What is the fate of this world? Where will it all end? Is our planet doomed or will things somehow get progressively better?

One thing is certain, our world cannot right itself. We have not and will not get better on our own. Man cannot save man. No enlightened leader, no better form of government, no more civilized version of mankind will bring about a utopian world of peace and harmony. It’s been tried before many times … and failed.

But the prophet Isaiah saw hope on the horizon. He foresaw the coming of the Messiah, the Ruler who would bring peace to the earth. He called Him “the Prince of Peace.”

Jesus is the Prince of Peace, who came already to save the individual and is coming again to save the whole world.

Until Christ returns and sets up His kingdom upon the earth we will never find lasting peace. Jesus is the hope of our world. He alone can rescue us from the conflict and turmoil we cannot break free from. When He returns a new and ever-increasing era of peace will spread throughout the whole earth. The lion will lie down with the lamb. Men will beat their swords into ploughshares. They will “learn war no more.” In all the earth no one will hurt anyone else.

“They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.” (Isaiah 11:9)

Our world lacks peace because peace is missing from the hearts of men. What Jesus will one day do for the whole earth, He now does for the individual. He came to bring peace on earth by first bringing peace to the human heart.

No man can make peace with himself or others until He has peace with God. Only through God’s Son can you be brought into good terms with your Maker. Jesus died to reconcile us to God. Through His sacrifice on the cross, God has made a way for you to have all your sins forgiven and taken away. He brings you to Himself and then enters your life, ushering in right where there was wrong; love where there was hate; joy where there was sorrow; and peace where there was chaos. He establishes His kingdom in your heart.

If the Prince of Peace is not your Savior and Lord, there is a missing peace in your life.

Turn to Him now. Call upon Him before it is too late. Let Him wipe away your sin and make you right with God. Let Him give you a brand new start and a peace you have never known before.

Where Jesus rules there is peace. Where Jesus is not Lord there can never be peace.

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.” (Isaiah 9:6,7)

— The Missing Peace – Have You Found It?

06/15/2026

Throughout His life, Jesus gladly went without what the prince of this world offered Him. He was accustomed to say, “Get thee behind me, Satan!” The devil’s overtures were spurned over and over again by the one Man whose heart was always fixed and ready to love God more than anything and anyone else.

Jesus loved God and knew God’s love for Him like no other because He kept His commands. (John 15:10) His “no” to every strange god was a “yes” to the true God. The reward for His fidelity was an experience of God’s presence and fullness unmatched by any before Him. But this abundant life is now available to all who are Christ’s. “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).

Would we have all of God? Then we must have none of what the god of this world dangles before us. We must count all his lavish offers of pleasure and gain as dung and nothing in comparison to what God has laid up for those who worship and serve only Him. “Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee …” (Ps. 31:19).

The gift of salvation is free; but there is a price to be paid if we would experience the fullness of God. Count the cost. The seducer offers you a heady experience in this world where you can have all your heart desires. But he is a liar and deceiver. You will end up horribly empty. “And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed” (Prov. 5:11).

Spiritual adultery not only destroys our soul; it denies us the incredible life we can have in God. The world has its store of supposed good laid up for us, and dares us to “go for it;” saying, “What have you got to lose?” The wise man knows the right answer to that question: Everything! Everything that is anything is found in God alone.

When the enemy invites you to his table, decline the offer; tell him you have too much to lose by partaking of his fare, and too much to gain by staying true to your covenant partner. Enjoy the feast God has prepared for you in the presence of your enemies.

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.” (John 14:30,31)

— What Have You Got to Lose?

06/14/2026

How fleeting are the pleasures of sin! What promises us fulfillment in a moment of passion, leaves us emptier than ever. After his foray into the forbidden, David experienced firsthand a soul crushing desolation which he describes as his bones being broken. He who had known fullness of joy and continuous pleasure in his relationship with the living God now cried out: “Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation …” (Ps. 51:12).

