Can you imagine getting to see Moses? That would be pretty special! The 80-year-old man who led God’s people out of Egypt, through the Red Sea, to Mount Sinai, through the wilderness, to the Promised Land, and wrote the first five books of the Bible! Yes, seeing him would be a treat! Can you imagine getting to see Elijah? The man of trusting prayer, who cared for…

You keep trying to tempt me to sin against my God! Sometimes it looks really good! Sometimes I think it wouldn’t be that big of a deal! Sometimes I think about the fact that no one would even know about it! Sometimes I see how close I can get without crossing that line! Sometimes I let my emotions and what feels good get the better of me. Sometimes…

When Jesus was on this earth, “He knew what was in man” (John 2:25). He knew their hearts and their thoughts (Matt. 9:4), without them saying a thing to Him. That should not surprise us, as God “looks at the heart” (1 Sam. 16:7), and He “alone know[s] the hearts of all” (1 Kgs. 8:39; Acts 1:24).  Now, we could read those verses and…

What a smart girl! Instead of listening to what so many in the world would have her to believe, the 9-year-old young lady used the brain that God gave her and figured it out on her own. She came out of worship on Sunday and said, “If Adam and Eve were the first people, and they had children, and then those had children, then…

How beautiful is God’s design for His church! Everything that we know and need to know about it is found in His beautiful Scriptures! The church was planned by Jesus (Eph. 3:9-11), built by Jesus (Matt. 16:18), purchased by Jesus (Acts 20:28), started by Jesus (Acts 2:22-47), is loved by Jesus (Eph. 5:25), is governed by Jesus (Col. 3:17), is shepherded by Jesus (Heb.…

You know the closing verses on Numbers 6, although you may not realize it. Let me start it and you finish it: “The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make His…” Are you singing the rest of the song in your head? Part of verse 25 says, “The Lord make His face to shine upon you.” What does that mean? Have you seen someone’s face…

Paul wrote about those who face the sorrow of death and “have no hope” (1 Thess. 4:13). Their loved one was outside of Christ—a place where there is “no hope” (Eph. 2:12). But, he wanted those inside of Christ to know that they may sorrow at the loss of a faithful child of God, but their sorrow is tempered by hope. How? Those who have…

Where do you get your advice for choices you need to make? Who do you go to when you need some guidance? Too many Christians go to the wrong place and the wrong people! Years ago, it may have been Ann Landers or Dear Abby. Or maybe just ask folks at work or friends from school. Today, it’s Google or ChatGPT. All of these can head you in…
