No more flood. Got it. God remembers. But it doesn’t mean God doesn’t get fed up. There’s a point at which everything reaches a boiling stage, and something must be done. But now instead of a worldwide flood, there will be local interventions. Divine Interventions. Such is the case with Sodom and Gomorrah. God didn’t […]
Advent comes toward the end of the year. Each of us has a past in this year (and with COVID 2020 has been a doozy!) and most of us have a past that includes prior years. Sometimes that past is something we’d like to forget. Sometimes our past is something we need to release to […]
So soon after the flood and humanity got a population movement going, what do we do? We get right back to sinning. We go right back to idolatry, making names for ourselves instead of glorifying the Name of God whom we should fear, especially after the flood. But there we go again, more concerned about […]
I can’t begin to imagine how frightening it must have been to be in the ark when the rain came down, and a world full of people cried in anguish as they watched loved ones die by drowning before succumbing to it themselves. I hope the ark was soundproof or animal noises within made the […]
God knows which people are His and which people are against Him. This is not a modern phenomenon. Why does God put up with people who hate Him, who rebel against Him, and who thumb their noses at the Almighty? Love. Love for those who bear His image which is all humanity, both the good […]
According to Wikipedia, a No-Go area is “a region where the ruling authorities have lost control and are unable to enforce the rule of law.” Ah, but God never lost control. God was never unable to enforce His commands or deliver His pre-announced consequences. As we continue our look at Divine Intervention in our 2020 […]
Taking stock of where we are isn’t exactly the modern way. Maybe we don’t want to think about it. It’s easier just to brush everything under the rug than to acknowledge who we are and what we have allowed ourselves to become. “They [Adam and Eve] sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves. […]
When it seems like the impossible clouds all earthly possibilities, hang on.When it feels like the troubles of this life will never change, don’t give up.When hope is a distant thought and despair pummels us from every angle, keep hoping!When the struggle is real and our strength fails us, take heart!When we’re weary from running […]
Have no other gods before Me, God says, and also don’t bow down or worship statues or idols (Exodus 20:2-6). That’s because He’s fully aware that statues and images cannot replace our true and essential Object (grammatically speaking) of worship. God’s reasons are not the same as those of Sean King whose views were recently […]
Lift the signal from the noise. Take a step back. Breathe. Think about first things and your top priority: Worship of God through Christ Jesus. The battle is His. The battle is His, but the battle is also very real. Look to Jesus. When Jesus was confronted with the devil’s temptation to lose focus and […]
