Wisdom and Foolishness

Wisdom and Foolishness

In Proverbs chapter 1 Solomon begins by giving the purpose for writing the Proverbs. (Prov 1:2) Their purpose is to teach people wisdom and discipline, to help them understand the insights of the wise.” It’s interesting that he puts wisdom and discipline together. Discipline can be defined in a couple different ways. Discipline for doing […]

Prayers God answers

In 1 Kings 8 Solomon dedicates the temple to God. As he praises God for keeping his promise to David by allowing Solomon to build the temple, he asks God to make another promise.

A Dim Shadow

A Dim Shadow

In 1 Kings 7 it describes the incredible grandeur of Solomon’s temple. Reading this passing in the NLT really made these objects come to life. I was blown away by how big the Temple furnishing were.

Back to work

Dear Faithful partners, After 3 days away, it’s back to work. Our time away was very relaxing. It’s amazing how relaxing it can be to sit by the ocean and just listen to the waves. The Lord gave us beautiful weather. The ocean was very clear. We even got out snorkeling one of the days. […]

A love for which we owe everything

I love King Hiram’s response to Solomon when Solomon requests assistance of materials to build the temple. Hiram says, “It is because the Lord loves his people that he appointed you as king!” (2 Chron 2:11) God knows what we need. His love compels him to provide it. For the people of Isreal, God knew […]

11-From Seeing to Believing Faith

Our Situation: God loves to help us to grow in our faith. Often God will use hardship and difficulty to help us to trust Him. (Rom 5:3-5) But, sometimes He uses “No” in answer to a prayer, because He wants to teach us just to trust him and learn to live by faith rather than […]
