Become an Olive Tree March 29
Genesis 48:5 And now thy two sons, Ephraim, and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine. The patriarch Jacob is speaking to his son Joseph about Joseph’s two sons, Ephraim, and Manasseh. When Joseph was promoted out of prison by God, the Pharaoh of Egypt gave Joseph authority over all Egypt, answering to no one but Pharaoh. Pharaoh also gave Joseph an Egyptian wife, Asenath
Unlimited Calling March 15
Psalm 50:15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. We all know that God is the beginning and the end, He knows everything. Somehow, I don’t think He knew how much I would have to call upon him, how many days of trouble I have had. I’ve told Father God that, it’s such an unfair trade I accepted Jesus and He gave me eternal life, which is worth more than anything, and yet, He helps me through all my troubles. Surely, He gets tire
Songs of Deliverance March 10
2 Samuel 22:1 And David spoke unto the Lord the words of this song in the day that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul. It’s pretty straight forward David is Thanking God for his deliverance. But if we look at Psalm 32:7 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah. It implies that God is singing songs of deliverance over us. One night I had
Restore Your Eyesight January 18
Mathew 7:3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? We all need to go to the Spiritual Eye Doctor on regular basis to help us get our vision corrected. The word mote can also be translated as a twig or even a straw. When I was in my early teens, one day we were irrigating on the farm, as I was walking to the ditch I went under some trees and a ‘twig’ caught me in the eye. I screamed from the immediate
No Collect Calls May 21
1 Samuel 3:8 And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child. Samuel one of my favorite prophets; he just seemed like a caring man that did things right. Here we have young Samuel in the temple, and when he hears the voice of God for the third time, he gets up and runs to the head Priest Eli. Eli is probably in his 80's or 90's at this point, and he
Powerful Mindset May 22
2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. This bible verse is one of my favorite scriptures in the bible. Sometimes we can get into situations where we need to settle ourselves down. For example, past-due bills can bring you into a place of fear, and fear is a type of bondage that the enemy uses for control. But God wants us to operate in a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. Recently I was in the hospital
