GIVING BIRTH TO YOUR DELIVERANCE

ByDr. Mark August 19, 2025 0 Comments
“The Lord hears His people when they call to Him for help. He rescues them from all their troubles” (Psalm 34 17 NLT) Today’s meditation, like yesterday’s, is based on inspiration from the same one-person performance that I attended at a local church last Friday night. The pre-birthday, worshipping celebration where there was a gathering of family and friends of a true servant of God,...

GIVE GOD REASONS TO BLESS YOU!

ByDr. Mark August 14, 2025 0 Comments
“Praise the Lord! Blessed is a person who fears the Lord,Who greatly delights in His commandments.” (Psalm 112:1 NASB) Sunday, as I preached from 2 Samuel 22, one of the three major points I made, making it personal for each one of us receiving the specific message sent by the Lord was, “The Lord will bless me, for I will give Him reason to do so!”  As a supplement for those...

COMING OUT OF THE FOREST OF LIFE!

“In the past you were full of darkness, but now you are full of light in the Lord. So live like children who belong to the light.” (Ephesians 5:8 Easy-to Read Bible) I just had an anniversary! What type of anniversary? The best kind of anniversary! You see, on August 11, 1960 I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior. Spiritually, on that very day I had passed from darkness into the...

“IT’S GOOD FOR ME!”

“Before I was afflicted, I went astray, but now I keep Your word. You are good and You do good; Teach me Your statutes. The arrogant have forged a lie against me; with all my heart I will comply with Your precepts. Their heart is insensitive, like fat, but I delight in Your Law. It is good for me that I was afflicted, so that I may learn Your statutes. The Law of Your mouth is...

IT’S TIME TO TAKE A KNEE…AGAIN!

“The vice-regents and governors conspired together and then went to the king and said, “King Darius, live forever! We’ve convened your vice-regents, governors, and all your leading officials, and have agreed that the king should issue the following decree: For the next thirty days no one is to pray to any god or mortal except you, O king. Anyone who disobeys will be thrown into the...

I WANT WHAT HE HAS #3

ByDr. Mark May 28, 2025 0 Comments
“Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly, leave the rest to God.” (Author Unknown) In the room I refer to as my home office, there are several pictures and wall hangings. There are four framed pictures all with a bible verse written on an olive-green background. They are not just for décor, not just to coordinate with the colors of other articles is the room, but they serve...

I WANT WHAT HE HAS #2!

“O loving and kind God, have mercy. Have pity upon me and take away the awful stain of my transgressions. Oh, wash me, cleanse me from this guilt. Let me be pure again. For I admit my shameful deed—it haunts me day and night. It is against you and you alone I sinned and did this terrible thing. You saw it all, and your sentence against me is just. But I was born a sinner, yes, from the...

GETTING TO THE DESTINATION NAMED “BETTER”

ByDr. Mark April 15, 2025 0 Comments
Frustrated by the fact that in spite of going to church regularly, in spite of hearing countless sermons, in spite of attending weekly bible study classes, an individual began to wonder why things were not changing for the better in his life. First, I responded, sometimes the destination named “Better” is not arrived at quickly by divine design. I elaborated to utter the familiar phrase,...

THERE IS A TIME TO COMMEND

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1 NIV) Surely you have been in a situation where someone shared an accurate thought from a scripture. It might have been in a class, a ministry meeting, or a conversation with another. If you have not been in such a situation, you will. Let me share a few thoughts that will help you in such...

RESPONDING TO PEOPLE WHO COULD NOT FIND YOU ON SUNDAY MORNING

ByDr. Mark March 2, 2025 0 Comments
It is not even Monday, but since you spent a “long time” reading yesterday’s meditation, I will be short today. I simply want to provide you with words to use when responding to the question, “Where were you today?” My advice is to just use the words of Jesus, legitimately so, expressed in the verses below when asked that question. Now, go be blessed in the house of the Lord today! He...
