    "Peter, Feed My Sheep” (3 Of 21)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022
     | 2,288 views

    In Acts 9, we read of the exciting conversion of the Apostle Paul as he traveled to Damascus to persecute the New Testament Christians.

    After the Lord miraculous converted Paul, the Lord told him to go into the city and he would be told what he was to do. The apostle Peter's conversion was unusual as well. The Lord first met him by the sea of Galilee. Look Matthew 4:18, “And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two ...read more

    …. Paul was still fighting the good fight … and running his race …. imparting his wisdom to Timothy his spiritual son. …. In this second chapter of this epistle Paul shares with Timothy why petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving must be made for all people (1 Timothy 2:1).

     | 969 views

    None of us can forgive the wrongs done to someone else. We can, however, show mercy to anyone who is suffering - whether forgiveness is involved or not.

    Every week it seems like there’s another new disaster. The 10 plagues that Moses visited on Egypt to convince Pharoah to free the Israelites almost pale in comparison. Talk about plagues? We hoped that 2021 would see the end of Covic19 but noooooo. And as if that weren’t enough, an earthquake ...read more

    John says we've been given the right to become Children of God. How do we receive that right, and what can it mean to us?

    A preacher was on a radio program where the interviewer was an atheist. The atheist demanded that the preacher NOT quote any scripture during the interview. “I don’t want to hear any Bible on my airways. You got that? No Bible on my airwaves.” So, then the interviewer started the program by ...read more

    Physical solutions don't solve spiritual problems. If God doesn't answer your prayer, could it be that he is waiting for you to be open to a deeper gift?

    I heard a marvelous story the other day... One day a wise man was out walking when it started to rain. He began to run, to try to stay ahead of the drops. An onlooker asked him, after the wise man had gotten to shelter, why he had run, it didn’t look wise to the observer. And the answer came, “I ...read more

    The real fools are those who, being satisfied with their lives as they are, forget God, forget their neighbors, and forget their mortality.

    What is wrong with this picture? Imagine that you are in the audience that long-ago day in Judea, listening to Jesus preach. There are thousands in the crowd, but you got there early. In fact, you waited all night to get a good seat. Jesus’ reputation has grown all over Palestine, and people have ...read more

    When the world swarms with corruption, God draws a line of beauty and covering—turning our chaos into peace through His power.

    There are moments when life hums instead of shouts. You can’t see the problem, but you can feel it—the buzz in your ear, the sting on your skin, the constant irritation that keeps you awake at night. That’s what chaos sounds like when it’s close. It doesn’t roar like a lion; it drones like a ...read more
