire – a solar eclipse creating a celestial…

Fallen, Yet Forgiven

24 Then David comforted his wife, Bathsheba, and went in to her and lay with her, and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. And the Lord loved him 25 and sent a message by Nathan the prophet. So he called his name Jedidiah, because of the Lord. 26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and took the royal city. 27 And Joab sent messengers to David and said, “I have fought…

God's Grace and Mercy

Joshua 9:24-27. And they answered Joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that the LORD thy God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you, therefore we were sore afraid of our lives because of you, and have done this thing And now, behold, we are in thine hand: as it seemeth good and right unto…

We are at war!

We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ. 2 Corinthians‬ ‭10‬:‭5‬ We are at war! This war isn’t going to destroy any buildings. This war won’t see the killing of innocent women and children. This war isn’t over borders and boundaries. This war is far more destructive, yet not really seen by anyone,…

A Garden And A Path

In January of this year (2023) the Lord was leading me to work on an album of original prayersongs tentatively titled Paths of Praise Christian Worship Songs. Suddenly He interrupted that work which I was completely focused on and switched directions. He asked me to create an album of traditional hymns as a gift for His children. When the Lord changes my focus on a project it completely humbles…

Tell The Truth

We are anchored in the truth of God and this anchor will hold in these crazy culturally chaotic times. God bless you and yours!

Now it’s time to be made new by every revelation that’s been given to you. And to be transformed as you embrace the glorious Christ-within as your new life and live in union with him! For God has re-created you all over again in his perfect righteousness, and you now belong to him in the realm of true holiness. So discard every form of dishonesty and lying so that you will be known as one who…

Be Merciful (Jonah 4:1-11)

Do you have a right to be angry?

Jonah was really upset and angry. So he prayed: Our Lord, I knew from the very beginning that you wouldn’t destroy Nineveh. That’s why I left my own country and headed for Spain. You are a kind and merciful God, and you are very patient. You always show love, and you don’t like to punish anyone. Now let me die! I’d be better off dead. The Lord replied, “What right do you have to be…

King David: An OT Example of Submission to God

David provides a good example of an OT believer who lived in regular submission to God. The Bible describes David as a man after God’s own heart (1 Sam 13:14; cf. Acts 13:22). David walked faithfully with the Lord and surrendered to His will. David was an obedient king, for the most part, and subsequent kings were measured by him (1 Ki 3:14; 9:4-5; 11:4-6, 31-34, 38; 14:7-8; 15:1-5; 11-15; 2 Ki…
