Bible Verse of The Day – 5-8-26

Psalm 24:8 (LSB) 8 Who is this King of glory? Yahweh strong and mighty, Yahweh mighty in battle.

As of late, I have been walking through a very contemplative season in my life. It is causing me to reflect frequently on the goodness and the sovereignty of God.

It has also caused me to stop and examine many things about life.

Why do I share this?

Clearly not to draw attention to myself in any way at all.

But rather, with the hope that it might cause you to contemplate the fragility and brevity of life, and reconcile that with your relationship with God, that you may evaluate it and make adjustments, if necessary, pertinent to the strength of that relationship and the current stage of your life.

Our relationship with God is not/should not be static. It should be dynamic and alive, moving, and growing over time.

We should always be willing to adjust, when necessary, to keep that relationship sharp and burning brightly.

And we should never take our focus off Who we serve and worship; the King of glory, Yahweh strong and mighty, the Lord, God, Creator of everything.

I urge you today to consider the ramifications of this; the fact that your eternal destiny lies in the hands of the state of this relationship with God.

Knowing this, it should be easy to put all necessary effort into making that relationship strong and fireproof.

But the pull of the world, and the things of it, can be strong; stronger than some people might expect or be prepared to fend off.

And regarding this, I encourage you today to keep yourself always prepared, not only to recognize the tactics of the enemy, but to do what is necessary to stand against the wiles of that enemy, guarding your soul for the sake of eternity.

Ephesians 6:11 (LSB) 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.

We love you all 🙏🏻

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-22-25

John 16:1 (LSB) 1 “These things I have spoken to you so that you may be kept from stumbling.

This is a very interesting verse.

What makes it so interesting?

The fact that Jesus was warning the disciples that what was to come may cause them to stumble.

Various Bible translations often include a descriptive subtitle at the beginning of each chapter of the 66 books.

For this chapter, the LSB translation uses this subtitle: Jesus’ Warning.

The NKJV translation uses this: Jesus Warns and Comforts His Disciples.

So, from this we can clearly see that Jesus was warning them, and also comforting them.

But it’s also important that we understand what it was that He was warning them about.

In the LSB, above, we can see that He wanted them to be aware so they may “be kept from stumbling.”

The NKJV says it was so they “should not be made to stumble.”

This brings much more clarity to the importance of what Jesus was saying, and why He warned them.

But what does this mean? What was being referred to by “stumbling”?

The NLT translation brings it all together by saying “I have told you these things so that you won’t abandon your faith.”

You see, our faith in Christ is a walk; a perpetual endeavor that relies on our effort to keep it thriving. It is a lifelong journey.

And if the disciples, who spent 3 years face-to-face with Jesus, needed to be cautioned, so must we also exercise that same caution, that we may also not stumble or abandon our faith.

Knowing this, let us give our relationship with God the time, effort, and diligence that are due, that our walk with God may become impenetrably strong; an unbreakable bond between us and our Savior that not even the demons of hell can destroy.

That on our final day, when we cross over into eternity, we may hear God say, “well done, my good and faithful servant.”

Amen

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-16-17

Matthew 6:21 (NKJV) 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Where our treasure is, there our heart will also be.

This was such a short, simple statement made by Jesus. But it sums up our entire walk with God perfectly.

Whatever our heart is focused on is what we will spend time on. Our “treasure” will occupy our time, our thoughts and our attention.

When we open our mouth to speak, what’s in our heart will come out. If our treasure is money, we will talk of financial matters. If our treasure is our hobby, we will spend as much time as possible thinking and talking about it, as well as participating in it.

If our treasure is our spouse, we will spend all of our time and effort trying to please them. Sometimes we might even put our spouse before God.

If we want to please God and build a strong relationship with Him, we need to be sure we are putting Him first in everything. He needs to come before our money, our hobbies, our careers and, yes, even before our spouse.

And if we love God and put Him first, our priorities will fall into order and the love that we show our spouse won’t be forced or artificial. It will be like God’s love is pouring directly from Him to our spouse, with us acting as the funnel that it flows through.

And so it will be with everything else. Once we let God set our priorities in order, He will oversee our career, our family, our finances and everything else that’s important in our lives.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-2-16

Genesis 2:7 (NKJV) 7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

If God never formed man and breathed the breath of life into him there would be not one human being in this world.

He created us and He cares about us. He is a very personal God. Take every day seriously, for it is precious. Let us spend time with God, giving Him our attention and our love.

We need to be accountable to Him every day, looking to Him for His guidance and support in all that we do. We need to own up when we do wrong and let Him know that we acknowledge it and want to do better.

He wants a beautiful relationship with us; a relationship where we trust and acknowledge Him.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

He is a GREAT and Mighty God and He has good plans for each one of us! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-29-16

1 Timothy 2:5(NKJV) 5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,

Our relationship with the Father can be as deep and as strong as we want it to be. Isn’t that AWESOME?

There is NO limit to how much time we spend with Him! We can go to the Father morning, noon or night. Why? Because Jesus Christ, our Mediator, has made this possible.

We don’t have to go through any other man to get to God. What a privilege and honor!

Are we working on our relationship with Him today? Are we growing stronger in our walk or are we still at where we were when we first came to know Him?

Draw near to Him today by communicating and spending time with Him.

Psalm 73:28 (NKJV) 28 But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, That I may declare all Your works.

He is faithful!!
