The sons of Israel did not listen to what God had promised them. This did not stop the LORD God from acting in their behalf. The LORD God continued with His plans to fulfill His purpose for His people. (The Book of Exodus.) So many times, today, people don’t listen to the wonderful promises God […]
Why do you not listen when someone is talking to you? Why do you shut others out? Is it because you are intent on what you will next say to them? Is it because you are depressed and under cruel bondage to sins? How sad, when we stop listening to God. Moses was sent by […]
Stunning revelation of God… He promised to take slaves in Egypt for His people and He would be their God! They would know, for certain and for sure, that “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.” Exodus 6:7 Then God said even more – He […]

For followers of Christ, those whose faith is in Jesus as their Savior and Lord, our sins are forgiven. Does that mean we are without sin? No, it does not. We are still sinners. But we are forgiven sinners. Our faith is in Jesus and not ourselves. Our faith is in His work on the […]
A woman dressed in a white blouse and white slacks carried a large black plastic bag filled with trash. What a contrast and yet a “picture” of the followers of Christ. We are dressed in His righteousness… which is pure. That lady throws the large black burden filled with trash away… which is what God […]
I see the rivulets running down the outside of the window from the moisture covering the window’s surface. I cannot wipe the moisture away, it is outside.
