  • KEEP YOURSELF IN THE LOVE OF GOD September 3, 2010
    Years ago, God put it on my heart to start a boys’ home on Long Island. I truly sensed the Lord was behind this work. Yet, after just eighteen months, state officials imposed such stringent regulations on the operation of the home that we had no option but to close it down. We’d taken in four boys during the brief time we were open. After we closed down, I l […]

The Solas

Sola Scriptura
The Bible is the sole written divine revelation and alone can bind the conscience of believers absolutely.

Sola Fide
Justification is by faith alone. The merit of Christ imputed to us by faith is the sole ground of our acceptance by God, by which our sins are remitted.

Solus Christus
Christ is the only mediator through whose work we are redeemed.

Sola Gratia
Our salvation rests solely on the work of God’s grace for us and in us.

Soli Deo Gloria
To God alone belongs the glory.

Lord we bow our knees to You alone

# Isaiah 42:8 I am the LORD, that is My name; And My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved images.

My dad-in-law sent this to us and I share it with you now

May Our wonderful Lord Jesus bless you at this special time.
Let us bow down and truly worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.

“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it something to be held onto to be equal with God, but made Himself of no [...]

Lets Talk About The Truth Of What Sin Really Is

The windows of heaven are open

My dear brother Mike over at Possessing the Treasure has posted a wonderful sermon by Rev. John P. Sartelle entitled Easy Preaching for Itchy Ears

In the light of that post, I wish to put down what Oswald Chambers has to say about Sin. I read this again yesterday morning and it left me feeling that I had again come face to face with the Lord in certain areas of my life.

God’s mercy is in bringing us to a point of being able to see things about us and our lives, in such a way [...]

A Psalm of Praise for the only Almighty God

I  rejoice with all my heart that in the Lord Jesus Christ,  I have found repentance, forgiveness and salvation and that my life no longer belongs to me but to Him, that it is only through the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit that I am able to call Him, my LORD.

All praise and glory to Him for His comforting and encouraging words below which leave me so gentled and humbled in knowing His hand is fully upon my life and that it is not about anything I have done or given, but through this: -

It is only by the [...]

Psalm 24 – Sons of Korah

Psalm 24
A Psalm of David.

1 The earth is the LORD’s, and all its fullness,
The world and those who dwell therein.
2 For He has founded it upon the seas,
And established it upon the waters.

3 Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD?
Or who may stand in His holy place?
4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol,
Nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive blessing from the LORD,
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him,
Who seek Your face.  Selah

7 Lift up your heads, [...]

It Is Well With My Soul

I first sang this hymn at a tiny church about 14 years ago and it was such a moving hymn – it said so much out of intense pain and a sure knowledge of the Lord’s comfort during those times.

My brother, Andy over at Faith Defenders,  posted this on the site and added the background to it and I so wanted to share it here  as it is just so beautiful.

It was indeed written out of the depths of immense pain by Horatio Spafford as so many other wonderful words are penned by others.

May it bless you.

The Eternal Goal

In my last posting, I shared the words to the wonderful hymn, My Goal is God Himself and now here is where I first read the lines, in My Utmost for His Highest, by Oswald Chambers

“My goal is God Himself . . .
At any cost, dear Lord, by any road.”

I read them many years ago and have never forgotten them and have been brought to a place through great trials, by the Lord, to both live and love them in my own life.

Living without our agenda and allowing God to bring His about in our lives, unhindered,  brings Him as [...]
