(Psalm 39:4-7)…. “Lord, make me to know my end, and what is the measure of my days.
That I may know how frail I am. Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths, and my age is as nothing before You; Certainly every man at his best state is but vapor. Selah Surely every man walks about like a shadow; Surely they busy themselves in vain; He heaps up riches, and does not know who will gather them.  “And now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in …

(Psalm 37:23-26)…..The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way. ²⁴ Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For the Lord upholds him with His hand. ²⁵ I have been young, and now am old; Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his descendants begging bread. ²⁶ He is ever merciful, and lends; And his descendants are blessed.

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord. That means that the steps of a good man are (led – established – guided – directed) by the Lord. We see …

What is it that awaits the righteous (the believer)? An inheritance that is said to be ours – intended for us – (Acts 20:32) (Galatians 3:18) (Colossians 3:24)  (Hebrews 9:13-15) (1 Peter 1:3-5). This inheritance is part of God’s predetermined will for us. So just as God predetermined that those in Christ would receive a place in His heavenly family (Ephesians 1:5), so He also predetermined that His sons/daughters would receive an inheritance, and get this, they would have it forever (Ephesians 1:11-14). How does one get …

(Romans 3:10-18)…..As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one; ¹¹ There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God. ¹² They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one.” ¹³ “Their throat is an open tomb; With their tongues they have practiced deceit”; “The poison of asps is under their lips”; ¹⁴ “Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.” ¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood; ¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways; ¹⁷ And the way of peace they have not known.” ¹⁸ “There is …

(Acts 26:8)….”Why should it be thought incredible by you that God raises the dead? Note the present tense of this verse. It does not say God previously raised the dead or God will only raise the dead in the future. Think about this…..our God is “I AM” – not “I WAS” or “I WILL BE” (Exodus 3:14). In other words, God is always the same, yesterday, today, and forever, and He can raise anyone from the dead at any time without breaking a sweat. (John 5:21)…..”For as the Father …

(Romans 8:32)…..He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

Most people approach prayer as an exercise in convincing God to help. They think they must twist God’s arm, or promise to do something, in order to get God to give them something. The New Testament paints a different picture. God not only is a willing giver, but has already given! He is not holding back on us in any way! When …

One of my favorite passages in God’s word is (Psalm 2). This Psalm speaks to the eternal, powerful, unchanging rule of God. (Psalm 2) is a Messianic Psalm, that is, it is a prophesy of Jesus Christ the Messiah hundreds of years before He was born into this world. This psalm not only spoke powerfully in the day it was written, but it speaks powerfully and prophetically to us as the Church today. No matter how dark the times, how wicked nations become, we can rest with assurance that Jesus …
