God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall he

November 23rd, 2025: Ezekiel's Responsibility | Ezekiel 33:7-16
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. (Jeremiah 17:9-10). The setting of Ezekiel chapter thirty-three is in the time after the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians and the burning of the temple.

November 16th, 2025: Ezekiel's Sign | Ezekiel 3:10-11, 24:15-24, 27
Around the time of Israel’s defeat and captivity, cataclysmic battles were being waged between two great world empires: Babylon and Assyria. Egypt, once the powerhouse of the region, had been defeated and was rapidly losing influence. Meanwhile, not long after Babylon was victorious, the rise of the Medo-Persian Empire loomed large as it began to rise in power and influence. It was a time of great upheaval, resettlement, and profound loss for the people of God. Through th

November 9th, 2025: Jerusalem's Fall | 2 Kings 24:18-20, 2 Kings 25:1-9
2 Kings 24:18-20 During the final days of the nation of Judah, before it was crushed and burned by the armies of Babylon, King Mattaniah, who was renamed by Nebuchadnezzar Zedekiah, sat on the throne in Jerusalem. Long gone was the abundance of a land flowing with milk and honey; compromise and looting had cheapened and sullied Solomon’s temple, and the great armies created by King David were a distant memory. Long-time enemies, the Syrians, the Moabites, and the Amorites,

Thus saith the Lord, He that remaineth in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth forth to the Chaldeans shall live; for he shall have his life for a prey, and shall live. Thus saith the Lord, This city shall surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which shall take it. (Jeremiah 38: 2-3).

October 26th, 2025: Changes Promised | Jeremiah 31:29-34, John 1:17
For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer. For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law: Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in th

October 19th, 2025: A Family's Example | Jeremiah 35:5-11
Thus saith the Lord, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the Lord which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the Lord. (Jeremiah 9:23-24). “If all your friends jumped off a bridge, would you jump off the bridge also?” Whether we
