Still Level in Every Way

We often hear people say, “The ground is level at the cross.” It’s not talking about the condition of the Terrafirma! It means that anyone, no matter his creed, color, or station in life, is welcome to receive salvation through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. Nothing matters at the cross, except the heart. Romans 10:13 tells us that “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.” But the…

The Cross & Crucifixion of Jesus

The cross overshadowed the life of Jesus, and He knew dying for lost sinners was the ultimate purpose of the Father. When facing the cross, Jesus said, “Now My soul has become troubled; and what shall I say, ‘Father, save Me from this hour ‘? But for this purpose I came to this hour” (John 12:27). For lost sinners, the cross of Christ is both personal and purposeful. It is personal, because…

What Would You Give?

Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Philippians‬ ‭2‬:‭6‬ If you loved someone and they were in trouble, what would you do to save them? We see stories everyday of heroes. Men and women who give their lives to save others. We even idolize them and for good reason. We say they have given their lives in ultimate sacrifice. These men and women go to…

Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:1-13

God instructs the Israelites to eat a passover lamb and spread its blood on their doorposts as a sign of redemption, a sign to the people. We know that God is going to smite the Egyptian firstborn (except for Pharaoh himself) about midnight of the night Moses left his presence for the final time (Genesis 10:29-11:8). Now, God is instructing Israel to take a lamb and keep it until the fourteenth…

By His Stripes We Are Healed

A Foundation for Christian Compassion and Connection I first encountered the verse “By his stripes we are healed” from Isaiah 53:5 when as a teenager I was introduced to the Christian rock band Stryper. Not only was I blown away by the music, but the lyrics served to encourage me in my early Christian walk. Isaiah 53:5 is the basis for the band’s name and that verse became a powerful symbol for…

Life Through Death (John 12:20-33)

Those who love their life lose it, and those who hate their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

Now among those who went up to worship at the festival were some Greeks. They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and said to him, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” Philip went and told Andrew, then Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. Jesus answered them, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Very truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and…

A Thanksgiving and a Testimony: Sunday Devotion

Psalm 116: 16-19 O Lord, I am your servant; yes, I am your servant, born into your household;  you have freed me from my chains. I will offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the Lord. I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people—in the house of the Lord in the heart of Jerusalem! Praise the Lord! As a survivor of domestic violence, I decided never…

December 14th-Our focus needs to be on His sacrifice and our obedience to His will.

Hebrews 10: 8After saying above, “SACRIFICES AND OFFERINGS AND WHOLE BURNT OFFERINGS AND sacrifices FOR SIN YOU HAVE NOT DESIRED, NOR HAVE YOU TAKEN PLEASURE in them” (which are offered according to the Law), 9then He said, “BEHOLD, I HAVE COME TO DO YOUR WILL.” He takes away the first in order to establish the second. 10By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of…

Assurance of Salvation

At the moment of faith in Christ, we have eternal life. This is a fact, even if we don’t fully understand it. In truth, most people will not understand what they have from God or find assurance of their salvation until they’ve studied God’s Word and learned to live by faith. Doctrinal ignorance and/or false teaching will lead to fear and doubt. For those who have trusted Christ as their Savior,…

Don't Stop Searching

For many, Easter is a time of egg hunts, chocolate, and Peeps, those questionable marshmallowy shapes loved by some and disliked by others. When the hearts of youngsters turn to sweets, chicks, bunnies, and baskets. Many view Easter as that holiday that heralds the end of school approaching, spring has finally come, and summer and warmer temperatures aren’t far behind. When Mason and Nolan…

His Thoughts to Us-ward

His Thoughts to Us-ward

Psalm 40:5. “Many, O LORD my God, are Thy wonderful works which Thou hast done, and Thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto Thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.” The Bible itself acknowledges that the works Jesus did while He was here on earth are so many that they cannot be contained in a book! The Apostle John…
