Zechariah 10:1 Ask the LORD for rain in the spring, and he will give it. It is the LORD who makes storm clouds that drop showers of rain so that every field becomes a lush pasture. I think there’s a danger of thinking the means to solve our problem is the answer instead of the…

Did You Hear It?
Amos 3:7 Indeed, the Sovereign Lord never does anything until he reveals his plans to his servants the prophets. I thought this was interesting. Does God still reveal his plans to His prophets before acting? If He does, are we listening? It makes sense, though. God doesn’t want to hurt His people. He’s rather have…
But Even If He Doesn't
Daniel 3: 17-18 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve is able to save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty. But even if he doesn’t, Your Majesty can be sure that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set…

I’ve found that when I’m in the middle of a situation, it’s easy to start thinking that blessing means…
Tell Me Clearly
Psalm 5:8Lead me in the right path, O Lord, or my enemies will conquer me. Tell me clearly what to do, and show me which way to turn. This is so often my heart’s cry. I want to do God’s will, and I want Him to show me what it is. The problem is that…
Complications
Isaiah 28:12-13 God’s people could have rest in their own land if they would only obey him, but they will not listen. So the Lord will spell out his message for them again, repeating it over and over, a line at a time, in very simple words. Yet they will stumble over this simple, straightforward…
