WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET
Many in this day were preaching what people wanted to hear to get gain from it as many do today. We are always tempted to be liked rather than tell people the truth from the word. It is more important that we please God rather than man. Paul was letting them know...
PRAY AND LET GOD WORK
The Psalmist cried out to God asking God to act for His people and asking for HIM to destroy their enemies. Do we go to God when we have enemies and ask God to take care of them? The Bible says in Romans 12: 17 Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good...
WHAT MOTIVATES YOUR ACTIONS?
Paul exhorts his readers with a series of commands in verses 13-18, with the greatest of these being to do all in love. As Christians the greatest need in the church and outside in the world is to let everything we do be motivated by love. God has poured out His...
DRAWING OTHERS TO GOD BY OUR LIFE
Paul is rebuking the Corinthians for living in sin, when they ought to have been living for God and sharing the Gospel since their neighbors did not know the Lord. Some of them were not truly saved either. When we live in sin and are observed by unbelievers this...

ARE YOU USING YOUR GIFT OR GIFTS?
This is one of four passages about Spiritual gifts. 1 Peter 4, Ephesians 4, Romans 12, and 1 Corinthians 12. Do you know what your spiritual gift is, how to use it and are you using it? I wonder how many people don’t know what their gift is and are not using it...
LOOKING FOR HELP
King David was confident that God would help him and sustain him just as He had done so many times in the past. When times are tough to whom or where is the first place we look for help? We need to learn if we have not that God is always there for us in all of our...
TRUSTING IN THE SAVIOR
Psalm 50 was written by Asaph and pictures God as the Judge over all. It uses 3 different titles for Him and speaks of Him as the greatest of all judges. He is commanding (summoning) all people to come before Him. One day we will all stand before Him either as one...
GOD IS FAITHFUL
Verse 11 is speaking of four examples of disobedience mentioned in verses 1-10 and the resulting judgement which came to the Israelites. He goes on to say to the Corinthians and us don’t ever think you are above temptation and can never fail nor fall. Then He gives...
