2 Corinthians 9:15 Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) This is how God the Father gives-wholeheartedly, generously, not under compulsion, but out of abounding love. When […]
Psalm 118:21 I will praise You, For You have answered me, And have become my salvation. Just yesterday, many celebrated Christ’s birth. How apt to begin today with this verse that declares that Christ has become our salvation. Let’s ponder on what the writer of this psalm was trying to say here. We realize that […]
Titus 3:4-5 “When the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us.” The dictionary defines ‘mercy’ as, ‘the compassion or forgiveness shown towards someone whom it is within one’s power to punish or harm’. Think […]
Romans 15:13 – “Now may the God of hope fill you with all the joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” The dictionary describes hope as a ‘feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen”. We hope we will pass that test; get that […]
Mark 11:24 Therefore I say to you whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. “Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” (Mark 11:24 BSB) “And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask […]
Isaiah 51:6 “…And those who dwell in it will die in like manner; But My salvation will be forever, And My righteousness will not be abolished.” While reading the latter part of Isaiah 51:6, I was curious to know the meaning of “Dwell“. In the Old Testament “dwell” is a translation of 9 words. Of […]
Acts 4:12 “No one else can save us. Indeed, we can be saved only by the power of the one named Jesus and not by any other person.” The dictionary defines salvation as, “preservation or deliverance from harm, ruin, or loss”. But the Bible defines it as so much more. It is a free gift […]
2 Corinthians 1:20– “For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.” According to the dictionary, the word ‘yes’ is used to express affirmation. When it comes to our God, “yes” is directly related to Christ and the weight of the word completely […]
1 Peter 3:12 (NKJV) – For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil. God wants our nature to be Christ-like. Whenever we go through trials and persecution or are ill-treated by someone, what […]
So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Hebrews 9:28 (KJV) In his letter to Thessalonica, Paul confirms the second coming of the Lord and appeals to the church to “stand firm” as they wait […]
