I Samuel 8:7 (NKJV) “And the LORD said to Samuel, ‘Heed the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them.’” I have been thinking a good deal about authority lately. Where it comes from. […]
Hebrews 13:7 (NIV®) “Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.” I am grateful for those who have walked the Christian life ahead of me. Some are older in years. Some are older in their Christian walk. Some have passed
Romans 12:3 (NKJV) “For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.” Isn’t it amazing how scripture can read us? I hope

Romans 1:25 (NIV®) “They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator — who is forever praised. Amen” I have been noticing lately how our natural tendency is to substitute things in this world in exchange for God. I don’t think we normally notice it

Acts 3:13 (NKJV) “The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let Him go.” This is Peter talking to a large group of onlookers who were seeing a lame man who
Numbers 1:1a; 2a; 5; 45a; and 46 (NKJV) “Now the Lord spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai; ‘Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel’; ‘These are the names of the men who shall stand with you: from Reuben, Elizur the son of Shedeur’; So all who were numbered
John 8:31-32 (NIV®) “To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, ‘If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.’” I have been praying for some time now that truth would be revealed in our world. It seems there
John 15:4a (NKJV) “Abide in Me, and I in you.” Have you ever been at the end of a road and needed to start down a new one? That is where I have been these past few weeks. “Life events” have occurred and my path seems a little uncertain. I usually have some idea of
Song of Solomon 2:4 (NKJV) “He brought me to the banqueting house, And his banner over me was love.” I don’t claim to understand everything in scripture. My childhood Pastor used to tell us to “obey the parts you do understand, and before long you’ll understand the parts you don’t understand. Understand?”. That is kind
