31 Faith is the Substance Hoped for
Here hope is described as the confident assurance of what is hoped for is genuinely going to happen. The word hope here describes an expectation or belief and assurance that what we are assured of happening in God’s Word will actually occur. There is no doubt that God will do exactly as He says He will perform. The author is describing faith as a principle that deals with what is yet future and unseen. Future events described in the Bible are made sure to us by faith the same as past historical events must be taken by faith as actually having …
The Mindblowing Detail In The Joseph Story Everyone Misses
By Freeman Chambers Consider this: The two servants of Pharaoh put into prison with Joseph are not needed for the story to be complete. For Joseph to be released from jail and brought into Pharaoh’s court, at least one person had to experience Joseph’s dream interpretation skills so that when Pharaoh had a perplexing dream, they would know who to recommend. But you only actually need one person to do that. The winetaster in this story saw that Joseph was accurate in his interpretations, and told his master. This brought an end to Joseph’s time in jail, and led to …
Iran to receive second batch of enriched uranium for Tehran nuclear reactor
08/12/2018 Iran will soon receive a second batch of 20 percent-enriched uranium which has been kept in Russia under the nuclear deal and now will be used at the Tehran nuclear reactor, Behrouz Kamalvandi, the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization spokesman, said on Saturday. Under the Iran nuclear deal, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) Tehran agreed to get rid of medium-enriched uranium and drastically decrease its stockpile of low-enriched uranium. In April, Iran warned that, in the event the United States withdrew from the JCPOA, it would be technically prepared to produce higher-enriched uranium, which it was able to do before the deal took effect. “When …
The Broken Vessel..
Really hard sometimes to smile when your heart is crying.. I can relate to the broken and I can also see God has chosen all us broken souls for a reason.. The Broken Vessel.. “Take me,” cried the gold one. “I’m shiny and bright, “I’m of great value and I do things just right.” But God passes by the gold, silver, brass, crystal, and wooden urns, and chooses the vessel of clay. The poem explains why.. Then the Master looked down and saw a vessel of clay.. Empty and broken, it helplessly lay. No hope had the vessel that the …
Psalms 25:4 “Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.”
Psalms 25:4 “Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.” Do you ever feel like you’re going in circles and not making any progress? Are the constant appeals of our world pulling you in a million different ways, causing you to question if you’re headed in the right direction? Wouldn’t it be awesome to wake up every morning and be assured you’re on the right path towards your goals? To know with certainty that you’re headed in the right direction? To feel confident with each step, without constantly questioning yourself? A priceless nugget of truth addresses our desire …
The Storms of Life
Regardless of what caused our hardships, the Father works in them to benefit us and to bless others The Storms of Life Genesis 50:15-21 15 And when Joseph’s brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him. 16 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying, 17 So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, …
Why Christ?
Dr. Mike Murphy “All religions are the same” “Any religion can get you to heaven” “Every religion worships the same god” We have all heard these statements over and over. We hear many discard and diminish religion, telling us that religion has no place in society. We hear many claim that religion is just a way to control men, to manipulate the world in a direction that religion wants it to move. We hear many tell us that this world has moved beyond religion, no longer in need of religion’s gods. And we hear many tell us that religion is …
God’s Purpose in Difficult Times
Though we’d rather skip them, God has a purpose in the storms of life God’s Purpose in Difficult Times Romans 8:28-29 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. If we could design an ideal life, most of us would skip over times of hardship. But Scripture teaches us that God has a purpose …
“The Son of Man hath power on earth to forgive sins.” Matthew 9:6
“The Son of Man hath power on earth to forgive sins.” Matthew 9:6 Behold one of the great Physician’s mightiest arts: he has power to forgive sin! While here he lived below, before the ransom had been paid, before the blood had been literally sprinkled on the mercy-seat, he had power to forgive sin. Hath he not power to do it now that he hath died? What power must dwell in him who to the utmost farthing has faithfully discharged the debts of his people! He has boundless power now that he has finished transgression and made an end of sin. …
“He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.” Mark 16:9
“He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.” Mark 16:9 Mary of Magdala was the victim of a fearful evil. She was possessed by not one devil only, but seven. These dreadful inmates caused much pain and pollution to the poor frame in which they had found a lodging. Hers was a hopeless, horrible case. She could not help herself, neither could any human succour avail. But Jesus passed that way, and unsought, and probably even resisted by the poor demoniac, he uttered the word of power, and Mary of Magdala became a trophy …

Pity Those Without Christ
Pity Those Without Christ Awake to a deeper sense of the sorrowful state of those who are without Christ. We are often reminded of the many who are without food or clothing or school or church. Let us pity them, and help them, as far as we can. But let us never forget that there are people whose state is far more pitiable. Who are they? The people without Christ! Have we relatives without Christ? Let us feel for them, pray for them, speak to the King about them, strive to recommend the gospel to them. Let us leave no …
Fearless
Fearless “…then all the disciples forsook Him and fled.” -Matthew 26:56 Grown men are only able to act as though they are not afraid. It has been said that courage is managing your fear. In the movies, when the brave, leading man is close to danger, he appears as though nothing can move him. However, fear can bring out some rather unpredictable behavior, even among those who are seemingly fearless. If you care in any way about your welfare and safety, you will be fearful at some point in your life. Fear, at times, can be a good thing. It …
