Dance before the Lord…

And David and all the house of Israel were celebrating before the Lord, with songs and lyres and harps and tambourines and castanets and cymbals. And when they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled. And the anger of the Lord was kindled againstContinue reading “Dance before the Lord…”

Hope!

Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back, but he was defeated, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown downContinue reading “Hope!”

Leaven…

Do you not know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough? Clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new batch, as you really are unleavened.

Rivers of living water…

Who ever is thirsty come to me and out if his heart will flow streams of living water Jesus said in the 7th chapter of John. Living water. This is the Spirit, John tells us, who has not yet come because Jesus has not yet been glorified. Living water. This is different than dead stagnateContinue reading “Rivers of living water…”

do not be afraid…

All of us have something we are afraid of. And these things change from time to time. Like when we are young many of us are afraid of the dark. Some of us are afraid of spiders, roaches, bugs, lizards, snakes… We are afraid of abandonment. We are afraid of losing those we love. We are afraid of notContinue reading “do not be afraid…”
