In Luke 18 Jesus tells us the parable of the persistent widow. I have often viewed this parable as Jesus teaching us to be persistent in prayer, and if we keep on “pestering” GOD, he will finally and reluctantly give in to our petitions. While persistent prayer is certainly a practical point to be made, […]

Heb. 11:31-33    By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient. 32 And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson and Jephthah, about David and Samuel and the prophets, 33 who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised In our last two devotionals […]

SCRIPTURE: I Thessalonians 5:17-18 “Pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is GOD’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” By now you have heard the latest report. Our President has extended the “Social Distancing” to April 30. Governors in many states have issued curfews and stricter policies of staying at home. Perhaps you […]

Scripture: For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Normally, I use the New International Version, but this verse requires the King James. This is the way I memorized it. The same goes for the 23rd Psalm and […]

Scripture: 2 Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” There is movement taking place among churches throughout the world. It is […]

Heb. 11:8-9   By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. 9 By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were […]

Heb. 11:7   By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith. How many times have we said lately “We are in uncharted territory.  We’ve never experienced anything like […]

There are many times that I feel just like David. Wondering where God is. Wondering why he lets the wicked prosper. […]
