God and His rainbow

Hallelujah
https://odb.org/2024/08/18/heaven-is-singing Revelation 19:1-5: 1 After these things, I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honour and power belong to the Lord our God! 2 For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication;Continue reading “Hallelujah”
Welcoming little children
https://odb.org/2024/08/12/welcome-mat There are three concepts in Jesus’s teaching in Mark 9:30-37. The first is that Jesus needed to die first before He rises again. At that point, the disciples of Jesus didn’t understand what He was talking about. The second is that the least is the greatest, and it speaks of servant leadership in theContinue reading “Welcoming little children”
God’s Word
https://odb.org/2024/08/11/scripture-lovers Psalm 119 celebrates the love of the Psalmist for the Torah, described as His law, His precepts, or His commands, statutes, or commands. As in Psalm 1, the wisdom is that if we love His Word, we are like a tree planted by streams of water that will be properly nourished to bear fruitsContinue reading “God’s Word”
God is our refuge
https://odb.org/2024/07/24/my-true-refuge If we have been with our spouse, say, for fifty years, from courting days until we grow old together like the Chinese say, from dark hair to grey hair, it may be really tough and difficult for us to carry on living if our spouse departs the earth before us. We would have beenContinue reading “God is our refuge”
God looks at the heart
https://odb.org/2024/07/10/search-my-heart The thing about God looking at the heart, rather than our appearance or credentials or background, is that no one else really knows what’s in our hearts. So, man, still look at credentials and background, and that is why churches still look at your seminary qualifications, and those in full-time ministry still chase afterContinue reading “God looks at the heart”
Freedom in God
https://odb.org/2024/06/19/the-god-who-announces-freedom The story of God calling Moses in Exodus 3 at the burning bush is probably familiar to most of us as it is a passage often preached from the pulpit. I think I have heard a message on that at least a few times in my life. There are familiar themes on the holinessContinue reading “Freedom in God”
Discipline by the Father
https://odb.org/2024/05/24/correction-with-a-kiss To me, the touching part of Hebrews 12:10 is that God disciplines us so that we may share in His holiness. He corrects us because He loves us. He corrects us so that we don’t go too far astray that we end up losing our inheritance in the saints. If we are not onContinue reading “Discipline by the Father”
Better to be with Christ
https://odb.org/2024/05/17/a-change-of-venue I was down with a cold and a bad cough with fever the past few days and thus was not able to write. I am now recovering with antibiotics and some good cough mixture. 2 Corinthians 5:1-10 is a well-known passage from Paul’s letter to the church in Corinth. It speaks of him preferingContinue reading “Better to be with Christ”
