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 […]

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 […] -

Ps 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
KJV
Another short verse this morning but one that lasts a lifetime for those willing to follow it. When will His Word not be sufficient, when will it not guide in a perfect way? This preacher will soon have been saved for fifty two years and he has never found God’s Word to be anything but sufficient to meet every need in His life. […] -

John 11:35 Jesus wept.
KJV
Another short sentence that says more than we could ever thank Him for. Jesus wept. Think of that for a moment and who Jesus was weeping for. It was not for Lazarus for Jesus knew He would raise Him from the grave. Not for Mary or Martha for Jesus knew their sorrow would be turned for joy. Who was Jesus weeping for? For those at that grave who were lost and facing an eternity in […] -

Matt 12:14-15 Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
15 But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
KJV
I see here a great victory as the leaders of the day moved to destroy Jesus. I don’t know of course how many of that great multitude that followed Jesus that day were truly saved but I am sure that […] -

Rev 5:11-12 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

KJV
I hear almost several times each day about this number. How many new […]
