Shirking Duties

Genesis 16:2

"And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the LORD hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai."

One of the main causes of dysfunctional homes is that one or more family members are shirking their duties.

The Lord God Reigneth

Revelation 19:6

"And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth."

There is coming a day when the LORD God will reign, not only in Heaven, but in all the Earth. God reminds us of this time in Revelation 19. We see in the verse above that right before God sets up His kingdom, the angels of Heaven get excited and begin to proclaim the greatness of God. This is certainly going to be a great day.

Bible Thoughts by Terry Hedderman

Sunday, 3/23/14  Pro 20:9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin? That sin that you used to do? The one you got victory over years ago? Its seeds are still in you: be on the lookout for a reappearance. In my 50’s, I’ve had to fight against sins that I had stopped cold in my 20’s. 

It Only Takes a Few

Revelation 3:4

"Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy."

The church of Sardis was one of seven churches that God addressed. The church was located in the metropolis of Lydia in Asia Minor. This church had apparently lost its zeal to reach the lost for Christ. God said in verse 1, "I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead."
