Today is day three in our journey through the Book of Psalms. We will cover only three psalms today. Psalms 18 and 19 are two of my favorites. We will focus on the beginning and the end of them. Can you say, “I love you, O Lord” (18:1)? If so, how do you express that love to the Lord?Allen J. Huth

Today, we are in our second day of the Book of Psalms. We will go through Psalms 9-16. These psalms are filled with important concepts for living our lives.

In Esther 7, Esther has her second feast and finally lays her petitions before the king. She exposes Haman and his despicable plan. Have you, or are you, trying to hide something from God or man? When it gets exposed, will it be positive or negative for you?Allen J. Huth

Today, we are in Esther 6, following the drama of Esther 5 when Haman builds the gallows in the middle of the night. He now wants to go see the king to get permission to hang Mordecai. Things do not always go as planned. When they don’t, are you frustrated or curious that God may be at work?Allen J. Huth

After Esther 4, with those great verses, “for such a time as this” (4:14) and “if I perish, I perish” (4:16), we jump into Esther 5. Esther takes a risk of a lifetime. She will win big or lose big. Have you faced such a choice? Did you risk it all?Allen J. Huth

Nehemiah 10 begins with another long list of names. These are those who signed the covenant made at the end of chapter 9. Have you ever signed a “covenant” as part of a church?Allen J. Huth

In Nehemiah 9, hearing the Word of God leads the people of Israel to confess their sins which results in making a covenant with God. Does God’s Word convict you of sin? Does God’s Word draw you closer to Him?Allen J. Huth

Nehemiah 8 is one of the most significant chapters in the whole Bible as it relates to the Ezra Project. See if you can figure out why.Allen J. Huth
