Time To Dress Up “…and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” 1 Peter 5:5, NKJV Spiritual clothing can be just as important as the physical clothes we wear today. It is our spiritual clothes that God sees. We can dress up for God or unfortunately we can dress down for God. Dressing up for God will be the putting on of humility. Our scripture for today tells us what God thinks...

Don’t Make This Mistake “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me” Psalm 66:18, KJV Unconfessed sin is unforgiven sin and unforgiven sin is a problem for the Christian when it comes to prayer. Our scripture for today warns us that if we regard (hold) iniquity (sin) in our heart, the Lord will not hear our prayer. That is a pretty serious message for us from the word of God. We need to connect the dots here. If...

Some Things Cannot Be Changed “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.” Luke 21:33, NKJV. This modern day culture would love to change the word of God so it would fit the lifestyle that they refuse to let go of. Even satan, in the Garden of Eden, wanted Eve to doubt the reality of what she heard God say to her about what they were not to eat in the Garden. Eve gave in and went against God’s word and...

Real Joy “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.” John 15:11, NKJV We can find joy in many areas of the Christian life. There is joy in our salvation; there is joy in our baptism; there is joy when we read Bible; we can find joy in prayer. The joy that we find in the world is often joy that can be taken from us as quickly as the joy came to us. New possessions can bring us joy...

Problems Can Be Positive “It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes.” Psalm 119:71, NKJV I have been convinced for a long time that problems come into our life for a purpose and that God can take anything negative in our life and turn it into a positive. The verse for today strengthens my belief in that. David said it was good that he had been afflicted. If that was the end of this verse, this verse...

Praying In Jesus Name “Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.” John 16:24, NKJV Does it matter how we pray? I think it does because the Lord taught us how to pray in The Lord’s Prayer. That is not the only way we can pray but He gave us a pattern for our prayers. Does it matter in what name we pray or how we end our prayers? Some may disagree with me here, and that’s alright,...
