Help, Lord, for the godly man ceases! For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men. 2 They speak idly everyone with his neighbour; with flattering lips and a double heart they speak. 3 May the Lord cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaks proud things, 4 Who have said, “With our tongue we will prevail; our lips are our own; who is lord over us?” ….  Read More

Yes He does know you, because He sees you. When His people were suffering, God appeared to Moses in a miraculous way and told him the same ‘I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I KNOW their sorrows’ Exodus chapter 3 verse 7. He ….  Read More

After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them and baptized. 23 Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were baptized. 24 For John had not yet been thrown into prison. 25 Then there arose a dispute between some of John’s disciples and the ….  Read More

In the Lord I put my trust; how can you say to my soul, “Flee as a bird to your mountain”? 2 For look! The wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow on the string, that they may shoot secretly at the upright in heart. 3 If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do? 4 The Lord is in His holy temple, the Lord’s throne is in heaven; His eyes ….  Read More

It has been said, ‘FAITH is believing in something, when common sense tells you not to’. Common sense tells us that it is foolishness to believe that a man’s death on a Roman cross can save us from our sins. However, God reminds us, ‘My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ….  Read More

Why do You stand afar off, O Lord? Why do You hide in times of trouble? 2 The wicked in his pride persecutes the poor; let them be caught in the plots which they have devised. 3 For the wicked boasts of his heart’s desire; he blesses the greedy and renounces the Lord. 4 The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek God; God is in none of his thoughts. 5 His ….  Read More

So go the words of a Christian chorus: Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same; All may change, but Jesus never, Glory to His Name! These words may be considered old-fashioned, but they are true because they are based on the words of the Bible: ‘Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today and forever’ Hebrews chapter ….  Read More
