This Jesus

Acts 2:22-41

v2 -Peter preaches that Jesus's death was part of God's plan, and that He has been resurrected from death by God. King David had prophesied this resurrection in his psalms. Peter has just explained to the crowd in Jerusalem that the Holy Spirit is working through the disciples.

Hebrews 12:2

If we are to run the life of faith, we resist the distractions and look deeply into His eyes. "Keeping our eyes on Jesus, the source and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that lay before Him endured a cross and despised the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of God's throne.

He will hold me

What is the meaning of Psalm 139 1 12?

Psalm 139 tells us that God searches us and knows us. He knows everything there is to know about you. He sees when you do kind things for others, but he also knows your thoughts — when you are angry at your brother or jealous of your friend's things.

Godly contentment

In this chapter the apostle gives some instructions to servants; lays down some rules, by which to judge of false teachers; advises to contentment; exposes the sin of covetousness; exhorts Timothy to avoid sin, and follow after things that are good, to be constant in his warfare, the issue of which would be eternal ......

God's Power, Our weakness

In 2 Corinthians 12:1-10, Paul addresses the idea promoted by the super-apostles which stated Paul was not nearly as spiritual as he claimed because he did not have the same hyper-spiritual experiences as these false teachers. While they boast of their glory and power, Paul will boast of his weakness and suffering.

Waiting for God

Isaiah 40:26-31
This chapter treats of the comforts of God's people; of the forerunner and coming of the Messiah; of his work, and the dignity of his person; of the folly of making idols, and of the groundless complaints of the church of God.

Let these bones live!

One interpretation suggests that the valley of dry bones represents any hopeless and lifeless situation. It could be a personal struggle, a societal issue, or a spiritual crisis. In these situations, the Lord calls us to prophesy, to speak life and hope into the problem.

Praying in the spirit

ude 1:17–23 lays out Jude's plan of action for recognising, resisting, and defeating apostates. Prior verses were devoted to explaining how, and why, these false teachers were dangerous. Those who followed their examples were bound for eternal judgment.

Our spiritual blessings

Ephesians 1:3–14 praises God for the blessings He has provided. Paul ties together the ideas of predestination, God's glory, the salvation of His people, and the rights we have as children of God. In particular, believers are blessed because God chose, before creation, to save us.

Hidden in Christ

Genesis 6:11-7:5 and 1 Peter 3:18-22

Genesis 6:8-22 relate that one man — Noah — was an exception. Noah made an effort to please God in spite of the ungodliness around him, and for that reason, he “found grace in the eyes of the Lord.” In Hebrew, the word grace comes from a root meaning “to bend or stoop.” Thus, grace is the condescending or unmerited favor of a superior person to a lesser one. This is the first occurrence of this word in Scripture.
It seems as though Peter nearly always returns to the cross. He constantly reminds readers that willingness to suffer for Jesus' sake is based on the wonder of Christ's willingness to suffer death on the cross for our sakes.

The one who reaches out

In Romans 10:13, Paul quotes from Joel 2:32: “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” This verse means that the gospel of faith is open to all, but there must be a proper response, which is to call on the name of the Lord.
