Verses I Need to Hear
There are times when the Lord will use prophetic words given from other people. When people write them down for me, I read them and many times keep them or make note of them in some way. There are other times when people will have the Lord give them a Scripture for me. They will write down the reference for…

Hunger
7 Hear my voice when I call, LORD; be merciful to me and answer me. 8 My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, LORD, I will seek. (Psalm 27:7,8, TNIV) It is so challenging to seek the face of God in the midst of incredibly hectic schedules. This week may be a part-time job and then a…

Breakthrough
We have a need for miracles. It seems we ALWAYS have a need for miracles! Personally, the miracles I need are so often the kind where I got myself in a mess and now I can’t get out. I’m in good company. Israel did it all the time. These past few weeks have been amazing. God has challenged me in…

Training…
When I finally finish my study on Psalm 119, I may be brave enough to go back over all those notes and see what overlaps. Over the months I am sure I have used cross references on more than one occasion. One passage I’m pretty sure I’ve cross-referenced before is 2 Tim. 3:15-17. But I’m not going to go searching…

A Heart to Know God
The text for preaching this week came from Jer. 31:31-34. I focused on v. 33. But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be…

The Company of the Committed
“May those who fear you turn to me, those who understand your statutes.” (Ps. 119:79) I have been working my way through Psalm 119 over the past few weeks and these verses challenge me. My hunger for the Word has always been strong. It ebbs and flows, but over the years I have always had an abiding hunger for the…

Hunger I have been on a wonderful journey through Psalm 119. The entire Psalm is about the Word of God. Over and over the psalmist “gushes” with delight at the Law. This journey has opened up my hunger even more for the Word. God’s word to me… to the Church… is so life-giving. It is full of hope. As my…
