Last year on Good Friday, I was awakened with the thought that I should look up Hebrews 9:6. So I opened my Bible and read, Now when these things had been thus prepared, the priests always went into the first part of the tabernacle, performing the services. I wondered...
As believers, we have a choice every single day. We can choose between the thoughts of this world or the thoughts of the world to come. That’s why Paul writes, With the Lord’s authority I say this: Live no longer as the Gentiles do, for they are hopelessly confused...
With all the problems we see in the world today, it’s easy to become entangled by worry and fear. So how do we break free? The answer is found in 1 John 4:18, which says, perfect love casts out fear. We get rid of fear through love. God doesn’t call us just to love...
It’s good to consider how we can persevere in faithfully serving the Lord. God tells us in Jeremiah 17:7-8: “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the...
