Ep 566Galatians 1 A very important introduction to Galatians.
This is an incredibly important introduction to Galatians 1.One of the biggest challenges to the early church and the church in Galatia was whether they needed to follow the works of the Old Testament law in order to become Christian.One of our greatest doctrinal problems is that we think works of the law=good works.This has created so much problems in our theology and led to a complacent church. ★ Support this podcast ★

Ep 5632 Kings 23 The beauty of Josiah’s reforms, yet judgment still comes.
It is never too late to repent and return to honoring our Lord. Sometimes however it is too late to change the judgement that comes upon the earth. That was true in Josiah’s day and will be true one day when the tribulation comes upon the earth. Yet, no matter the result God is worthy of our reforms and worthy of our worship. Although judgement may not be spared upon the earth those who believe in Jesus will be rewarded. ★ Support this podcast ★

The weeds of sin come and overgrow our life choking out our purpose and our fruitfulness. This happens when we lose the influence of God’s Word in our lives.Repent, turn away from sin, turn toward God, return again to reading God’s Word with reverence. His grace is there to forgive and empower you to a victorious life. ★ Support this podcast ★
Ep 5612 Kings 21 What to do when children turn from the faith.
It is very sad to see a child turn from the faith. We see that in this chapter. Pray from them. Believe all things are possible. Keep serving God yourself. There are a plethora of examples of people of the Bible having children not continue in the faith. Don’t let that thwart you from serving Jesus faithfully till the end. ★ Support this podcast ★
Ep 560Psalm 79 Keeping your faith in Jesus as a sure foundation, even amidst the storm.
Psalm 79 Keeping your faith in Jesus as a sure foundation, even amidst the storm.Jerusalem and Judah had been demolished and defeated. This was extremely difficult for the people of God. 2 Kings 17 beginning in verse 7 does a good job of giving an example of why this happened, even though for Judah it happened later.What is beautiful is despite the hardship he remains in faith and gives thanks to the name of God forever (verse 13). ★ Support this podcast ★
Ep 5592 Kings 20 Worship God and His Word. Learn from but do not worship man-made summaries.
In this chapter and the last God responds to prayer. Do you believe God has determined everything already? The Bible says God does not change his mind? What does that mean? There are actually many cases in the Bible where God does change his mind. Also, does God bless us based upon our actions? Does he bless people and nations who seek Him and seek to honor Him?If you have had questions about things like this I hope you enjoy this chapter and teaching. ★ Support this podcast ★
Ep 5582 Kings 19 The blessing of God upon people of faith.
This is what it was supposed to be. Israel was to remain true to God and His Word so that it would go well with them. In this chapter God blesses Judah and gives them victory. Oh that they would have always followed Him in this way.May we be the people of God and faithful to Him so it may go well with us. ★ Support this podcast ★

Ep 5542 Kings 15 Wickedness leads to losing your country.
In 2 Kings 15 we see that the wickedness of Israel finally catches up to them and they begin to be deported to Assyria.God has been patient. It has been a long history of wickedness. The northern kingdom of Israel reminds me of the days of Noah. It is filled with godlessness, false worship, conspiracy, murder and more. As a result they lose their country.All countries should take notice. ★ Support this podcast ★

Ep 5512 Kings 13 God may ask you to move beyond your personality.
God at times will ask us to do things that stretch us and are beyond the normal operation of our personality. When working as a team or a family there are multiple personalities. If we force God to operate within ours we may miss what God is going. We need to be open to how God wants to move. ★ Support this podcast ★

Ep 549Psalm 78 The grandest habit in all of life is remembering God daily.
This Psalm is so powerful in its implication. Oozing out of the soul the Psalmist is that the people of God and the generation to come would remember all that God has done.Sin and complacency comes down to poor daily habits which then allow the lusts of the world to overtake ones thoughts and purpose. The solution is to spend time with God and his Spiritual Word daily. ★ Support this podcast ★

1 Kings 20 Waiting on God’s plan even when it seems dark.Waiting in the Bible is closely related to hope and anticipation. When one waits for something they still believe it is going to happen that is why they are waiting. If they lost hope or expectation they would no longer be waiting. ★ Support this podcast ★

Ep 5311 Kings 18 How long will you limp between two opinions?
This was a question Elijah asked the people in an incredible contest he had with the false prophets of Baal.I think one of the challenges many Christian’s face is that of limping between two opinions. They do believe. They may even believe enough to be saved. But one of the problems is that they still limp between two opinions. They have one foot in Jesus and one foot in the world. One foot in I want to believe in Jesus but one foot in I want my life my way. One foot in heaven but one foot in just in case this is not real I want to live life the way I desire.When one believes more wholeheartedly that Jesus is Master, King, Savior and Lord one’s life easily reflect this. It is then attending Bible study will not be a question. Taking time to serve Jesus will be a desire. Giving will be a priority. Reading the Bible will be a longing. Wanting other people to know the Gospel will be a conviction.If you are so to speak limping between two opinions I would encourage you to ready my book Altar’d which can be found at www.reveringtheword.com. It is a book that has sound evidence as to why the Bible can be trusted and it also reveals evidence confirming why Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. ★ Support this podcast ★
Ep 5301 Kings 17 Overcoming doubt formed by the loss of someone you love.
The widow in this story lost her husband and now was struggling through a famine in providing sustenance for her and her son. She was destitute and in despair. Despite God providing for her she still couldn’t get herself to overcome her sadness. In my discernment she may have been still blaming God for the loss of her husband. She was not willing to believe. In this story God does a second miracle for her in raising her son back to life. She now becomes a believer. Praise God for all the miracles in this chapter. Does God have to do a miracle for each of us personally for us to believe? Has not he already done so all throughout history? Is it possible that the change that is needed is that of seeking God to find Him versus seeking God only to deny Him? ★ Support this podcast ★
