Isaiah 48:17: Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. God instructs and guides us in the way that we should go. His words, if obeyed, will do us more good […]
Psalm 145:14: The Lord upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down. God is so kind and gracious. The scriptures rightly describe Him as a very present help in time of trouble. God is not happy up there with somebody’s downfall or weakness. He does not rejoice when His child […]
Isaiah 30:18: And therefore will the Lord wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you; for the Lord is a God of judgment; blessed are all they that wait for him. God is slow to anger and full of compassion. He is […]
John 8:12: Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. Jesus is the light of the world. Every child of God who follows Jesus will never walk in darkness but will have the […]

Revelation 3:19 – As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. It’s easy to think of God as a divine fly-swatter, just waiting for you to land so that—whap—He can nail you for your sins. But that’s not what we see in Revelation 2–3 in His letters to the […]
Proverbs 15:6 – In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. Shelter and substance with love and peace are better than growing income with pain and trouble attached. A righteous man enjoys a happy and quiet life with more than necessities supplied, but a wicked […]
Psalm 63:3 – Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee. When David pours our his heart into one of his many psalms of prayer and praise to the Lord, his words often quickens an air of rejoicing in our own lives, for we too can identify with some of the […]
