Jeremiah’s message in Lamentations seems to have taken place after the city of Jerusalem is defeated, the walls broken down, the temple destroyed, and the precious articles for temple worship taken away. We can see Jeremiah’s being known as “the weeping prophet” as we read the laments that are written there. Ezekiel speaks to the …

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 Forty Seven – …Mercy, Mercy, and Mercy…
Our Scripture reading today is Psalm 134 through Psalm 146 near finishing the reading of the Psalms, and by reading 13 Psalms today. There is much mention of the term “Mercy” in the Bible; and in Psalm 136 it is framed in every verse; with the phrase, “For His mercy endureth forever”. And so it …

Day Forty – Songs For The Sons of Korah
The Scripture reading for today is Psalms 42 - 55. Psalms 42 - 49 are titled as a song for the sons of Korah; with the exception of Psalm 43. My personal thought on that Psalm is that it is probably included as a song for the sons of Korah. In Numbers 16 while Israel …
Day Thirty Three – Look Again
Our reading today is Nehemiah 11 - Esther 10. The commentary this morning will deal solely with Esther. Esther is a book of the Bible that never names the name of God. God is not even mentioned in person; however the work, power and presence of God is clearly seen by those who have the …
Day Twenty Six – GOD Deals With Evil In His People
The reading for today is 2 Kings 20 - 1 Chronicles 7. Blessings as you read. In reading through the Bible in 90 days there are passages which, to be honest, I sometimes find it difficult to read; and today’s reading was no exception. I am speaking particularly of 1 Chronicles 1 – 9 which …

Day Nineteen – GOD Is Not Contained in a Box
We have some Christian leaders today saying to us, that God is bound to answer our prayers, answer our demands, and so forth; maybe not in so strong a fashion but many times in more subtle ways. One thing we need to realize as Children of our GOD is that God is obligated to us …

Day Twelve -Getting Ready
The Scripture reading for today is Numbers 28 - Deuteronomy 5. The tribes of Rueben, Gad, and half tribe of Manasseh are given the land on the east side of Jordan; after they vow for the military men to cross over and fight for and with the rest of their brethren. Things are settled concerning …
Day Five – GOD Calls a Deliverer
Today's reading is from Exodus 3 - 15. From the death of Joseph we go to Exodus, showing us that death is not the end. In Exodus we find that God hears the cries of the children of Israel crying for help. He hears their cry, prepares a man from Egypt – one of their …
That Great Day
"For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. But unto you that fear My name shall …
Turn Us Unto Thee, O LORD
"Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach. Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens. We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows. We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold unto us. Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest. We have …
Time of Jacob’s Trouble
"The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, ‘Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying,’ ‘Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book. For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring again the captivity of My people Israel and Judah, saith the LORD: and …
The Visitation
"Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it. And though they say, ‘The LORD liveth;’ surely they swear falsely. O …
The LORD, The First and The Last
"Keep silence before Me, O islands; and let the people renew their strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come near together to judgment. Who raised up the righteous man from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and made him rule over kings? He gave …
Mercy On Jacob
101319 Mercy On Jacob "For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house …
