For It Is A Sign Between Me And You… How many times does the Lord have to speak to us before we actually listen and obey? The Book of Exodus we find our Lord, God, speaking to Moses in chapter after chapter verse after verse. Moses in turns goes to the Israelites and shares with them what the Lord has ask Moses to share with them. The Israelites always agree and respond with something like, “yes, we will do that”. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak thou also…

When They Had Opened Their Treasures… Gold, myrrh and frankincense may be the three most important gifts the world has ever known. Who doesn’t like receiving gifts, blessings and having promises fulfilled in their life? We all do. It makes us feel special, wanted and loved – three feelings we could use a lot more of in our day. Gold, a material like no other, represents a host of other things in our life. Some cultures see gold as “tears of the sun”. Most cultures, including the Christian culture, see…

When Ye Come To Appear Before Me… The fulfilling of all Righteousness was the announcement made by Jesus Christ, Emmanuel, when He met with John the Baptist. Just before Jesus was dipped below the surface of the water, Jesus declared… And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. ~ Matthew 3:15 KJB We are grateful for this moment. As this moment fulfillment of prophecies, fulfillment of Righteousness, ends some of the sacrifices that…

Bear The Names Of The Children… Do we carry our children, all generations, with us into prayer? Should we carry all generations into our prayer time, the time we spend with God? And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the LORD continually. ~ Exodus 28:29 KJB It sure sounds like it. When we enter a space and are walking with the Lord, who enters, aside from…

That I May Dwell Among Them… God is always moving. God is never silent nor is He sitting idle in our lives. God is constantly moving pieces into place that change our lives and, for those that are moving closer to God on a regular daily basis, God is making way a clear path to carry His message to our brothers and sisters in Christ. Even when it appears in our sight that God is sitting idle, God is moving. And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may…

When We Did Eat Bread To The Full… How many times do we receive blessings from God and then begin winning about what it is, how much it is or when it arrived? Yes, we do thank God for blessings, but not always. Yes, we do receive blessings in a timely manner, but not always on “our time line”. Blessings can be humbling situations, they can also be cause for great joy and celebration. The prodigal son is a blessing that is cause for great joy and celebration. Being freed…

Stretch Out Thine Hand Over The Sea… When it appears that our back is against-the-wall…is it? When it looks like all is lost and there is no way out…is it? When the storm refuses to quiet and batters against our window, against our life and against our faith and it seems that only tragedy is our fate…is it? Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the…

In A Pillar Of A Cloud… We see best when we are in the Light. When we are in darkness finding our way is much more a challenge. We can do it we just can’t do it very well and we can’t continue doing it very long. It is when we attempt to live in darkness for a long period of time that our life runs off the rails and we find ourselves in a deep hole. It is when we keep our covenant with God, with Jesus Christ, that…

Thus Saith The Lord God… Has the Lord, our God, been trying to get your attention? Has the Lord, our God, been knocking at the door while we are sleeping? Has the Lord, our God, been sending warning signs that something is about to go afoul if we don’t turn back to Him, confess and repent and give our families, communities and country over to the sovereignty of God? And the LORD spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go,…

The Lord Is Merciful And Gracious… Our Lord, God, is sovereign over all. It is by His Word that we know Him. It is by the signs and wonders done in the Lords name of His Son, Jesus Christ, that we know He is the great I Am. It is when we forget these that our life seems to go off the rails and we stumble falling from grace. The Lord is gracious to give us “what we deserve” for if He did there would be far fewer of us…
