Day 5 – You Provide the Faith

1 Kings 17:9 – “Arise, go to Zarephath…I have commanded a widow there to feed you.”   It would be an odd thing for God to tell you that He’s done something, but then when you show up and it’s not be done. Why would He say He’s done it if it looks and sounds […]

1 Kings 17:1 – “Now Elijah the Tishbite, from Gilead the settlers, said to Ahab…”   There are some people in history that you hear little about, but what you do hear is a big deal. Like nuns. You hear little about Catholic Nuns. There was one nun you’ve probably heard about. A little Albanian […]

Day 20 – The Curtain’s Closed

Matt. 27:59-60 – “And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen shroud and placed it in his new tomb…”   It’s hard to hold out for a miracle. It’s tough to wait on God’s divine timing. It’s trying to believe what God said when the avenue for your miracle lays dead. […]

John 12:44 – “Jesus cried out, “The one who believes in me believes not in Me, but in the Him who sent Me.”   No matter who tries to describe it, no one can clearly articulate it to the degree that it deserves. I’m talking about the Passion of Christ. A previous (verse 37) gives […]
