Our best bet as children of God is to keep calling on the Lord. He is merciful and gracious. Whatever we may be going through, let us keep close to Him. In good times He…

Saul defended his actions in 1 Samuel 15:15 and 20, before finally confessing in verse 24. Do we see our mistakes and confess or are we defensive? May we be quick to discern…

For Saul and Israel, victory over Amalek was assured. All Saul needed to do was follow God’s instructions. He did, but not 100%. May we learn from his mistake. And may the Lord give us…

When we move away from God, we make decisions based on our understanding. Soon after we start believing the wrong decisions we make and they seem like truth to us. 1 Samuel 15:1-34…

The chief priests and the Sanhedrin needed to fabricate evidence to have Jesus convicted. How hard it must have been for Jesus to endure the humiliation, beatings and false accusations, yet He bore it all…

Our plans are not as detailed as God’s are and because we don’t operate in His time and we are not like He is, our plans are not based on the eternal perspective. Peter wanted…
