Partnership in the Gospel
Philippians 1:3-6 ESV
I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you...
An Original Work / March 25, 2018
Based off Isaiah 53
Who has believed our message?
To whom has our Lord been revealed?
He had no beauty or majesty;
His looks, to none did appeal.
He was despised, rejected.
A man of much suff’ring and pain,
From whom people have hid their faces,
then looked...
Peter and John were apostles of Jesus Christ. One day they healed a man who had been lame from birth. The man whom they healed was now walking and leaping and praising God.
The people who witnessed this were filled with wonder and amazement at what had just happened to the man. So, Peter spoke...
There are times when we can get caught up in doing so many things, with constantly being on the go. It could be serving others, working, etc. At times we feel overwhelmed and may even ask the Lord for help. I've for sure been guilty of this.
I truly believe sitting/resting at His feet is the...
Our Lord Will Not Fail
Joshua 1:5-6 NASB
“No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life… I will be with you; I will not fail you or forsake you. Be strong and courageous...”
Let’s face it. We all have enemies. Our number one enemy is Satan, and he truly is the one behind...
Old Cross, New Cross
An Original Work / March 3, 2018
The old cross is the cross
On which our Savior died.
He took our sins upon himself,
And he was crucified.
He died upon that cross
To put our sins to death,
That we might die with him to sin
And live to righteousness.
The new cross, not...
A Parable
Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, but they refused to come.
“Then he sent some more servants and...
Greetings,
have you ever noticed the miracles that Jesus Christ did in the Gospels? You most probably have and even if you are atheist or agnostic or profess to be of some other religious faith or simply have not yet become a Christian, you more than likely would have heard of at least some of...
Do you know your body part? Do you know what gifts of the Spirit God has given to you? Do you know your specific assignment, your role within the body which God has given you to fulfill, to accomplish for his purposes?
These things of which I speak here are not necessarily to be equated with...
“I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Eph. 4:1-3 ESV

No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. 1 Corinthians 10:13 NIV
I often think that we view temptation as...

Have you sinned against God? We all have! Did you feel shame and guilt for what you did? Been there. Done that, too! If you didn’t, that’s a problem. Did you wish for a way out from under your yoke of slavery to sin? I did, and I hope you did, too, or that you do. Did someone share with you the...
The Lord Jesus led me to read John 15 (Select vv. ESV).
Are you in a true relationship with Jesus Christ? Are you genuinely saved from your sins, and bound for heaven? How do you know this? How can you be sure? What did Jesus Christ have to say on this subject?
“I am the true vine, and my...
The Lord Jesus led me to read Hebrews 2 (Select vv. ESV).
Jesus Christ, the Son of God (and God), and creator of the world, left his throne in heaven, came to earth, took on human flesh, and suffered like we suffer. He was also tempted in like manner as we are tempted, yet without sin. He...

The Lord Jesus led me to read John 1 (Select vv. NASB).
Jesus Christ, the Son of God (and God) is the Word of which this passage speaks. This fact will become clear as we near the end of this scripture.

The Lord Jesus led me to read Colossians 3 (vv. 1-4 NASB)
Therefore, if you have been raised up with Christ…
That word “if” is a big word, although it often goes unnoticed. When we see this word “if” show up in scripture, we should take notice, for it implies uncertainty, the unknown, or that...
Thursday, November 9, 2017, 6:28 p.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Trust and Obey.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Isaiah 2 (Quoting select vv. NASB).
