Good morning everyone, Matthew 17:1-2,9,16 And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light……. vs9 And as they were coming […]

I just read this morning about Samson. You know, the freakishly strong man who was brought down by a girl named Delilah? I’m not sure what the Bible is trying to teach through that man. I sat there and thought long and hard, “Why is this in the Bible?” It certainly doesn’t fit our Christian […]

Would God ever use dirty vessels (cups)? You’ve heard it said, “God uses clean vessels. Therefore, clean up your life if you want to be used by God!” I’m sure I’ve said that too. But it’s not biblical. God uses dirty vessels too! Example? Abraham. Moses. David. Gideon. etc. “But they are examples of clean […]

Good afternoon everyone, Luke 15:16-And he was longing to be fed with the pods that the pigs ate, and no one gave him anything. I try and recall moments when the people I love the most were there for me at times when no one was. My wife Ange in my adult life has been […]

As I look around myself, I see worshipers everywhere. As a matter of fact, every person on earth is a worshiper. Many worship football – […]

If you didn’t wake up in hell this morning, be happy! If you are reading this devotional, then a few things are true: 1. You are not in hell. 2. You have a device on which to read this which makes you a middle class American. 3. You have interest in spiritual things. All of […]

Good morning everyone, 1 Kings 19:5-7 -And he lay down and slept under a broom tree. And behold, an angel touched him and said to him, "Arise and eat." And he looked, and behold, there was at his head a cake baked on hot stones and a jar of water. And he ate and drank […]
