Most of life’s problems that you and your children will face are not caused by a lack of information. Most problems arise because of a lack of sound judgment.

After Joshua died Israel became a train wreck.

Why?

They knew about God but they didn’t know God. Here is what Judges 2:10 says about the time after Joshua’s death:

“And all that generation also were gathered to their fathers. And there arose another generation after them who did not know the Lord or the work that he had done for Israe..

Verse: “Let not one of them escape.” — 1ki 18:40
Thought: When the prophet Elijah had received the answer to his prayer, and the fire from heaven had consumed the sacrifice in the presence of all the people, he called upon the assembled Israelites to take the priests of Baal, and sternly cried, “Let not one of them escape.” He took them all down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there. So must it be with our sins-they are all doomed, not one must be preserved. Our darling sin must die. Spare it not..

The Lord Jesus has said that He “came that [we] may have life and have it abundantly.” (John 10:10)

Sadly, some of us live from payday to payday, worrying that we might not have enough until the next salary payment arrives. Brothers, if you are like this, I would like to encourage you: Stop being a payday Christian!

Verse: “Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength.” — isa 26:4
Thought: Seeing that we have such a God to trust to, let us rest upon him with all our weight; let us resolutely drive out all unbelief, and endeavour to get rid of doubts and fears, which so much mar our comfort; since there is no excuse for fear where God is the foundation of our trust. A loving parent would be sorely grieved if his child could not trust him; and how ungenerous, how unkind is our co..

Top 7 Bible Verses About Tomorrow

29/06/2016 0 Comment

Here are seven Bible verses in reference to tomorrow.
Proverb 27:1 “Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.”It’s natural to talk about tomorrow and things you’ve planned to do but no one knows if tomorrow will even come for us. We do know that everyone has a day appointed unto death and that judgment will follows (Heb 9:27), so this side of the grave we must be sure we’re in a right relationship with God. We can boast about our eternity because of the Savior’s work..
