Text: Psalm 119:137-144The Bible encourages us that when we are in trouble and anguished, God’s commandments, meaning His Word comforts us! (v.143). Without comfort from the Word of God the challenges of life can overwhelm us and cause us to acquire diseases like diabetes hypertension and cancers. Jesus calls those who are troubled and are[…]

Text: Psalm 6:1-10When you are suffering, both, physically and spiritually, it is only God who can heal you and take away pain from your bones (v.2). Our God is Jehovah Rapha (The Lord who heals) (Exod. 15:26). He restores or heals the emotional and physical needs of the people. (Jer. 30:17; 3:22; Isa 30:26; 61:1;[…]

Text: Revelation 22:14-21In the beginning of the Bible, we read the sad story of Adam and Eve sinning against God and being removed from the Garden (Gen.3), prevented from eating of the tree of life, and there was nothing they could do to change that. However, God did make the only way to return to[…]

Text: James 1:19-27This is another passage about the importance of Scripture in the Christian’s transformed life. The writer, James (Jacob in the Greek language) was the physical brother of Jesus.

Text: 2 Timothy 3:14-17 The Bible is a book, obviously, but there is no other book like it. The Bible is God’s only book, and He influenced particular men to write it, using their personal character traits, customs, etc. But the Bible is all God’s work, and every word is His.

Text: Colossians 3:1-10.The theme for today’s passage is similar to the one of yesterday – union with Christ (vv.1, 3).Verse 1 states that we are raised with Christ, and verse 3 says our lives are hidden with Christ in God. Christians have a very intimate relationship of union with the Lord. Then in vv9-10 Paul[…]

Text: Philippians 2:1-18This short passage is very encouraging, but it has also caused a bit of confusion. We know Scripture teaches that salvation is entirely by God’s grace alone, accomplished by Jesus Christ alone, and received only by faith (Gen.15:6; Rom.3:22, 28; Eph.2:8-9). Today’s verses sound like Paul is teaching that a person must obey[…]
