It was the Blood of this Perfect Paschal Lamb that had made the difference at Calvary. Let us remember the price that was paid for our eternal life. And remember that the story does not end with the grave.

Judas left behind the goodness and mercy that could have followed him for the rest of his life. He had left behind Jesus, who would spend just a few more intimate moments offering up future compensations and a new commandment of love for those whom God had given him.

Do you have a quick prayer of petition that you use most of the time? Sometimes all we need is to phrase a plain petition to God, and this simple and plain prayer, can be a starting point for the remedy of all our needs.

This is a fact: Because of our position as believers in Jesus Christ, we are blessed with divine privileges and spiritual assets unimaginable. Therefore, the question is this, "What does it mean to have divine privilege as we strive to walk in the paths of righteousness?"

Looking toward Easter, we all have such glorious reasons to give thanks for a dying and resurrected Savior who indeed is Goodness and Mercy. Therefore, let the redeemed thank God for His Goodness and Mercy.

We may find ourselves in situations that will cause us to have liquid prayers. Crying is not only cleansing but also a delicate method of entreating God for a cause. Sometimes the burdens we carry causes us to have liquid prayers out of despair. We must remember that Jesus has experienced the ultimate of emotions that we too feel, Yet His tears were tears of unfailing love.

"I am the Lord your God". The law was not given as a means of salvation. It was given to a people already saved in order to instruct them in the will of the Lord so that they might fulfill God’s purpose for them as “a kingdom of priest and a holy nation”. The revelation was given not to give but to guide life.”

Repent or perish! Bear fruit or be cut down! Purge righteous hypocrisy! Parables change the way people think about the kingdom. Jesus spoke in parables so that His Hearers could easily interpret the "point" and maybe change their way of thinking.

The story about Jesus having compassion for those around Him is a story certainly worth telling. No matter how dire the situation, Jesus in His God-Man compassion offers us joy, light, and hope.

It is with the "Amen!" that we close prayers. So let the church say: "Be Solemnly Assured!" Amen is the word us to affirm someone when we are with what they are saying, that to be solemnly assured that what is being said is the truth.

The Genesis promise, the patriarchal promises made with Abraham. God changes his name from Abram, meaning a high and exalted father, to Abraham, father of many nations. Sarah's name was also changed from Sarai, meaning princess to Sarah a noblewoman, the bearer of sons who would be the seed of many nations. Jesus promises us a new name in Glory.

Sin can be a heavy load even upon the most insensate or hardened of hearts. Here is where God is able to step in and forgive unconditionally. Then in a similar way, just like King David, our testimony of liberation from the load having been lifted is one we want others to know. We want to tell them, "Yes God is able!" We can't thank God enough!

Only Noah and seven others, his wife, three sons, and their wives were saved from the great flood; saved by God's grace. The rebellious, unpersuadable, and unbelieving aggravated God's patience. It seems though there was enough time for repentance, as it took Noah 120 years to build the ark!

Christ call each of us to be His ambassadors. Rev Eleanor writes about a time when she heard a pastor explaining the ambassadorship we have inherited, his statement was that we are under new management. So, what exactly was he talking about? Paul explained this thought to us in the sense that if we are in Christ then we are new creatures! What a great expression of what it means to be a Christian.

Often in life we may experience unwanted and sometimes unnecessary pain. This pain is the kind that throbs, lacking any pill that can cure it or make it subside. Habitually it may even be self-inflicted. It is the deep kind of pain that is perhaps much like what King David experienced after his grave self-inflicted error.

"Blow the Trumpet, Sound the Alarm!" These are the words of the Prophet Joel. We are a successive generation to the words of this prophecy. The alarm is still being called, "Where Shall You Be?" O Where shall you be when the first trumpet sounds, where shall you be when it sounds so loud, when it sounds so loud as to wake up the dead, O where shall you be when it sounds?"

For many of us, Lent can be a time to desire to graduate our faith to a higher level. It can be a time when we desire to delve deeper into the Holy things of God, pray more, fast more, or even just be still in God's presence more.
