I often hear it said that God loves us so He saved us. It’s true. We read in John 3:16: “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life” (ESV). He loves us. He saves us. However, we need to … Continue reading For His Sake

Exposed
“For all of our faults and flaws are in full view to You. Everything we want to hide, You search out and expose by the radiance of Your face” (Psalm 90:8 TPT). Everything we want to hide. The truth is that even though we try to hide things, even though we think we can hide … Continue reading Exposed
No One Like You
Read Psalm 86. Today, we are looking at how there is no one like our God. First place in our lives should be reserved for Him. He alone deserves all honor, glory, and praise. In Isaiah 46:9, we read: “Remember the former things of old; for I am God, and there is no other; I … Continue reading No One Like You
Goodness of God
Read Psalm 86. Today’s verse says: “Lord, you are so good to me, so kind in every way and ready to forgive” (v. 5a TPT). Today, we will focus on God being “so good to me” and you! When you hear the word “good" or the word “goodness,” what comes to mind? For many, the … Continue reading Goodness of God
Forever in Your Sanctuary
Forever is a very long time. The Psalmist writes in Psalm 61 about a request: “Let me live forever in Your sanctuary.” This is not a simple request. This request is for a sinful man to spend forever with God, Holy God, in His presence. Despite it not being a simple request, it is a … Continue reading Forever in Your Sanctuary
My Song
The song of Moses and Miriam is great. The Israelites were in awe over what the Lord did to lead them out of Egyptian slavery. This song was sung by Moses and the Israelites as an offering of praise and a declaration of the greatness of God. The song is a holy song, one to … Continue reading My Song
True Encounter
Could you look at God? Could you look right into His face? As Moses stands in the presence of God, facing the bush that would not be consumed by the fire, he hears someone speaking. The voice says that the ground ahead is holy; Moses had to remove his sandals. But this encounter does not … Continue reading True Encounter
Return to Me
People many times say that God is hiding from them, that they cannot tell if He’s around. The truth is that God never moved—you did! Again and again, we read in the Bible of people who fall short, people who do not walk with God. A holy God cannot look sin in the face. Even … Continue reading Return to Me
Stuck Eggs
When I came home with the groceries, I was excited to have an extra set of hands, along with my kiddos, to carry in the bags. Of course, just after I yelled, “Don’t break the eggs,” the bag that contained the eggs and bread was knocked over. Despite the kids trying to stop the fall, … Continue reading Stuck Eggs
As He
As I read through Genesis, I love to read about Abraham and Sarah and the promise God made to them. In Genesis 21, it states that the Lord visited Sarah. In verse 1, we read, “The LORD visited Sarah AS HE HAD SAID.” Then it continues, “And the LORD did to Sarah AS HE HAD … Continue reading As He
