Word of the Day: Psalm 109:4

Word of the Day

Psalm 109:4 "In return for my love they act as my accusers; But I am in prayer". Many years ago in Seattle, Diana and I participated in a quiet Christian demonstration. What it was for isn't really important and probably today we wouldn't be involved, not because it's wrong, but since then we have learned that making a statement for Christ is much more effective one on o...

Word of the Day: Deuteronomy 33:27

Word of the Day

Deuteronomy 33:27 "The Eternal God is a dwelling place...." Moses gives his blessing to the sons of Israel in this chapter. His time is coming to an end. God has told Moses he won't be going in to the Promised Land, but does let him see it (Deuteronomy 34:4 "This is the land which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, 'I will give it to your descendants'; I have ...

Deuteronomy 31:8 "The Lord is the one who goes ahead of you; He will be with you. He will not fail you or forsake you". In Chapter 31 the Israelites are getting ready to cross the Jordan. They were going to have to face some adversaries. They are changing leadership. Moses is giving his last counsel and has just announced that he is getting old and will not be going with...

Word of the Day: Psalm 119:46

Word of the Day

Psalm 119:46 "I will also speak of Your testimonies before kings and shall not be ashamed." I was attending a meeting with about 15 of my contemporaries from around the country. We were sitting at tables formed in the shape of a horseshoe. During one of our breaks and as everyone was talking with each other, a person from across the room asked me what my secret was for s...

Word of the Day: Psalm 81:13

Word of the Day

Psalm 81:13 "Oh that my people would listen to Me, That Israel would walk in My ways!" I see God's desire for me - listen and obey Him. It sounds so easy, and maybe it should be. Sometimes there is a fight within me between doing what I know God says to do and what my human nature wants me to do. I love the listening part - being in the Word every morning, hearing and le...

Word of the Day: Deuteronomy 20:3-4

Word of the Day

Deuteronomy 20:3-4 "....Do not be afraid, or panic, or tremble before them, for the Lord your God is the one who goes with you...." I can remember a few years ago, a few of us guys had gotten together to go to a shopping mall. The plan was we would divide into groups of 2 and spend the evening by sharing the gospel with whomever we could. When this was first presented to...

Word of the Day: 1 Timothy 1:15-16

Word of the Day

1 Timothy 1:15-16 "15It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all. 16Yet for this reason I found mercy, so that in me as the foremost, Jesus Christ might demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those who would believe in Him for eternal life." Have you ever spok...

Word of the Day: 2 Peter 3:18

Word of the Day

2 Peter 3:18 "but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen." In this chapter Peter is warning the people not to fall prey to the schemes of false teachers. These teachers would purposely distort and twist scripture to confuse and deceive those who were undiscerning. I believe this u...

Word of the Day: Psalm 50:14

Word of the Day

Psalm 50:14 "Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving." Do I really have a thankful heart, or do I just have a "polite" heart that looks thankful on the outside? 1 Samuel 16:7 says God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. My "polite" heart might fool people around me, but this heart does not impress the Lord. I p...

Word of the Day: Deuteronomy 8:4

Word of the Day

Deuteronomy 8:4 "Your clothing did not wear out on you, nor did your foot swell these forty years." Sometimes it's easy for me to forget what God has done for me in the past and what He is doing now. Instead, I focus on the difficult circumstances around me that I am currently experiencing. I ask God constantly to remove them. Vs 4 in Deuteronomy 8 reminds me that God di...
