     | 265 views

    The Jordan River that was overflowing miraculously parted for the Israelites, in that same River Jordan Naaman was healed of his leprosy, and Jesus was baptized in the same river. Miracles will happen in our lives when we too can trust God fully, and obey His Word implicitly.

    Today’s meditation is based on Joshua 3:13, “When the priests who carry the Covenant Box of the LORD of all the earth put their feet in the water, the Jordan will stop flowing, and the water coming downstream will pile up in one place." (GNB) These are the words that Joshua received from God ...read more

    Faith is so central to our salvation that there are those who believe believing is the ONLY thing we need to do to be saved. But is that true, and where did that idea come from?

    In my files I have a comment of an economics professor who explained his problem with Jesus. He said, “I really don’t see how Jesus can be the only way to heaven.

Language is how we communicate with each other, and how we communicate is VERY IMPORTANT. How we say things; the kind of words we use; and even the punctuation we use in our ...read more
