The Blessing of God’s People

Joel 2:26 – “You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, And praise the name of the Lord your God, Who has dealt wondrously with you; And My people shall never be put to shame.” Whom do you refer to as “your people”?

Strengthened by the Lord

Ephesians 6:10 – “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.” In Ephesians 5, Paul provides valuable guidance on how we need to walk in love.

Approved by God

2 Timothy 2:15 – “Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” Just about every product that’s made has to be tested before it’s put to regular use. Whether it is a chair, a car or an app, all products […]

Impossible is Nothing

Mark 10:27 – “But Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.’” “Impossible is Nothing!” That’s the tagline of a popular global sporting brand.

A Priest Who Understands

Hebrews 3:1 – “Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus.” We tend to look for people who understand us. We gel with friends who like the same things we do. We prefer to hang out with people who get our lame jokes and […]

Bow Down and Be Lifted Up

Psalm 95:6 – “Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.” Bowing down to royalty, leaders and elders is a mark of respect in many countries around the world. When you bow down to humans, you earn their favor for only a limited period of time. And, […]
