LISTEN TO THE VOICE!

“Some time later many of the people, both men and women, began to complain against the other Jews. Some said, “We have large families, we need grain to keep us alive.” Others said, “We have had to mortgage our fields and vineyards and houses to get enough grain to keep us from starving.” Still others said, “We had to borrow money to pay the royal tax on our fields and vineyards. We...

“You are so filled with ideas that nothing more will fit. Empty your cup and come back to me so I can fill it with wisdom” (Paraphrase of an oriental saying) I was watching the movie 2012 one morning. There was one scene in the movie where a man living in the Eastern part of the world came to one of his respected masters. He asked the master about the possibility of the world coming to an...

“We are pressed on every side by troubles, but not crushed and broken. We are perplexed because we don’t know why things happen as they do, but we don’t give up and quit. We are hunted down, but God never abandons us. We get knocked down, but we get up again and keep going.” (2 Corinthians 4:8-9 The Living Bible) This short meditation is about “The Apostle Paul and Y’all. “The...

THE EYES

“The eyes of the Lord are in every place, Watching the evil and the good.” (Proverbs 15:3 NASB) Dr. King, my lovely wife, is not an eye doctor, but an educator. But her eyes might tend to disagree with what I know and grant her the highest honorary degree in Eye Functionality. Let me tell you why. A month ago, Dr. King was in Chicago, visiting one of our sons and his family. While she was...

REINFORCING THE POINT ABOUT “ANYHOW!”

“We are all in agreement—we administrators, officials, high officers, advisers, and governors—that the king should make a law that will be strictly enforced. Give orders that for the next thirty days any person who prays to anyone, divine or human—except to you, Your Majesty—will be thrown into the den of lions.  And now, Your Majesty, issue and sign this law so it cannot be...

“So by my woes to be, nearer, my God, to Thee; nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee. Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee; nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee.” (Excerpt from hymn written by Sarah Flower Adams in 1841) This is your Sunday Share meditation. Pastor M.R. King preached from Luke 10:38-42, using as a subject, “Are You in Position?” When you check out the...

RAMBLING THOUGHTS ON A TUESDAY MORNING!

ByDr. Mark March 17, 2026 3 Comments
I sat in a quiet place, only for a moment, and these are the thoughts that rambled through my mind. A person can be young in years, but grey in wisdom if he/she studies the scriptures. It is not necessary to have earthly wealth to be considered well-off, but you do need Jesus to benefit from the riches of heaven! Happiness is hidden at times underneath layers of life’s happenings. On the other...

STAY THE COURSE! GO THE DISTANCE!

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.” (Hebrews 11:1) Spring is just around the corner.  With temperature rising, it seems like every day there is an increasing number of runners taking to the streets; training for...

WAKE UP!

Yes, if you by chance read this on your phone out of habit, and you have to fight to do it, “Wake Up!”  You need to get to the house of the Lord this morning. If you by chance missed Sunday School, you can make it to morning service on time. You just need to “Wake Up!” Furthermore, If you have been insensitive in any way to the fact that you have not only been saved from eternal...

HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD!

“He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?’ I said, ‘Master God, only you know that.’He said to me, ‘Prophesy over these bones: Dry bones, listen to the Message of God!’” (Ezekiel 37:3-4) Tomorrow, on the Lord’s Day, I’m sure that you will be in the assembly of the saints, preferably in-person, but if not possible, virtually. You will hear the Word of the Lord. Yes,...
