Luke 9:23 – And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. Every day there are things that come against us, distractions that would try to pull us away from our faith in Christ. That’s why Jesus said […]
I Thessalonians 4:12 – That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing. When others look at your life, what do they see? Does your daily life win the respect of others? As believers, we are Christ’s representatives in the earth. We are called to a […]
1 Chronicles 29:28 – “And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.” This verse speaks of the death of King David, but it doesn’t seem to be a sad obituary. Instead, we see that David had lived a good long life that […]
Galatians 1:10 – “For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.” In some way or the other, we are all trying to please somebody else in our lives. […]

Exodus 17:11,12 – “Whenever Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses’ hands grew weary, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it, while Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on […]
2 Chronicles 1:1 – “And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly.” Solomon had some big shoes to fill after his father’s demise. David was known to be a man after God’s own heart, and he had accomplished a lot […]
1 Chronicles 29:12 – “Both riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all. In your hand are power and might, and in your hand it is to make great and to give strength to all.” Most of us hope to achieve something great in our lives. We strive to do well in our education and get […]
Galatians 1:23,24 – “They only were hearing it said, ‘He who used to persecute us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.’ And they glorified God because of me.” Paul had a rather startling testimony. He was a staunch Jew and used to persecute those who believed in Jesus. Paul was so […]
Ephesians 1:17-18—”That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his […]
