For who is like me, and who can challenge me? What ruler can oppose my will?” —Jeremiah 49:19 For who is like me, and who can challenge me? What ruler can oppose my will?” —Jeremiah 50:44 The obvious answer is none! Nobody can oppose the will of the Lord God Almighty… nobody! There are none who can challenge Him. There is nobody else like Him. So, do you think He will have His way today and every day this planet exists and beyond? Of course He will! So take courage and do what He desires. We are on the winning side and are headed to our home in Heaven. Fellow…

“There is no peace,” says the Lord, “for the wicked.” —Isaiah 48:22 The wicked that will not turn to the Lord Jesus Christ and follow Him will not have lasting peace on earth and will not have peace at all after they die. The Lord is warning those who will not follow Him— the Creator and Sustainer of all things. None are escaping His noticed. Every action, thought and intent of the heart are known to Him. Those who kill babies in the womb— He knows! Those who kill babies at birth— He Knows! Those who kill children— He knows! Those who kill the elderly—He knows! Those who kill anyone—…

But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. —Hebrews 3:13 Sin is a deception, a wicked trick of the adversary. It promises pleasure, but it is a short-lived pleasure that can harden a person’s heart. Right from the beginning we see this in Adam and Eve’s life. Eve was deceived by the deceptive devil and had the short-lived please of eating the forbidden fruit. Adam joined her in eating the fruit and their short-lived pleasure impacted their hearts away from the Lord God Almighty and not toward Him. He is the One who sought Adam…

The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God. —Hebrews 1:3 Jesus “expresses the very character of God” because that is who He is! The Jews wanted to kill him on numerous occasions because of who He said He was— “So the Jewish leaders began harassing Jesus for breaking the Sabbath rules. But Jesus replied “My Father is always working, and so am I.” So the Jewish leaders tried all the harder to find a way to kill him. For he not only broke the Sabbath, he called God his Father, thereby making himself equal with God” (John 5:16-18). Also in John 10:32-32 we read that…

Neither the king nor his attendants showed any signs of fear or repentance at what they heard. —Jeremiah 36:24 What a sad situation when leaders of a nation show no fear toward what the Lord God Almighty has to say— even when He is warning that judgment is coming! They not only don’t fear, but they are unwilling to repent from their wicked ways to follow His ways. The destruction they bring upon their nation is their own doing for disobedience. How dare such puny men to throw their fist up in defiance toward the Lord God Almighty? They are lost in their selfish lusts, blinded by the small thoughts…

He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. —Titus 3:5 Because of his grace he declared us righteous and gave us confidence that we will inherit eternal life.” Titus 3:7 You could not do anything righteous to be saved. You were wicked, unrighteous and headed for Hell. There was nothing you could do about you situation in your own strength. You were spiritually dead in your sins (Ephesians 2:1-3). Spiritually dead people have no life. You were doomed for an eternity separated from God— a horrible destination. So is the fate of all those who do not know Jesus. The drowning man…

These older women must train the younger women. —Titus 2:4 In the same way, encourage the young men to live wisely. —Titus 2:6 How are we equipping the next generation? Are you older women training the younger women? Are we older men encouraging the younger men? How is this taking place in your own life? If you are a younger woman, is there an older woman that is training you in walking faithfully in the Lord Jesus? If you are an older woman are you training a younger woman? If you are a younger man is there an older man who is encouraging you in your walk with the Lord…

And work for the peace and prosperity of the city where I sent you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, for its welfare will determine your welfare. — Jeremiah 29:7 I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. —I Timothy 2:1-2 God, through Jeremiah, told the people to pray for the city where they are sent as exiles because the welfare of that city will determine…

You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that! —II Timothy 3:1-5…

A servant of the Lord must not quarrel but must be kind to everyone, be able to teach, and be patient with difficult people. Gently instruct those who oppose the truth. Perhaps God will change those people’s hearts, and they will learn the truth. Then they will come to their senses and escape from the devil’s trap. For they have been held captive by him to do whatever he wants. —II Timothy 2:24-26 Are you a servant of the Lord Jesus Christ? Then you must not quarrel but be kind to everyone. You are to be a teacher and be patient with difficult people. You are to gently instruct those…
