1Sa 11:4 Then came the messengers to Gibeah of Saul, and told the tidings in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept. 1Sa 11:5 And, behold Saul came after the herd out of the field; and Saul said, What aileth the people that they weep? And they…

Sometimes you need to call out people on your own team
Gal 2:11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. Gal 2:12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision. Gal 2:13 And the…
What you say can mean different things to different people. Be aware.
Every time I read the Holy Bible I am utterly blown away by how much wisdom can be gathered by reading it over and over again, more slowly, with intention. After all, in Matthew 7:7, Jesus tells us to seek and we shall find. Today, in what isn’t a random occurrence (because I was seeking),…
Even God says you just might be what you are because of what you think
I am sure that many of you have heard many sayings such as, “You are what you eat…” or “you become the people that you hang around with…” and so forth. The idiom we want to focus on today is “You are what you think.” This is not some new age notion. ‘New Age’ stuff…
It is your duty to think like a king, whether the world gives you the title or not.
Remember our other blog post that addressed the importance of reading the Bible slowly? If not, you can check it out here. Now, read our passage today from the book of Hebrews, Heb 2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory…
Yes, the Holy Bible is full of emotion.
Read this passage from the book of Malachi very slowly, and with emotion, Mal 1:6 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that…
How inspired OR inspiring are you?
All of us know people who struggle to get out of bed early to get the day started or accomplish a task. In fact, every single one of us, myself included, has been in this position at one time or another. Really, what it all comes down to is not as simple as being motivated,…
Where do you find your strength?
Psa 18:2 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. Psa 18:3 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine…
This famous speaker didn’t speak deceitfully…
1Th 2:2 But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention. 1Th 2:3 For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile: 1Th 2:4 But as…
Beware the words of people… they may seek to deceive you
I do realize that most of the time we write on this blog to help people use their words differently to bring upon a change for the better. These changes include how to show compassion, how to discern with more accuracy between good and bad, and how to write words and say words that bring…
