One Thing

There are many things competing for our attention. There are many destinations pleading for our arrival. There are many products and companies begging for our money. Yet only one voice matters. Only one destination is of any consequence. Only one being can inform us as to what to with/how to look at our money. Our …

The Way We Look At Others

“If looks could kill…” “Don’t look at me that way!” “Did you see the look she gave him?” The way we look at others says so much about us. Likewise, the way the Lord looks at us says so much about Him. As Allen recently guided us through another study of the parable of the …

To Be Noble

According to Philippians 4:8, whatever is NOBLE is listed second among the many things upon which we are to think (cf. NKJV). How often do we make the effort to focus on the noble? Do we even really know what the word means? After all, it isn’t a term that is used very often. Essentially, …

Where True Joy Is Found

In God’s Presence “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” (Ps. 16:11) If joy escapes you, are you seeking Him and His presence? In Obedience “Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.” …

Delight

To “delight” in something is to experience great pleasure. It is to be pleased by someone or something. Scripture tells us that God delights in His Son (cf. Isa. 42:1; Matt. 3:17).

What makes for a beautiful child? Just the child itself—the mere existence of a little one made in the image …

Faith that Sings!

Someone has said that the prophet Habakkuk runs the gamut of emotions in his short book—from sobbing to singing! Yes, indeed. He begins with sobbing by crying out: “O, Lord, how long shall I cry for help, and you will not hear? Or cry to you ‘Violence!’ and you will not save?” (Hab. 1:2) The …

Being A Difference Maker

Most of us are pretty good at making excuses and rationalizing as to why we are not more vocal in sharing the truth of the Gospel of Jesus with others. “I don’t know enough!” “I wasn’t trained for this!” “That is someone else’s job!” The list goes on but you get the idea. The prophet …

The Truth

It seems so hard to trust people these days. Who can be counted on to tell us the truth? Here is what we know: Satan is a liar and the father of lies (John 8:44). Additionally, we know: It is impossible for God to lie (Hebrews 6:18). Therefore, we absolutely must spend more time listening …

The Lord Has Spoken

We have everything we need. We have the final word from God. We should not be on the hunt for new revelation. We should not be in the business of changing or “updating” the message that has been received. “His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through …
