In Matthew 6:9-15, Jesus gave the disciples a pattern to follow in prayer; thus, the disciples (and people today), utter the words but seldom understand how this prayer pattern relates to the church, the body of Christ, and how it places us in a frame of mind for total surrender to the Lord Christ’s (Colossians […]
The Apostle Paul in Romans 8:12-17 explains how the Holy Spirit confirms (witnesses) our salvation, our spiritual change from slave of Satan to child of God, which includes confirmation that we are legally God’s heir and Christ’s joint heir of everything; allowing us to understand God is eternal—always has existed and always will; therefore, our […]
When reading our Bibles, there are some, at times, “mystery Scriptures”, making us wonder how the biblical writers knew this information, years in advance of it happening, such as John 12:37-41, of the Prophet Isaiah, in the Old Testament, seeing Christ Jesus’ glory at His death on the cross, burial, and resurrection, and even spoke […]
Scripture shows only two ways to live: from faith or from sin, for 2 Corinthians 5:6-8; Galatians 2:20, and Romans 14:23 tells us until we are at home with the Lord, we can only walk by faith and not by sight, although as Christians, we were crucified with Christ, and He now lives through us, […]
Christians will never fully understand the value of prayer, until we understand Ezekiel 22:23-31; 1 Thessalonians 5:12-22; 1 Timothy 2:1-7, and Romans 12:9-21, especially verse 12. These Scripture very strongly teach us the most important prayers we offer to God, through Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit, are humble, loving, caring, concerned prayers of faith […]
Jesus, in John 15:1-8, says without Him we cannot do anything but burn eternally; yet with Him, He through us, can do everything He already had planned before creation, for every detail of life has a specific purpose, and a preset time to begin and end. Jesus goes on to say, in John 15:9-17, if […]
Jesus says in Matthew 12:33-37 and Luke 6:43-45, every tree is distinguished by the kind of fruit it produces—bad or good fruit (character)—and Galatians 5:16-26 describes both the fruit (works) of the flesh and the fruit of the Holy Spirit, but as a “parable” it could be, as sinners, we are a sour lemon, receiving […]
Stones in the Temple – written Wednesday October 27, 2021, by Tim Nabors. In John 8 Jesus, in the temple, conversed with the scribes and Pharisees, on whether to stone an adulterous woman, by sinners that had also sinned; therefore, Jesus in agreement with Numbers 5, especially verses 11-23, proving Jesus is God’s Priest, whose […]
Our Lofty “Title”, His Humble “Title” – Written Wednesday October 20, 2021, by Tim Nabors In our human lives we love and long for “Titles”. We long to see letters in front of our names or behind our names. We work so hard for these letters. Somehow, we feel a Title is a place of […]
“Childlike Fundamentals” –written Friday November 5, 2021, by Chaplain Tim Nabors. The Lord protects those of childlike faith… (Psalms 116:6a). I am not talking of childish faith, but the innocence of a child with childlike wonder, amazement, trust, longing, thirst, hunger, and childlike enthusiasm and excitement. Have you ever told your child if they are […]
In Leviticus 21:10-12, God commanded the high priest to be set apart, for he was holy to the Lord, because of the covering of anointing oil poured on him at his consecration, his total dedication to the service of the Lord. In Isaiah 10:24-27, God promised Israel, even though the Assyrian army had attacked them, […]
In John 16:16-24, Jesus assures us although He left us and ascended back to the Father, He did not leave us helplessly alone, knowing we would face extreme problems and persecutions (verse 33), yet instead of now coming to Him, take all our problems directly to the Father in His name, and the Father will […]
