Not for Lack

When you look at the relationship between Leah and Rachel, on the surface you may feel bad for Leah because you read of Jacob’s great love for Rachel. Read Genesis 29. Rachel was younger, “had a lovely figure and was beautiful,” while Leah “had weak eyes” (v. 17 NIV). Plainly put, “Jacob was in love … Continue reading Not for Lack →

All We’ll Ever Want

We always say if we have something, we will be forever content. For some people, the something is a someone. For some people, the something is a particular sum of money or a house or some other items. In reality these things are never enough. We always crave for more. We always have this void … Continue reading All We’ll Ever Want →

Top of Your Lungs

When you yell at the top of your lungs, people pay attention. It is loud. It is usually uninhibited. When I think of someone screaming at the top of their lungs, I consider two things: screaming in delight after receiving some great news or screaming in fear when in danger. These moments are typically moments … Continue reading Top of Your Lungs →

We Will Do It

Jeremiah 42 discusses something that we can see again and again in life. The people asked Jeremiah to pray to God for them. They wanted to have their prayers answered. They told the prophet that if he would seek out the Lord for them, they would do whatever God said. The problem was when they … Continue reading We Will Do It →

Foolish Disguise

Every time I read today’s verse, I ask myself why Jehoshaphat would even go with Ahab into the battle with this request. Ahab decides to disguise himself so he would not be recognized. Yet he tells Jehoshaphat to wear the royal robes so everyone can tell that he is the king. Something happens though—things do … Continue reading Foolish Disguise →

Begged for Guidance

Have you ever begged for something? Perhaps when you were a child, you begged your parents for a trending toy. When you neared driving age, you begged to learn how to drive and then when you passed your test, you begged to borrow the family car. Have you ever begged God for something? Some people … Continue reading Begged for Guidance →

Watch the Lord’s Victory

In 2 Chronicles, it says that the people would “not even need to fight.” They were to “stand still and watch the LORD’s victory.” Sometimes we do not like to “stand still.” Most people are okay with watching television, but when it comes to our own lives, we think we have to do something. We … Continue reading Watch the Lord’s Victory →

Deeply Committed

Jehoshaphat was deeply committed to the Lord and His ways. He showed this in many ways. He removed the pagan shrines. He removed the Asherah poles. But he didn’t stop there. He gathered his officials, the Levites, and others, and sent them off with copies of the Book of the Law. They went traveling around … Continue reading Deeply Committed →

At the same time Asa brutally oppressed some of the people.” – 2 Chronicles 16:10 [NIV] King Asa did “what was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God” (2 Chronicles 14:2 NIV). … Continue reading Take the Blame →

Bronze Shields

“In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem. He carried off the treasures of the temple of the LORD and the treasures of the royal palace. He took everything, including all the gold shields Solomon had made. So King Rehoboam made bronze shields to replace them and assigned these to … Continue reading Bronze Shields →
