Psalm: 106  Meditation Deuteronomy is a retelling of the law. Simple enough. It also serves to “fill in the gaps” left in the law’s wake. Verse 3 cuts to the heart of the matter like a laser: “one does not live by bread alone but by every word that comes from the mouth of the …

Psalm: 119:1-24 Christmas Eve Meditation Luke: The difficulty of probing a familiar passage of Scripture such as this is the temptation not to try to find something new. This is my effort. Zechariah was a priest and as such he was a Levite. John the baptizer is but 8 days old; Zechariah, though not recognized …

Psalm 14 Meditation: Hebrews – This passage is deceptively powerful. It says that Jesus is unashamed to calls us brothers and sisters. Think about that for a moment. Th Savior of the world loves us as family. He loves us enough to suffer through every temptation and every pain so that he can help us …

Psalm: 129 Meditation This is that well-known passage in Jesus’ life while he was meandering through the desert (read: wilderness) being tempted of the devil. One particular temptation was for Jesus to cheat by turning stones into bread. Jesus quoted this passage: “…that man does not live by bread alone but by every word that …

On June 11, 2012June 12, 2012 By Nathan HallIn Uncategorized1 Comment

James the brother of Jesus writes this concerning temptations that we face. James 1:13-14 When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. God never …
