Who are God’s Enemies?
They are those who oppose the proclamation of the full gospel message, and who try to prevent others from believing the truth. They are also false teachers who twist the truths of scripture to their own advantage in order to gain followers after themselves, not followers...
Proverbs 23:26-28 ESV
My son, give me your heart,
and let your eyes observe my ways.
For a prostitute is a deep pit;
an adulteress is a narrow well.
She lies in wait like a robber
and increases the traitors among mankind.
Sexual sin is at its peak in our day and time with the ease...
Observe Carefully
Proverbs 23:1-3 ESV
When you sit down to eat with a ruler,
observe carefully what is before you,
and put a knife to your throat
if you are given to appetite.
Do not desire his delicacies,
for they are deceptive food.
We should not be given to gluttony, for...
A Present Help
Psalm 46:1-3 NASB
God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change
And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea;
Though its waters roar and foam,
Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride...
An Original Work / June 10, 2018
In the stillness of the night
I sit quietly, waiting,
Listening to hear
My Savior’s voice.
In the quiet of the eve
It is so peaceful, restful,
Free from busyness
And distractions.
He speaks quietly to me,
Gently guiding me, leading,
Teaching me the way
That I...
Things Above
Colossians 3:1-4 NASB
Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in...

The question is not,
“Is God able?”
For our Bible’s
Not a fable.
The question then is
“Are you willing
To surrender?
Your life giving?”
When Jesus gave His
Life up for us,
Died on that cross,
So He’d free us.
So He, in His death,
Conquered our sin
So that we...

To love like You, Lord,
That is what I desire;
To live like Jesus,
And let His words inspire;
To let His Spirit
Fill up my life with grace;
To care for others
Who I meet face to face;
To show compassion
For all who live in sin,
Showing them the way
To living in...
So Willingly
1 Chronicles 29:9 NASB
Then the people rejoiced because they had offered so willingly, for they made their offering to the Lord with a whole heart, and King David also rejoiced greatly.

No More Pain
Revelation 21:1-4 ESV
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a...
Walk to Please God
1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 ESV
Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and more. For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord...

Time, it isn’t
on our side.
Clocks are ticking.
Hours go by.
Satan’s lurking
‘round the bend.
Life eternal’s
Without end.
See, the church is
Fast asleep.
Satan’s dressed like
Li’l Bo Peep.
Gospel message
Watered down.
Many preachers
Act like clowns...
My Enemies Trample
Psalm 56:1-4 ESV
Be gracious to me, O God, for man tramples on me;
all day long an attacker oppresses me;
my enemies trample on me all day long,
for many attack me proudly.
When I am afraid,
I put my trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I...
“Memorial Day” is a US holiday commemorating people who have died while serving in the US military, usually in a time of war. Some people extend that to also say that the holiday is a day to honor our soldiers who they say have died protecting our nation and our freedoms. Today was “Memorial...
The mountains declare
The praises of God.
Their beauty proclaims
His glory.
The sky and the clouds,
The stars up above
Give evidence of
His story.
The sun, as it shines,
His radiance shows.
The tree tops proclaim
His kingdom.
The colors of all
His beauty shine forth.
Creation declares
His...
Various Trials
James 1:2-4 NASB
Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
Jesus Christ, “for the joy set...
Christ, the Servant

“Therefore I will give praise to You among the...

As Servants of Christ
1 Corinthians 4:1-2 NIV
This, then, is how you ought to regard us: as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the mysteries God has revealed. Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.
We, as believers in Jesus Christ, need to...
Press on to Maturity
Hebrews 6:1-3 NASB
Therefore leaving the elementary teaching about the Christ, let us press on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, of instruction about washings and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the...
