Jude 1:3: “Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once and for all entrusted to God’s holy people.” Reading the Book of Jude is like reading today’s newspaper, or whatever…
In chapter 2 of the Book of Daniel, King Nebuchadnezzar had a dream that greatly troubled him. Verse 2 says he called the astrologers, magicians, and soothsayers to interpret his dream. The problem was, he couldn’t remember what he dreamed. Nebuchadnezzar vowed to kill them if they didn’t tell him his dream and what…
When I was a kid (a long time ago, in a land far, far away 😁), I remember hearing people say they could tell you exactly where they were when they learned Japan had bombed Pearl Harbor. That event changed the lives of all Americans as we found ourselves fully engaged in World War…
My parents taught me that a man’s word is his bond, that a man is only as good as his word. That seems to be an outdated concept today. People will promise to do something, with no intention of doing it. Sometimes we do the same thing with God. To paraphrase Deuteronomy 23:21, we…
Micah 4:4, “They shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid.” This verse popped up in some of my early morning reading, and it caused me to stop and remember. While this verse uses the example of a vine and a fig tree, I…
I recently visited the ancient city of Thyatira, home to one of the seven churches in Revelation. It was once known for the purple dye it produced, which was used to make extremely expensive purple garments: clothing for the wealthy. Today, only crumbling ruins remain. It was also known for a woman named Jezebel…
Nahum 1:7: “The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in Him.” As I write this, several friends are going through troubling times. Some of them are facing physical troubles, while others are facing spiritual attacks. Either way, it is a troubling and stressful time. Sometimes…
The past several weeks have stirred up many memories. Today, I’m thinking of all the saints of God who played an important part in my life. Their dedication to God inspired me to become a faithful follower and servant of God. I’m remembering the anointing they had on their lives and how that anointing…
On my visits to the Holy Land, we usually stop at this tree, just long enough to take a picture. Some say this sycamore tree in Jericho is over 2,000 years old and could be the one Zacchaeus climbed. You know, the tax collector I mentioned a few days ago. Normally, Zacchaeus would have…
