Paul is about to end his letter to Timothy in the same way he started it -to challenge Timothy to “wage the good warfare” (I Tim 1:18). As his old hands are about to lay his pen down, roll the letter up and dispatch it to his prodigy, he writes the words, “fight the goodContinue reading “Hang on! We’re going to see the VICTORY!”

Does your heart need a reset to hope this Monday morning?
The Apostle Paul is writing to Timothy about how the church should conduct itself, but his words in 5:6 cause me to pause. “But she who lives in pleasure is dead while she lives.” (1 Tim 5:6) She who lives for herself and her own pleasure is dead.

I took this picture
As I often do, when I look at a beautiful sunset, I wonder what the sky will look like when Jesus comes “in the clouds” (Dan 7:13) I’m drawn to the details of prophecy. Are you? In Daniel chapter seven, Daniel recounts a vision he had back during Belshazzar’s reign. It is prophetic in natureContinue reading “I took this picture”
Do you know what it is?
Most of you who follow this page aren’t caught up in carousing and drunkenness (see Luke 21:24,NKJV) but there’s this other thing… This other, sneaky thing. Did you read the verse referenced above? Did you see it? The evil one seems to use IT so effectively against us, and it’s effects are often just asContinue reading “Do you know what it is?”
