Does Size Matter?

                                                                        Does Size Matter?   Goliath would say “No”, but, he’d also say, “I Thought It Did”. Come here, Goliath said (to David), and I’ll give your flesh to the birds and the wild animals!   David said to the Philistine, “you come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.   This day the Lord will deliver you into my hands, and I’ll strike you down and cut off your head.   All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and “He Will Give All Of You Into Our Hands”.   (1 Samuel 17:44-47) David was Depending on The Lord. Goliath was Depending on...

Iron Sharpens Iron.

                                                                       Iron Sharpens Iron. A Sharpened Iron is Prepared to do God’s Work. As Iron Sharpens Iron, so One Person Sharpens Another.   (Proverbs 27:17) Instead, “speaking the truth in love”, “We Will Grow” To Become In Every Respect The “Mature Body of Him” who is the head”, that is Christ.   (Ephesians 4:15) Rejoice at the Sharpening, “Looking Forward To The Fruit”.. Our Daily Nugget is saying to us that Kingdom Citizens Speaking the Truth in Love to One Another   will mature us and it is How we Keep One Another Spirituality Fit to Fight in this Spiritual War; scripture call this Process of Preparation and Maintenance, of the Kingdom Citizens, “Iron Sharpening Iron”. If The Irons Do Not Sharpen One Another, “All The Irons Will Be Dull”...

Come Meet A Man.

                                                                         Come Meet a Man. He Gives Out Living Water to all who Thirst. Jesus answered her, “If You Knew” “The Gift of God” and “Who It Is That Asks You For A Drink”, you would have asked and he would have given you living water.   Sir, the woman said, you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep.   Where can you get this living water?   (John 4:10-11) Living Water is “Spiritual Life”, it Leads to an Evangelistic Heart/Mind. Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that Jesus is All We Need, Today, Tomorrow, and Forever.   The Living Water is Symbolic of All we need for the “Completion of Our Tasks”, which is, “Living our Purpose”.   Jesus said to the woman “If You Ask”.   This is what Jesus is saying to us also,...

Oaths.

                                                                                  Oaths. Kingdom Citizens are Not to Make Oaths. Again, you have heard that it was said to an older generation, “Do Not Break An Oath” but fulfill your vows to the Lord.   But I say to you, “Do Not Make Oaths At All”-not by heaven, because it is the throne of God, not by earth, because it is his footstool, and not by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King.   Do not make an oath by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black.   Let your word be “Yes, yes, or No, no”.   More than this is from the evil one.   (Matthew 5:33-37) Oaths are Not Needed for People who “Speak the Truth in Love”. An Oath - Is a solemn appeal to God as a witness and guaranto...

Liable For Destruction.

                                                                  Liable For Destruction. Continued Sin Makes us Liable for Destruction. The Lord said to Joshua, “Stand up!   What are you doing down on your face?   Israel has sinned; they have violated my covenant, which I commanded them to keep.   They have taken some of the devoted things; they have stolen, they have lied, they have put them with their own possessions.   That is why the Israelites cannot stand against their enemies; they turn their backs and run because they have been made “Liable For Destruction”.   I will not be with you anymore “unless you destroy (repent) whatever among you is devoted to destruction”.   (Joshua 7:10-12) If you want things to Go Right, you must “First”, “Quit Doing Wrong”! Our Daily Nugget is God telling Jo...

The Church.

                                                                            The Church. Being The Church and Having Church. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward “love and good deeds”, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another-and all the more as you see the Day approaching.    (Hebrews 10:25) Jesus’ Life was “Being The Church”. Jesus Attended Church Services, Often; “Having Church”.   Jesus even   demolished a Church and its Service because the False Teachers had turned His Father’s House, “The Church Building” and “The Service”, into a Den of Thieves.   False Teachers are still doing this today to God’s Church Service and the Building.   Greed is still a Hughe Problem in The Church Today.   I...

Birth By The Spirit.

                                                                      Birth By The Spirit. He Sought The Light in the Darkness of the Night. Jesus answered, Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the Kingdom of God unless they are “Born of Water and the Spirit”.   Flesh gives birth to flesh, but “The Spirit” gives birth to “spirit”.   You should not be surprised at my saying, “You Must Be Born Again”.   The wind blows wherever it pleases.   You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going.   So it is with everyone Born of The Spirit”.   (John 3:5-8) Most Things in Life, We Don’t Understand, Don’t Be Surprised; Just Believe. Our Daily Nugget is about a man named Nicodemus, a Pharisee, a member of the Jewish Ruling Council, “A Religious Leader”, who belie...
