In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. He did this with us in mind. At creation, He made sure that He created everything we would need. He did this before we were formed in our mother's womb. God has a plan for each of us and made provision for each and every one of us to fulfill that plan. God provided for Adam and Eve in the garden, and even then, knew they would sin and made a...

How we see God influences and shapes how we see everything else. If our problems seem too big, it is because we do not see how big our God is. The Bible recounts 37 miracles. Each speaks a specific message and conveys the power of the almighty God to those who observed them first-hand and to generations to come. These 37 miracles address every situation and obstacle we face. They speak to a divine...

Put bluntly, there are things in life that we must get over. Something said or done many years ago is not worth carrying forward and fretting over now. We cannot dwell in the past at the expense of our future. It is said that time heals all wounds. That is sometimes true, but often, the wound does not heal because we keep picking at it. Consider, too, that our memories and recollections of events...

We find a word of encouragement in today's text. His word picks us up when we do not have the strength to stand on our own. No matter how weak we may be, God wants us to succeed. No matter our circumstances, God wants to lift us up to help us stand. Our weakness does not disqualify us from God's love and blessing. He will walk with us and carry us if need be, to allow us to make it. He lifts up th...

God created the heavens and the earth. He created it to work together, and much of it functions independently. The food cycle, the water cycle, and the circle of life all work without any intervention from humanity. However, some things require our work. The Bible says God created man in His own image. When He did this, he gave man the job of maintaining and tending the garden. He desired that man...

We talk a lot about spiritual warfare. We have songs that declare our weapons are not guns but prayer. We also talk about God fighting our battles. If God is going to fight our battles, why do we need weapons? Is the fight ours, or is it God's? God has it decided, but we still have to walk through it sometimes. Our praise is NOT a weapon. It is something that we should do because He is God. Paul a...

We must both be filled with the spirit and led by it. Acts 1 and 2 describe the initial infilling of the spirit, but the bible is clear that being filled with the spirit is more than a one-time event. Those observing the believers in the upper room that day supposed them to be drunk because of how they acted. Like being drunk, being filled with the spirit causes (or should cause) us to act differe...

Waypoints are stopping points on a journey are markers that indicate a course change. Our graduates are at a waypoint in their life's journey. They are at the end of a chapter in their lives and must choose the next direction. The place we are in life has a divine purpose and order. Brother Nance advises these graduates to seek God's will and blessing in all they do and lean on God's plan to provi...

In the story of the tortoise and the hare, the tortoise wins the race because he just kept going. Progress is progress, no matter how slow. People who run know the importance of pacing themselves to keep from expending all their energy and having nothing left to continue on—every step we take counts. God notices and honors every step. The people around us also notice. They notice how we keep going...

Today's text was written by a man struggling with contradictions he observed in life. On the one hand, he had learned of the goodness and love of God, but he also saw the wicked prospering while he struggled. He wondered if living for God was worth it when he said, "I have cleansed my heart in vain and washed my hands in innocency." This reflective psalm is written after his breakthrough, which co...

The word full means to contain as much as possible, not lacking anything. It can also mean overflowing and overwhelming. Full can describe satisfaction or being uncomfortable. When Naomi left Bethlehem, she was full of expectation and promise. When she returned, she was empty of hope and future. The truth is that she was still full, but now she was full of disappointment and loss. We can all exper...
