  • Limiting Humans From Owning Land (Isaiah 5:8-10)

    Limiting Humans From Owning Land (Isaiah 5:8-10)

    Standing in a dusty field near Fresno, the owner of the land complaining about political agendas says, “We are simply going to starve ourselves and probably the rest of the world.” Woe to those who join house to house; They add field to field, Till no place Where they may dwell alone in the midst…


  • A Perfect Hatred

    A Perfect Hatred

    Do I not hate them, O LORD, who hate You? And do I not loathe those who rise up against You? I hate them a perfect hatred; I count them as my enemies.(Psalm 139: 21-22)It’s so difficult to hate with a perfect hatred, because there is a fine line between hating God’s creation and hating what God’s creation…


  • Isaiah’s Song Of Salvation & Thanksgiving

    Isaiah’s Song Of Salvation & Thanksgiving

      As I continue in my journey through Isaiah in my morning quiet time, I felt so blessed that I decided to post thoughts. In Isaiah 26:1-19 he offered up this song after he wrote of GOD’s judgement on the earth in chapter 24, which was followed by a prayer of thanksgiving in chapter 25.…


  • Mary Had A Little LAMB

    Mary Had A Little LAMB

    “Mary & The LAMB of GOD” In the beginning GOD created the heavens and the earth, then on the sixth day HE created man. Yet man was lonely for there was no mate to be found for him. So GOD put his crowning creation, Adam, in a deep sleep and created for him a helpmeet…


  • We Need A Nineveh Type Revival

    We Need A Nineveh Type Revival

    It is understood that the real worth, success, or effectiveness of something can only be determined by putting it to the test by trying or using it. Appearances and promises aside, the best test of a pudding is to eat it. For Christians we know that we are not saved by our works, for GOD…


  • Pray Before You Work

    Pray Before You Work

    (Hudson Taylor 1832-1905) Whenever I find myself trying to accomplish a task, I must remind myself to never do it in the flesh. For when I do things in the flesh the results are never satisfying to me nor for my customer. Thus I always find myself praying for the Holy Spirit to take control…


  • What Truly Matters

    What Truly Matters

    What truly matters? When you die, don’t worry about your body… Your relatives and funeral staff will do it. I know this first hand. I’ve done it myself… They will take you out of the house and deliver you to the funeral home of your family’s choice. They will take off your clothes They will…


  • Mourning A Loved One, Who Took An Early Flight

    Mourning A Loved One, Who Took An Early Flight

    I was recently informed by a friend that they lost a close loved one. However he knows that his loved one is with our Lord, because those, like my friend and I, are all promised that if we put our faith in Christ, then to be absent from the world means we are Present with…


  • Untitled post 5653

      In my morning quiet time today, I read through Isaiah from chapters 28 to 32, but I was truly struck by the way Isaiah’s warming in chapter 28 about the false prophets, teachers, and government officials of his day, is also a warning against false prophets, teachers, and government officials of our world today.…


  • Faith

    Faith

      Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1) Hebrews 11:1Faith is such a small word that has allows me to live, because it adds security to my expectation of hope, Hope is a wish, a longing for something I do not yet possess, yet encompassing…
