…for such a time as this.

I was reading Mordecai’s instruction to Queen Esther when the plot had been made to annihilate the Jewish people:

“Do not think in your heart that you will escape in this king’s palace any more than all the other Jews. For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise … from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” (Esther 4:13-14) read more

The sound of the bugle…

I read today in I Corinthians 14:8 the following: 
 "And if the bugle gives an indistinct sound who will get ready for  battle?"

I have a concern for our nation and for the people who are being misled by the false messages of our culture. I have a burden to sound a Warning Trumpet to alert people of the approaching danger in our time. That is why I have created this web site and am sharing these thoughts. I have truly found the greatest meaning in my life through a relationship with the man who claimed to be God — Jesus of Nazareth.

My heart as I read the passage above was to ask that I might effectively sound a warning. May my voice not be indistinct but sound clear so that people take note and become aware that God is our hope — not the false messages of the man-focused ideologies that reject You. read more

…brought nothing in — carry nothing out!

Just read a couple of verses that jumped out to me in 1 Timothy 6.
[vs.7] “For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.”
[vs.12] “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called, and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.”

This puts all of life in perspective. We brought nothing into our earthly life and will take nothing out. read more

how to stop being a stumbling block…

Was just reading this —

“And the Lord’s bond servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.”    2 Timothy 2:24-26. read more
