Holy Spirit led me to Psalm 37 this week and uncovered some astonishing treasures. Here are the first three verses: 1 Do not fret because of evildoers, Nor be envious of the workers of iniquity. 2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb. 3 Trust in the Lord, and … Continue reading Hidden Treasure Found in Trusting the LORD

Fear Not – God Will Keep Us
How do you read your Bible? Do you have a yearly reading schedule where you read a certain number of chapters each day sequentially from Genesis to Revelation? I’ve done that several times as well as other systems. Lately, I’ve been digging deep into the book of Revelation and have a binder full of notes … Continue reading Fear Not – God Will Keep Us
Thanksgiving–It Means More Than We Think
Today is the day before Thanksgiving here in America. Thought we'd look at the word Thanksgiving. Before today I always thought Thanksgiving was about thanking God for the things He's given us. I was surprised to discover that thanksgiving is something else all together. The word Thanksgiving looks like this: Strong's #8426 It is pronounced Toe … Continue reading Thanksgiving–It Means More Than We Think
The Matter of Oaths and Swearing – What Does Jesus Say?
Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.’ 34 But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God’s throne; 35 nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the … Continue reading The Matter of Oaths and Swearing – What Does Jesus Say?
Oh What Great Blessing is Seen in Those Who are Pure in Heart
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Matthew 5:8 This post is out of sync with the other beatitudes. I was multitasking and hit the wrong button. But here you go. Better out of sync than not at all. Thanks for understanding. The word heart in Hebrew and in Greek is … Continue reading Oh What Great Blessing is Seen in Those Who are Pure in Heart
“Oh, how I love Your law!” Is God’s law something to love?
David wrote, "Oh, how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day. You, through Your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies;For they are ever with me." Psalm 119:97-98 Many Christians believe that the law written in the Old Testament is something to be discarded. They say the law is no longer valid … Continue reading “Oh, how I love Your law!” Is God’s law something to love?
The Word Testimonies is More Than You Think
I was brought up in a church where every Wednesday evening there was a Prayer and Testimony service. People would stand and tell how God had blessed them that week. And when my husband worked for the Sheriff's department, one of his assignments was to be a bailiff at the courthouse. He daily stood in … Continue reading The Word Testimonies is More Than You Think
The Bible Speaks About Statutes. What Are They?
Holy Spirit has me on a learning curve about the meaning of words. They appear often in the Bible, yet, are rarely used in our society today. 'Statutes' is one of those words. If you read the Bible like most people, you often see this word and pass right over it. You may see it … Continue reading The Bible Speaks About Statutes. What Are They?
This is My Commandment
The word commandment is often spoken in a derogatory way by the world and among believers. Many believe that the time of following God's commandments is over and now we live in the age of grace alone. It's not popular to go against this flood of fake truth, but that is where we are headed … Continue reading This is My Commandment
The LORD is our Banner
This past Sunday, our pastor preached a message out of Exodus 17, entitled, 'God Can Be Trusted?' One of the verses he highlighted was verse 15, where Moses built an altar to celebrate the Israelite's victory over the Amalekites. Moses called the altar, 'The LORD is My Banner,' or Yehovah Nissi. Our pastor asked the … Continue reading The LORD is our Banner
