David was willing to stand for Israel and his God! O how we need such courage in this hour! So many things tried to dissuade David from his stand! There was a willingness in him as he took his stand for God's people.

When God calls you gracious, He sees you as a treasure, He delights in you, regardless of your status or behavior. But the glory of God is found in grace - free and unmerited favor, manifested in God's love for us. God, sending Christ to bring us grace, this unmerited favor; salvation from sin, divine blessings, and eternal life to mention just a few! 2 Co 12:9-10 And he said unto me, My grace is...

Today we are invited to the table of the Lord. It is a special invitation and important that we "never forget" this supper that we have been blessed to attend. Holy Communion is not a ritual to be observed, but a blessing to be received and remembered throughout all of our lives.

O God, awaken our hearts to this moment in time, that we might rehearse the goodness of God and be strengthen by the things that you have already done in our lives. Remember in Ex. 33 when You passed by Moses, You proclaimed: "I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on w...

Hear the words of Jesus when He said..."I will build My Church; and the 'gates of hell' shall not prevail against it." Jesus is saying, should "the gates of hell" come against My Church, it will not prevail! Prevail means "more powerful than opposing forces - victorious! The enemy may buffet us, and seek to harass us with the "cares of life,' but we are triumphant in the redemption of our Savior!...

Several questions are posed today as we remember our Lord and Saviour! 1. How do we witness His love to others? (Acts 1:8) 2. What am I spiritually passionate about? (Luke 12:34) 3. Is my love for God "First Place" in my heart and life? (Luke 6:45) 4. And how full of joy am I? (John 5:11-14) These are sobering questions as we pause to sincerely think upon our love for our God, His Son, and the pow...

And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest. Matthew 21:9

Many good things can result from the trials and temptations we face. One great result, if we allow it, is that we are being conformed into the image of Christ if we respond patiently without anger, blaming others, etc.

"Thou art worthy" for Thou was slain and hast redeemed us to God by Thy blood and hast made us unto our God kings and priests! The voices came forth from ten thousand times ten thousand and thousands of thousands!"

Our soul needs a revival of joy, the joy that Jesus promised. John 15:11 "Jesus said: These things I have spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full!" Sometimes we evaluate happiness with joy, but the joy Jesus gives supersedes any other kind of happiness because it lasts, it never fades, it is always available to us if we will receive it!

When our Nation Celebrates a Holiday, we can always see a Spiritual Opportunity. The Awesome Freedom that God has given to us in our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ! Today we honor our God-minded forefathers who set in motion a nation whose motto is ”In God we Trust” – We are One Under God! We also honor every man and every women that has gone to battle for the Freedom we have in our Country.

The phrase "Upright in Heart" refers to the godly person being one who is unbending and standing straight up for the Lord and for His Word. Straight up in their lives, unbending in their convictions, unwavering in their Christian conduct and faith. Josh. 1:7 "Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: tur...

Today's message is about a Father, our heavenly Father which found a young man who loved Him, walked in His statutes and made sacrifices and offerings unto Him. God gave Solomon a dream about the time he had arrived at kingship.

Our first response to an attack of the enemy/satan is to do what the King did to David, He tried to put on the amour of the day to protect David. The world’s way will never conquer, what we need is the Amour of God! It may look like we are in an “unmatched” battle. We must not be like King Saul and respond with “dismay and great fear!” Let us be reminded of David’s first response as He faced the g...

1– God is furious with sin 2– The Lord is Good 3– We have a Strong Hold in the day of trouble 4– He knows us when we Trust in Him! Everyone is vying for Acceptance ... O the power of God’s Word: “He has Accepted us in the Beloved, the family of God!” As Accepted in Christ, we are part of the Kingdom of God – and hear what the Kingdom of God houses – “For the Kingdom of God is not meat and drink; b...

Today we look at the assistance, the help of our God as we journey through this life that He has given to us. It is important to remember that in the midst of God's fury of sin, He continues to love us. We find assistance, that is help many times in the scriptures. Isaiah the prophet tells us, "For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee." O the bl...

“The sea obeys His command, the mountains quake, the hills melt, and the earth burns at His Presence!” His Word says: “Who can abide in the fierceness of His Anger?” This is a strong lesson that declares the heart of our Lord! It restores an awesome fear of the Lord” who loves His People, sent His Son, in our time, and allows His Love to suppress His Anger at a rebellious nation. Yet we will see t...

Consider the Cup, All that was in the Cup, the nails, the crown of thorns, the stripes – all emitting His Precious Blood, the Blood that would cover our sins! Here in Luke He takes the Cup up twice: first as He mentions His desire for them; and after dinner as He tells them, “The Cup is the New Testament in My Blood, which is shed for you.” What a moment it must of been at the Table of the Lord. I...

Ordinary people with a willing heart, touched by the will of God fulfilled the heart of God, and salvation became a gift to all mankind! "Obedience" is not always the easy path, but it is the most rewarding journey anyone will ever take...It is a journey of trust and faith as God moves among humanity to perform His will giving thanks for our moves among humanity to perform His will. Giving thanks...

There is Refuge in Christ for we are able to enter into the Presence of God through Jesus’ Blood and find the Anchor that is steadfast. An Anchor is used to secure the Ship, to keep it from drifting away in stormy weather. Without an Anchor, the ship will slowly drift away with the wind and strong current. If it is not Anchored it will put the vessel and the crew at great risk. The Anchor will sec...

God is not to be worshiped merely because of the temporal, material and physical blessings of life, but simply for Who He is. O Church, let us not be weary in well doing for in due season we will walk upon the "High Places" and sing the songs of Zion!

We celebrate this glorious day because Jesus was the victor over the enemies of His Father God! The devil's defeat is pending, it will come, and we will sing togther in God's eternal home.

These are Jesus' final days on earth as He makes preparation that leads to His moment of sacrifice. He continues strong about "His Father's Business" which is our eternal salvation. Think of the anguish that must have been in Jesus' heart as the final preparations were being made for His journey to the cross. He would ride triumphantly into Jerusalem, but His heart must have been heavy.

Jesus spoke to the religious leaders of the day and asked this question, "Did ye never read in the scriptures, the Stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the Head of the Corner, this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes?" Matt. 21:42

We can draw examples of Jesus' cleansing the Temple for we are the Temple of God. Jesus suffered the Cross that we might "house" the Triune God, His Son, and Power of the Holy Ghost!
