Do you want to encourage a new Christian in their fellowship time with God? Reading the bible, bible studies, and prayer, can be daunting for seasoned Christians, so just image how hard it can be for new Christians! I would suggest…
It’s not homework, its your one on one time with God!
Doing a devotional is your personal one on one time with God. You don’t need to read and meditate on other peoples words to have a true personal devotional with God. Whatever form your devotional looks like, just make sure that you make it personal. Just you and God, one on one!
CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP IS A MUST! If you’re a Christian you need to spend time fellowshipping with other believers about your common faith. I believe most Christians know this to be true, and really want to do this. But in reality, we’re not fellowshipping as often as we should be. We’re not fellowshipping at home like God wants us to, and we definitely are not fellowshipping with our brothers and sisters in Christ like we should be. I’m not trying to…
But the Lord said, “You have had pity on the plant for which you have not labored, nor made it grow, which came up in a night and perished in a night. And should I not pity Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred and twenty thousand persons who cannot discern between their right hand and their left—and much livestock?” JONAH 4:10-11 We can learn a lot from Jonah. We can relate to him more than…
Over the years marriage has changed, but I am not going to talk about those changes. Instead, lets talk about the biblical principles of marriage, because those have not changed. This year, my husband and I will celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We were young in our faith when we got married, but we promised each other that we would keep God in the center of our marriage. As with anything in life, the longer you are apart of something…
What is love according to the bible and am I showing enough of it? I don’t believe that Christians think about this topic very often. This world would be so much better if everyone asked themselves these questions, and cared about the answer they received. We are called to show love to others, so this should be a goal for each of us. The verses in I Corinthians 13:4-7 will tell us if we are showing love to others, if…
We can’t leave God out of our lives, our choices, or our plans. This includes any New Year Resolutions that we might make. When we include God, we can be confident that whatever happens, God is with us.
CHRISTMAS AND THE BIBLE I believe the question, “Is Christmas mentioned in the bible” is commonly asked. Incase you are wondering, the answer is no. This question, can spur on other questions like “What does the bible say about Christmas? Does the bible say we should celebrate Christmas once a year?, I will try to answer these and other questions today. The bible does not contain the word Christmas, but it does talk about it. In order to figure out…
The book of Obadiah is one of the smallest books of the Bible, and often overlooked. Just because it’s small doesn’t mean it is any less important than other books contained in God’s word. Today we will do a short overview of this small book, and touch on why it’s important to us today. If you are interested in doing a free bible study on the book of Obadiah, you can find it on our Short Bible Studies page. OVERVIEW…
I always use verses to relate everything I talk about back to scripture, back to God and His word. But this time I can not. I can’t because I have not been in His word myself.
