    God's Comfort Through Knowledge Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Feb 4, 2023
     | 1,214 views

    Knowledge of God and his kingdom offers comfort to the righteous in all times of pain, sorrow, and suppression by evil beings. Daniel, in captivity, was comforted regularly by knowledge given to 'a man highly esteemed'; Daniel 9:23. Through knowledge, the righteous are comforted today.

    In our study of punishment, captivity, protection of saints, and comfort of the righteous in times of captivity, we will see God’s continued comfort in knowledge of His divine plan for mankind unto Daniel. It is safe to assume Daniel shared these bits of knowledge and wisdom with the righteous ...read more

    Joy is the normal condition for believers. In the quiet of this moment, identify your source of happiness for a moment. Ask yourself, “What made me happy that is now missing in my life?” What fire have I been warming myself at instead of Jesus?

     | 2,186 views

    Jesus wants us to have a relationship with our Father in Heaven, and in that relationship we are to ask Him for things that align with His will, doing so in the name of Jasus.

    Ask in my Name And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. John 16:23 The verse that I am using today comes from a bigger picture of Jesus telling His disciples that He will be physically leaving them, that He must ...read more

    How do we know what suffering is coming our way? We don't. But as we will see in John's writing and in Jesus's words, Jesus has already secured victory for us, no matter what we face. How privileged we are to have a Savior who has won the war for us.

    In John 16, Jesus explains to the disciples that they will face sorrow, especially as he will be leaving them. But he encourages them that in the future, this sorrow will be turned to Joy when they see him again.

    What a ruined state lives are in with devastating sorrow. Sorrow is a result of the fall but what JOY results from the work of Christ. Our faith can be underpinned by an inexpressible joy, bathed in the glory of God. Jesus has done wonderful things changing sorrow into joy.

    When Our Joy Is Complete

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Feb 19, 2026
     | 122 views

    Joy comes to us in many different ways. To the world it appears only when the pleasures of life are received, not when things do not go as we would expect or like. To the true Christian, this is the opposite of how our joy can be complete. How does our joy become complete?

    Is your joy overflowing? Are the happenings of each day filling your heart with an overabundance of joy, peace and love? The answers to these questions are relative to how you perceive each day. As the events of the day unfold, many recognize the bitterness and pain each event causes. Our hearts ...read more
