“Come, let us worship and bow down,Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.For He is our God,And we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand.Today, if you would hear His voice,Do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah,As in the day of Massah in the wilderness,‘When your fathers tested … Continue reading Those Who Test God
Bible Studies
For the past year the Lord has been having me write chronological studies of books of the New Testament. And I have been keeping those in collections on my computer by books of the Bible. My husband has encouraged me to create a new category and subcategories for those who might want to read these particular studies by book. Each one is from my personal devotions and they may not cover every verse or every chapter, and they might be in reverse order by chapter since that is the order in which they were posted, i.e. the last will appear first. This is a work in progress, so this may take me a while to recategorize and retag each post. I hope and pray this is beneficial to you.

Faith in Christ is Change
“As you know, it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you, and even though my illness was a trial to you, you did not treat me with contempt or scorn.

Don’t Return to The Past
“However at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those which by nature are no gods. But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you turn back again to the weak and worthless elemental things, to which you … Continue reading Don’t Return to The Past
Heirs According to The Promise
“Even so Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness. Therefore, be sure that it is those who are of faith who are sons of Abraham.

Have You Clothed Yourselves With Christ?
“But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed. Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under … Continue reading Have You Clothed Yourselves With Christ?
And They Were Frightened
“So Jesus, perceiving that they were intending to come and take Him by force to make Him king, withdrew again to the mountain by Himself alone. “Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea, and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea to Capernaum. It had already become … Continue reading And They Were Frightened
Who Will Listen To It?
Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this said, “This is a difficult statement; who can listen to it?” But Jesus, conscious that His disciples grumbled at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?” As a result of this many of His disciples withdrew and were not walking with Him anymore. … Continue reading Who Will Listen To It?
