The greatest reality of history, is the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. When the two women called Mary came to the tomb on the morning after Christ rose, they were greeted by an angel of the Lord with these words:“
He is not here; for He is risen as He said, Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead …..” (Matthew 28:6-7).
From all over the world, long lines of visitors wait …
O Lord my God, in You I put my trust; Save me from all those who persecute me; And deliver me, 2 Lest they tear me like a lion, Rending me in pieces, while there is none to deliver. 3 O Lord my God, if I have done this: If there is iniquity in my hands, 4 If I have repaid evil to him who was at peace with me, Or have plundered my enemy without cause, 5 Let the enemy pursue me and overtake me; Yes, let him trample …
(Psalm 7:1-8)…..O Lord my God, in You I put my trust; save me from all those who persecute me; and deliver me, 2 Lest they tear me like a lion, rending me in pieces, while there is none to deliver. 3 O Lord my God, if I have done this: If there is iniquity in my hands, 4 If I have repaid evil to him who was at peace with me, or have plundered my enemy without cause, 5 Let the enemy pursue me and overtake me; yes, let him …
In (Matthew 24:36) – Jesus speaks of the remarkable event of His return to the point that His second coming will be completely unpredictable…….“But of the day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” This unpredictable event is underscored heavily in the additional warning he gives the disciples in (Matthew 24:42-44)…..”Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the householder had known in what part of the …
The mistreatment we might receive from people around us can stir up many emotions in us. We might not say anything, we might hate, we might get angry, we might even try to take matters into our own hands forcefully deal with the problem. But if we find ourselves ever mistreated by another, it is not our job to defend ourselves, it is God’s (Romans 12:17-21). I have talked to many people that have felt like life is not so great for them, where they feel un-appreciated in their …
As you rise and shine this morning, don’t start your day without acknowledging your Lord and Savior with thanksgiving. What a blessing to start your day with gratitude in your heart. Here are some suggestions provided by David in (Psalm 103:1-5).
(Exodus 20:3)…..”You shall have no other gods before Me.” People can lose perspective and put other things before God, such as wealth, success, pleasure, family, or even self, which has been my downfall at times in life. But a wise person will always put God first, (Proverbs 3:6)…..In everything you do, put God first, and he will direct you and crown your efforts with success. Why should you and I put God first in our life? First, because God is worthy. He deserves first place. God is perfect! God is …
Praising God is one of the foremost commands and privileges we have as believers in Jesus Christ. He Himself is to be the object of our praise (Psalm 139:14). For there should be praise of God from our own lips because of…….
This should be done…..
At Bible Study tonight I overheard something that ran shivers down my back. It was the definition of what grade school kids say of Christianity today. They refer to Christianity as “A right wing system of belief.” They are taught in this culture that there is no truth, and that God is dead, and faith in Him is useless. It is so sad that young children don’t know the God of Scripture. It is even more sad and frightening that the parents and grandparents are willing to let their children …
Being thankful is some thing we all struggle with from time to time, yet being thankful is something God wants from His saints (us) all the time. It is the sense of gratitude, being ready to acknowledge it. It is the sacrifice that should come from our lips (Psalm 116:17) (Hebrews 13:15). It is even the duty of the believer to be thankful for what God has done in the calling of another believer (saint) (2 Thessalonians 2:13-14). Paul was one who was continually thankful for what God …
