God’s warnings

When it comes to temptation, God always gives us a way to escape.  Even as far back as the Garden of Eden.  God even gave Cain a warning before he murdered his brother.  God said, "If you do what is right, will you not be accepted?  But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it." Genesis 4:7 NIV.  God was giving Cain a warning.  God desired that Cain would rule over sin, but just the opposite happened.  Cain fell for the temptation.  Instead of [...]

Fearing over Hearing

2020-09-11T03:25:02+00:00

"Once again David inquired of the LORD, and the LORD answered him, "Go down to Keilah, for I am going to give the Philistines into your hand."  1 Samuel 23:4.  When David heard of the Philistine attack against Keilah, he asked God if he should go and attack the Philistines.  God told David to go, but the men with David were afraid, and so David asked one more time if he and his men should go down to fight, and God again answered yes.  Sometimes we let fear get in the way of what God has said.  It doesn't even have [...]

Open doors

2020-09-08T03:14:16+00:00

We have all heard about God opening doors and closing doors.  The Bible talks about it in several different places, a few of which actually have to do with prophecy.  When we pray about God opening doors, we usually ask just that, that He would open a specific door, that He would make a way to something specific.  Sometimes Christians fail to remember to pray for God's Will to be done, and I'm guilty of it too, I've done it, so please don't misunderstand me.  However, I believe that when we are asking God to open a door, we should pray [...]

Trust in Him

2020-09-03T01:59:17+00:00

"You who fear him, trust in the LORD-he is their help and shield." Psalm 115:11.  When we are in trouble, we do not have to rely on ourselves.  When we face a trial, we are not alone.  In temptation we have someone Who can help us.  As God's child you do not need to fear.  Trust in the Lord, He is your shield.  He is your Helper, and more than that He is your Guide, your King, and your Father.  He will give you what you need to face the day and to walk the path set before you.  He will [...]

Doing your best

2020-09-01T03:11:25+00:00

Trying to do school work with a broken arm is very interesting.  I am trying to do what I can so I don't get behind too far, and my teachers have been helpful through this.  Then I started thinking, the physical trouble I'm having is similar to trouble we have as Christians.  We live for Christ, we do our best and then something comes along that starts to make things difficult.  It could be Satan trying to tempt you or a trial that is growing that seems too big.  Yet, our Teacher, our Master, our Savior will help us.  He will [...]

The man I want to be

2020-08-31T02:31:30+00:00

Since I had surgery on my arm I've had a night with almost no sleep, a night with good sleep, and last night which was a bit of both.  Last night wasn't all that bad though.  In the quiet of the night I was able to think well and pray about something that I had been thinking a little bit on over the past week.  I love archery, I would like to make a career of it, but at the same time, when I get back to it, I don't want to be so focused on it that I quit focusing [...]

Blessings in the broken pieces

2020-08-22T01:52:37+00:00

Zach Williams has a song out called, "There was Jesus" and part of the lyrics go, "Like a blessing buried in the broken pieces".  Well those lyrics are rather true for me right now.  I fractured my radius and ulna this afternoon, yet, despite the pain, I couldn't help but say, "Thank you Lord that I have a good vehicle to get to the hospital in."  "Thank you Lord that it was me and not someone else having to go through it right then (as in other family members or friends)".  "Thank you Lord that if it had to happen that [...]
