Is it the devil? When people face trials, troubles and difficulties in their life you often hear them say they are facing an attack from the devil. Is it? Of course we know the evil one can cause harm to us and in our lives. Read the book of Job in the Bible and that fact is confirmed. However in many instances the troubled times we face, can be a direct consequence of our own actions or lack thereof. How so?

At the first sign of a problem do we turn inward or reach out to

Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV)

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”

This has been a favorite scriptures for many people. A lot of people read this scripture as if it refers to God as a security blanket for our lives. That He will always take all of our suffering away. If you spend some time reading this scripture over and over in full context by reading the full chapter and book before and

As we read God's word we can’t stop at Ephesians 5:2 (quoted below), we have to continue reading the entire 5th Chapter of Ephesians. There it is explained to us what is the type of person God wants us to be and what He views as appropriate and inappropriate behavior. It's made clear for us. It's given to us not as rules but as protection. Given to us as guidelines so we can enjoy the benefits and blessings from following God's word on appropriate behaviors and so we are

Bible Study On Etiquette and Manners.

The basic standard for Christian behavior is 1 Corinthians 10:31 which says, “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” When our goal is to honor the Lord in every way, we remain aware that we represent Him everywhere we go. Whether sitting in a church service, shopping at the mall, or working at our jobs, we can do so for the glory of God. When we carry the reputation of Jesus with us, our behav

Do you ever choose not to share the gospel or talk about what Jesus has done for you with others due to a fear of someone being offended? We’ve all been there. We have all done this in our life, perhaps more often than we wish to admit. Have you also not felt like getting into it with certain people? God would be urging us to speak to them but we chose not to for whatever reason. Often because we were having a good time and we didn’t want to chance making that turn to a

Lamentations 3:22-24 “It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him."

To reach every mountain top you must travel through a valley. It is easy to be grateful to God when you are shouting from the mountain tops. The valley that we all endure at some point in life are what we call adversities. It is during those

The Water’s Edge

Have you ever sat by the water’s edge and felt the peaceful surroundings? You can feel serenity when being near the rushing waves along an oceans beach, lying by the sunny seaside, boating in a lake cove, sitting along a bank beside a lake or just watching the water run across the pebbles in a creek bed. It is easy to sense the tranquility that the water brings if you open your heart to its glistening qualities.

In John 7:37-39 Jesus spoke about “living wat

We all face trials in life and sometimes those trials may bring us battles we are afraid to face. Life’s trials may bring with it many temptations to go against God’s truth. We have choices, we can give into those fears, let the battle consume us, let the temptations break us or...we can run to God and allow Him to lead the battle and trust Him to arm us with what we need to win. We must beware of those who cheer us on as we travel down paths that differ from God’s word.

We are the branches, Jesus is The Vine. What is our relationship with Jesus really like? What is it supposed to be like? We are given a clear example in John 15:1-17. "I am the true vine, you are the branches" Grape orchards were quite common in the hills and valleys of Israel back in biblical days. Give this thought for a moment. Jesus is the source of what we need as nutrients. He is The Vine He sinks His roots into the ground to gather all we need. Water, nutrients, et

Testing God is unacceptable when the test is rooted in doubt. Think about this one, if you have true faith then why would you take great risks and put God to the test? You must need proof and that is not faith, that is doubt. Faith is not believing that God can but it is knowing that God will. Some try to use Malachi 3:10 as a place where God approved of being tested but read on below.

The scripture says, “‘Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be mea

Tasting Life

We have annual festivals in many areas and oftentimes local restaurants will have a booth or set up a table offering tastes of their specialities. The owners of those restaurants and their Chefs hope that by tasting their food it will entice us to try more of their recipes. They invite us to come, taste and see for ourselves how good their food is. In Psalms 34:8 David said “O taste and see that the Lord is good…” He continues to express how he sought the Lord

We are encouraged to pray for others in church, for missionaries and different people from our lives. Often we are asked to commit to a prayer vigil for a person, a missionary, a situation and many churches have a prayer list. Sometimes we hesitate to make prayer commitments because we are not sure that we will be able to live up to it. We ask ourselves will we remember to pray every day? It isn’t that we don’t want to, we’re obviously taking the matter of prayer very ser

Loving Jesus. We say we love Jesus, we often whisper it in prayer, say it when singing a hymn, when arriving or leaving church, when looking upon a cross or perhaps when taking communion. The phrase is said by most of us often enough. We say “I Love You” to our children and they say it to us. We say it to our spouse or a boyfriend, girlfriend or friend But what about “I Love You Jesus?” What if Jesus is waiting for us to say that to Him, how long would He have to wait to
