Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) -Hebrews 10:23



Good morning, God bless you and of course TGIF. I remember once a bluebird nest that was perched in a lower flowerbed holder. 


Which in itself would not have been a problem, but the bed was right next to the main entrance/exit of the house, so it had to be relocated. 


Before I could carefully move the nest, one of my granddaughters reached inside the nest and grabbed an egg and in her mind, the safest thing to do was to squeeze it tight to protect it. 


What you just assumed happened did, and she was both grossed out and remorseful. 


At that point I had to explain the difference between lego blocks and eggs and made a case of the similar features of the eggs in the fridge and the bluebird eggs. 


I think she stopped eating eggs for a little while as she sorted through that part of the circle of life. 


Simply put you can’t hold onto what is weak and feeble as some things are feeble for a reason, while somethings have strength for a reason. 


The Lord solidified our faith by doing what He said and in sending Christ to reconcile us to him. The tangible truth fulfilled let’s us know the strength of the truth and that we can holdfast to it. 


The Apostle Paul in his inspired letter to the Hebrews encouraged them to hold on, not loosely but fast meaning with strength. We must do the same.

And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;   We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:                   -Daniel 9:4-5 Good morning and TGIF!    Daniel the prophet offers a vital lesson on humility in these scriptures. He draws a parallel between David’s prayer (Ps 51), where David acknowledges not only his own sins but also the sins of those who came before him. Many people either deny being affected by their ancestors' sins or are quick to highlight the faults of others while conveniently overlooking their own.  In verse 4, Daniel first confesses his own sins, whether they were committed intentionally or unintentionally. Then in verse 5, he acknowledges the s...

  And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. -2 Samuel 24:24 Good morning and terrific Thursday to you!  The passage referenced tells the story of David trying to halt a plague in Israel—a plague that had come as a result of his own disobedience. To stop it, an act of obedience was required. Following the instructions given through the prophet, David sought a place to offer a sacrifice. He arrived at the threshing floor of Araunah, where the angel had ceased his destruction, intending to build an altar there. Araunah, upon learning of the king’s purpose, generously offered the space and everything needed for the sacrifice at no cost.  However, David declined the offer, as he understood a profound truth that many overlook: the principle of sacrifice is that it must c...

  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 Good morning and happy Monday to you!  The Lord Jesus came to this world not to condemn us, but to show us what true righteousness is. His mission had multiple purposes, and I will highlight two of them. First, we needed an example of righteousness—someone conceived without sin and who lived a sinless life. Next, because of His immaculate conception and sinless existence, He was qualified to be sacrificed. This requirement was too great for sinful man to fulfill. The grace it took for Him to come into this world and to die for it is truly amazing. #prayforthepeaceofIsrael God bless you and command your day!!! Your comments and questions are welcome.
