Something New
My first bible was a children’s King James, and I barely read it. The language was a challenge, and I didn’t have anyone in my life back then who knew Jesus enough to help/ encourage me. When I really fell in love with Jesus, my best friend said I should get an NIV study Bible,…
Gratitude Changes Everything
Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life. It’s a strange concept for a natural born worrier to embrace, but gratitude changes everything. When frustration arises… change the channel to gratitude… worry, anger, self-pity… OH! There’s a big one! Those feelings just can’t stand up to a grateful heart.
Life with Jesus
Life with Jesus July 29th, 2023 and ahhh, my friends, I have missed you during this season of grief and restoration. I am just returning from my second retreat in Montana. My first was last August. Timmy, my brother, was hospitalized at the time with a broken femur. It was a catalyst for his death…
Daniel 5
Read Daniel 5 – Mene, mene, tekel, parsin – Here we have Belshazzar, son of Nebuchadnezzar, ruling Babylon and hosting a debaucherous banquet. It must have felt so rebellious when he had the holy goblets brought in with utter disdain, praising his gods of gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood and stone with them. Verses :5-6,…
Daniel 4
Read Daniel 4 – Another dream – It seems as if King Neb is sharing this in hindsight. In verses :2-3 he is praising God and thanking him for all the Lord performed in him… He said he told the dream to his wise men and they could not explain it; then he told Daniel……
Daniel 3
Read Daniel 3 – Forced religion meets true faith and courage – Chapter 3 is a picture of forced religion. The king determined he was to be worshipped by everyone; he determined how he was to be worshipped and set his demands against the threat of death. Our God is nothing like that – Hallelujah!…
Daniel 2 – Part 2
Read Daniel 2:29-49 – But because God wants you to understand… That’s from :30 “And it is not because I am wiser than anyone else that I know the secret of your dream, but because God wants you to understand what was in your heart.” This was a unique situation of course, but God is…
Daniel 2, part 1
Read Daniel 2:1-28 – God is in control. We find suspense, certain death, a vision and rescue all in Chapter 2. So, King Nebuchadnezzar has a dream he wants interpreted by his panel of experts, yet he refuses to tell them what the dream was. When no one can do it he orders the death…
Daniel 1
Read Daniel 1 – The Lord gave, now God, God gave, and God gave… The Lord’s hand over Daniel’s circumstances is shown throughout this chapter (:2,9,17). Daniel begins with a time stamp to show us when and where in history these things occurred, commentaries show this to be 605 b.c. and this is substantiated by…
Daniel
Daniel – History and future unfold. Daniel is the 27th of 39 books in the Old Testament, between Ezekiel and Hosea. You probably want to use the table of contents in your bible to find it. Go ahead and read any introduction your bible includes to get a feel for it. We just finished Zephaniah,…
