Classical Music, Seahawks, & Jesus

by PH

Think about what you are enthralled by. Were you always enthralled by it from the beginning? My guess is not. – I love classical music. It’s something I’d pay good money to listen to. But I didn’t feel that way at first. (Like you, it was elevator music at first) – Playoff football is something […]

God Blesses an Evil Man!

by PH

It is NOT true God can only use those who are submitted to Him. He can use ANYONE for His purpose. Even a pagan king who did not acknowledge His existence such as King Nebuchadnezzar. What’s more amazing, God even calls this pagan king His “servant!” Read this passage carefully: “With my great power and […]

As1 Devotional-One of the effects of impurity

by LD

Good afternoon, Titus 1:15-To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled. I’m sure you have as I have been "contaminated" by an event or person in your past, and for a time have it effect how you saw […]

Smart Jesus

by PH

Have you thought of Jesus as smart? Well, I’m sure you didn’t think He was dumb. But have you specifically thought of Him as an intellectual giant? My guess is probably not. We think of Him as a loving shepherd, forgiving big brother, soft speaking man of God, but His being intellectual is probably not […]

As1 Devotional-Letting His goodness dominate

by LD

Good morning everyone, Psalm 27:13-I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living! What we think about and what tries to dominate our hearts many of times is negativity. Maybe from what we said, did, or didn’t do. But how much does it leave us to […]

As1 Devotional-Reading and praying in hope for other people

by LD

Good morning everyone, Ezekial 14:22– But behold, some survivors will be left in it, sons and daughters who will be brought out; behold, when they come out to you, and you see their ways and their deeds, you will be consoled for the disaster that I have brought upon Jerusalem, for all that I have […]

Broken Dreams Are a Good Thing!

by PH

It is possible to know who God is but still not be on board with what God is doing. Are you a Christian but not on board with what God is doing around you? The most significant question of all times for everyone was asked by Jesus: “Who do you say that I am?” How […]

As1 Devotional-Being careful while blessed

by LD

Good morning everyone Ezekiel 16:49-50-Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy. They were haughty and did an abomination before me. So I removed them, when I saw it. As God was recounting to […]

How the Mighty Have Fallen!

by PH

How is it possible for a man to be so smart and wise and also have had thrilling encounters with God, and yet fall away from the Lord when He is old? I’m speaking of King Solomon. Reading Prov. 7, you get such insight into how a man is led into lust and sexual sin. […]

God’s Sovereignty vs. Man’s Freewill

by PH

If God is in absolute control (sovereign), then why do we need to do anything? One of the teachings of the Bible we believe in is that God is sovereign over all things. Not just in life or death matters but in ALL things – even things like how many hair fell out of your […]
