Still

February 28, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Chronicles 33:16 And he repaired the altar of the LORD, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD God of Israel. 17 Nevertheless the people did sacrifice still in the high places, yet unto the LORD their God only. He repaired the altar. He made sacrifices. He […]

Dying unwanted

February 27, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Chronicles 21:20 Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings. What a sad story we find in this verse. He had […]

Standing against the current

February 26, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Chronicles 17:3 And the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto Baalim; 4 But sought to the LORD God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel. God blessed Jehoshaphat because he did right. He […]

What is in your heart?

February 25, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Chronicles 6:7 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel. Solomon knew what his dad so profoundly desired. David, Solomon’s dad, had wanted to build a house to the name of the Lord God of Israel. He had wanted […]

It all comes from Him

February 24, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Chronicles 29:12 Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all. We forget that we are His creation. We need to remember that He is in charge of […]

Inspiring Others

February 23, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Chronicles 20:6 And yet again there was war at Gath, where was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes were four and twenty, six on each hand, and six on each foot: and he also was the son of the giant. 7 But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea […]

Defying God’s Rules about Sex

February 22, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Chronicles 14:3 And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begat more sons and daughters. As David settles in as king, he takes more wives and proceeds to have more children. God never meant for a man to have wives. God made Adam and Eve with no replacement parts. That is His plan. […]

Glory to their false god

February 21, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Chronicles 10:10 And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon. When the Philistines killed King Saul, they took his armor to the house of their false god, Dagon. They also planted the head of Saul in their temple. Thes trophies of war […]

Trust brings help

February 20, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Chronicles 5:20 And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them: for they cried to God in the battle, and he was intreated of them; because they put their trust in him. Don’t you just love seeing how God has helped His people? […]

The prayer of Jabez

February 19, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested. Here is […]

Evil like your father

February 18, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Kings 23:37 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done. Jehoiakim did evil in the sight of the Lord. Man may have his opinion of what is right and wrong but what is actually wrong is what God states. Man likes […]

Destruction by idols

February 17, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Kings 17:16 And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal. 17 And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, […]

Obey from the heart

February 16, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Kings 10:31 But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, which made Israel to sin. Notice that Jehu will not obey. He will not pay attention to what God has told him to […]

Go big or go home

February 15, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Kings 4:3 Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. God is going to answer the widow’s prayer. All she has to do is prepare for the answer. The lady is to get all the pots and pans that she can get. She […]

Parental influence

I Kings 22:52 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin: He did evil in the sight of the Lord. That is bad […]

Too late to mourn

February 13, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Kings 13:30 And he laid his carcase in his own grave; and they mourned over him, saying, Alas, my brother! This prophet had caused the death of his brother prophet. He had lied to him. He had deceived him and now felt guilty about what he had done. He had caused his death. It […]

Do not go after other gods

February 12, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Kings 11:10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods: but he kept not that which the LORD commanded. The commandment was as clear as the one given in the Garden of Eden. Don’t eat of that tree. Don’t go after other gods. Solomon like man always […]

All people of the earth

I Kings 8:43 Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for: that all people of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as do thy people Israel; and that they may know that this house, which I have builded, is called by […]

Solomon’s wisdom

February 10, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

I Kings 4:33 And he spake of trees, from the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl, and of creeping things, and of fishes. The man who wrote the biblical book of Proverbs was a sagacious man. He […]

He hears your prayer of distress

February 9, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Samuel 22:7 In my distress I called upon the LORD, And cried to my God: And he did hear my voice out of his temple, And my cry did enter into his ears. When David was in trouble, he prayed to God. God heard his prayer. God paid attention to David. If there is […]

A Father’s love

February 8, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Samuel 18:33 And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son! David loved his son Absalom, but […]

Secrets don’t stay secret

February 7, 2018 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

II Samuel 12:12 For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun. When we sin, we think that no one will find out but how wrong we are. We feel that we are not hurting anyone else but ourselves. Somehow we believe that it can be […]

Share and share alike

I Samuel 30:24 For who will hearken unto you in this matter? but as his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike. There are some who will go into battle and others that will stay at home helping them. There […]

I Samuel 24:5 And it came to pass afterward, that David’s heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul’s skirt. 6 And he said unto his men, The LORD forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the LORD’s anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed […]

I Samuel 9:2 And he had a son, whose name was Saul, a choice young man, and a goodly: and there was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person than he: from his shoulders and upward he was higher than any of the people. Saul was a very handsome man. He was the […]

1 Samuel 14:6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised: it may be that the LORD will work for us: for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few. Jonathan and his armor-bearer […]
