WHERE DO I GO FOR GUIDANCE!

ByDr. Mark September 20, 2025 2 Comments
The Lord says, ‘I will teach you the way you should go; I will instruct you and advise you.’” (Psalm 32:8 Good News Translation) This week I got a call from a person who lives in another part of the country. He knew I pastored a church and started our conversation by sharing that he had some things on his mind and he wanted to know where to go for wisdom. Instead of acting like I was the...

FAVORITE PLACE TO VISIT

“And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.” (I John 5:14 ESV) If it had not been for work related travel, the places that I have I visited would have been restricted, primarily, to places in Indiana, Kentucky, Chicago, and Ohio. Work related travel allowed me to visit most major cities and even perform an important...

“Because the Lord is my Shepherd, I have everything I need! He lets me rest in the meadow grass and leads me beside the quiet streams. He gives me new strength. He helps me do what honors him the most. Even when walking through the dark valley of death I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me, guarding, guiding all the way. You provide delicious food for me in the presence of my...

“Now is the time to relocate from burdens to “better,” from hopeless to hope, from our entrapments to the freedom that is ahead, from where we reside in our mindset now, to a place where relief, hope, joy, and victory resonate loudly.” (Mark L. King Quote) Since we did not have a Monday Short meditation yesterday, I will try to be brief today.  I may not say it all, but when all is...

COMING OUT OF YOUR CAVE

“So he got up and ate and drank, and the food gave him enough strength to travel forty days and forty nights to Mount Sinai, the mountain of God.  There he came to a cave, where he spent the night.  But the Lord said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” (I Kings 19:8-9 NLT) As you can tell from our opening verses, which is about Elijah, shortly after his victory of the prophets of...

THE PRIVATE PLACE

“God uses small things to make a big impact.” (Quote by Rebecca Sheridan) Now you who know me probably read the opening quote and thought I was going to reiterate my belief, based on Biblical proof, that the Lord can take small means and bring about great results through faith.  Well, that is a true statement, but I am not going to talk about example for the Scriptures to defend that...

“GO TO PREPARE A PLACE”

“Don’t let your hearts be troubled.  Trust in God, and trust also in me.  There is more than enough room in my Father’s home.  If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?” (John 14:1-2) Yesterday, I caught the end of the movie “Harriet,” an account of the work of Harriet Tubman.  One of the post-scripts said that this great...

“If you listen obediently to the Voice of God, your God, and heartily obey all his commandments that I command you today, God, your God, will place you on high, high above all the nations of the world.  All these blessings will come down on you and spread out beyond you because you have responded to the Voice of God, your God: God’s blessing inside the city, God’s blessing in the country;...

DO YOU SEE THE BIRD IN THE TREE?

“But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be.” (I Corinthians 12:18 NIV) Fastened securely in her seatbelt, a four-year old toddler is continuously talking on the long ride home from church. The parent is paying attention to the road, and somewhat to the talkative toddler, acknowledging every statement that the child makes with an...
