LYING TO OUR FACE! They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons; they poured out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was polluted with blood. —Psalm 106:37-38             Wickedness fills our land with the blood of our sons and daughters slaughtered in the womb.  Demonic deception and blindness have kept people from the truth of what abortion is— the killing of life.  Millions upon millions and millions more have been slaughtered in the last 50 years.             I have never heard a child say of a pregnant woman that she is having a fetus.  I…

MY SIN IS GONE! He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us. —Psalm 103:10-12 You will again have compassion on us; you will tread our sins underfoot and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea. —Micah 7:19 He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world. —I John…

LIVE AS YOU EXPECT HIS EVER-NEAR RETURN! Besides this you know the time, that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed. The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light. Let us walk properly as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in quarreling and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires. —Romans 13:11-14             Our Lord’s coming should have…

SING PRAISES TO OUR LORD GOD ALMIGHTY! Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises!  Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre, with the lyre and the sound of melody!With trumpets and the sound of the horn make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord! —Psalm 98:4-6 Praise the Lord.  Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. —Psalm 106:1 Praise the Lord.  Praise the Lord, my soul.  I will praise the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live. —Psalm 146:1-2             This morning, worship in song and praise our Lord for He is…

BEWARE!  OUR LORD GOD ALMIGHTY WILL AVENGE! O LORD, God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, shine forth! Rise up, O judge of the earth; repay to the proud what they deserve! O LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked exult? They pour out their arrogant words; all the evildoers boast. —Psalm 94:1-4 Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways! “For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor?” “Or who has given a gift to him that he might be repaid?” For from him and through him and to him…

WE WILL SOON BE GONE FROM THIS EARTH— BE READY! Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. You return man to dust and say, “Return, O children of man!” For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night. You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning: in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers…. For all our days pass away under your wrath; we bring our…

DEATH IS COMING TO ALL— SPEAK THE GOOD NEWS OF JESUS TO THEM! I will sing of the steadfast love of the LORD, forever; with my mouth I will make known your faithfulness to all generations. —Psalm 89:1 The heavens are yours; the earth also is yours; the world and all that is in it, you have founded them. —Psalm 89:11 What man can live and never see death? —Psalm 89:48 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”  How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard?…

LISTEN AND YIELD TO WHAT HE SAYS! I will listen to what God the Lord says; he promises peace to his people, his faithful servants— but let them not turn to folly. —Psalm 85:8 Teach me your way, Lord, that I may rely on your faithfulness; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name. —Psalm 86:11             Have you listened to what God the Lord is saying to you today?  He is telling you the way to go.  Will you yield to Him?  Are you relying on His faithfulness or your own strength and ideas?  Is your heart divided or are you seeking to apply the greatest command that Jesus…

FELLOW FOLLOWER OF JESUS— WE ARE SAFE AND SECURE IN HIM! Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of…

BE FOCUSED ON THE ETERNAL, NOT THE TEMPORAL I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. —Romans 8:18 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.—II Corinthians 4:16-18             Where is our focus?  Where are we fixing our eyes?  Are we focusing on…
