God's Mercy and Grace

God’s Mercy and Grace

Psalm 34: 3-6 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His name together. I sought the LORD, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked unto Him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. David. along with several others, was hiding in the cave of Adullam. He had run…

You Can’t Do This Alone

Give your burdens to the Lord, and he will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall. Psalms‬ ‭55‬:‭22‬ One of the things I’ve always struggled with is asking for help. Asking for help is a sign of weakness. Asking for help can be placing a burden on someone else. Asking for help implies I don’t know what to do next. All of those things aren’t necessarily true but that is…

The Role of God the Father in Salvation

God the Father is seen as the initiator, planner, and orchestrator of the salvation of mankind. God the Father is loving, merciful, and kind, and “desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim 2:4), and is “not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance” (2 Pet 3:9). Salvation is necessary because of the problem of sin in the human race. All…

Be Merciful (Jonah 4:1-11)

Do you have a right to be angry?

Jonah was really upset and angry. So he prayed: Our Lord, I knew from the very beginning that you wouldn’t destroy Nineveh. That’s why I left my own country and headed for Spain. You are a kind and merciful God, and you are very patient. You always show love, and you don’t like to punish anyone. Now let me die! I’d be better off dead. The Lord replied, “What right do you have to be…

A Garden And A Path

In January of this year (2023) the Lord was leading me to work on an album of original prayersongs tentatively titled Paths of Praise Christian Worship Songs. Suddenly He interrupted that work which I was completely focused on and switched directions. He asked me to create an album of traditional hymns as a gift for His children. When the Lord changes my focus on a project it completely humbles…

Where's The Restraint?

photo courtesy of David Garrison on Pexels I lost my temper the other day. This is not unusual, though I’m an adaptable person, going with the flow rather than expressing my anger in an outward way. I’m also a passionate person who sees a principle, a truth, being ignored and will respond with a heightened use of words full of exasperation. I get ticked. We were watching the news–doesn’t…

August 8th- Sadly, the family unit no longer carries the significance it did even a short time ago.

Ezekiel 20:16 because they rejected My ordinances, and as for My statutes, they did not walk in them; they even profaned My sabbaths, for their heart continually went after their idols. 17“Yet My eye spared them rather than destroying them, and I did not cause their annihilation in the wilderness. 18“I said to their children in the wilderness, ‘Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers or keep…

Ring of Fire

As I sit here humming Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire,” I can’t help but think about the many rings of fire that touch our lives. Johnny sang of a love so fierce it felt like flames. Couples wear rings that symbolize their promises to forever love each other through all of life’s seasons. A few months ago, we looked up and witnessed a different kind of fire – a solar eclipse creating a celestial…

Fallen, Yet Forgiven

24 Then David comforted his wife, Bathsheba, and went in to her and lay with her, and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. And the Lord loved him 25 and sent a message by Nathan the prophet. So he called his name Jedidiah, because of the Lord. 26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and took the royal city. 27 And Joab sent messengers to David and said, “I have fought…

Inductive Scripture Study of Alma 11-12: Understanding God's Plan of Redemption

In these chapters, the prophet Alma and his companion Amulek teach critical principles about salvation and eternal life. They confront false doctrines and clarify that Christ's atoning sacrifice is central to God’s plan.

Dear Mama,

My heart is heavy thinking about you today. It doesn’t seem possible that it’s been a year since you’ve been gone. One of the hardest things was letting go and relinquishing you in God’s hands. He took you home on Mother’s Day around 3 pm. I believe you received the best Mother’s Day gift ever. It was difficult to see you in pain, a prisoner in your own body laid up in that bed. I never gave up…

We are at war!

We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ. 2 Corinthians‬ ‭10‬:‭5‬ We are at war! This war isn’t going to destroy any buildings. This war won’t see the killing of innocent women and children. This war isn’t over borders and boundaries. This war is far more destructive, yet not really seen by anyone,…

Tell The Truth

We are anchored in the truth of God and this anchor will hold in these crazy culturally chaotic times. God bless you and yours!

Now it’s time to be made new by every revelation that’s been given to you. And to be transformed as you embrace the glorious Christ-within as your new life and live in union with him! For God has re-created you all over again in his perfect righteousness, and you now belong to him in the realm of true holiness. So discard every form of dishonesty and lying so that you will be known as one who…

King David: An OT Example of Submission to God

David provides a good example of an OT believer who lived in regular submission to God. The Bible describes David as a man after God’s own heart (1 Sam 13:14; cf. Acts 13:22). David walked faithfully with the Lord and surrendered to His will. David was an obedient king, for the most part, and subsequent kings were measured by him (1 Ki 3:14; 9:4-5; 11:4-6, 31-34, 38; 14:7-8; 15:1-5; 11-15; 2 Ki…

Sing a New Song (Psalm 98:1-5)

The things which exist beyond our normal human experience are no less real than our daily mundane activities.

Oh, sing to the Lord a new song!For He has done marvelous things;His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory.The Lord has made known His salvation;His righteousness He has revealed in the sight of the nations.He has remembered His mercy and His faithfulness to the house of Israel;All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the…

God Is Refuge For The Oppressed

God Is A Refuge For The Oppressed Drawing Video Here’s a new drawing video. The vertical lines in the first frames suggest an oncoming tornado. Those lines normally would never have appeared and didn’t until the final edits. When I saw them I was astonished. The Lord said not to remove them. He absolutely is the true Artist of not only all my drawings, but of each of our lives. What often…
