Then Mordecai told them to reply to Esther, ‘Do not imagine that you in the king’s palace can escape any more than all the other Jews. For if you keep silent at this time, liberation and rescue will arise for the Jews from another place, and you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?’ Then Esther...

BUT GOD

“My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the rock and strength of my heart and my portion forever.” (Psalm 73:26 The Amplified Bible) There was something I needed to do, but I couldn’t do it by myself. I had no one to depend on; no, I had no one else – but God. There was a need to beat the devil, yet time after time, I could not get it done. No person I knew could help me win, no...

THE ONE-WORD ANSWER

“And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19 NASB) You have heard a couple of one-word answers when you pass by someone on the street or in the store. The most common one is “Hey.” Look, it is such a casual response that it does not even deserve an exclamation mark. It’s just “Hey.” Here are some examples: Question:...

“But encourage one another every day, as long as it is still called ‘today,’ so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.” (Hebrews 3:13 NASB) If you do not read any further this morning, please benefit from the words in the opening verse. However, if you choose to read on, you will benefit even more as it relates to the subject of encouragement. A young boy,...

ONE MAKES A DIFFERENCE!

One makes a difference! Let me give some examples before giving you, one called by God, a challenge for a minimum of this day, and at a maximum, a clearly challenge throughout your days, living as a child of God. Examples: (1) I went to the dental school for some work to be performed by a student who graduates at the end the first week in December. She only needed to perform one specific type of...

“A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions.    The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences.” (Psalm 22:3 NLT Version) My radio station was tuned in to the gospel channel as I drove home from some errands Friday morning. A song came on that had the beat that reminded me of the R&B songs that were popular in the 1970s. I thought I had somehow switched to...

“THE ONE”

“Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. After He had gone without food for forty days and forty nights, He became hungry. And the tempter came and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread." But Jesus replied, “It is written and forever remains written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every...

WHEN YOU DON’T FEEL LIKE YOURSELF

“They arrived on the other side of the sea in the country of the Gerasenes.  As Jesus got out of the boat, a madman from the cemetery came up to him.  He lived there among the tombs and graves.  No one could restrain him—he couldn’t be chained, couldn’t be tied down.  He had been tied up many times with chains and ropes, but he broke the chains, snapped the ropes.  No one was strong...

“By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you have love and unselfish concern for one another.” (John 13:35 The Amplified Bible) Priscilla, a 64-old woman with years of prior teaching at the secondary level, applied for a job at local charter school.  After taking an early retirement, she got tired of sitting around the house, and decided she would answer an advertisement...

“See now that I, I am He, and there is no god besides Me.” (Deuteronomy32:39a The Amplified Bible) When we think of the number “one,” we normally think of terms like “not much,” or “not enough.”  It’s Sunday morning, so let me say it, “Am I right about it?”  Yes, I am!  We think of definitions like “the minimum” or “a small amount.”  When we think about the...
