Desire to be Made Whole.

                                                                 Desire to Be Made Whole. We can Live with our Issue, or we can be Made Whole. One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.   When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you Want to be Made Whole”?   (John 5:5-6) Before the Fall, “We Were Whole”; physically and spiritually. Jesus Heals and Brings Wholeness to us, “If we want to be made whole”. Our Daily Nugget is Jesus saying to us Today that “If we want to, we can be made whole”.   The man in our Daily Nugget never asked Jesus to Make Him Whole, but the man’s Heart/Mind’s Desire was to be Made Whole.   God tells us in the Bible that “Whatever We Want” to ask Jesus for it.   Jesus gives us the Desires o...

Meditation.

                                                                             Meditation. Spending Time With Jesus. Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who “meditates” on His law day and night.   That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither, “whatever they do prospers”.   (Psalms 1:1-3) I Love you, I’m just too busy to spend time with you;  “But I Love You”. Our Daily Nugget is saying,   If You Want A Good and Prosperous Life, Spend Time Meditating on The Bible. A Wise Prayer; Lord, Bless me to “Delight in Your Law” and to to “Meditate on It Day and Night”. ...

Wisdom's Cry.

                                                                        Wisdom’s Cry. Wisdom Dwells with Prudence. I, Wisdom, dwell together with prudence; I possess knowledge and discretion.   To “Fear the Lord” is “To Hate Evil”; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech.   Counsel and sound judgment are mine; I have insight, I have power.   By me kings reign and rulers issue decrees that are just; by me princes govern, and nobles-“All Who Rule On Earth”.   I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me.   (Proverbs 8:1-5) God has promised that, “If we Look For Wisdom we will Find Wisdom”! In Our Daily Nugget we find the Answer and the Solution to “every one of our dilemmas”.   Prudence - Wisdom applied to practice.   It is the ability to exerci...

Grace Abused.

                                                                        Grace Abused. The Sin and Doom of Ungodly People. For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you.   They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a “license for immorality” and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.   (Jude 1:4) God’s Grace is Not a License for Immorality. Our Daily Nugget is a “Reminder” concerning the Destiny of Ungodly Living. Though you already know all this, I want to remind you that the Lord, at one time delivered His people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe.   And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their proper dwelling-these He has kept in darkness, bound wi...

Refuge.

                                                                                Refuge. In What or Whom do you seek Refuge? “Taste and See” that the Lord is “Good”, Blessed is the man who takes “Refuge” in Him.   (Psalms 34:8) The Lord is the Only Sure Refuge. The What or Whom we Seek Refuge in, is “our God or god”. To “Taste and See” is an Invitation for us to “Put God To The Test” Blessed - Experiencing divine favor, spiritual flourishing, and a deep, unshakeable inner joy that transcends external circumstances.   Rather than just “material wealth” or “good lick”, it describes being truly well-off and approved by God. Refuge - A place or state of ultimate safety, shelter, protection from danger, distress, or judgment.   It carries both   physical and spiritual meanings...

After Being Forgiven.

                                                                     After Being Forgiven. We Must Leave The Old Life of Sin. Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they?   Has no one condemned you?”   “No one, sir.”   Then neither do I condemn you, Jesus declared.   Go now and “Leave your life of sin”.   (John 8:10-11) After Forgiveness, The New Life is Revealed; “if Repentance has Occurred.”   Our Daily Nugget is Jesus letting us know that if we say, we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savor and “Go Back” to a Life of Sin; that we are like a “dog vomit”, it throws bad stuff out of his stomach and goes back to that vomit to consume it again.   It’s like a pig that has been washed of the mud and after it is cleaned, it goes straight to the mud again, wallowing in it. O...

Gentile?

                                                                                 Gentle? Being Gentle is not Being a Wimp.   But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, “Gentleness” and self-control.   Against such things there is no law.   (Gentleness 5:22-23) And Jesus went into the Temple of God (The Church), and (made a whip) and cast out all those who sold and bought in the temple (they were cheating the people), and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers and the seats of those who sold doves, and said unto them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called the House of Prayer,’ but ye have turned it into a Den of Thieves.”   (Matthew 21:12-13) Jesus made a whip and whipped them out of the Church. Gentle - “St...
