Continue reading →: Devotion: God is GodThe law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; – Psalm 19:7 NKJV. The law of the Lord is perfect, and the testimony of the Lord is sure. The Bible begins with the words, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” No explanation…

Continue reading →: Jeremiah: Parallels of the American ChurchFor the last few days, I have been reading the book of Jeremiah for my devotional time, and I have seen many parallels between ancient Israel and modern-day America. No, this is not a prophecy post; I am just going to share a few observations and thoughts from what I…

Continue reading →: Two kinds of Wisdom (James 3:13-18)What do you do when you don’t know what to do? Do you call a friend, do you pray, do you wing it? The answer may depend on the situation. Whatever you do, you want to make the right decision; you want to make a wise decision. How do you…

Continue reading →: Taming the Tongue (James 3:1-12)
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me. We may have said this as kids, but we know it’s not true; words do hurt. Ephesians 4:29 NKJV “Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace…

Continue reading →: Devotion: Life
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”Jeremiah 1:5 NKJV It’s amazing to think about these words to the Prophet Jeremiah. Before God formed Jeremiah in the womb, He had already set his course. Proverbs 16:9 tells us…

“It is better to trust in the Lord Than to put confidence in princes.” – Psalm 118:9 NKJV “Do not put your trust in princes, Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help.” – Psalm 146:3 NKJV How many times do we find ourselves putting our trust in a politician’s promises, a business…

Continue reading →: Living for EternityThe other day I was watching an episode of The Big Bang Theory. The guys had just bought a time machine from a movie. Penny saw it and told them they were pathetic and devoted too much time to toys and playing games. The only one bothered by it was…

Continue reading →: Devotion: Rest
“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”Matthew 11:28-30 NKJV Come to Me, were the first words…

Continue reading →: Devotion: Courage
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9 NKJV). Just as Joshua was commanded to be strong and courageous, Timothy was instructed not to let anyone look down on him because of…

Continue reading →: How’s Your Relationship?A relationship with Jesus is common vernacular in the church today. It is such a common phrase you probably do not give much thought to it. But have you ever stopped to ponder the meaning of the phrase? We all know the implication behind the phrase is salvation. After that,…

Continue reading →: Devotion: Persecution
“Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” – 2 Corinthians 12:10 NKJV Yesterday Grace Life Church in Alberta, Canada, met in an undisclosed location after the government put three fences around the church…

Continue reading →: Faith And Works (James 2:14-26)
Today we are looking at James 2:14-26 and the relationship between faith and works. Before we get to the text, I acknowledge that there is significant debate about this subject. Some say James contradicts the teachings of Paul, but Scripturally this cannot be so. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 NKJV “All Scripture is given by…

Continue reading →: PerspectiveThis morning I was thinking about how easy it is to believe God for things, yet when we go through hard times, our faith can be shaken, and we aren’t believing anymore. When we think about believing God, it’s typically believing God for something and not in the middle of…

Continue reading →: Praying The ScripturePrayer can be a hard thing to do for many of us. You may have had the experience of saying, just or Lord, every fourth word in prayer at church, and we have all had times when we did not know what to pray or how to pray during our…

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”Romans 12:2 NKJV The only way our minds can be renewed is by spending time in the Word. It’s easy for us as Christians…
Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old. ~ Matthew 13:52
