I happened to be reading through the book of Proverbs a few days ago. I saw a few verses that I thought were worth posting. I pray you will get encouragement from the living Word of God. PROVERBS 13:15 – Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard. PROVERBS 13:22 – A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just. PROVERBS 14:5 – A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies. PROVERBS 14:7 – Go from the presence of a foolish man, when…

Fret means to be worried or anxious. Unfortunately many of us find ourselves in fretful situations. I too admit being over anxious at times. I was encouraged in and after prayer on Sunday reading Psalms chapter 37. The entire chapter is worth the reading, but I have posted just a portion of it in this post. Psalm 37:1-5 1     Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. 2    For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. 3    Trust in the LORD,…

I was reading in I Kings 17 a few weeks ago and noticed the miracles that were performed in the midst of the drought. By definition, a drought is a shortage of water or it could be a shortage of anything. We certainly realize there is shortage of many things in our present economic condition. However, we are encouraged that God is still in control in the midst of this drought. I wanted to encourage you with a portion of scripture that I read on yesterday in which I thought was very appropriate. II CHRONICLES 16:9 For the eyes of…

At the beginning of the message today, Bro. Caleb shared this quote with us. HEAR.YE.HIM_  CHICAGO.IL  SUNDAY_  56-0930 Now, when a man is inspired and he reads the inspired Word, the two inspirations together gives a result. Now, you can never… No matter how well you study the Word, It’ll never do you no good till you’re inspired yourself. It takes your inspiration with… The Word’s already inspired. So what we need today is an inspiration over us, God sweeping down with a new inspiration and breathing over us His power, and His love, and Himself, that it might inspire…

Often times we hear this statement and it is used with a negative connotation. I have come to understand that I was gene in my Father before I was ever born. Notice the capital Father, as I am grateful for my natural birth, but my spiritual birth is beyond comparison. Our natural parents were predestinated to bring a supernatural gene to earth. I am convinced that I shall take on the image of my Father, for truly I desire to fulfill the old adage; “like Father, like son”.

Happy belated Father’s Day to all the fathers. Thought I would share a quote with you as it was read in church on Sunday. One of the saints was really moved by the quote and wanted to share it with someone else. Enjoy the scripture and the quote. EPHESIANS 6:1-4 1     Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 2    Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) 3    That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. 4    And, ye fathers,…

We ran across this quote while studying the Seventh Seal on last week. It seemed to be a perfect follow-up to the message that was preached on Sunday, entitled “The Darkness Is Past”. THE.SEVENTH.SEAL_  JEFF.IN  SUNDAY_  63-0324E I thank God for His Word; I thank Him for Jesus Christ. For without sending Him for the–the propitiation of our sins, we’d all be in a big muck of sin with no hope. But by His grace, His–His Blood cleanses all sin. Just like the drop of ink in a bucket of Clorox, you’d never find the ink again. When our sins…

I was referring to this statement in the message today ” The Darkness Is Past”. Under inspiration, I couldn’t quote it just right, but thought I would share what I was referring to. This is a simple reflection and I encourage you to  look at where you were and look now to where you are. One thing for sure progress has been made for it is quite difficult for anyone to stand still. CONVINCED.AND.THEN.CONCERNED_  CHICAGO.IL  MONDAY_  62-0521  E-61 Well, you can say I’m crazy if you want to. You can say I’m out of the will of the Lord if you…
