THE TRUE CHRISTIAN
The true Christian will always love the law of the Lord (God’s Word) and not hate or dislike it because it’s commands hinder our so called freedom. We will always realize even as it steps on our toes and hurts sometimes that it is always for our good and God’s...
REMEMBERING
Here God probably in response to the Sabbath breaking that just occurred asked the Israelites to make visual reminders of their tendency to do wrong, and to remember to obey God, to be holy, and remember what God did for them. All of the people could obey this...
GETTING ALL THAT GOD HAS IN STORE FOR YOU
Joshua sent 12 men out to spy out the land the Lord told them to conquer. The majority report came back it can’t be done because…. Isn’t that what happens, the Lord speaks to the hearts of His people and tells them to step out and do something that is very...
JESUS IS THE MESSIAH
At the center of Mark’ Gospel is this very important recognition that Jesus is the Messiah. He has identified Christ that way in the very first verse of this Gospel. But up to here no other recognition of this fact has come to light in spite of all the amazing...
WANDERING IN THE WILDERNESS
The Israelites did many wrong things in the wilderness, but at least they were obedient to the command to go and to stay. Many times in our lives we have a choice, we can either wait on the Lord (Psalm 27:14 Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall...
THE NEED TO BE REMINDED OF WHO JESUS IS
In this chapter Jesus shows that He not only loves the Jews, but all people. He casts out a demon out of a Gentile girl and here He gives ears the ability to hear and a mouth to speak. All of these things are what was predicted in the Old Testament about what the...
HOW TO GET INTO HEAVEN
Many churches teach today as did the Pharisees that you had to do something to get into heaven and not do other things. They have turned to the truth of the Gospel into a system of works salvation. The Jews of Paul’s day boasted in their circumcision, claiming it...
THE PEACE THAT PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING
In this famous section of Scripture, we will talk about Jesus walking on the water and what that means to us today. We will see that Jesus does not always get us out of the storms of life, but He is there with us through them. Jesus gave a demonstration of His...
REAL OR FALSE
Many people say they are going to heaven and say all the right things at the right time, but if you are around them long enough you find out what comes out of the mouth is not what is in their heart. They say, but don’t do because the reality is Christ is not the...
BEING WHAT GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO BE AND DO
The people of Jesus’ time thought they knew who He was and so they did not believe in Him. Sometimes when God gets ahold of our life the people in and around us refuse to see the change in us and what God has called us to do. Many who begin to live for God in a...
TRUST IN THE LORD
The long painful history of the Church is God’s people ever and again being tempted to choose power over love, control over the cross, being a leader over being led. Instead we should heed Psalm 37:3-6 Trust in the LORD, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on...
JESUS CAME TO GIVE US LIFE AND SET US FREE
Many in this world are like this man, they are in torment and crying out for relief. They may not be demon possessed as this man was, but they are still possessed by torment, misery, and pain. Don’t think because you don’t see this type of misery in a person that...
