Understanding righteousness. "But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed." Ro 3:21 NKJV You will go to heaven because you trusted in Christ's righteousness, not your own. You say, "But isn't doing the right things important?" Absolutely. Your reward in heaven will be predicated upon what you do for God here on earth. But your s…

"Our sufficiency is from God." 2Co 3:5 NKJV Gideon's army of thirty-two thousand men is enormously outnumbered by the Midianites when God tells him, "You have too many men." He instructs Gideon to release anyone who is afraid, and Gideon loses two-thirds of his army. Now he has only ten thousand men. Again the Lord says, "There are still too many m…

"By his divine power, God has given us everything we need." 2Pe 1:3 NLT Following God means finishing what He has called you to do. Not everyone who starts out well finishes well. Occasionally we're shocked and saddened to learn that a leader has been brought down by a moral or a financial problem. Paul writes, "Luke, the beloved physician, and Dem…

There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors." 1Jn 4:18 AMPO When you were young and said a bad word, your parents may have threatened to wash your mouth out with soap. Well, if fear is a dirty word, then faith in God's unconditional love for you is like soap! Too many put the cart…

"Put me together again with your Word." Ps 119:107 MSG When everything in the psalmist's life began falling apart, he prayed, "Put me together again with your Word." That's what your quiet time with God does. So, why don't we have a consistent quiet time with God? Two reasons: (1) We think our quiet time must be a long time. Start small. Reserve fi…

"This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses." Heb 4:15 NLT One of Satan's most successful strategies for keeping us away from our quiet time with God is reminding us of our sins and shortcomings. That's a lie; don't believe it. In the Old Testament, the High Priest went into the Holiest of Holies to atone for the sins of the people. When h…

"You're my place of quiet retreat; I wait for your Word to renew me." Ps 119:114 MSG What's stopping you from having a regular quiet time with God?

We need to shed t…

Lk 10:36 NKJV Jesus told the story of the Jewish traveler who was robbed, beaten, and left to die on the Jericho road. Two Jews, both in the ministry, walked past him without helping.

"The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light." Mt 4:16 NKJV First and most importantly, Jesus brought the light of salvation to all mankind. But one of the enduring benefits of His kingdom is His impact on learning and education. The word university began with those who believed that God created the universe; therefore, His ways must be …

"We walk by faith, not by sight." 2Co 5:7 NKJV Impalas are one of the most powerful animals in Africa. They can leap to a height of more than ten feet and cover more than thirty feet in one jump. Yet the impala can be kept in an enclosure with a fence that's no more than three feet high. Why? Because it won't jump unless it can see where its feet w…
