For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, declares the Lord. Isaiah 55:8 This little verse is very well known and often cited and quoted by many. But the depth of God’s statement here cannot be fully understood by humankind. We often use it with a shallow meaning to dismiss some aspect in an argument or statement. But the Truth of […]

So for the sake of your tradition you have made void the word of God. Matthew 15:6 Have you ever considered what traditions you may be doing that God sees as a hinderance to your relationship with Him? Have you ever carefully considered any of your current religious traditions? Like doing what others just tell you

The Lord sets the prisoners free;     the Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;     the Lord loves the righteous. Psalms 146:7-8 Are we blind because of our iniquities? Are we blind because of our stubbornness, pride, fear, resentfulness towards God and others, and entitlement? Are we blind because we refuse to listen to

Take heed that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of My Father who is in heaven. Matthew 18:10 To us the invisible dimension seems implausible, but Jesus and the scriptures speak to beings that are not human who are part

What are the solutions to restoring one’s heart from resentfulness and a critical soul? Both in my mind are the result of a certain level of entitlement that has taken hold within the soul of the individual. While complaining about old shoes might be a normal kind of reaction, until you meet someone without any

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. Psalms 51:17 A broken spirit and a broken and contrite heart.

There’s an opportune time to do things, a right time for everything on the earth: A right time for birth and another for death, A right time to plant and another to reap, A right time to kill and another to heal, A right time to destroy and another to construct, A right time to

Brothers, do not be children in your thinking. Be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature. 1 Corinthians 14:20 This statement is SO accurate for TODAY! Are you spiritually mature in your thinking? What keeps us from being ‘mature’ in our thinking? Pride. Resentfulness. Laziness. Selfishness. Fear. And an inability to listen or learn. Are you

preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.  For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.
