1 peter 3:9—”Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.” While studying 1 Peter you will realize that Peter was talking to us-specifically: Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia- so we can look at this as a personal session.

Proverbs 11:7—”When a godly man dies, all his fears vanish; but when a wicked man dies, his hopes vanish” Nowadays the hearsay topics and the news contain information regarding the end times, coming back of Jesus, shemitah, financial crash, stocking up on food.

John 2:5: His mother saith unto the servants, whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. The wedding in Cana was going on as usual in all its festive mood and celebration, but they were in for a rude shock when they got to know that they were running out of wine. Just imagine that the […]
II Corinthians 5:17: Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. This is the most common verse we say to those who are new believers in the Lord. Old things need to be told good bye to and replaced with […]
Proverbs 3:28: Say not unto thy neighbour, go and come again, and tomorrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee. When we have the ability and the resources to help someone, we should not delay helping. Jesus never delayed helping anybody in need and those who called out to Him. He never sent […]
