In Matthew 5:6 NLT we read, “God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be satisfied.” In John 7:37-38 we read, “Jesus stood and cried out, saying, ‘If anyone is thirsty, let him/her keep coming to Me and (let him/her keep drinking). He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, […]

“Gathering Together”
Years ago, I read about a man in his 80s who was mostly deaf, but he was in church every Sunday unless he was ill. Someone asked him why he was so faithful in attending when he could hardly hear anything that was taking place. His answer was – “I want the devil to know […]
7 Scriptures on Voting and Electing Leaders
Wise King Solomon was said to have written more than 3,000 proverbs. Many of these Bible verses can help us as we evaluate candidates for elected office. We can vote the best we know how, given all the information we can gather, and leave the results to the Lord. No matter who wins the election, God Almighty […]
“Committed to Christ”
I love reading the book of Acts because, on just about every page, we witness the awesome ministry of the Holy Spirit. In this meditation, I would like you to consider with me Acts 5:17-41. Earlier in the chapter (12-16), we read of the amazing ministry that Peter and other apostles were having. We read […]
“The Holy Spirit”
Every so often I want to introduce a meditation on the Holy Spirit because He is so important to all aspects of our lives. Let’s consider some of His attributes. He is the third member of the Trinity. A. The Holy Spirit is both a person and a spirit. In John 4:24 we read, “God is […]
“The Abounding Life”
In Philippians 1:9, Paul who was in prison prayed this request, “And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more …” One thing is certain. Being in prison may cut a man off from other men, but never from God. Being in prison did not dampen Paul’s faith. It did not […]
“Thoughts on Prayer”
Someone once said, “Satan trembles when he sees the weakest Christian on his/her knees in prayer.” I believe that is true because he knows that God loves to hear from us and that he has promised to “hear and answer” when we call on Him by faith. In Jeremiah 33:2-3 we have this promise from […]
“You Can’t be too Small for God to Use”
Do you have a low opinion of yourself? Do you feel like you have made little difference for God in this world? Do you feel like a nobody going nowhere? I have some great news for you — · Almighty God loves you. · Almighty God has a plan for your life. · You are not insignificant to […]
“Do Not Be Deceived”
We live in a day of false religions, false prophets, false politicians, and even false preachers. The information that was put forth during the pandemic about COVID-19 and the vaccine is now being found to be inaccurate, in many cases. The side effects that many have experienced have been terrible. The Apostle Paul, in his […]
“The Preciousness of Jesus”
In 1 Peter 2:6-7 we read, “Behold I lay in Zion, a Chief Cornerstone, elect and precious. And he who believes in Him will by no means be put to shame. Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious, but to those who are disobedient, (He is) the stone which the builders rejected. (He has) […]
