Today’s Meditation Click to read: 2 Timothy 2:19 Have you ever really wondered what it would be like to be God? What would it be like to have to keep track of the thoughts and intents of not just one person’s heart, but the hearts of several billion people?

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Psalm 34:15 Have you ever gotten stuck on hold on the phone? You really needed to speak with the person or company on the other end, but it seemed like the object they had in mind was to conduct a scientific study to see how long you would wait before finally giving up.

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Haggai 2:19 Obedience brings blessing. The people of Israel had seen their economy falter under the judgment of the Lord.

Here, the Lord lets them know that from this day on He would bless them. Blessing here meant something very practical: food to … Read entire article »

Today’s Meditation Click to read: Psalm 18:40-42 If there were a poisonous snake that had been crawling around your yard for months and you had been unable to catch it, what would you do with it once you caught it?

Today’s Meditation Click to read: 2 Corinthians 2:11 The last lie in this series that we want to expose is one which is crucial to long term growth in the Christian’s life.

Today’s Meditation Click to read: 2 Corinthians 2:11 A sixth lie that we want to expose is this: “Fear is just a part of life. Get used to it.” The devil’s intent here is to teach the young Christian that they cannot overcome certain kinds of attacks. Fear is one of the devil’s most basic tools.

Today’s Meditation Click to read: 2 Corinthians 2:11 As we move into the weekend, it might be helpful to expose another lie that the enemy uses on people so often. Have you heard this? “It doesn’t matter what you eat and drink or how you take care of your body.

Today’s Meditation Click to read: 2 Corinthians 2:11 Another lie that we want to expose has to do with a subtle attack on God’s view of family. The devil often comes to people with this lie or its variation: “If you follow God wholeheartedly, you will end up having to remain single the rest of your life.” Or the variation for married people is, “If you follow God wholeheartedly, God will take your family from you through … Read entire article »

Today’s Meditation Click to read: 2 Corinthians 2:11 The next lie we want to expose may seem a bit odd to bring up, but it is necessary to review: “Suicide isn’t a sin.” Probably most of the people who read this list would look at that statement and say, “Duh, how stupid.
