Devotional "Thou shalt see greater things than these." John 1:50 This is spoken to a childlike believer, who was ready to accept Jesus as the Son of God, the King of Israel, upon one convincing piece of argument. Those who are willing to see shall see: it is because we shut our eyes [...]

Devotional Thy words were found, and I did eat them. Jeremiah 15:16 True Christians have a taste for God's Word. They read it; they study it; they feast on it. Empty professors may be content with a religion that pays scant attention to the Bible, but believers indwelt by the Holy Spirit can [...]
Devotional "The Lord mighty in battle." Psalm 24:8 Well, may our God be glorious in the eyes of His people, seeing that He has wrought such wonders for them, in them, and by them. For them, the Lord Jesus upon Calvary routed every foe, breaking all the weapons of the enemy in pieces [...]
