We use the words “I wonder” to mean, “I’d like to know.” But it should mean, “I’d like to worship.” The Lord begins His science class with the less complicated inanimate world (Job 38:4-38). I say this tongue-in-cheek. There’s nothing simple about gravity—the wonder of earth’s “foundations fastened” to nothing, God having “laid its cornerstone” on empty space (v […]
JESUS CHRIST the GREATER: “Who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves” (Lk 22:27). Only the embodiment of Wisdom could explain that the secret of true greatness was in taking the […]
“So it was, whenever the ark set out, that Moses said: ‘Rise up, O Lord! Let Your enemies be scattered, and let those who hate You flee before You.’ And when it rested, he said: ‘Return, O Lord, to the many thousands of Israel’” (Num 10:35-36). Regarding these beautiful verses, Adam Clarke writes: “Unless the […]
“His name shall be called Wonderful” (Isa 9:6). Arno C. Gabelein writes: “No mind can fathom, no heart can grasp, no pen describe, how wonderful the Savior is. The express image of God’s Person, how wonderful His condescension: the Creator of the angels made lower than the angels! Wonderful is He in His incarnation, resting […]
This has to be the ultimate interview, with God asking the questions. Is Job interested in running the universe? “Then the Lord answered Job” (Job 38:1). Here the word “Lord” is His name Jehovah, the covenant-keeping God. Although the wait may sometimes seem long, the Lord has obligated Himself to answering His people. “Thus says the Lord who made […]

The KEEN-EYED CHRIST: “So He called His disciples to Himself and said to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury; for they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all that […]
“I have waited for your salvation, O Lord!” (Gen 49:18). The great value of this verse is seeing it in context. It is a plea in the midst of Jacob’s prophecy regarding the future of his sons. They are not bright prospects, but in the middle he prays this prayer. We know how the story […]
“He who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death” (Jas 5:20). When workmen began a year-long $500,000 renovation in 1994 on the Washington monument in DC, they didn’t expect to find graffiti. But that’s exactly what they found. Graffiti from the 1800s discovered when workers removed some […]
A whirlwind is energy in motion. What may seem chaotic could, in fact, be God on the move for us. In a whirlwind of trouble, Job lost his family, wealth, reputation, health, friendships, and peace of mind. All he seems to have left are questions—plenty of them! He’s hoping (and maybe we are, too) that […]
