Don’t be jealous when God uses others!

December 30, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Numbers 11:29 And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD’S people were prophets, and that the LORD would put his spirit upon them! There were some men who were prophesying in the camp. Other men came and told Moses to stop them. Moses said that he wished […]

Numbers 3:45 Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am the LORD.

Fair law

December 27, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Leviticus 24:22 Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the LORD your God. God told Israel to have the same law for the stranger as for the Israelites. God wanted one law for all. There wasn’t going to be one […]

Give God your best

December 26, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Leviticus 22:24 Ye shall not offer unto the LORD that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut; neither shall ye make any offering thereof in your land. Moses reminded the people that they were to give God their best. They were never to bring something that was damaged to God. They weren’t to […]

HE makes atonement for us

December 25, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Leviticus 16:30 For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD. The picture was clearly given even in the Old Testament. It was the priest that made the atonement for them. It was the priest who was […]

Always teaching

December 24, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Leviticus 10:11 And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses. Teaching people God’s Word is always our responsibility. As parents we teach our children. As teachers, disciplers, etc we teach the Word of God. As pastors and missionaries we […]

Leviticus 5:5 And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things, that he shall confess that he hath sinned in that thing: 6 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid […]

Always remembering the promise

December 22, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 50:25 And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence. God had only sent Joseph and the nation of Israel to Egypt for a time. He was strengthening and growing them. He had promised Abraham certain land. We […]

Do you sport with your wife?

December 17, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 26:8 And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife. The king looked out the window and saw Isaac sporting with Rebekah. That is a wild statement. He […]

Believing God

December 16, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 15:6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. Abraham believed God. When he believed then God counted it to him for righteousness. It wasn’t anything that Abraham did. He simply believed that God would do what He said He would do! By the way, it wasn’t the […]

It can be done!

December 15, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 9:7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein. I think that most people do not have a problem understanding that it was possible both for Adam and Eve and also for Noah and his family to reproduce and fill the earth once again. All they […]

Satan always wants to make it look like God is cheating us out of something!

December 14, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. Satan has from the beginning wanted to cause all of us to think that God is keeping something from us! Of course that was not and […]

Matthew 16:23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men. Peter loved Jesus. He wanted the best for Him. He wanted God to be glorified BUT! It often doesn’t […]

Is something choking the Word?

December 12, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Matthew 13:22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. The Word can be choked and cause us to become unfruitful. First, this is talking about salvation! Things, this world, my […]

I needed a doctor

December 11, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Matthew 9:12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. The verse is so clear. Jesus came to help those that needed help. He came to heal those that were sick and would recognize that. So often we are proud of […]

We always doubt that they will believe!

December 8, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Exodus 4:1 And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee. Moses had heard God speaking to him and still doubted that anyone would believe that God had sent him. He was afraid that no one […]

Romans 16:22 I Tertius, who wrote this epistle, salute you in the Lord. This letter to the Romans was from Paul. He dictated the letter. Paul was a great apostle. He was one of only a handful of really important and greatly used men of God. Yet, he was willing to have the guy who […]

Exodus 4:30 And Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had spoken unto Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people. I love the story of how Moses is unwilling to talk and do what the Lord tells him to do. He complains. God allows Aaron to speak for him. Yet […]
