Protection in the War of Words
“Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord!” - Psalm 27:14 Have you ever been in a word war? That’s not a rare thing nowadays. Politics is front and center in a culture war ongoing today. In the political arena...
Reigning with Christ
And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. – Revelation 20:4 It doesn’t take a doctor of political science to look at governments, regardless of type, and see they are steeped in corruption, waste, injustices, and too frequently chaos. Revolutions...
March on Church!
“And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers” – Acts 2:42 The Church is under attack! The Church is in danger of losing its identity. The Church is getting bogged down and blocked by worldly...
Binding Satan
He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years – Revelation 20:2 Satan needs to be bound. Satan needs to be tripped up, tied up, and shut up. Yesterday, February 25th, the United States Senate voted...
Holy Anger
“Be angry, and do not sin” – Ephesians 4:26a I don’t know about you, but recent developments in our world have riled me up. Reading the news or watching it on TV or online in some form, has percolated an anger in me. Is that right? Is that wrong? Can a Christian be...
The Consummation of His Second Coming
Then he said to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’” And he said to me, “These are the true sayings of God.” – Revelation 19:9 Jesus is coming back! Anyone that has any respect for the Bible believes that truth. There may...
When All Else Fails
Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, and rely on horses, who trust in chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are very strong, but who do not look to the Holy One of Israel, nor seek the Lord! – Isaiah 31:1 Have you ever come to the end of...
Give Ear O Shepherd, Shine Forth!
Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, You who lead Joseph like a flock; You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth! – Psalms 80:1 June 26th, 2015 saw the legalizing of same sex marriage. Since that time the floodgates of sin seem to have been flung open. In four...
The Green-Eyed Monster
“And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird!” - Revelation 18:2 I used to like jello. When I was a...
His Own Love
“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” – Romans 5:8 What is God’s love like? That’s an interesting question. It presupposes that God exists and that He loves. Some people would say that God does not...
