God or Greed?

September 29, 2015

Quote by Adrian Rogers

“One nation under God, or one nation under greed?”

One of the problems of our nation is that we have replaced our worship of God into a nation that goes after riches. Sadly even many Christians have fallen into the trap. 

Bigger houses, better cars, more money, fancy churches and the true worship of God is put aside because we don’t have time, we are too busy making money and trying to get ahead than to take time to read the Bible and pray everyday. If we want our nation to get back to God it has to start with each of us giving the Lord Jesus the time and worship He desires and deserves.

Psalms 33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

Jesus Is God

August 30, 2015

There is only one God, forever existent in three persons: Father, Son and the Holy Spirit.
The deity of our LORD Jesus Christ; His virgin birth; His sinless life; His miracles; His atoning death; His shed blood: His bodily resurrection; His ascension into Heaven and His personal return.

John 14:7 & 9  If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

God’s Names

August 23, 2015

As we honor God today, let us think about some of his wonderful names. Counselor, Prince of peace, Savior, Lily-of-the-valley, Lord, Jehovah and many more. The Bible says that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow. Some people use God’s name as a curse word and that should break a Christian’s heart to hear that. Let us be careful how we use His name.
Philippians 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

  

Awesome God

August 16, 2015

Psalms 33:8Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

On the Lord’s Day, He deserves all worship and praise. We serve an awesome God.

Awesome is a word we attribute to God and we should. It also has become a word that we use when we like something or feel that a person is extra special in our lives. 

Sometimes a Christian will admonish another for using the word awesome if they are not speaking of God, but the dictionary does not define that word to describe God only.

The Bible does not even have the word awesome in it and there are only three verses in the whole Bible that has the word awe. Let us love one another and not be critical of another Christian. We are to love the Lord with all our heart and our neighbor as ourselves.

So today let us worship our “Awesome” God in spirit and in truth.

LOVE

February 7, 2015

Next week is Valentine’s Day. We think of it as a day to show love to the person or persons we love. We send cards, candy, flowers or a gift to that loved one. Nothing wrong with expressing love to people we love. In fact we should show our love 365 days a year to everyone we hold dear.
The greatest love we can experience in life is to accept the love that God showed to us when He sent His Son, JESUS, to die on the cross and pay the price for our sins.
The next few days the focus will be on LOVE. The Bible has much to say about this subject.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

God Is

August 31, 2014

God is:
All knowing John 16:30
All powerful Luke 9:43
Always present Psalm 46:1
Always truthful Titus 1:2
Always the same Malachi 3:6

How great is our God!

November 28, 2012

God’s accuracy may be observed by the hatching of eggs….
For example:
The eggs of a potato bug hatch in 7 days
Those of a canary in 14 days
Those of a barnyard hen 21 days
The eggs of ducks and geese hatch in 28 days
Those of a mallard 35 days
The eggs of an ostrich and parrot in 42 days
(Notice that all these numbers are divisible by 7, the number of days in a week.)
More on how awesome God is in Creation next time.
