“The preacher who does not mix with people will never make much of a preacher;” at least that has been said or thought by many. One thing needs to be understood by many preachers of the 21st century; if a preacher has been called by God to preach the Word of God, then we just …

Day Fifty Seven – Judgment By Our Sin
I find it very sad that so many have tried to change the definition of Biblical sin. According to God’s Word – the Bible – sin is a transgression of God’s law. Sin is failure to measure up to God’s glory; His requirements of the law. Nowadays, we hear things like, “Sin is whatever keeps …
Day Fifty Six – The Word of GOD Prospers
There are many times there is debate over the meaning of God’s Word. Even Christians, at times, debate over whether something is “Literal” or “Figurative” or allegorical. For me if God was speaking literal about the first coming of Jesus, and He came just as He has proclaimed; then when He speaks of the second …
Day Fifty Five – The Holy One of Israel
There is one phrase which keeps coming up in the prophecy of Isaiah. It is more than a phrase, it is a statement of the character of God. In Isaiah, as well as in other parts of Scripture we hear of “the Holy One of Israel”. It is a good term, a great reference to …
Day Fifty Four – Jesus Is The Cornerstone
It has been said, that in the building of a building with stone that a “cornerstone” is needed. The size of the cornerstone determines the size of the building, the shape of the building and so forth. So without a cornerstone there is not much direction. Our scheduled Scripture reading this morning is Isaiah 25 …

Day Fifty Two – The LORD Is Salvation
Our reading today is Song of Solomon 7 through Isaiah 11. The reading of Isaiah is interesting, full of Messianic prophecies, and hope for the rest of the world. The language toward Judah and Israel is quite strong and warns them of their need to return to right worship of YHWH [the LORD]. The prophet …
Day Fifty One – The Preacher and Love
Life is complex. Our reading for today is Ecclesiastes 5 through the Song of Solomon 6. If you have read Ecclesiastes, and think you have the problem of life solved, then let me say this as kindly as possible – That is the thought of a fool. Solomon, the wisest of men who ever walked …
Day Fifty – Two Wise Men Who Were Kings
Today's Scripture reading is Proverbs 23 through Ecclesiastes 4. I will be only sharing from the Proverbs beginning with. Chapter 23 – “Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward …

Day Forty Eight – Proverbs and Wisdom
Many wise men have written wise sayings for people to follow. The wisest of men was King Solomon, because God gave him the wisdom to rule his people; that is what he asked for. Then, because of his wise prayer and requests God gave him what he did not ask for; and it was many …

Day Forty Six – City of Peace
The city of Jerusalem, near the East shore of the Mediterranean Sea, is a city which is the source of much conflict; yet its name means, “city of peace” or “teaching peace”. Yet Jerusalem has no peace. It is a source of much conflict because there are three religions which want to claim it as …

Day Forty Four – Our Creator
When it comes to the Psalms we find much to sing and say about our Creator. Some of the intellect of our day believe that all that is just came to pass by chance, or cosmic explosion alone; but where, O where did the materials come from that “caused the explosion”? The Scripture reading today …
