“Now as they went on their way, Jesus entered a village. And a woman named Martha welcomed him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, ‘Lord, do you...

There was remaining wood that they yet needed to gather, which Jecharon and those with him did right away, to soon return then to where the others were making camp. Deseradar announced to them when they came, "I explored what could be seen from the other side of this grove of olive trees. I...
What is dark to us is not even dark to You, O Lord. That which is brightened by your Light ushers You in. Dark is dispelled from us. Your Presence--Light occupying the seized. Basking, here is the new creation you’ve made of your shining saints. Change undeniable! This knowledge...
“For no good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit, for each tree is known by its own fruit. For figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush. The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person...

And Jesus answered and said to them, “It is not those who are well who need a physician, but those who are sick. I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance." Luke 5:31-32 Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” “No one, sir,”...

“The Lord Jesus Christ…gave Himself for our sins so that He might rescue us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father” (Galatians 1:3, 4). “The god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the...
“Simon answered, ‘Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.’” “When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and...
The Lord paid the Spirit-bail over my destiny,* to walk on, my soul set free! The old master, sin, wields no whip to make cower. Scars of the past are just that: a past hour. “Done left the plantation”, I have for some time. Each step within Jesus’ will recalls the sublime that New Jerusalem...
“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, and every spirit that does not...
12 There are those who are clean in their own eyes but are not washed of their filth. 13 There are those—how lofty are their eyes, how high their eyelids lift! 14 There are those whose teeth are swords, whose fangs are knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, the needy from...
"The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law." 1 Corinthians 15:56 What is the "sting of death"? What is the "power of sin"? Why do Christians say, "Christianity doesn't work"? Resources: The Scale between Law and Grace...
The Righteous Persecuted 9 When a wise man has a controversy with a foolish man, The foolish man either rages or laughs, and there is no rest. 10 Men of bloodshed hate the blameless, But the upright are concerned for his life. 25 The fear of man brings a snare, But he who trusts in the Lord...
So I read a meme posted on Facebook today which said: “Calvinism is monergistic when it comes to the doctrine of salvation. This simply means that when a person is saved it is due wholly to the working of one source of power, God. Arminianism is by necessity synergistic, in that it conceives of...
1 Better is a poor person who walks in his integrity than one who is crooked in speech and is a fool. 2 Desire without knowledge is not good, and whoever makes haste with his feet misses his way. 3 When a man's folly brings his way to ruin, his heart rages against the Lord. 8 Whoever...

“My son, do not lose sight of these— keep sound wisdom and discretion, and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck. Then you will walk on your way securely, and your foot will not stumble. If you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep...
Whose trust is in Him “For it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant, and a song of praise is fitting. The Lord builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel. He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars; he...
The Habit of Self-reflection/Prayer December 13—Holy Hour. . . . “Practice your faith. When you were learning to walk, you leaped forward at a venture, and little by little you became surefooted. Do the same in your inner life. Take a flying leap toward the Trinity, toward My mother, in...
“Rescue me, O Lord, from evil men; Preserve me from violent men Who devise evil things in their hearts; They continually stir up wars. They sharpen their tongues as a serpent; Poison of a viper is under their lips. Selah.” (Psalms 140:1-3 ESV) “Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; Keep watch...
“On the day I called, you answered me; my strength of soul you increased.” “For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly, but the haughty he knows from afar. Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies...
