That I May Know Him – Week 9

His words are spirit and life. The Bible is a book of life. Jesus lived in it, declared it, and was submitted to it. He knew the word written must be fulfilled. He therefore was fearless in the face of a storm, a crowd who sought His life, and a lack of resources to...

Add to Praise

We have praised for seven days…now what? After seven days of praise, what’s next? More praise expanded praise. I would love to hear your testimonies of what the Lord has shown and done for you during this last week of praise. You can simply reply to this email, and it...

That I May Know Him – Week 8

Salvation is by grace through faith. This week we in the Epistles will be a coupling of grace through faith. The word of God read and listened to, mixed with faith (our accepting what we are reading as truth), moves us into obedience (attentive hearing under) as we...

Exalt the Lord

Seven-day Praise Challenge In my life, I have found that when trials rest upon me, I can make God bigger, or make Him smaller. Well, I cannot make God smaller, but my unbelief will limit His greatness. God’s sovereignty and majesty are beyond my comprehension at any...

That I May Know Him – Week 6

This is the week of The Double Portion in Job. This week we begin doubling up on some portions of the Bible while not reading other portions. For instance, today we read Genesis 36 and 37, and leave out Job and Isaiah. We do this to help balance out the Bible sections...

The Double Portion

The story of Job is about God’s double portion! Why would God point out Job to Satan? It was to move Job from self-righteousness maintained in sacrifice into a relationship maintained by God. That’s a big answer to say, God wanted Job to discover what he would not see...

That I May Know Him – Week 5

The word is our authority as the Spirit is our power. Jesus submitted to the word of God. The Word of God made flesh submitted to the word of God that was written. Upon Jesus’ baptism, the Holy Spirit led Him into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. When...

The Race

The race is set before us. We are all in a race, but not against each other or the devil. Our race is in conforming into the image of the firstborn from the dead. God has saved us in Jesus Christ. Having accepted us in the Beloved, He now is redeeming us in the...
