“How long will You forget me, O Jehovah? Forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my inner being daily? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? Consider and answer me, O Jehovah my God; enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death; lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him, and those who oppress me rejoice when I am shaken.” Psalms 13:1-4 Sometimes a Believer, a true Christian who has repented and believed into Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, might call out to God. The hope might be for an immediate response, it might be that whatever it is that the Believer is calling out to God for, might be resolved, according to His will. There are times that a Christian is waiting on the Lord, but are pressed regarding there seemingly being no answer regarding the supplication made to Him who Created them. Certainly such things happen. Who can tell God when the right time to respond is? Who can contend with Him? Who else can a Believer go to? No one. “Truly I know it is so; but how can a man be just before the Mighty God? If one wished to contend with Him, he could not answer Him one time out of a thousand. He is wise in heart and mighty in strength. Who has hardened himself against Him and been at peace? He removes the mountains, and they do not know when He overturns them in His anger; He...

“For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, I will now arise, says Jehovah; I will set him in the safety for which he pants.” Psalms 12:5 All over the world there are those who are oppressed. How often does man’s system of oppression, through various means, affect a large amount of people through greed and a desire of control? How often are people struggling throughout their entire lives, just trying to make a life for themselves and their family? While those who reside in the United States have such plights, those numbers are nothing in comparison with those throughout the world, those who are the oppressed of the world. Literally what was God’s original intention has become rotten through the consequences of sin entering the world. The curse has made things to where they are today. Let’s just be frank about the state of our societies of the world. Quite often the focus has recently been on the ridiculous amount of increase in bubbles, as well as debt throughout the world. The focus is often on those who are in the midst of this system, putting their treasures of the world (Matthew 6:19-21), before seeking God Almighty, their Creator, of whom they will give an account to (1st Peter 4:5). Yet there is a world, one of which I have seen with my own eyes, that is outside of the scope of those same people who literally live for the moment and blow with every wind of doctrine that comes their way or joining in movements or trendy events as they...

“Unto You, O Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.” Psalms 25:1 In who else does the Believer put their trust into? Who else do we lift up our souls up to? There is none, but God Almighty! “I am Jehovah, and there is none other, no God besides Me”… Isaiah 45:5a “O my God, I trust in You; do not let me be ashamed; let not my enemies triumph over me. Yea, let none who wait upon You be ashamed; let them be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause.” Psalms 25:2-3 The missionaries who braved the harsh jungles of Africa and still brave such conditions, those whom God has called to preach the Gospel to those in the ends of the earth, who do they put their trust into? The preachers who hold underground churches in repressive regimes throughout all of the world, in whom do they put their trust? The Christians in those same countries who spread the Gospel to those who are willing to hear, who become Saved in the midst of oppression from their family and peers, in whom do they put their trust into? Those who knock on doors, spreading the Gospel in the harshest neighborhoods in the United States, to whom do they put their trust into? Certainly God, for their is no other. For if God has called them, if they are truly Saved, if they have repented and believed the Gospel, if by faith they have believed into Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, then what fear do they have in doing what the Lord...

“Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Everyone practicing sin is a slave of sin.” John 8:34 The other day I stopped into a local restaurant to pick up some food. Around me were the emotionless faces of those also waiting, as well as the staff of the restaurant who had some heavy rock music blaring in the background. Business as usual as people were picking up their food, with blank stares. Looking around, knowing that most of the world’s population are unsaved, the shackles of sin were apparent to those around me. I was standing amongst slaves, slaves to sin. Was there anything remarkable about these customers and employees? Was there anything that made them worse than any other sinner, who is lost without Christ as their Savior? No, but at that moment as I was in there picking up dinner, the realization that there are so many lost, so many people who are slaves to sin, who desperately need Jesus as their Savior, hit my soul hard. Having worked in the restaurant industry for many years, I can attest that much of the people whom I have worked with over the years have serious consequences from the sin that is in their lives. Yet, all mankind, irregardless of how many consequences they face from sin in their current states, have the most serious consequence awaiting them, should they not repent and by faith believe into Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Perhaps you are one of those who are reading this. Maybe you realize that you have so many issues,...

“The earth is Jehovah’s, and the fullness of it; the world, and those who dwell in it. For He has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the rivers.” Psalms 24:1-2 The very foundation of knowledge in our societies of the world should be that we were Created. If man believed God, if they believed His Word and understood that indeed God created the heavens and the earth, then logically one would proceed to the Bible to find out what God has proclaimed to us. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1 “For the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is clearly recognized by them, for God has revealed it to them. For ever since the creation of the world the unseen things of Him are clearly perceived, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they know God, they do not glorify Him as God, nor are thankful, but become vain in their reasonings, and their stupid hearts are darkened. Professing to be wise, they become foolish, and change the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore God also gives them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who change the truth of God into the lie, and fear and serve...
