February 24, 2012 I was reading in Revelation about the power and majesty of God, and of Jesus Christ, God the Son. Jesus, the Lamb of God, was the only one worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because he was slain, and with his blood he purchased men for God. And … Continue reading Praise the “I AM”

Praise Be Told
Jesus Christ, God the Son, came to earth, took on human flesh, suffered as we suffer, and was tempted as we are tempted, yet without sin. He was despised, rejected, persecuted, abandoned, denied, betrayed, beaten, mocked, and killed, although he had done no wrong. God made him who knew no sin to be sin for … Continue reading Praise Be Told
Our Eyes on Jesus
April 23, 2012 I was praying through some present situations in my life. I was feeling weary, and I was losing heart over the situations, so I prayed for renewed strength. Then, I pulled out the Bible study we were doing in our ladies’ Tuesday morning Bible study, and I read Hebrews 12:2-3: “Let us … Continue reading Our Eyes on Jesus
For Our Nation
War, politics, lies, betrayal, the murdering of innocents, our young men and women in uniform dying on a battlefield via men of power; takeovers of nations, riots and lawlessness, sin abounding, the church asleep or complacent for the most part; the gospel diluted, and do we even notice? Through all that is going on in … Continue reading For Our Nation

Only in Him
As Christ’s followers, we are not to be followers of humans, but followers of God. We are not supposed to turn to human beings for help, guidance, counsel, and direction in place of Jesus Christ, especially while ignoring the counsel of Scripture, making humans our gods. We are not to form alliances (yokes; partnerships) with … Continue reading Only in Him
Oh, What Joy!
“For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand. So, if they say to you, ‘Look, he is in the wilderness,’ do not go out. If they say, ‘Look, he is in the inner … Continue reading Oh, What Joy!
