  • The Types God Chooses

    The Types God Chooses

    God has made a certain promise a few times now to Abraham. He will have a son by Sarah. From that son will come many nations, so many descendants that if anyone can count the stars, they can also count Abraham’s descendants. Abraham and Sarah are both beyond childbearing years. Yet, God assures them about…

  • All Eyes on Me

    All Eyes on Me

    After He predicted the destruction of the Temple, Jesus taught about the kingdom of heaven as a kingdom that the master had left in the charge of his servants during his absence. Jesus then began to prepare His disciples for His own absence and the establishment of His kingdom, which is at hand during Jesus’s…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 15:22-27

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 15:22-27

    The people of Israel can’t find drinkable water. Instead of asking God to provide, they grumbled against Moses. Had they already forgotten the power and goodness of God? God provides for them by making the bitter water sweet. Different types of log will remove metallic contaminations from water, like an acacia sapwood and date palms.…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 15:1-21

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 15:1-21

    Moses and all of Israel sing a new song about what Yahweh has done. There are no gods like Yahweh, who actually acts and does wonders. All other gods are silent as if they do not exist. The fame of Yahweh goes out to the nations because of what He has done in Egypt. Yahweh…

  • The Master’s Departure

    The Master’s Departure

    Jesus told two parables in order to teach what the kingdom will be like when He leaves His disciples. It will be like ten virgins eagerly awaiting their bridegroom. It will be like servants with whom a master leaves his fortune until he returns to collect his return. When the master returns, He will judge…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 14:13-31

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 14:13-31

    Israel, who displayed such unbelief before crossing the sea, believed in God and Moses after they were delivered from Egypt. I think this is true for nearly everyone, even people who are religious prior to actually being delivered from their sin. Human nature is such that we don’t believe until after we are delivered. I…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 14:1-12

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 14:1-12

    The Egyptians regret letting Israel leave. Their labor force was gone and they faced a possible period of economic recession. Pharaoh mounts his chariots-six hundred select military chariots and all his transport chariots-in order to retrieve his slaves. The people of Israel worry they will die in the wilderness as they see Egypt overtaking them.…

  • Christ’s Glorious Return

    Christ’s Glorious Return

    Jesus has been answering His disciples’ question about the fall of Jerusalem. After telling two parables about what the kingdom of heaven was and would be like, he begins teaching about the moment He will sit upon His throne. Matthew’s Gospel and all of Jesus’s teaching is about the coming kingdom of heaven. During His…

  • The Call to Holy Living

    The Call to Holy Living

    God has made a one-sided covenant with Abram. It depends only on Him. We even saw Him remain faithful to Abram’s descendants even when Abram and Sarai were impatient and schemed to produce an heir without God. God will accomplish His plan and even carries His promise over to Hagar’s descendants even though He is…

  • The Parable of the Talents

    The Parable of the Talents

    Jesus’s disciples asked Him when the Temple would be destroyed. Jesus responded by giving them the signs in Matthew 24. Now, Jesus is telling two parables that depict the kingdom of heaven. The two parables paint a picture of the same spiritual reality, a reality that is not assigned a particular time but is true…
