BRINGING THE DEAD TO LIFE…WITH JESUS!

ByDr. Mark August 20, 2025 1 Comment
“Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus, but oddly, when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed on where he was for two more days. After the two days, he said to his disciples, “Let’s go back to Judea.” They said, “Rabbi, you can’t do that. The Jews are out to kill you, and you’re going back?” Jesus replied, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? Anyone who walks in...

THE FIRES OF LIFE

“Jesus was arrested and led away to the house of the high priest, while Peter followed at a distance. Some people built a fire in the middle of the courtyard and were sitting around it. Peter sat there with them, and a servant girl saw him. Then after she had looked at him carefully, she said, “This man was with Jesus!” Peter said, “Woman, I don't even know that man!” A little later...

“O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good…” (Psalm 107.1a King James Version) Trust me! You will come to “The Corner of Come What May” this week. It may intersect with the good experiences or the recognition of the good things that the Lord has showered on you in past days; all the blessing that brought you delight. On the other end of the continuum, “The Corner Of Come What...

 “If it had not been the Lord who was on our side…” (Psalm 124:1a KJV) This past Saturday I joined our women’s group, Collage, as they visited the home of our oldest member, a woman who was born in 1920 and is the oldest living alumni of her famous high school, Crispus Attucks. The visit started out with prayer and then each member of the women’s ministry shared an assigned verse...

REAL LIFE

“And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.” (Genesis 5:23-24 KJV) I was talking with a friend who is battling a physical condition.  I admire him the way He is fighting his battle because of the fact that it has not altered his faith in God or changed his hope for the future. He never sounds down and his...

THE TELL OF TWO CITIZENS

“Blessed is the person who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers!  But his delight is in the Law of the Lord, and on His Law he meditates day and night.  He will be like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does, he prospers.  The...

THE ANSWER TO YESTERDAY’S QUESTION

“Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate it and tend it.  The Lord God commanded the man, saying, “From any tree of the garden you may freely eat; but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for on the day that you eat from it you will certainly die.” (Genesis 2:15-17) This is the answer I promised you yesterday.  It is...

THE SIMPLE LIFE

ByDr. Mark September 24, 2023 0 Comments
(This Sunday morning meditation is an excerpt from, Specific Messages for Specific Times, by yours truly, copyrighted in 2006.  It is still relevant today.) Life seems complicated, confusing, and complex, and full of treacherous twist, trying times, and testing turns.  What happened to the simple life?  There is not enough time, too much to do, too much to deal with, and too many...

THE TRUE LIFE

“For God so loved and dearly prized the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 Amplified Bible) I was in a store looking for a orange book for décor purposes, not really for digging into biblical principles.  However, after going through the fictional section, I came to the...

EVEN WHEN LIFE HAS YOU IMPRISONED…

“But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was suddenly gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace before the authorities, and when they had brought them to the chief magistrates, they said, “These men, Jews as they are, are causing our city trouble, and they are proclaiming customs that are not lawful for us to accept or to practice, since we are...
