John 2:1-11 describes Jesus' first miracle, "The Wedding at Cana". Below, a musing about verses 3-5 (NKJV, bold is mine) 3 And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.” 4 Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not...

Jesus only asked four main things of us. To put God's will ahead of our own. To love all, including enemies, as self (just be kind and courteous). To repent of the backwards self-serving ways of man. To spread the good news, that being His Gospel of the Kingdom. God will take care of His...

The Great Depression of 2025? I was fortunate to be able to read the late Dr. Ravi Batra's book the Great Depression of 1990. This book climbed to number one on the NT Times bestseller list in 1987. Batra himself was a full professor by the age of 30 at SMU, and authored many books. He...
“As they were going along the road, someone said to Him, “I will follow You wherever You go.” And Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” And He said to another, “Follow Me.” But he said, “Lord, permit me...

Deseradar started after the first calls on Yahweh which they joined in. "O show us your provision for us Yahweh. We know from what our forefathers passed on to us that at that one time with all humanity wickedly turned against you with the sons of God joined with the daughters of men, you let...
“Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts which wage war against the soul. Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may because of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the...
’ — . And perhaps that’s why so few are on the narrow path, while so many follow the wide one. Too often, we rely on head knowledge rather than a humble heart that is open to God’s simple truths. Understanding grows when we keep it simple. Many of those who followed Jesus were not...
“For this reason we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. For if the word spoken through angels proved unalterable, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty, how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?”...

People say repent, but are not often clear themselves of WHAT, simple as it may be. Stop putting our will ahead of the will of God. His will is we act in servitude to each other rather than lead the self-serving lives we have led. A simple reversal of what took place in the Garden. The world is...
Christ’s Wounds We have already learned that we are healed by touching the wounds of Jesus. Only His wounds can heal because, unlike us, He willingly suffered them with pure love and forgiveness. Therefore, Satan could not infect them with hate or any other poison. This means that Christ’s...
1 Kings 19:11-13 (NKJV-bold text mine) 11 Then He said, “Go out, and stand on the mountain before the Lord.” And behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind; and after the wind an...
“What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin so that grace may increase? May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? Therefore we have been buried with Him...

There are two opposing powers at work as the world is made of both, existing because of each other, necessary to be working in tandem for creation to exist. Everything has an opposite. Information we were not to have, until the wrong tree was chosen and the knowledge gained. Two opposing wills...
“Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him. Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who...
