Walking with the Word

  • Walking with the Word – Doing Good

    “This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone.” (Titus 3:8) It is the actions of our lives which are changed because of our…

  • Taking a Break

    During the next couple of weeks, I will be taking some time away from my writing as I spend some time with my family. I have a niece who is getting married next week. It is a good time to focus on family. However, I will also be praying for you who read my post,…

    “To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be his holy people, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Corinthians 1:2-3)…

  • Walking with the Word – Crucified with Christ

    “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be…

  • Walking with the Word – Ask, Seek and Knock

  • Walking with the Word – Creator

    “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1) The Scripture has but one subject. That subject is God. When everything started, God was there before and started it all. Jesus Christ in His prayer for us before the crucifixion let us know that God and His glory was here before creation…

  • Walking with the Word – Peacemakers

    “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” (Matthew 5:9) We live in a world struggling for peace. This struggle is pictured by the Psalmist, “Too long have I lived among those who hate peace. I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.” (Psalm 120:6-7) This restlessness…

  • Walking with the Word – A Spiritual House

    “As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him—you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” (1 Peter 2:4-5) Too many times we tend to see the church…

  • Walking with the Word – A Great Light

    “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.” (Isaiah 9:2) It is a modern phenomenon which brings about a deep or total darkness. When at night the moon is new, clouds cover the sky, it is raining and all fires…
