O C T O B E R 1 2 “…And the Gospel must first be preached to all nations.” — Mark 13:10

Christopher Columbus

Christopher Columbus used to be a hero. Today, he is politically incorrect and unjustly blamed for many of the bad things done in the wake of his historic voyage. His name, Christopher, means “Christ-bearer.” Pherein, the second part of his name, means “to bear”—the one who bears Christ. Interestingly, the pilot of the Niña, one of the three ships made famous by Columbus, drew a map of the known world.... More

O C T O B E R 1 1 “Do not abandon me, O Lord; O my God, do not be far from me.” — Psalm 38:21

Unanswered Prayer

Unanswered prayers—the bane of every Christian’s life—is the distressing problem of the children of God down through the centuries. It is, in fact, the cause of spiritual retrogression. It is because of unanswered prayers, perhaps more than any other reason, that Christians pray less, and when they pray less, their lives are less changed by God and their prayers are consequently less answered. The result is that having... More

O C T O B E R 1 0 “If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” — 2 Chronicles 7:14

A Nation in Need of Prayer

Every once in a while a national tragedy takes place. For a short time, it jolts many people into returning to church or looking to God for help. Then fairly soon after, many go back to business as usual. It is tragic that such horrible things as what took place in Columbine would be necessary to awaken an apathetic people to the need for this country to return to God. Solzhenitsyn, the great author and intellectual of the Soviet Union,... More

O C T O B E R 9 “If Christ is not raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins.” — 1 Corinthians 15:17

Just the Product of Change?

Are we just random accidents, with no future hope beyond the grave? Evolutionists essentially believe we are. Listen to what British atheist Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) said in his book, Why I Am Not a Christian: “…man is the product of causes which had no prevision of the end they were achieving…” Evolution says we’re here by accident. Continues Russell: “…his origin, his growth, his hopes and... More

O C T O B E R 8 “But one thing is needed. And Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken from her.” — Luke 10:42

Listening to Jesus

The late motivational speaker Zig Ziglar once made an interesting comment about focus. He said suppose you took an outside stack of old newspapers, papers that would easily go up in flames with the right input and a magnifying glass on a sunny day. If you took that glass and you slowly moved it around in an unfocused way, nothing would happen. But if you carefully allowed the magnifying glass to stay at the same place—in a focused... More

O C T O B E R 7 “I will remember the works of the Lord; surely I will remember Your wonders of old.” — Psalm 77:11

A Good Memory Leads to Thanks

The word “thank” comes from the same root as “think.” People are not thankful usually because they are not thoughtful. They don’t think about things that have been done for them and so they don’t thank people for doing that. We are not going to be glad and joyful over something and thankful for it if we don’t think about it, and so we need to constantly remind ourselves. That’s why the... More

O C T O B E R 6 “Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!” — Philippians 4:4

Rejoice in the Lord

Paul’s letter to the Philippian Christians is an epistle of joy. The words joy, rejoice, and rejoicing appear over and over again in this epistle. In the final chapter, Paul gives this command. It is an imperative: Rejoice in the Lord! Now we generally tend to say to people,” Well, I hope you will be happy.” Paul never said that. He said, “Rejoice!” That’s a command, an imperative in the Lord. Why is that... More
