The Temptations Of Jesus

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 21, 2013

The temptations expose our vulnerabilities. Beware of the devil's traps of performance (we are what we do), popularity (we are what others think), and possession (we are what we have).

Jesus was tempted, so are we today. Jesus overcame the temptations, so can we today. • Even under a direct confrontation with the devil, alone in the wilderness, under harsh circumstances, Jesus won. If the devil tempts Him these ways, it would possibly mean that these were good entry ...read more

In The Name Of Jesus

Contributed by Vicki Williamson on May 24, 2021

Today’s text is a real life drama. It is after Jesus had been crucified, raised from the dead and ascended into heaven. The players in this high drama are the disciples of Jesus, a lame man, the people in the temple, the priests, the religious leaders and of course God.

When we come to the scriptures it is important that we open up our hearts and minds to hear from God. As it is His truth and His love story to us. Therefore let us surrender to Him all our emotions and thoughts. Father by your Spirit as we come to today’s text give us fresh eyes to receive a ...read more

Folded By Jesus

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jun 25, 2023

What it means to be folded is, to beat someone up, or the newer past tense version of that, to receive a beat-down. Now Jesus does not physically beat any one up, but He sure delivers a spiritual pounding.

Folded by Jesus Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, he passed by on the ...read more
