Ps 45:7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
KJV
Why is it that there seems to so little joy in the life of many Christians? The above verse has the answer. For many there are three words that are missing from the verse in their lives. Know what they are? “And hatest wickedness”. We say that we love the Lord and at the same time […]

Ps 143:7 Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
KJV
Two simple words begin this verse “Hear me”. But how they are used tells a greater story. How many times have we used these same words in prayer, even if we don’t say them we mean them, “Hear me now Lord, hear me swiftly Lord and answer my prayers.” All of […] -

Ps 82:1-3 God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
KJV
No born again believer in Christ would think this verse true of themselves yet many times a day we prove it true of ourselves. How? Each time we make decisions based on the world’s values, on our own feelings, or on the morals of the present day we remove […] -

A great many things to remember on this Memorial Day. Remember all those who have sacrificed their lives to secure the freedom we enjoy today. Remember all those we have lost in the Lord and are in heaven today. Remember the goodness of God to us today. Remember the Lord Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for us today. Above all things take […] -

Acts 10:1-4 There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,

3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.

Matt 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
KJV
Have you ever wondered what makes God smile? The words smile or smiled, they are not found in the Bible, yet we know that things please God and one of them before us this morning. Jesus pleased the Father and I imagine brought a smile to the face of God when God was well pleased. It was the obedience […] -

Ps 91:1-4 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield […] -

Rom 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
KJV
Another shorter verse to meditate upon this morning. Indeed of God be for us. How does it come to be that God would be for me? First one needs to repent and turn to Christ for forgiveness of sin and eternal salvation. Now I am no longer an enemy of God but a child because I have been born […]
