Lamentations 3:21-24 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
22 It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24 The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
Here is something to hope in this morning, the mercy of God. Take note of what the Bible tells us of the mercy and compassion of […]
John 9:1-5 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. 4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when […]
Philippians 4:4-7 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. 5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. 6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
So many need the peace of God to rule in their hearts […]
John 4:14-24 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. 15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw. 16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. 17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus […]
Matthew 7:6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
Often I have thought about this verse and the context in which it is given. I do not want to take it out of context this morning but look at it in a little different light. Imagine if you would that God the Father is speaking here to God […]
Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life;
And he that winneth souls is wise.
The Bible tells us in quite a few places in the book of Proverbs who or what a fool is. But we do find as well what a wise person is. One that wins souls for Christ is wise. As Christians we ought to be doing all we can by the power of the Spirit of God to turn the lost […]
Ezekiel 34:24-26 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken it. 25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. 26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the […]
king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.
Who has your heart this morning? Can God tell others about you what He records of David in His Word? David was not a perfect man, not a sinless man. The faults of David are recorded in the Bible for all to see. Some wonder how God could use a man such […]
1 Corinthians 9:16-17 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel! 17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
Notice the will, the free will of Paul. “For if I do this thing willingly”. Man has a free will to decide […]
Psalm 33:11-15 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, The thoughts of his heart to all generations. 12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD;
And the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. 13 The LORD looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men. 14 From the place of his habitation he looketh Upon all the inhabitants of the earth. 15 He fashioneth their hearts alike;
He considereth all their works.
