Who We Arenin Him

Contributed by Tom Feola on Oct 24, 2012

Being In Christ is the greatest privilege for any believer. As we see in the epistles what Paul wrote of our standing with God, it will set your life free.

In Him When I first got saved at the age of 17, I went back to the church that I was raised at and said there is got to be more to be saved then this. It was so boring. Then I was introduced to some solid Christian who introduced me to the spirit filled living and man what a change. But I knew ...read more

How to develop a strong Prayer Habit is a teaching on making prayer a priority in our lives.

How to develop a strong Prayer Habit There seems to be two kinds of Christians when it comes to prayer. 1st. Those who love list and formula's to prayer. I am finding out that we don't need more heavy loads but we need to bring our loads to Jesus. Matthew 11:28-30 (NKJV) 28 “Come to ...read more

Waiting Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 29, 2012

The thing we have the least patience with is waiting. When we are facing a difficulty we want instant results. When God doesn't operate on our table we get frustrated. David got frustrated too but how he handles it can help us have patience too.

Psalm 13 teaches that waiting is really hard. There is nothing worse than being in a tough space and pleading with God and nothing happens! We saw this in Psalm 10 as well when David cried: “Why do you stand so far away?” 1 David feels like God must have forgotten him in his trial. ...read more

Is This All There Is? Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 4, 2012

In our world of entertainment, glitz, and glamor, we are led to believe that if we follow the pattern of this age we can get satisfaction. But in the end it is only temporary. David tells us that the satisfaction that comes from a relationship with God ha

Psalm 16 is a Miktam. We don’t know what that Hebrew word means, but it could suggest music in a “plaintive” style or a contemplative poem. This psalm is about God’s protection, praise, and provision. It is about how to live life in the here and now, and how to be assured of ...read more

God As Your Warrior Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 12, 2012

No matter how deep of a hole you find yourself in, if you have a relationship with God He will hear, He will find, and He will rescue you, though the victory may not be what you expect, it is accomplishing God's will

Psalm 18 is the longest Psalm we have dealt with so far at fifty verses. It appears to have been written by David (though some argue against this) at a time after his lengthy battles with enemies that surrounded Israel and Saul’s battle against him for the kingship. It really speaks to the ...read more

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 20, 2012

What fulfills your life? In this study we look at some reasons that God should be the one who brings you satisfaction, joy, answers, and rescue.

Psalm 19 is one of the most beautiful and most famous of the psalms. Most likely you are familiar with at least some of the verses in this psalm. It starts out as a meditation on how God speaks clearly from creation, moves into a description of how clearly God speaks from His Word and then ends ...read more

Do You Feel Forsaken? Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 25, 2012

Often Christians their most difficult moments when they choose to trust God in difficult times and then He seems not to answer. David, and Jesus experienced this and we can learn from their reactions.

Psalm 21 is a royal psalm that celebrates the king’s victory and looks forward to future victories over the enemies of Israel. It’s a psalm that gives us comfort as we entrust our future to Him. This is likely connected to Psalm 20 where David cried out for just such a victory. 1 In ...read more

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Dec 3, 2012

One of the greatest of all the psalms gives us hope when venturing out of the sheep pen that a God of great love will accompany us in life's darkest valleys.

Psalm 23 is by far the most well-known of the psalms. Many people who are not Jewish or Christian can often recite it from memory. It has even made its way into popular films and TV shows (mostly in graveside scenes). Overall this psalm gives us a picture of God as provider, no matter what ...read more

Victory From Mistakes Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Dec 11, 2012

Our first inclination when we blow it is to hide from God. But as we learn in these two psalms, our first reaction should be to turn to God and trust in God to forgive, heal, and teach us how to be like God. If you have ever sinned or made a mistake, thes

Psalm 24 appears to be a victory parade after a battle with the Canaanites up to the Temple in Jerusalem, carrying the Ark of the Covenant. 1 – 2 The ancient Israelites felt that the earth rested on the waters. But there is more here than meets the eye. The words “seas” and ...read more

Be Encouraged! Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Dec 19, 2012

As we walk through difficulties in life, one of the best ways to get perspective and see our way through to the end is encouragement. David shows us the best way possible to become encouraged!

David appears to be in a jam in this psalm (what else is new?). Some think that this psalm is related to Psalm 25—that the same situation is going on. It appears to be a revolt by the ruling class who are taking “bribes” (vs 10) and not acting in integrity in their relationship ...read more

God's Character And Power In Trials Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 14, 2013

In Psalms 29 & 30 23 see the awesome character and power of God, but in Psalm 30 we see David stuck in a trial. If God is so powerful how come He lets David undergo a life-threatening illness? In this we see how God works in difficulties in our lives as w

Psalm 29 is interesting to me as for one of the first times in the book of Psalms we find David not asking God for anything. There is no crisis here, no enemy that is trying to destroy David or the nation Israel. This is a psalm of pure praise and adoration for the Most High God. It reminds us that ...read more

What To Do When You Mess Up Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 21, 2013

Everybody messes up now and again. How you feel about it and what you do about it makes a huge difference. Find out how David handled sin in a wonderful way we can learn from.

It seems like in Psalm 31 David is receiving the consequences of a sin unknown to us. It has caused others around him to shun him and talk maliciously about him. In the psalm, though, David recommits his life to Yahweh and seeks God’s forgiveness and God’s answers to his plight. ...read more
