    Being of Good Courage Always

    “Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord— for we walk by faith, not by sight— we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. Therefore we also have as our...

    Don't Listen to The Crowds

    As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him. And two blind men sitting by the road, hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried out, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!” The crowd sternly told them to be quiet, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”...

    Let Your Heart Take Courage

    “Teach me your way, O Lord, and lead me on a level path because of my enemies. Give me not up to the will of my adversaries; for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe out violence. “I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord in the land of...

    I Set My Face Like Flint

    “Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “’Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.’ “Then I said, ‘Ah, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, for I am only a youth.’ But the Lord said to me...

    Let No One Despise You

    “Command and teach these things. Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation, to teaching. Do not neglect the gift you have, which was...

    Our Aim is to Please Him

    “For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this tent we groan, longing to put on our heavenly dwelling, if indeed by putting it on we may not be found naked. For while we are still...

    Are You Embarrassed by Them?

    “Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of God, who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus...

    Worthy of the Gospel

    Paul (including Timothy) wrote to the saints (holy ones) in Jesus Christ who were in Philippi. He thanked the Lord for their partnership (fellowship, participation) in the gospel of Christ, and he spoke words of encouragement to them. And then he spoke to them about his own persecutions for the...

    Give Me Courage, Lord

    I believe that one of Satan’s greatest weapons against us is his lies and deceptions. And I am speaking here of those of us who have surrendered our lives to Jesus Christ to do his will, who have died to sin, and who are living to God. Through the use of lies and deceptions, Satan’s objective is...

    Do Not Fear Them!

    “Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest, but Peter stood outside at the door. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the servant...

    We are More Than Conquerors

    “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn...

    Courageous!

    Jesus Christ, God the Son, came to earth, took on human flesh, suffered as we suffer, and was tempted as we are tempted, yet without sin. He was despised and rejected of humankind, a man of sorrows and familiar with suffering. He was crucified on a cross, although he had done no wrong. Yet, he...

    Stand Strong in the Face of Rejection

    I am reading in John 18:1-27. It is a long passage so I am going to summarize much of it. So, please read it for yourselves. Judas Iscariot, who was one of Jesus’ 12 disciples, who had traveled with him in ministry for 3-3 ½ years, had just betrayed Jesus to the authorities. So he went to where...

    How to build up our faith

    So I was thinking of ways to encourage my brothers and sisters in their walk with God, and this will be one such feeble attempt to do so. Luke 17:5 (BSB) The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” How many times have I asked the Lord to increase my faith when I felt like I was...

    But Now Take Courage

    Haggai 2:1-5 NASB “On the twenty-first of the seventh month, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet saying, ‘Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people saying, “Who is left among...

    No Fear But Courage

    Joshua 1:7-9 “Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but...

    Be of Good Courage

    I’m sharing this here with you from my time of personal devotions with my Lord Jesus Christ, for your encouragement. Sue Love Joshua 1:6 ESV “Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.” After the death of Moses...

    Cheney: GOP 'dishonor will remain' after Trump is gone Liz Cheney may lose her Congessional seat as a result of her role on the January 6 Committee. But her legacy will include a no holds barred calling out of Republicans that failed to defend the Constitution and the nation. "There will come...
