Isaiah 55 is a poem that starts like a commercial. God appears as a street vender in the marketplace near a river, eager to sell his goods, but with a big difference. What He’s offering is free.

God directs our paths and turns our trials into blessings; He works behind the scenes in Ruth chapter two. Ruth doesn't despair but gets to work.
The tragic atmosphere of Ruth chapter one changes dramatically in chapter two. In the opening verses we see Ruth undaunted by her plight. She could have chosen Naomi’s despair and bitterness, but instead she looks to God’s provision as she heads for the fields. Ruth wasn’t a ...read more

GOD’S PROVISION Ruth 2:1-23 It is hard to learn how to be satisfied with what God has given you when you start looking around and see what others have; but God tells us not to worry about God’s provision for us. Matthew 6:25-34 Our text tells us about God’s provision. God ...read more

Paul provides four keys to experiencing the inward and abiding peace that only God can give.
In our last study, as we considered the first five verses of this last Chapter of the Philippian letter, we saw how that Paul urged the importance of there being “harmony in the Lord.” That is, the Apostle stressed the necessity of their being peace between members of the Body of Christ. There ...read more

Peace is illusive in our society. But God has provided a way for us to have it through thinking about the right things.
Dec. 5, 1999 Phil. 4:1-9 How can I have Peace? INTRODUCTION If someone were to come and ask you, “WHAT IS PEACE”, how would you answer them? Peace is one of those things that everyone wants, but no one has a real clear answer of what it is or how you can get it and keep it. I like to look ...read more

Go ahead and trust him with the needs of your life - I didn’t say wants, the things that we think we need - but what do we really need. God will provide the right thing, at just the right place, at just the right time.
God will provide for all our needs. Sometimes we may question whether God truly cares for us, especially when we face difficult circumstances. But rest assured, God is our provider. He sees and cares for our needs. In Genesis 22, we read about Abraham being tested by God. He was asked to sacrifice ...read more
