Psalm 1

Psalm 1

Psalm 1 gives us some excellent wisdom from God that we can only fully understand through the Revelation of our Lord and Savior, Jesus. Let’s walk through Psalm 1 in light of this awesome revelation and its absolute relevance for believers and warning for the ungodly today. Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. Psalm 1:1 Don’t Go There Jesus hung out with the worst sinners and was even accused…

The Anchor Holds

The Anchor Holds

The word ANCHOR creates a vivid image of STRENGTH.  Something METAL that HOLDS a BIG boat or ship from drifting off course. The anchor holds! This word ‘ANCHOR’ jumped off my desk calendar at me this week: According to Webster’s Dictionary: ·  ANCHOR:  a device usually of metal attached to a ship or boat by a cable and cast overboard to hold it in a particular place by means of a fluke that digs into the bottom. Something that serves to hold an object firmly! The Christian’s ANCHOR…

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday

Today is already a very happy birthday for me. It is actually already the best and most happy birthday I have ever had. Before I can tell you how awesome this day is already, I must tell you about the month-long battle that has been raging in my mind. Everybody is Going Through Something! First, I know that we are all at war. We are all going through something because Jesus Himself tells us that in this world we will…

Get Behind Me Satan

Get Behind Me Satan

Why did Jesus say “Get behind Me, Satan” when He was rebuking Peter? I thought God is love (1 John 4:8), and love is patient and kind (1 Corinthians 13:4-7)! But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get behind me Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men. Mark 8:33, Matthew 16:23 Love is Kind “Get behind me Satan!” was the kindest thing Jesus could have said to Peter! Peter was being deceived by the enemy and trying to get…

The Lord is Gracious

The Lord is Gracious

Peter tells us that the cares of this world are temporary, but the word of God is eternal (1 Peter 1:25). We can lay wrong thinking aside and taste that the Lord is gracious. Desire more of Him and His word like a newborn baby wants milk. Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious. 1 Peter 2:1-3 A Growing Baby Desires Milk The only time you will see a crying newborn baby…

My Salvation Story

My Salvation Story

I tried reading the Bible for years before I heard the gospel spelled out for me in a way that I could understand. The Bible did not make any sense to me, and I did not understand how to be saved or even what that meant! This is my salvation story. Various religious-looking people had crossed my path, but no one could help! They had no life in them to give me! They were religious hypocrites too. We were deceived!…

The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil

The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil

I have never told my children that if they play around my car or the stove I am going to kill them. I have lovingly warned them that the car or stove could harm them. It could even kill them! They needed to grow to a certain level of maturity or “of full age” before I could let them experience the full benefit of these wonderful tools without my loving supervision. I believe that is similar to the tree of…

Stop Fighting Addiction

Stop Fighting Addiction

Addiction is real. Whether it’s food, sex, drugs, alcohol, etc. It is miserable and it is real. The good news is that if you are struggling with addiction, you can stop fighting addiction today, right now. It’s Not All In Your Head When I began studying Dr. Jason Fung’s books about Diabetes and Obesity and other dietary diseases, I began finding out that our bodies react to our actions. When Dr. Fung explained that we are not fighting willpower but…

LUKE 10:18 SATAN FELL FROM HEAVEN.

LUKE 10:18 SATAN FELL FROM HEAVEN.

Who is Jesus talking to? In “Luke 10:18, Jesus was talking to the “the seventy” of His disciples that had “returned again with joy.” The disciples had said, “Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through your name,” Jesus is telling them, “That’s no big deal, Satan fell from heaven like lightning.” Satan is a defeated foe. Jesus tells these same disciples in the very next verse, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions,…

Behold the Lamb of God Which Takes Away the Sin of the World

Behold the Lamb of God Which Takes Away the Sin of the World

The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. John 1:29 He is Brought as a Lamb to the Slaughter In Isaiah 53:7, Jesus is described as a lamb being brought to the slaughter. Isaiah prophesied about Jesus hundreds of years before Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, and took away the sin of the world through His death, burial, and resurrection. Jesus is the Perfect Lamb of God And remember, when someone brought a lamb in the Old…
