Something that I think bears watching... "As BRICS group is set to meet for its annual summit in October, it is expected that several European countries may join the alliance". European countries ditching US for BRICS? And several BRICS leaders won't be attending Zelensky's peace […]

Distractions and incessant noise
Saturday, May 18 2024.
Today I woke up early. And as is my custom, I read and meditated on a few chapters of Scripture (John 18 - 20). It's pretty clear that Jesus walked His final hours alone. He had no one but His internal convictions and purpose to carry Him through to the end. His final recorded thought: When Jesus […]

assumptions
Wednesday, May 15 2024.
At the time of Jesus' first coming, there were many assumptions about what He would accomplish and how. Many of these popular assumptions proved incorrect. There were also many prophetic details fulfilled in ways that were not anticipated. I expect to see a similar outcome at His second coming.

The Divine Assembly

The Hebrew word "elohim" (translit.) appears four times in this Psalm of Asaph. It's translated to the English "God" or "gods" here - depending on how it's used. What's up with that? God [elohim] presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods […]
The revealing of the sons of God
Thursday, May 2 2024.
The revealing of the sons of God: But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. And many who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake, some to everlasting life, but others to shame and everlasting contempt. Then the wise will shine like the […]

"I am going there to prepare a place for you"
Wednesday, May 1 2024.
“In My Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and welcome you into My presence, so that you also may be where I am." - John 14:2-3 When He said He would […]
