January 24 And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. — Deuteronomy 6:6-7

Teaching Diligently

The Bible says, “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).  I think it needs to be made very clear what God is talking about here. Someone said, “I can’t understand it. What did I do wrong? My son is involved in dope, sin, adultery, and rebellion. I can’t understand it. I trained him up in the way he should go. I sent him to Sunday school... More
January 23 Whoever sheds man’s blood, by man his blood shall be shed; for in the image of God He made man. — Genesis 9:6

Consistently Pro-Life

I believe the Bible teaches capital punishment and that our crime problem would plummet if justice were faithfully and swiftly carried out. One time after speaking on the matter of abortion someone said to me, “Do you believe in the sanctity of life?” I said, “Yes, I do.” “Then I assume you are against capital punishment.” “No, I’m not.” “Why not? You’re not being... More
January 22 For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. — Psalm 139:13

Right to Life

One of the great evils in our time is abortion, and it is done in the name of “choice.” The only “choice” the abortionists ever give anybody is “Tuesday or Friday? When do you want to have the abortion?” Any of you who may be pro-choice, I just want to say to you this: “You ought to get down on your knees and thank God that your mother wasn’t pro-choice.” It is interesting that abortions...

January 21 The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you. — Philippians 4:9

The Biblical Secret to Mental Health

The Bible says, “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things” (Philippians 4:8). Here we find the Biblical secret of mental health. Actually, it is a secret not only of mental health but also of a... More
January 20 Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. — 2 Timothy 2:22

Flee Temptation

We live in a world that is constantly bombarding us with all manner of sinful thoughts and actions so that our consciences become continually more and more desensitized. This is what the world does; this is what Hollywood does. It continually desensitizes us until we come to accept things that at one time we would never accept at all. “Is thy servant a dog, that he should do this great thing?” (2 King 8:13) says one character...

January 19 Who will deliver me from this body of death? I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! — Romans 7:24-25

Deliverance

What is salvation? It is essentially the deliverance from sin. In our society today, that would seem rather irrelevant because we have got­ten rid of sin. Several years ago, a famed psychiatrist authored a book entitled Whatever Became of Sin? It has evaporated. Bring up the subject of sin on some talk show and people would look in stark horror at you. Sin, of course, is any disobedience to God. Salvation is deliverance from... More
January 18 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. — Joshua 1:9

Be Courageous

Courage and fearlessness are, and ever have been, the hallmarks of true believers. In the New Testament the Jews took note of the disciples that they had been with Jesus when they saw their “boldness,” their intrepidity, their courage, their fearlessness. Those, who but a few weeks before had fled before the wagging finger of a little servant girl, now stood before the Sanhedrin and dressed them down. What made Joshua bold, and... More
