Who Is He?
Discovering the true answer to the question, “Who is He?” is more monumental, believe it or not, than discovering a cure for cancer. Ten thousand years from now, you’ll agree–wherever you are. […]

April 18, 2025 — Nehemiah’s Prayer
Why is prayer so strategic? We’re talking to the Person who knows everything and can do anything! The prayer of Nehemiah (Neh 1:5-11) may be divided into three parts, clustering in each section around a pronoun: You (vv 5-6a), we (6b-9), and You (vv 10-11). He begins, “Lord God of heaven, O great and awesome God, […]

JESUS ONLY: “…they saw no one but Jesus only” (Mt 17:8). “The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him” (Jn 1:18). “He who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords” (1 Tim 6:15). A man was driving through the town […]

The Dress Rehearsal
A week before commemorating Christ’s death, many Christians observe Palm Sunday. Palm fronds are handed out to remind people of Jesus’ triumphal entry. If you care to check, you’ll see how His arrival exactly fulfilled Zechariah’s prophecy (Zechariah 9:9), made five centuries before. Every other time the Lord came to Jerusalem He was hardly noticed.

April 17, 2025 — A Friend In High Places
Prayer lifts us up to God. But it does more than that. It brings God into our circumstances, too. It’s essential to learn to “weep with those who weep” (Rom 12:15). But it’s not enough to only weep. Rivers of tears have flowed from human eyes out into the desert of lethargic inaction. But before Nehemiah lifts […]

CHRIST the SUPREME BLOOD DONOR: “…the precious blood of Christ” (1 Pet 1:19). Walter S. Patrick links the following verses for us. 1. We are saved through faith in His blood (Rom 3:25). 2. We are justified by His blood (Rom 5:9). 3. We were purchased by His own blood (Acts 20:28). 4. And we […]

“Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, ‘Peace, be still!’ And the wind ceased and there was a great calm” (Mk 4:39). “Be still, and know that I am God” (Ps 46:10). It’s hard to be still in a world like this. The wicked, we are told, “are like the […]
