    The most important thing to pass down to your children is not wealth, but a solid faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

    What will you leave behind when you are gone? We come into this world with a clutched fist, and we leave this life with open hands. When we leave, we leave it all behind. I saw a bumper sticker that read, “We are spending our children’s inheritance.” What do you desire to leave behind for your ...read more

    based on 84 ratings
     | 11,492 views

    Too many people are in bondage to their negative thinking, irrational assumptions and sinful tendencies.

    Many people start well but finish poorly. In Judges 2:11-23 we see how Israel began well but gave into a cycle of sin and slavery. The pattern is repeated seven times in the book of Judges over a 350 year period. This cycle of slavery to sin points out the truth of Galatians 6:6 which says, "Be not ...read more

    The Children of Israel begin the period of the Judges well, but begin to neglect their relationship with God and this leads to defeat, much as the Christian who does not nurture that relationship with exist in the weakened flesh.

I know, today a visit to a public school by a religious official would warrant calling out the SWAT team and raising the terror alert to red, but it was a different nation in those days. Anyway, I remember this gentleman ...read more

     | 11,452 views

    In one of the saddest chapters of the Bible, Israel first neglects, then abandons their relationship with Yahweh. Through it all, though He remains faithful to them and stands ready to help when they cry out, just like with us.

    I was 16 years old. It was my first "real" job after working as a newspaper delivery person for many years.

    When things go wrong, we are right to look for a reason. Certainly in the case of Israel at the beginning of the book of Judges, the problems were obvious. Are these true of us?

    God’s command to Israel to drive out every idol and every idolater from Canaan has a definite meaning to every Christian. Drive out every sin.

    DRIVE OUT SIN OR IT WILL DRIVE YOU! Judges 2:1-22 One of the greatest problems that I see in the church is that fact that too many people follow the same path that Israel followed when they first entered into the Promised Land. They were quick to forget the great miracles of deliverance that God ...read more
