Today, How God Honors His People!
Today, How God Honors His People! I’m not sure if we realize how much God loves us and how he desires a relationship with us. Sin entered the world, but God gave His only Son as a sacrifice on the cross for our sins and to restore us back to Him. The Bible says that…

Today, Do Not Comply!
When I say do not comply, I mean do not comply to the devil’s tricks. Satan has corrupted man from the very beginning with Adam & Eve in the Garden of Eden. He knows when we have sinned and takes advantage of that through blackmail and fear. He is the Accuser. He tortures our souls…

Today, a Time to Speak Up!
The Book of Isaiah tells us to do what is right, seek justice, defend the fatherless, and plead for the widow. There is a time when we are obligated to speak up. We must speak up for the poor, the oppressed, and the unborn. Remember the Bible story about the Good Samaritan? A man going…

Today, the Power of Prayer!
I prayed as my church and catechism teachers taught me for much of my younger life. I often said the same words every night without thinking much about them. I joined a non-denominational Bible study in my hometown in my late twenties. There, everyone prayed aloud. I was astonished, but I practiced that method, so…

Today, Do you have Doubts?
As a child,I looked to the skies in wonder. I knew God was up there somewhere and that He loved me. As a young adult, my mind started having doubts about God. I asked myself, ‘Is there a God? Is it true? Or is it just a scam?’ It is the father of lies (Satan)…

Today, Seek the Lord!
The Bible says, “Those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.” We were created for a relationship with God, and God honors those who seek him with joy and gladness, wisdom and understanding, righteousness and hope. Those who search for the Lord will always find Him. “The Lord looks down from heaven on all…

Today, God’s Righteous Anger!
In the Bible, Jesus was righteously angry many times. The most prominent is when Jesus entered the temple area and drove out those selling and buying. He angrily said, “My house shall be a house of prayer, but you are making it a den of thieves.” The Bible also says, “Be angry, but do not…
