05/29/21 Daily Devotion – The intent of God’s heart!
“For six years you are to sow your fields and harvest the crops, but during the seventh year let the land lie unplowed and unused. Then the poor among your people may get food from it, and the wild animals may eat what they leave. Do the same with your vineyard and your olive grove. […]

“Do not mistreat an alien or oppress him, for you were aliens in Egypt.” (Exodus 22:21 NIV84) I want to make this perfectly clear from the very beginning. God does NOT want us to remember our past so that we wallow in the guilt and shame of the sinful mistakes we’ve made. From that perspective, […]

“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.” — Exodus 20:17 (NIV84) We’ve heard the phrases, “The grass is greener on the other side” and “Keeping up with the Jones’s.” If you’re at all […]
05/23/21 Daily Devotion – Do not lie or gossip!
“You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.” — Exodus 20:16 (NIV84) For most of us there is not much wiggle room with this commandment.
