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 …
What Nebuchadnezzar Teaches Us About God
Nebuchadnezzar was one of the most influential foreign kings in the biblical record. In world history, he was known as one of the greatest kings to ever live. Holy Scripture speaks of him in human terms as the “king of kings” (Dan. 2:37; 4:1; Ezek. 26:7). He is known to us as a man who …
Made for Another World
C.S. Lewis once wrote: If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world. We know that we were made for another world. Scripture teaches it. Our own experience testifies to it. The Psalmist wrote: As a deer pants …
Confidence
Are you a confident person? Often people are confident in their abilities, talents, intellect, etc. It is also the case that sometimes we have no confidence in ourselves and are afraid to step up or speak out (some deal with this more than others). The good news is, we don’t have to be confident in …
The Best Is Yet To Come!
We know we need some good news. In fact, we need as much good news as we can get! With 2020 behind us, we are desperate now to be told that something good, something better and brighter is on the way. Well…it is! But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, …
The End of the Matter
Stephen Covey famously suggested that one of the habits of highly effective people is that they “begin with the end in mind.” I was thinking of that phrase recently while studying the book of Ecclesiastes at the very time that we have started a brand new year. Seeing that this is January of 2021, it …
What A Year
What a year this has been! We have seen a lot and been through even more. To put it mildly, 2020 has been a challenge. Yet, here we are, ready to begin something brand new…a new year that has the potential to special. But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The …
