Refuge in the Darkness
"I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication. I poured out my complaint before Him; I shewed before Him my trouble. When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then Thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a …
Rejoicing in the Wilderness
"O God, Thou art my God; early will I seek Thee: my soul thirsteth for Thee, my flesh longeth for Thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; to see Thy power and Thy glory, so I have seen Thee in the sanctuary. Because Thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall …
You Can Be Sure, Your Sin Will Find You Out
"And the LORD sent Nathan unto David. And he came unto him, and said unto him, 'There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor. The rich had exceeding many flocks and herds: but the poor had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: …

When He Had Opened the Book
"And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up: and, as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. And there was delivered unto Him the book of the prophet Esaias, and when He had opened the book, He found the place where …

"And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering. And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, 'Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? Why look ye so earnestly on us, as though …

Luke 24:45-49

And ye are …
After God Speaks
This morning, as I read Job 42:1-6, I laughed. Why would I laugh? Because I saw myself in what Job says to the LORD. I have shared with you from Job 42:1-6 before and this is that link. Today I want us to focus on verses 5-6 though... "I have heard of Thee by the …
Unsatisfied Appetite
"All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled. For what hath the wise more than the fool? What hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living? Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and vexation …
In His Time…
"He hath made every thing beautiful in His time: also He hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good …
A Season and a Time
"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and …
The Excelling of Wisdom and Light
"And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the man do that cometh after the king? Even that which hath been already done. Then I saw that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth darkness. The wise man’s eyes are in his head; but the fool walketh in …
Words of Life and Death
"The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. The rich man’s wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit. Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility. He that answereth a matter before he heareth …
When We Come Forth as Gold
First of all I pray all who come here will have a Blessed, HAPPY NEW YEAR. Secondly, my reason for reposting these studies in Job - today at Shiloah Baptist Church I will begin preaching messages in the book of Job; a total of about eight, weather permitting and God willing - through this first …
