Isaiah 40:15 “Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing.” Isaiah’s attitude changes as he comes to chapter 40. Earlier chapters spoke of coming judgment through the Assyrians, but now he’s writing…

Exodus 32:1 “And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we

Isaiah 40:31 “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” Waiting is hard. I’ll be honest—I’m not a fan of it. I don’t like waiting in traffic, waiting in line,

Matthew 6:34 “…..Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” Jesus ends the passage where many of us struggle most—tomorrow. We worry about problems that have not arrived and borrow trouble that God never asked us to carry. Jesus reminds us that grace is given daily, not in advance. A God-first life learns to live

Matthew 6:33 “…And all these things shall be added unto you.” Jesus does something remarkable in this promise. He takes responsibility for what troubles us most—food, clothing, provision—and places it under His care. When God is first, fear no longer has final authority. God’s provision may not always look like our expectations, but it will

Matthew 6:33 “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness…” Seeking God is active, intentional, and continual. Jesus did not say “think about” or “admire” the kingdom—He said seek it. This means arranging life around spiritual priorities rather than squeezing God into leftover moments. A God-first life is built on daily choices—time

Matthew 6:32 “For after all these things do the Gentiles seek…” The world quietly tells us that peace comes from security, savings, and control. Yet the more the world chases these things, the more restless it becomes. Jesus says this is how the world lives—always seeking, never satisfied. God’s people are invited to live under

Matthew 6:27 “Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?” Worry rarely begins as a conscious choice. It often grows into a habit—something we return to automatically. Jesus exposes its emptiness by asking a simple question: what has worry ever truly added to your life? It has not lengthened days,

Matthew 6:26 “Yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?” It is possible to believe in God and still forget who provides. We work hard, plan carefully, and prepare responsibly—but somewhere along the way, the heart can quietly shift its trust from God to effort. Jesus gently pulls our attention

Matthew 6:25 “Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?” There are burdens we carry that no one else can see.
