To Take the Hand of God

  • The Chosen and Gen Z

    Last night on The Chosen Livestream for Season 3 on YouTube, we saw a remarkable documentary. 10 young men and women from different parts of the country were brought together to stream a show. They didn’t know what show. They were asked to watch and honestly share their thoughts, hold nothing back. Their own personal…

  • Life

    Can you imagine when God made parrots? The feathers in all their beautiful colors; how about lions and seeing their eyes looking right at Him? Tiny sparrows He reminds us He knows when each one falls. Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals and all the birds in…

  • The Shepherd of Our Path

    Revelation 22 the final chapter of the Bible with the tree of life and living water bringing us to Eden restored. Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of…

  • Fallen

    Revelation 18 begins with a mighty angel shouting that Babylon the Great is fallen and telling us to come out of her lest we share in her sins. The commentary says Babylon represents evil world power – the enemy of God; Revelation 14 also spoke of the fallen Babylon which made all the nations drunk…

  • What Does the Lord Require?

    Reading Revelation 14 this morning, I quickly felt all my inadequacies. We have only watched the Open Table Conference discussions up to Chapter 13. Chapter 14 is hard and it doesn’t take long to realize why the winepress of the wrath of God is needed. I took that to Him in prayer and He told…

  • Trust In The Lord

    The most disturbing thing about reading Revelation 13 is the widespread deception. Satan is clever and people are impressed by power. We are warned of 2 beasts; one from the sea and one from the earth and both under the power of Satan who tries to counterfeit God. The saddest thing is that he succeeds…

  • God Doesn’t Want Slaves

    Reading this morning in Revelation 12 and remembering the discussions of that Chapter with Open Table Conference, I was struck with the imagery John described. v. 1 A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. She…

  • If Correction is Needed Let It Be From God

    Do you ever feel overwhelmed? I see faults in myself and others and wonder how will it ever be made good for all of us. Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given…

  • To Be Blessed By God

    I’ve been reading Revelation. Powerful stuff. It’s easy to think it’s way in the future or just a futuristic story not to be taken seriously. What do we take for granted? What do we need that we depend upon to always be there? People who have lived through disasters quickly understand that everything can be…

  • Death Throes of Sin

    In reading about the trumpet blasts in Revelation 9 and the 2 woes that accompany the 5th and 6th trumpet blasts, I can’t help but think how unnecessary all of this is; if only people had repented and turned to God. One third of humanity killed. And the four angels who had been kept ready…
