God Is Holding You “My times are in Your hand.” Psalm 31:15, NKJV.  We have 168 hours during the 7 day week. We have 10,080 minutes during that 7 day week. All 10,080 minutes of our life during that 7 day week is in the hands of God. Rest assured, “You Are In Good Hands”. We are reminded of that in our scripture for today found in Psalm 31:15.

In Psalm 57, David ask why He was in a wilderness exile by a wicked Saul....

Just Say No! “Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” James 4:7, NKJV. Anyone that has ever been on a diet can easily understand the concept of resisting. One must resist that favorite food or sweet if the diet is to ever work. Dealing with the devil works the same way.
