Throughout the Scripture God promises strength to His people for every day and for every circumstance of life. In Ephesians 6:10-18, that famous portion showing us the armor that is available to us, armor that we must avail ourselves of if we would be victorious, we read, “Be strong in the Lord, and in the […]
Today we are thinking about the glory of God’s kingdom as revealed in Jesus when He came into the world through human birth. John 1:14 says it like this, “…the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” […]
Psalm 34:4 says, “I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears (Hebrew fright).” Someone has observed that there are 365 “fear not’s” in the Bible; if so, then there is one for everyday of most years. The Bible clearly says “God has not given us the spirit of […]
