God provides the sacrifice

February 28, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 22:8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together. Abraham is going up the hill to sacrifice his son. He, however, knows that God is going to provide the sacrifice. He knows based on God’s promise that Isaac will live. […]

So easily led into sin

February 27, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 19:32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father. Be aware of sin and temptation. Know that at any minute you could lose your testimony. It takes a lifetime to build a reputation that can be destroyed in seconds. I […]

A sad ending

February 26, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 9:24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him. No matter how God has used us in the past we cannot let up. Sin would destroy us. The man so greatly used of God ends up drunk and shamed. I consider the way both of us […]

I have gotten a man!

February 25, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 4:1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare ||Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord. When Eve gave birth to her son she was excited like any mother would be today. But I believe that she was excited for another reason. She must have thought, wondered, […]

Who told you that you were naked?

February 24, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Genesis 3:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat? This verse makes several things obvious but I overlooked them for years. It wasn’t Jesus or God who told them that they were naked. So we know that […]

He is worthy

February 23, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Revelation 5:12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. 
We spend most of our lives thinking that we are worthy. We find ways to feel good about ourselves. We are proud of ourselves. We hide […]

Living out His plan for us!

February 22, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Peter 1:20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, God made a plan to rescue us from sin long before we were ever born. As you read the Old Testament you see the shadows of the truth that will be revealed in […]

Grow up Spiritually

February 21, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Hebrews 5:13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. When you get started in the […]

Pray for the Word

February 20, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Thessalonians 3:1 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: Paul was preaching the Word of God. We know that the Word of God is powerful, alive, and works effectively in the lives of people. But it is […]

God’s Word Works Effectually

February 19, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Thessalonians 2:13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe. This is one […]

He was made a curse for us

February 18, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Galatians 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: The law was more than we could ever do. Our inability, rebellion, and desire to do things our own way brought the curse on […]

February 17, 2015 By Robert Canfield Leave a Comment

On March 15, 2015 Vision will be celebrating its 9th birthday. God has been so good to us. We currently have 20 missionary families that have been sent out in the past 9 years. God has allowed us to start a church in Norcross, Cobb County, and Cartersville. We have given over a $1 million to missions. […]

Comforted to comfort

February 17, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Corinthians 1:4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. God allows me to be comforted when I am going through tribulation and problems. He works in me so that He can […]

Use the Bible

February 16, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Corinthians 2:4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. Paul was careful to use God’s Word to see people saved. […]

Paul wanted fruit in Rome like he had in other places

February 15, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Romans 1:13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles. Paul writes the church in Rome, or at least to the beloved of God that were called to be […]

Noble, fair minded people studying their Bible

February 14, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. When Paul and Silas arrived in Berea they went to the synagogue of the Jews in that city. There they found a group of […]

How do we first see Paul get into ministry

February 13, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Acts 11:26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. Barnabas was working in Antioch. Saul who would later be called Paul was in […]

They had been with Jesus

February 12, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Acts 4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. They realized that these men had been with Jesus. They knew that in and of themselves they would never have […]

Into harm’s way

February 11, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

John 11:8 His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again? Jesus knew that His life would be in danger if He went back there but He did. He knows that many of the missionaries and preachers are going into harm’s way. That is His […]

Jesus said He was equal to God

February 10, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

John 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. The title to this little devotional wouldn’t shock you if you are really a Bible believer. You know that Jesus is God. God […]

He loves spending time with His disciples

February 9, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Luke 22:15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. He really wanted to spend time with them before He suffered. He […]

A very hard verse

February 8, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Luke 16:13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. You have to choose. That is what makes this verse so hard. You have to love only one. […]

Parent Corner: The Lost will not get saved by accident.

The Lost will not get saved by accident.  Text: Romans 10:14-21 February 8, 2015 Romans 10:14 “How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?.”  Our young people have to be […]

The Father ran and kissed him

February 7, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Luke 15:20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. The son had gone off into wicked sin. He had wasted his life and all that he had. Now […]

Will you pray for workers to carry the gospel?

February 6, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Luke 10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. Jesus wants the world to know of His love. He wants them to see what He has done on the cross […]

He couldn’t help loving

February 5, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Luke 7:13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not. You can’t read the story of Jesus without seeing His great love. His name and compassion go together. I just did a quick search and found 10 times that Jesus had compassion on people in the […]

Sunday in Review

February 4, 2015 By trent cornwell Leave a Comment

I never find writing the “Sunday in Review” especially easy. Today is extra difficult because there is so much to cover that I fear once I start I may never stop! It was a wonderful day! I truly, truly mean it. I know there would be many reasons for me to say that Sundays around […]

Making disciples

February 4, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Luke 6:40 The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master. When you are a disciple maker you will be training a person to be like you. Many people think of discipling as teaching the foundations of Christianity. In a sense this is correct. We do […]

Hard for rich people to get to heaven

February 3, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Mark 10:23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! It is not the money that hinders them from getting into heaven. It is the pride that comes with having money. Some how money can deceive you into thinking that […]

What is eternity worth?

February 2, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Mark 8:35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it. 36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? 37 Or what shall a man give […]

Hindering Jesus

February 1, 2015 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Mark 8:33 But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men. Peter meant to be loving Jesus. He simply didn’t want to see Jesus hurt. So many […]
