Bible Verse of The Day – 1-19-23

Mark 4:39 (NKJV) 39 Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.

These 3 words changed the outcome of the storm.

What we say and do when we face a storm will determine our outcome.

Jesus rebuked the wind and spoke to the sea. The wind ceased and the sea was calm.

Jesus knew what to do and what to say in that moment. He spoke the words necessary for the moment, and the storm ceased.

Will we remain calm enough in the midst of a storm to hear God and apply His Words to our situation?

When we have faith in God and we trust Him no matter what rises up around us, it is powerful! There is no storm, no change in our situation, no problem too big for us to face with Him in the boat with us.

If we are facing a sudden, unexpected change in our situation, or if a heavy storm has hit, remember the 3 words Jesus spoke; Peace, be still!

Have faith and trust God to bring the calm. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-4-22

Matthew 7:24 (NKJV) 24 “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:

So much of what Jesus taught was simple and straight to the point.

Yes, He also taught some things that were so deep that even His disciples didn’t understand them. But when He spoke, He spoke with absolute authority that assured people that He was who He said He was.

The verse above is one of those that’s direct and to the point!

Despite its simplicity, it speaks volumes that we can all learn from.

Take note of what Jesus said first; “whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them”.

Hearing the things Jesus says isn’t enough. He wants us to do them!

And what did He say about those who actually do them? “I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock”.

So, doing what Jesus says makes us wise! And it gives us a solid foundation to build our lives on.

Then, in verse 25, Jesus said this:

Matthew 7:25 (NKJV) 25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

You see, rain, floods and winds represent the storms of life. And they are sure to come for each of us. Nobody is exempt.

It doesn’t matter if you are a layperson, a prophet, a pastor, a teacher, a worship leader or anything else with a title. The storms will come for all of us. And most of us will experience many different seasons in our lives where storms of different kinds will pound upon us.

But if we do what Jesus says to do, and not just hear it, we are wise and grounded, anchored on the Rock, giving us a defense that the storms will never be able to overcome or bring down.

And that’s something the world can never offer us.

So, what do we do? We hold fast to Jesus, our Rock and our Redeemer.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-25-22

Matthew 7:24-25 (NKJV) 24 “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: 25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

We often hear this verse quoted because it refers to building on the rock, not on sand or other easily-destroyed foundations.

Today, let’s look at this from the opposite angle and see what we can glean from it.

Building on a strong foundation is important. But why is that?

Why is it so important that we have a strong foundation under us?

Because we will face storms.

Look at what Jesus said as He spoke to the masses: the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house.

So, that tells us beyond a doubt that storms will come.

Jesus didn’t tell us this to scare us, but to warn us so that we could be wise in our choices and decisions and prepare for the storms of life by building on the one true foundation; God.

Storms do come. It’s a fact of life that we will never be able to change. Are we prepared for them?

That’s the question we need to be asking ourselves.

Let us heed His advice and build on the Rock, so we will not be easily tossed about or devastated when the storms do come.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-26-17

Malachi 3:6 (NKJV) 6 “For I am the Lord, I do not change…

Life and everything about it is always changing. Things don’t stay the same for very long.

It doesn’t matter if it’s family situations, jobs, politics, finances, or anything else that affects our lives. It all changes at some point, and will continue to do so as long as we live.

Sometimes those changes are minor and we barely notice them. Other times the changes can be drastic, and they can really hit us hard. Sometimes they might make us feel like we’re about to get knocked off our feet.

But we want to encourage you and reassure you today that no matter what comes our way, no matter how unstable life might make us feel sometimes, there is one Constant that will never change, ever.

God never changes. He said so Himself. He is the Rock that will never fail or falter, no matter how bad things might look.

Hebrews 13:8 (NKJV) 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

So how do we have this stability? How do we feel secure in the midst of an ever-changing world?

Jesus summed it up quite nicely when He told us to not only hear His sayings, but to do them!

And when we do that, we are building our houses (our lives) upon the rock.

Matthew 7:24-25 (NKJV) 24 “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: 25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
