A Good Memory Brings Comfort to God's Child
The psalmist is in the midst of affliction and in the process of waiting on God for deliverance. However, in the midst of his waiting He calls on God to remember His Word, and he himself is comforted by remembering the past works of God on behalf of His people; and by remembering God’s nature and character. The remembrances and thoughts of God that comfort the psalmist and strengthen his love for God and hatred of wickedness, are all centered around God’s word.

Stay Awake
While at his post, the guard stays alert, keeps watch. He reports all suspicious activity; he sounds the alarm when danger is near. He never sleeps on duty and is always prepared to act at a moment's notice. To be on guard is the responsibility of those assigned as guardians. They stand watch in the towers and remain vigilant and are trustworthy. The Church has been given the task of being a guardian of the faith handed down from Christ to His Apostles. She must "stay awake," being ever ready to sound the alarm.

Called To Be Church
The phrase “all that Jesus began to do and to teach” is the clue to the way one should view the Book of Acts. It is the continuing story of the work of Jesus through His Spirit in the life of His body, the church.

A Hope Long Coming
Having to wait can be a frustrating experience. We have all had to do it at some point in our lives. It may have been waiting for summer break when we were in school, or waiting in the doctor’s office for the appointment that was thirty minutes ago. We do not even like to wait at a stop light, though it will only take a couple of minutes. We are truly an impatient people. Unfortunately, this impatience has also affected our spiritual lives and our relationship with God. Though we have great promises of hope to come, we think God should be doing more for us now. This has led us to be dissatisfied in times of suffering thinking that God has forgotten us or doesn’t care about us. Yet such a thought could not be more untrue. Today, as we look at 1 Peter 1:10-13, we see that the hope we wait for was a hope that was promised long before. The events of Christ’s suffering serve to remind us that God is in control of this world, and if Christ suffered, he will surely be glorified. These events that were foretold long ago came to pass, and they remind us that God’s word can be trusted.

The Wedding
God’s plan for any couple getting married is that they have a pure and joyful wedding celebration to unite their lives as one spiritually, emotionally and relationally. Then, they have a magnificent, amazing and steamy wedding night in which to celebrate their wedding and unite their lives as one sexually. It’s a simple plan…and it works.

The One
It’s interesting how our culture thinks we should pick a marriage partner on the basis of who we like or “love”. We think we can make a wise choice on marriage when we have never been married. We think we can choose our life mate when we don’t even know who we are ourselves, much less who we will become.

5 Ways To Wait
We all hate to wait and yet most of us believe that God is sovereign in His planning and timing. So why do we hate to wait? James 5:7-12 shows us that as believers, we are to wait without worrying, without wavering, without whining, without wondering and without warranting.

"Wait 'til Your Father Comes Home" A Lesson on the Wrath of God
Part 10 "Wait 'til your Father Comes Home" Romans 1:18-19 As we look at this weighty scripture, we should give attention to: 1. Contemporary preachers' fear of preaching this truth. We must speak of this truth because: * The Bible proclaims it. * It teaches us about our greatest problem. * It gives us a proper view of God. * It gives us a passion for the gospel. 2. A proper understanding of the facts surrounding this truth. The Bible speaks about: * The characteristics of this wrath. * The consistency of this wrath. * The categories of this wrath. * The course of this wrath. 3. The primary focus of this wrath. God's wrath is being revealed because of humanity's: * Ungodliness * Unrighteousness * Unwillingness 4. The perfect formula for turning away this wrath. This biblical formula involves: * Examining your life. * Making every effort to know God. Allowing your life to be an evidence of God's grace.
