Romans 4:20-21 AMP But he did not doubt or waver in unbelief concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and empowered by faith, giving glory to God, being fully convinced that God had the power to do what He had promised. We got the news a few months ago and were so…

God’s response to Job was: were you there at the beginning when I laid the foundations of the earth? And wisdom, personified in Proverbs, says she was there at the beginning. Read the table below to see what I mean. What does this say? It says that wisdom is so important that it existed…

Proverbs 1 reminds us that the wise should be willing to hear instruction and guidance and that the fool despises it. It’s easy for one to despise the advice and guidance others often offer. But this verse reminds us that we may be on the wrong side when we do this. However, the part…

Many times in life, things don’t go the way we plan or hope. But it is in these times that we need God the most. We need his word because it’s precisely in these times that all of what we know about God goes out the door, and the unbelief kicks in. But that…

Job – a reminder of trust

Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head and fell on the ground and worshiped. And he said, “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. In all this Job did…

When I read Jonah’s prayer in Chapter 2, I am inclined to think that it’s such a great prayer.It speaks about God hearing the cry of his children, and I even found it sounded like some of the Psalms. But the more you look at it, the more you must question its sincerity. The…

Context David’s son Absolum had killed his brother Amnon and, knowing he was in trouble, went into hiding. At this point, David was probably in a difficult place. He knew his son was wrong in killing his other son, but he also loved his son Absolum. So, this woman came to the King with…

David is such a great example of a man whose heart was for the Lord. Even though he was not perfect, he didn’t continue in his sin; he repented. And you can see from the scriptures that God thought that David was an example of an exemplary servant of God. And if thou wilt…
