Christmas Timing

"In the sixth month of Elizabeth's pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee," Luke 1:26.  God sent Gabriel to Mary during Elizabeth's sixth month of pregnancy.  He didn't send Gabriel in Elizabeth's fifth month, or the seventh, but during the sixth.  This detail does not appear to add much to the record, but God still included it.  Elizabeth had went into seclusion for five months while pregnant, and Mary came to her during her sixth month.  Mary stayed with Elizabeth for three months.  God included these details for a reason.  The specific reason I do not [...]

Wait

2020-11-28T03:46:42+00:00

"Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD." Psalm 27:14.  Waiting on the Lord does not mean sitting idly by.  We are to still continue to do our jobs that God has given us.  What does it mean to wait on the Lord though?  Well, it means to be patient.  God's timing is not ours, and so we must be patient and not try to rush things.  It means we need to hope in the Lord, we wait on Him, we trust His guidance, not our own.  It means we stay calm and do not [...]

"Test me, LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind;" Psalm 26:2.  Sometimes I will read through the Psalms and try to make it like a prayer, but when I come to verse one, and verse two which is mentioned above, it is a tough pill to swallow.  Often times I hesitate, because I know that I am not perfect, I make mistakes every single day.  I know that in the past I have done things with the wrong intent.  It is only because of Christ that my sins are forgiven by God.  It is only by Christ that [...]

Election Day

2020-11-04T02:16:10+00:00

"He changes times and seasons; he deposes kings and raises up others.  He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning."  Daniel 2:21.  Today we have seen another election day, and although we will not know the results as soon as we normally would due to some extended voting, we can still be confident in this, whichever candidate is elected, God has allowed for that person to be elected.  God raises up kings, and He removes kings.  We will see who it is that God will allow to be in office.  Tonight, I'm not going to talk about who [...]

Voting

2020-10-29T02:09:32+00:00

In the past few days and weeks I've seen various hunters come out and give a message saying that we need to vote for the one who will protect hunting and conservation.  I've seen people come out and say we need to vote for the Bill of Rights.  There are all kinds of messages talking about who we should vote for.  I heard a Messianic Rabbi the other day, actually two I think, come out and say that above all else, we need to vote life.  I can't agree with them more.  We need to vote with the one who lines [...]

When working with compound bows, one thing you have to keep in check is the timing on the bow.  A compound bow has a string, and depending on what type of cam (the wheels on each end of the bow) it can have one or two cables, which can vary in type.  There are usually marks on the cams that line up with these cables called timing marks.  If the cable lines up, you're fine, if not, there's a problem.  On a compound bow, you need to make sure your cam timing is perfect, or else the whole system can be [...]

The Great Physician

2020-10-24T03:07:32+00:00

I want to thank you all again for praying for my arm.  My appointment today went great, and I'll share how it went later, but for now I want to ask you to pray for a good friend of mine.  He has been fighting one uphill battle after another and he has told me that he felt like Job in the Bible.  He messaged me a few days ago, and told me that he was going to have back surgery in four weeks, he would need pins and screws put in, and he would be out of commission for about three [...]

Sometimes we ask God why things happen, or why events played out the way they did.  Christians are also guilty of asking God why He waited to do a miracle.  God's timing is not always our timing, I've said it before, and I'll say it again, God's timing is not always our timing.  God has reasons for doing things when we either do not expect them, or we feel like we've been waiting for a while.  The number one reason is because He will receive more glory, for performing not only how, but when He does.  This should be the most [...]

Stories

2020-10-04T02:12:14+00:00

I saw where someone had written in a notebook, "God's still writing your story, stop trying to steal the pen, trust the author."  So often we have everything planned out, we know exactly what we are going to do, or so we think.  Often times we count our chickens before they hatch, or in other words, we make plans too far ahead of schedule.  We try to take the pen from the One who is writing our story.  God knows what He is doing.  He has a plan for our lives and He wants us to trust Him.  He wants us [...]

Gone with the Wind

2020-09-29T02:49:47+00:00

"Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away." Psalm 1:4.  In sin we looked for that thing that will fill that void inside of us.  We would try this or that, and it would be pleasing for the moment but it would not fill the void.  Nothing seemed to ever be enough, and no combination of things ever added up to the right amount to cure the problem.  We chased after different things to satisfy, but it was like we were being blown around by the wind with nothing to hold onto, no foundation to steady [...]
