Today, I’m sharing a video / article about why Jesus is called the Lamb of God. I wanted to write my own devotional about this topic, but Annette Reeder did such an amazing job of explaining this significant matter, that I felt I couldn’t have done a better job. Side note: The video is below, but I’ll also link to her article, in case you’d rather READ it instead of listen.

How Scripture Writing Helped Me Build a Closer Relationship to God
Today’s key verse is James 4:8, King James Version “Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you.” – James 4:8 KJV Are you longing, searching, or even just hoping for a closer relationship with the Lord? In the verse above, we are told that when we draw nigh (or get closer) to God, He will draw nigh to us. We get closer to someone by spending more time with them, talking to them, and listening to them. Of course, Bible reading, Bible study, and prayer are wonderful and essential ways to grow our relationship with God. A few years ago, I came across something that has really…

Doubt Sinks Our Faith
Today’s Bible Study references are from Matthew 14:24 to 32. The key verse is Matthew 14:31. King James Version. When I think of doubting, I often remember the amusing story of a man who wheeled a barrow across a tight rope. The peering crowd beneath cheered the man onward! As he reached the other side, you could hear the shouts, “Hurray! Amazing! Wow!” Questioning the crowd, he asked, “Do you believe that I can also tote a man across to the other side in this wheelbarrow?” “YES! Yes, you can do it!” With such encouragement, he quizzically implored, “Okay, who will be my first volunteer?” The response? Dead silence. You…

Take a Closer Look at That Bread!
Today’s Bible passage is Mark 6:32 – 52. Key verses are Mark 6:52, Ezekiel 36:26, James 1:17. (In King James Version.) Have you ever accidently gone through a red light or stop sign? It was right in front of you, but somehow you absent-mindedly bypassed it without taking notice. Maybe this hasn’t happened to you, but I admit that I’ve done it before. Thank GOD for His protective measures at that time. I imagine that I’m a real challenge for Him at times. Haha! Stop lights and stop signs are critical warning signs. Yet, it’s so easy for us to miss important factors in life. Today, I’m sharing an amazing event…

Faith Still Moves Mountains
References today are from Matthew 21:18 to 22 KJV One morning, Jesus was hungry. Since he had no earthly home during his ministry years, he gazed around looking for breakfast. There nearby, Jesus saw a fig tree. When he wandered over to the tree, anticipating fruit, he observed that it was only sporting leaves. There was not a single fruit found growing on it. What a disappointment in a fruit tree! QUESTIONS to consider: Are we like this fruit tree? Are we growing spiritual fruit in our lives? Are we sharing the gospel? Jesus then said to the tree, “Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever.” And immediately the…
