"I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over the ninety and nine just persons which need no repentance." Luke 15:7
Priority is preference! What I mean is, priority is what is most important to us. When we view things from this viewpoint then we can understand why God rejoices over the one, more than the ninety and nine. God is not willing that any should perish, "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but...

"That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." Colossians 2:2,3
Are you a detective type? Do you like to search out things and find the nuggets of truth within a situation? Do you find yourself investigating everything? There has been an explosion of television shows that...

"That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. Hebrews 6:12
Typically when we hear the word slothful we think it's referring to someone being physically lazy and not wanting to work. The reason we tend to think this is because this word is almost always used when describing a physical activity and rarely a spiritual one. Can I say that many people today are slothful? Most are not physically slothful, as slothful is described, but many are...

"As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. And when ye see this your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like a herb:" Isaiah 66:13, 14a
How many know that one of the best times in life is when you're mother is with you? A mother brings joy and comfort, she consoles us when we hurt and a mother is a deep well of wisdom that counsels us when we are confused. How invaluable is our mother? As a mother comforts her children, Jesus will comfort us. 2Corinthians 1:4 reads, "Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in...

"Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." 1Peter 1:5
For such a time as this! By the power of God many people and things have been placed in reserve for the appointed time. God is able and His wisdom in formulating the strategy for the end times is evident in this. Of course, God has many resourses and many people who serve, but he uses this wisely. No need to pour out, reveal, or place on active duty every resourse exposing all and potentially expending all before it...

"For the Lord God will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know I shall not be ashamed." Isaiah 50:7
The scrolling banner reads, "I HAVE SET MY FACE LIKE A FLINT!" Can you say this? There will be times in your life that you will have to take a stand and stand therefore having put on the whole armor of God. Unfortunately, there are some powers out there that would love to see you fail, this is a fact, and the old phrases "buck up" or...

"For God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." John 3:17
Religious condemnation. It seems like those two words shouldn't be found in the same sentence, especially when Romans 8:1,2 tells us, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." however, it would also seem that to sentence or...

"Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13
Many people have heard about what God has done for them. In John 3:16 it reads," For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whomsoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Many have heard this, but have not taken time to meditate on what this means. It means love. God's great love has been sent to us and it has been poured out for us. It is the greatest love that could ever be given and God has set this love as a banner over our life. How great is our God? That He would give to us His only begotten son and that His son...
