You Have Lacked Nothing Today’s verse speaks of a time when God’s people were wandering around in the wilderness. Even when they were not always walking with their eyes fixed on God, even when their hearts were easily swayed, God provided for them. During a time when they grumbled and complained again and again, God … Continue reading You Have Lacked Nothing

In Silence
I'm currently reading Exodus. In Chapter 14, I read this-- And Moses said to the people, "Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will work for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again. The LORD will fight for you, and you only … Continue reading In Silence
Be a Blessing
Be a Blessing Abraham was promised three things. God said He would make him a great nation. God said He would make his name great. God said He would bless him. We remember these promises. Again and again there is mention of this covenant, the Abrahamic Covenant. What a beautiful promise! What an awesome covenant! … Continue reading Be a Blessing
A Banquet of Praise
I’ve been to many banquets over the years; each one is a great celebration. In today’s verse, it speaks about “a banquet of praise.” The NIV says, “Sacrifice thank offerings to God.” Now today we do not sacrifice thank offerings like they once did; however, we still should offer praise to God. He alone deserves … Continue reading A Banquet of Praise
Don’t Hold Back
We see many people not hold back. Many times it is when someone is having a tantrum or voicing an opinion. Then there are those who don’t hold back at the all-you-can-eat buffet. There are those who don’t hold back when they are racing or competing in sports. Not holding back means doing it all. … Continue reading Don’t Hold Back
Like He Owned It
Pride is poison. For most people, it slowly seeps in without much notice until it is too late. Uzziah became strong because of all of the machines he had for protection. They used the machines on the towers and on the corners to shoot arrows and big stones at enemies. Uzziah sought the Lord and … Continue reading Like He Owned It
Who Can
There are questions that are so large yet so simple. In Psalm 106, it is asked, “Who can ever praise him enough?” We all know the answer is no one. No one can ever praise God enough for who he is or for what he has done. If we ask ourselves if we praise God … Continue reading Who Can
We Hate This Manna
The Israelites were in the desert hungry and God promised to rain down bread from heaven. The Lord provided for the Israelites and they called this manna. As time progressed, they were tired of the manna. It still was suitable for food. It still could satisfy their hunger needs. The problem was they wanted something … Continue reading We Hate This Manna
Insignificant to You
A big question stood out when I was reading Numbers 16 and the account of Korah’s greed. Does it seem insignificant to you? What a question for us to consider in life. Here Korah and others were aligned together with their selfishness fueling the way. God had given them great positions and blessed them well. … Continue reading Insignificant to You
Gold Calf Assistance
Providing gold calf assistance is not something we should strive to do in life, but sadly it happens very quickly. Every time I read Exodus 32, I get upset to see how fast Aaron was to lead the people to sin greatly without hesitation. We do not read of any attempt to sway the people. … Continue reading Gold Calf Assistance
