"And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch. Then came the Jews round about Him, and said unto Him, 'How long dost Thou make us to doubt? If Thou be the Christ, tell us plainly'. Jesus answered them, 'I told you, and …

John 9:29-34 – Born Blind, Seeing, Speaking for Jesus
"We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence He is. The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence He is, and He hath opened mine eyes. Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any …

John 7:32-39; 45-46 – Never man spake like this Man.
"The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning Him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take Him. Then said Jesus unto them, 'Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto Him that sent Me. Ye shall seek Me, and shall not find and where I am, ye …

John 3:25-36 – John the Baptist Speaks
"Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying. And they came unto John, and said unto him, 'Rabbi, He that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all come to Him.' John answered and said, 'A man can receive nothing, except …
John 2:13-25
"And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, and found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: and when He had made a scourge of small cords, He drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and …
The Question of David’s Son
The Pharisees claimed to believe the word of God. They had attached many traditions to their beliefs and practices; and probably due to this had become blind to who Jesus was and is. Jesus asks the Pharisees a question they cannot answer. In the following verses there is only one answer you can reach as …
Nineveh’s Greatest Day
Jonah was not only a reluctant prophet; he was a rebellious, running prophet who hated Nineveh, and its inhabitants. Yet, God loved the people and sent them Jonah as a messenger of repentance. Jonah walked into the city and proclaimed, "Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown." Jonah 3:4 We see the greatest revival take …
A Spiritual Awakening
Reading Daniel 7 - 9 today I once again noticed the prayer of Daniel. A prayer of repentance; a prayer of recognition of the holiness and righteousness of God. Though the prayer is for the sins of Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem it seems very powerful even for the Christian of 2018. I share Daniel's prayer …
The Power of Prayer has a “But” Attached
I have been hearing a lot of thought on the matter of prayer. Sometimes it sounds to me as though we always have power in prayer. No matter how we have violated God's word, His law, His ordinances, or His worship; and the way we live our lives; it has sounded to me as though …
The Wait
In our minds "waiting" is a boring, and aggravating task that we sometimes do in a dentist, doctors, or lawyers office. We wait in busy traffic when we drive in cities. My reading for today was Isaiah 39 - 42 and I chose these verses to share with any who desire to read... "Hast thou …
It Is In God’s Hands
I sometimes get to thinking that I have no fear in my life. When I do that something happens; a sickness in the family, a tragedy, a storm; you get the idea; is sent my way, and fear is present. It has occurred to me that when I am walking with the LORD in communion …
The Grace of the LORD
"And therefore will the LORD wait, that He may be gracious unto you, and therefore will He be exalted, that He may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for Him. For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: …
The Only Word of God
"And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? For the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there …
Embracing Aging
I believe what many of the scholars of Scripture have taught over the years, about the time Solomon would have written this book of wisdom - Ecclesiastes - that it was written in the latter years of his life. The following verses are the reason for their conclusion and mine... "Remember now thy Creator in …
Enjoy God’s Blessings
"Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion. Every man also to whom God hath given …
