• GENERATIONAL IMPACT!

    The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law. —Deuteronomy 29:29 He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our ancestors to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children.  Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands. —Psalm 78:5-7              There are some things, many things, that the Lord our God has chosen not to…

  • GOOD NEWS!  JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD!

    As the crowds increased, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It asks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah. —Luke 11:29 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. —Matthew 12:40              Today is Easter of 2026— resurrection day!  We celebrate Who Jesus is and what He has done.  His resurrection proves He is the Son of God— “Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God—the gospel…

  • PRAY!

    One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.” —Luke 11:1 The disciples of Jesus wanted Him to teach them how to pray.  The parallel passages differ, but they also have commonalities.  Remember, this prayer is in response to His disciples wanting to be taught to pray. He said to them, “When you pray, say: “Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come.  Give us each day our daily bread.  Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.  And lead us not into temptation.” —Luke…

  • REJECTING THE MESSAGE OF JESUS’ FOLLOWERS IS REJECTING JESUS AND HIS FATHER

    For the Lord your God detests anyone who does these things, anyone who deals dishonestly. —Deuteronomy 25:16 “Whoever listens to you listens to me; whoever rejects you rejects me; but whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.” —Luke 10:16 However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” —Luke 10:20 It is God who judges: He brings one down, he exalts another. —Psalm 75:7              Have you listened to Jesus, the One whom our Father sent? It is written— “And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world” (I John…

  • LOOK FOR THOSE WELCOMING JESUS

    As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem. And he sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan village to get things ready for him; but the people there did not welcome him, because he was heading for Jerusalem. —Luke 9:51-53 But when you enter a town and are not welcomed, go into its streets and say, ‘Even the dust of your town we wipe from our feet as a warning to you. Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God has come near.’  I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that…

  • HAVE A PROPER PERSPECTIVE!

    When I tried to understand all this, it troubled me deeply till I entered the sanctuary of God; then I understood their final destiny.  Surely you place them on slippery ground; you cast them down to ruin.  How suddenly are they destroyed, completely swept away by terrors!  They are like a dream when one awakes; when you arise, Lord, you will despise them as fantasies.  When my heart was grieved and my spirit embittered, I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you.  Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand.  You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take…
