                                                                             Ashamed. Are you Ashamed of the Gospel? For unto us “A Child is Born”, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder.   And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.   (Isaiah 9:6) For I am “Not Ashamed” of the Gospel, because it is the Power of God that brings Salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.   (Romans 1:16) Do you say, “Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays”? Christians Celebrate Jesus’ Birth, which brought Salvation to a Lost World. The World Celebrate it as a Holiday, and a Time of Gift Giving and Receiving. This scripture, spoken by the Apostle Paul, expresses his confidence in the Gospel...

                                                                     Desires of the Heart. God Gives us “The Desires of Our Heart”. When that day comes, (when you get the Desires of your Heart), you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, “But The Lord Will Not Answer You In That Day”.   But the people refused to listen to Samuel.   “No”! They said.   We want a king over us, to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles.   (1 Samuel 8:19-20).   (Just Like Everybody Else?  “No”,  We are a Peculiar people!) You asked for it, you’ve got it, “A Horrible King” What we Think are, “The Desires of Our Heart”; I Think, I Want a King. Our Daily Nugget is a perfect example of how we bring destruction on ourselves when we “want to be like the world” and “we want to b...

                                                                             Hold Tight! To “Let Go” is “To Be Lost”. Brothers and sisters, make sure that none of you has a “sinful heart”.   Do not let an “Unbelieving Heart” turn you away from the living God.   But “build one another up every day”. Do it as long as there is still time.   “THEN” none of you will become stubborn.   You won’t be fooled by sin’s tricks.   We belong to Christ “If We ‘Hold Tightly’ to the Faith we Had At First”.   “But We Must Hold Tightly Until The End”.   (Hebrews 3:12-14) Jesus said, “O How I Wish You Were Hot or Cold”, But, Since you are neither, “I will spew you out of my mouth”. Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that “A Sinful Heart” is an “Unbelieving Heart”; and that an Unb...

                                                              The Destiny of “Little Faith”. The Destiny of Little Faith is, an “Anxious Spirit”. O you of “Little Faith”?   Therefore “Do Not Be Anxious”, saying, “What shall we eat, or What shall we drink, or What shall we wear”?   For the Gentiles (Unbelievers) “Seek After” all these things, and your Heavenly Father knows that you need them all.   “But Seek First the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness”, and “All these things will be added to you”.   (Matthew 6:30-33) Seek First,   The Kingdom of God and His Right Living, and you will not be Anxious. Our Daily Nugget   is letting us know that “anxiousness and worry” is due to “Little Faith”.   Little Faith leads us to try to “Figure Out How ‘We’ Can Handle Life and Make It Work”; instead of Trusting...

                                                                               Freedom. Freedom is “What We Have”! Freedom is what you have, Christ “has” set you Free!   Stand, then “As Free People”, and do not allow yourselves to become slaves “again”.   (Galatians 5:1) We Are Free, to “Do Right” and to “Do Wrong”. Our Daily Nugget is telling us that “Christ Has Set Us Free”, from the Penalty, Power and Presence of sin.   But, we can allow ourselves to become slaves “again”.   Before Christ we were slaves to sin.   We can “Stand As Free People”; “As Often As We Choose To”. We must “Preserve our Freedom”! We Preserve our Freedom through Loving the Lord and Our Neighbor”.   If we Love the world and the things in it; “We Will Not Preserve Our Freedom”, we will be...
