They are called rejected silver, for the Lord has rejected them. These rejected ones truly are in Hell - the 'place' for those who have completely lost any sense of shame and who have committed themselves to rebellion against Father God. He will not force Himself upon them; yet, He will not be mocked and … Continue reading Rejected – Jeremiah 6:30

Living Shortsighted – Jeremiah 5:30-31
“An appalling and horrible thing Has happened in the land: The prophets prophesy falsely, And the priests rule on their own authority; And My people love it so! But what will you do at the end of it?” We simply tend to be shortsighted don’t we? Living day to day according to our own desires. … Continue reading Living Shortsighted – Jeremiah 5:30-31
False Counsel – Job 5:8
However, if I were you, I would appeal to God and would present my case to him. This is exactly what Job has always done and even in these dire circumstances continues to do.

Can one truly sacrifice something that has cost him nothing? I … Continue reading Personal Offerings – 2 Samuel 24:24
Deliverance and Delight – 2 Samuel 22:20
He brought me out to a spacious place; He rescued me because He delighted in me. This idea of Father God delighting in me is a real stretch for me. I don't know why other than I simply must not fully see myself as He sees me. I definitely delight in my children often; however, … Continue reading Deliverance and Delight – 2 Samuel 22:20
Losers – Luke 9:25 (CSB)
For what does it benefit someone if he gains the whole world, and yet loses or forfeits himself? Don't be deceived, the value of who we are, as God has created us to be, is worth far more than any created thing we enjoy on this earth. Our very being surpasses infinitely in value any … Continue reading Losers – Luke 9:25 (CSB)
