In Daniel 6:1-2 CSB we read, “Darius decided to appoint 120 satraps over the kingdom, stationed throughout the realm, and over them three administrators, including Daniel. These satraps would be accountable to them so the king would not be defrauded.” Darius was the third king of the Achaemenid Empire. He was Persian and reigned from […]

“Why We Need to Pray for Our Country”
Communism’s 45 goals were read into the Congressional Record by Congressman Albert S. Herlong Jr., a Democrat from Florida in 1963. The following is a list of 19 of their goals that have already been fulfilled. I have checked and confirmed the accuracy of this information. Our nation needs a heaven-sent revival. As you continue reading, please faithfully pray […]
“Learning to Pray”
In James 5:17-18 we read “Elijah was a human being as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the land. Then, he prayed again, and the sky gave rain and the land produced its fruit.” Elijah was a man […]
“Christ is our Only Hope”
Introduction In the book of Colossians, we are reminded of how vulnerable we are to the subtle cultural influences that bend the truth about our identity in Christ and our mission/purpose in this present life. Colossae was a small market town in Asia Minor (modern Turkey), about 100 miles from Ephesus. Paul didn’t start this […]
“Life with God’s Purpose”
Did you know that God has a plan and purpose for your life? Listen to what He said to Jeremiah in chapter 1, verse 5: “I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as My prophet to the nations.” (Those who […]
“Servant Leadership”
Do you have a servant’s heart? To such a person, no job is too small or beneath us — any way we can help is great! We realize we are here to serve. The person with a servant’s heart means not only put others’ needs ahead of our own but to serve with the right […]
“Experiencing God’s Faithfulness”
Elijah is one of my favorite Old Testament characters. We can learn so much about God, life, and ourselves as we read about him. In 1 Kings 17:1, he informed King Ahab that there would be no rain for several years, “except by my command.” That speaks of his confident relationship with God. The lack […]
“A Song of Joy”
Background: Scholars are not in agreement as to when and where David was when he wrote this Psalm. Some believe that it was at the dedication of his palace in Jerusalem, others at the dedication of the temple. In 2 Samuel 5:11 CSB, we read “King Hiram of Tyre sent envoys to David; he also […]
“More than a Carpenter”
Years ago, Josh McDowell wrote a wonderful little book titled “More Than a Carpenter.” If you haven’t read it, I would encourage you to get a copy. (There are a few in our Church Library … feel free to borrow.) It is also an excellent book to give to an unbeliever. If a person wants […]
