GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 103: 1-5 Psalms 103 and 104 are a pair, connected by the phrase, “Bless the LORD, O my soul.” They also place our worship of God in an order which surprises some, but which makes perfect sense to a believer: Psalm 103 praises God for his forgiveness; Psalm 104 praises […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 131:1-3 A song of ascents. Of David. A baby has just finished feeding and is sleeping quietly on its mother’s breast.

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:39-43 39 Our fathers, however, refused to obey him. Instead, they rejected him and in their hearts they turned back toward Egypt. 40 They told Aaron, ‘Make gods for us who will go before us. As for this man Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt—we do […]
God’s Word for You – Acts 7:35-38 This is the one
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:35-38 35 “This is the same Moses they had rejected with the words, ‘Who made you ruler and judge?’ With a brilliant rhetorical device, Stephen uses a series of simple, truthful and clear statements about Moses to compare the great prophet of the Old Testament with the greater Messiah, Jesus […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:30-34 30 “After forty years had passed, the Angel of the Lord appeared to Moses in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in the flames of a burning bush. 31 When Moses saw it, he marveled at the sight. As he went closer to look, the voice of the Lord spoke: […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:20-29 Stephen Defends Himself 20 “At that time, Moses was born, and he was pleasing to God. For three months he was cared for in his father’s house. 21 After he was abandoned, Pharaoh’s daughter took him in and brought him up as her own son. Right from his birth, […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:17-19 17 “As the time approached for God to keep the promise he had declared to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt 18 until another king rose up to rule Egypt, one who did not know about Joseph. 19 He took advantage of our people and deceived them, […]
God’s Word for You – Colossians 4:17-18 Amen
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU COLOSSIANS 4:17-18 17 Tell Archippus: “See to it that you accomplish the ministry you have received in the Lord.” Archippus is called “our fellow soldier” in Philemon 2. We think that he was the pastor of the Colossian church. Why would Paul ask the Colossian Christians to pass along a message […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:11-16 11 “Then a famine came all through Egypt and Canaan, bringing great suffering, and our fathers could not find food. 12 It was when Jacob heard that there was bread in Egypt that he sent our fathers down the first time. 13 On their second visit, Joseph made himself […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:8-10 8 He also gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision. And so, when Abraham became the father of Isaac, he circumcised him eight days after his birth. Stephen, a Hellenistic Jew who knew his Greek precisely and intimately as well as an English professor knows his English grammar, uses the […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:4-7 4 “So he left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. After his father died, God sent him to this land where you are now living, 5 but he gave him no inheritance in it, not even a foot of ground. But God promised to give it […]
