In Mark 4:35, Jesus had just concluded a teaching service where a multitude of people had gathered, and verse 2 says, “He taught them many things by parables”. Parables are short stories of things familiar in life that illustrate and convey spiritual truths. On this day, He taught them things pertaining to the kingdom of […]
A Prophetic Exhortation -By Rose Hill “To My seeking child”, saith your heavenly Father: “I delight in one who seeks to know and understand more about Me. For truly I say unto you, seek and you shall find. I am always anxious to give My children the desires of their heart, especially when they desire […]
Distractions rank high in the cause of accidents that often times produce irreversible results; innocent lives are lost, permanent injuries are sustained, and hearts are left broken and lonely. Distractions can work havoc in your life, and also in those around you! Similarly, distractions in our walk with the Lord and in our spiritual life […]
Words of wisdom from Job 14:1 say, “Man who is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble” meaning commotion, restlessness, disquiet, and anger. A like thought is found in Job 5:7, “man is born to trouble…”, and a different Hebrew word here means toil, labor, sorrow, grief, pain, fatigue, misery, and […]

In John 14:2-3 Jesus promised “I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.” This promise receives its richness from the Hebrew marriage customs in which the time […]
Everyone wants the blessings, but few are willing to position themselves to receive all God has promised. In Isaiah 10:27, God promises that the burden (the load) the enemy has laid upon your shoulder shall be taken away, and the yoke (that bondage, that captivity, that suppressing force) shall not only be taken away but […]
One of the greatest anti-fear verses in the Bible is found in Isaiah 41:10 “Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” As Abraham’s seed through Christ we have the […]
There is an old song that says, “You can have a song in your heart in the night”, and Psalm 42:8 certainly backs that up saying, “The Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime, And in the night His song shall be with me.” Certainly darkness covers the earth today; not the darkness that […]
