Isaiah 40:11 – “He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young.” Today’s verse paints a beautiful picture of the kind of shepherd our Lord is.

Exodus 4:2 – “And the Lord said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod.” When God called Moses to lead the Israelites out of Egypt, he wasn’t exactly eager to accept the mission. Moses kept giving the Lord excuses, trying to explain why he wasn’t the man for the […]
1 John 3:18—”My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.” In today’s world, it is sometimes difficult to like some people around us. Maybe we get annoyed with the vegetable vendor who dumps their garbage beside the road? The old man down the street who […]

1 Peter 2:16-20—”Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor. Servants, be subject to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the unjust. For […]
Psalm 34:1—”I will bless the LORD at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.” This is what David said when he changed his behavior before Abimelech so that he drove him out and he went away. David knew who His God was. He wrote songs of praise and poured his heart out […]
Job 32:8-9—”But it is the spirit in a person, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding. 9 It is not only the old[c] who are wise, not only the aged who understand what is right.” It is commonly spoken that ‘with age comes wisdom’. The thinking is that age, the x number, brings […]
