Victory in Jesus

Victory in Jesus
2 Timothy 2:8-14 Paul pens this passage in prison proclaiming the power of the gospel presented through a power-filled soldier. Paul uses his military history and current interaction with the guards around him to write of the characteristics of a good soldier of Jesus Christ. This idea starts in verse 3 where Paul explains the hardships of a soldie...

Ride in Faith

Ride in Faith
2 Kings 13:14-21 In this passage, we read about King Joash. He was a king who did what was evil in the sight of the Lord. However, he did have a lot of respect for Elisha. This is the first crucial point to make mention of. Joash failed to realize where Elisha's power came from. This sounds familiar to someone in the New Testament, J...

God is Just

God is Just
2 Kings 9:1-10, 30-37 Jehu is appointed to be the next king of Israel, and he was commanded to kill Jezebel once and  for all and leave her to be eaten up by the dogs. Initially, this might cause us to wonder why God  would allow such intense violence to occur. Perhaps, this might lead us to contemplate on all the  lives that were en...

Miraculous Meals

Miraculous Meals
2 Kings 4:38-44 In today's passage, there were two accounts of where God used food to show His sovereignty and provision for the life of Elisha and the other prophets. In the first account, God shows His power by turning what seemed to be a life threating feast to a miraculous meal, but the miracles didn't stop there. The second account involv...

Hope in the Holy Spirit

Hope in the Holy Spirit
​ ​ Romans 8:1-11 Yesterday, Paul shared his frustrations with living in the flesh (sinful nature). In this passage, he says that even when he feels incapable of doing what is right, he does not lose hope because there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. This is because, those who are in Christ have received the Holy Spirit, who is the ...

Trust and Obey

Trust and Obey
Exodus 12:25-36   After waiting for several years in slavery, the Lord softened pharaoh's heart and let the Israelites go. At first, it is easy to try to wonder why God took so long, but now I realized that He was testing their faithfulness. They were consistent in doing what God commanded them to do. As they obeyed, they experienced God's pro...

Surprise!?

Surprise!?
  John 18:1-14 All of a sudden it seemed, Jesus' words (about abiding in The Father and doing His will) are interrupted by Judas and the arresting soldiers. But these are not two different worlds. This was Jesus' plan all along, the disciples just didn't see it coming. That's why Jesus said, "...shall I not drink the cup The Father has given m...

We Believe

We Believe
John 17:1-13 Believing the good news of God's love, closeness, and His reality in our lives is the truth that Jesus lived every day. The disciples were learning to believe this as are we. To realize that God is glorified by what He is doing through our lives is encouraging. God is seen in how we interact with others, in the things we do and say, an...

Taking God's Tools To Task

Taking God's Tools To Task
  John 16:23-33 Jesus said; "whatever you ask of the Father in my name, He will give it to you." And "I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf; for the Father, Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came from God." - Jesus is saying here we are to ask God the Father directly to give us all th...

Is Seeing Really Believing?

Is Seeing Really Believing?
John 14:7-14 Philip is one of those people who would say "seeing is believing". For Philip to truly believe that what Christ was saying is true, he would need tangible proof. For three years, the disciples had walked and talked with Jesus and witnessed Him perform several miracles. Was this not enough? Was being in the presence of Jesus and experie...

One Way

One Way
John 14:1-6 Not everybody is going to heaven, but rather only those who have trusted Jesus Christ. Acts 4:12- "And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." Jesus does not simply teach the way or point the way to heaven; He is the way. John 14:6- "Jesus said to him, I am t...

Don't Want to Waste My Life

Don't Want to Waste My Life
​ Ephesians 6:18-24 ​ What do you live for? Schools tell us to live for the books. Life Coaches tell us to live for the future. The TV tells us to live for ourselves. Our friends tell us to live for the moment. Some Churches tell us to live right. But what does all of this mean? If you are like me, there are many times where you have contemplated t...

Do You Have This Hope?

Do You Have This Hope?
Ephesians 3:1-7 Paul talks about the idea of being stewards of God's grace or being made a minister according to the gift of God's grace because of the gospel. In context with everything that Paul has been talking about so far, I am starting to understand that God desires to bring every nation together in unity in order to build His church. He desi...

Good Good Father

Good Good Father
​Ephesians 2:19-22 After reading today's passage my mind spoke one word, unity. Unity not in the sense of we are equal or one love as Bob Marley would sing, but one nation. Israel was God's chosen nation, but they rejected Jesus as their Savior, the promised one, and thus suffered the consequences. In this short passage, we see the unity of believe...

I Am Who I Am!

I Am Who I Am!
Exodus 3:13-22 OBSERVATION : 'I will send you to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt', but Moses HEARD and asked; 'Who am I that I should bring the people out of Egypt?' "God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM." And he said, "Say this to the people of Israel: 'I AM has sent me to you.'" (v.14) The name God gave Moses and the Israelites...

The God of Miracles
Exodus 1:1-14 Israel quickly becomes an incredibly strong nation after the death of Joseph. At this time, Israel was multiplying, however, a new Pharaoh rose to power in Egypt. As a result of this, he made sure that the Israelites would suffer, for as long as possible. He had slave masters over them, and forced them to work hard labor and treated t...

God's Power on Display

God's Power on Display
Psalm 114:1-8 ESV This is a short psalm remembering the salvation of the nation of Israel. The Lord led Israel out of Egypt under Moses with a powerful display of His might; The Red Sea dried up and later the Jordan River dried up to enter the Promised Land. When God moves for His people the earth trembles and rocks give water when needed. Applicat...

Ruled by The Word

John 12:44-50 ESV "I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness." (John 12:46) Jesus came to save the lost and to heal the blind. As a child, your mom might have told you that your actions have consequences. She may have also reminded you not to act foolishly or even quoted James 4:17, "so...

Believe in The Light!

christmas_faith
John 12:27-43 English Standard Version (ESV) What is the writer saying ? As I read this passage I realized that Jesus makes so many powerful and important statements in His exchanges with the crowd. "Walk in the light while you have the light...believe in the light, so you may be sons of light." There are two responses: Believing God's truth opens ...
