Died In His Own Sin…

Died In His Own Sin… When does one receive an inheritance from our parents, our Mom and Dad? Would our Mom be responsible for delivering an inheritance to us in the absence of our Dad? What does an inheritance mean at this time in history?

Here Now, Ye Rebels…

Here Now, Ye Rebels… Giving Thanks, honor and glory to the Lord, our God, is not asking too much, is it? To simply remember the things that happen from the hands of this vessel, we do not do.

When we don’t give the Lord, through the name of Jesus Christ, the praise and we…

Come Out Ye Three…

Come Out Ye Three… Our God is a loving, caring, generous God. Our God is also a God who demands respect, honor and our undivided devotion, love and obedience.

When we look away from God, when we begin doing things, creating things and going places of our own accord, this is when we get into trouble and our God can become angry. If your Mom and/or your Dad tell you,…

I Will Not Cast Them Away…

I Will Not Cast Them Away… As we walk through our days we sometimes get off course, forget that we are serving a loving, caring and deeply kind God.

Concerning This Thing I Pleaded…

Concerning This Thing I Pleaded… We usually see God’s hand in our life in the rearview mirror. It is only in a review of our circumstances we can see what God has done for us. What we see, at the time, as pain is usually nothing more than a thorn in our side. Yes, it is uncomfortable, embarrassing and sometimes there is actual, physical pain, but once we get to the other side we see how God has made our path brighter, straighter and drawn us closer to Him. Concerning…

Atonement For Your Souls…

Atonement For Your Souls… When God looks at us, God sees Jesus Christ. Those that are saved by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Only Son of God, we are set free because of the atonement made by Jesus Christ on our behalf.

We can see that God put all this in place long before Jesus was born, long before He lived and long before Jesus was crucified and resurrected. For the…

So Moses Finished The Work…

So Moses Finished The Work… God does what He wants, when He wants and we are subject to His changes in plan. We are to continue to wait on the Lord even when our entire body, mind and all that we know says to move. We sit still. Moses kept all the commands of the Lord but was frozen in place as the tabernacle was made ready. The Tabernacle of Moses is dressed on the day that God commanded. All the component parts are made, to order, brought the location…

You Can Not See My Face…

You Can Not See My Face… Do we come in close contact with God? Close enough to see God from the back side, but not His face? Does the grace and mercy of God wash over us directly from the hand of God? How do we know if it comes directly from the hand of God or from the Holy Spirit? Are the Holy Spirit and God the same?
