    When we try to live without consulting God’s word, It’s a deliberate, voluntary ignorance. But this ignorance won’t stop us from suffering the consequences for being stupid. The wisdom we need is available.It’s about letting God’s word saturate our spirit.

    There is a common desire inside everyone to want to succeed • Because we measure our worth on the basis of how successful we are. • How we measure that success is often based on a worldly standard rather than a godly standard. • Success by the world’s standard often means ...read more

    Dear Christian, how much grief befalls us because we fail to listen to the Word of God? Because we fail to RECOGNIZE the counsel of ungodly? Because we fail to AVOID areas and thoughts that lead us to sin? Because we think LIGHTLY of sin.

The idea: To start with walking in counsel that is ungodly leads to opening yourself up to outright sin, which in turn leads to feeling comfortable with it and where we eventually become numb to it and begin to laugh at ...read more
