As the deer pants

"As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God." Psalm 42:1. Do you desire God's Word as much as you do rest after a hard day? God uses His Word to feed our souls, to give our souls comfort, to give us peace and correction when necessary. God's Word is our compass, it is the light for our path. We need to be in His Word every single day. We should desire His Word more than anything else. We should be in it as much as possible, the more we read it, the more [...]

Grace and Faith Col 2:6

"So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him," Colossians 2:6. I've written quite a few devotionals with this verse. I normally pose the question, how do we receive Christ? We receive Him by faith. We receive Jesus Christ as Lord by faith. Our salvation, is by grace through faith. We provide the faith, and God provides the grace. So as we continue to walk in Christ we need to stay faithful to Him, and God will give us the grace we need to do so. God knows that life will be hard [...]

Children of Promise

"Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise." Galatians 4:28. In his letter to the Galatians, Paul had to remind the Galatians that we are under grace, not the Law. Christ fulfilled the Law on our behalf, but there were people who were trying to get the Galatians to, in essence, bind themselves to the Law. Paul then talks about Sarah and Hagar. He said that, figuratively, Hagar represented Mt. Sinai, and that her children are slaves, but that Sarah represented Jerusalem, and her children are free. Mt. Sinai is where the Ten Commandments were given, and Paul [...]

Green Pastures and Rocky Roads

"He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters." Psalm 23:2 NIV. God will give us what we need, when we are stressed He will give us peace. His strength is made perfect in our weakness. He gives us grace that is sufficient for us to endure whatever may come our way. When God leads us to those green pastures, He never promised that the path would be easy. He promised that He would lead us and always be with us. When he leads us beside those quiet waters, the banks may be rocky and steep [...]

Gone with the Wind

Greg Hill2020-09-29T02:49:47+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 [...]

Unshakable

Greg Hill2020-09-13T03:28:20+00:00

"So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness." Colossians 2:6-7. I use these two verses quite often, and that is because I feel led to. As Christians we have to read and study God's Word. I cannot stress it enough. We have to dig deep into Christ. We have to let our roots grow deep. It is one thing to know about the Rock, but another to have Him be your foundation. You have [...]

Open doors

Greg Hill2020-09-08T03:14:16+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 [...]
