NOT A HITCHING POST

READ:
.
The Lord said, "Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; then you will find rest for your souls. But they said, â€˜We will not walk in it' " (6:16).
God urged His people to look back so they could move ahead. The purpose of considering the ancient paths was to find "the good way" marked by God's faithfulness, His forgiveness and His forward call.
God can teach us from our past that the best road is the one we walk with Him. - David McCasland
Though I know not what awaits me-
What the future has in store,
Yet I know that God is faithful,
For I've proved Him oft before. - Anon.

God's guidance in the past gives courage for the future.

Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
(2 Peter 3:18)

God in His grace has centered every blessing for us in Christ. Without Christ, we have nothing, nothing but our sins; with Christ we have all things, and therefore want nothing in addition to Christ. As...More

SPIRITUAL WARFARE I

When we are told to put on the whole armour of God, one thing becomes clear instantly. This is the fact that there is a God. We cannot be talking of the armour of God if there is no God. Anyone who thinks that there is no God is a fool (Psalm 14:1). You have to pray that God would reveal Himself to you. The...More