Human intimacy, no matter how pleasant or passionate, can never replace the loss of intimacy with God. Solomon, the progeny of David’s relationship with Bathsheba, in his misguided quest for “more” in this world, painfully discovered the same emptiness. He could only warn young men against forgetting God in their pursuit of this earth’s goods.

“Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment. Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity” (Eccl. 11:9,10).

While telling the young man Timothy to “flee youthful lusts” (2 Tim. 2:22); Paul also told him that God “giveth us richly all things to enjoy” (1 Tim. 6:17). God has created us with the capacity to enjoy many earthly pleasures, which are not evil in and of themselves. They only become evil when we bow down and serve them; putting them before our face and God behind our back.

When we put God first, He gladly permits us to partake of the tree of life. The gifts and blessings of this earth are ours to richly enjoy without guilt or shame. But when we put anything before God, making an idol of it, nothing can satisfy or fulfill us. “Many sorrows shall be to the wicked …” (Psalms. 32:10). Our idols fail us. They leave us high and dry. “…The rebellious dwell in a dry land” (Ps. 68:6). The lusts that drive us to them are deceitful. “Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel” (Prov. 20:17).

God allows U-turns. He is a good shepherd who seeks and saves those who have foolishly turned to their own way. If we let Him, He will restore our soul. If we return to Him, He will return to us. And with His return will come a restoration of fullness of joy and everlasting pleasure.

“Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.” (Psalm 51:8)

— The Return of Joy

06/13/2026

How do we process pain? Firstly, we want to locate where it’s coming from in order to stop it. But what if we can’t stop it? What if those who are causing us pain keep inflicting it upon us?

As a boy, Joseph lived in a painful environment. As much as he knew his father loved him, he knew his brothers hated him. Speech reveals attitude. “… They hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him” (Gen. 37:4). With each passing day they hated him more, until they sought to kill him. “Come now therefore, and let us slay him …” (Gen. 37:20).

Only by God’s intervention, through Reuben, did Joseph escape death. Sold into the hands of Midianite merchants, he ended up alone in Egypt. How did Joseph process what had happened to him? Surely, he was deeply affected by these events. “The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy” (Prov. 14:10). The beauty of the story of Joseph is what he does with his pain. “The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.” (Proverbs 27:7)

The pain we experience through the words, actions, and attitudes of others has the power to destroy us. We cannot process such blows to our spirit without God’s help. Both evil done to us, or good not done to us, can embitter us to such a degree that we ourselves turn hateful. But because God was with Joseph to help him process his pain, he did not return evil with evil when he had the opportunity to do so. “Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them” (Gen. 50:21).

Jacob knew the secret of his son’s overcoming. He knew how Joseph was able to stay strong and healthy of mind and spirit even after receiving such painful treatment from brothers who should have loved him.

“Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall: The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him: But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; (from thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel:)” (Gen. 49:22-24)

None of us will escape pain in this life. Each of us knows what has been done to us. We know how it has made us feel. There are times when we have been despised, rejected, unloved, hated. We are insufficient of ourselves to process such suffering of heart and come out on the other side the better for it. We need the very Spirit of Christ to heal our wounds and redeem our past and present pain. Only through Him can every bitter thing be made sweet.

Perhaps it will take us years to fully grasp how God was using the wrath of man to praise Him. Let us rest in the arms of Him who loves us dearly when others do not. In the end, we will know how God worked it all together for good.

“But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good …” (Genesis 50:20)

— Processing Pain

06/12/2026

To be all God would have us to be we need all that God would give us. That fullness is found in Christ. Being righteous, holy, godly, are all impossibilities outside of Christ. Man is undone without the help of God. Though he would pledge himself a thousand times over to be the person God wants him to be, he cannot accomplish the feat. Christ is all. We must be in Him and He must be in us if there is any hope for glory and virtue in our life.

The great transgression is the arrogant and foolish presumption that we can do what God wants us to do apart from the Vine who said: “Without me ye can do nothing” (John 15:5). To run this race successfully, to be an overcomer in this life, we must keep our eyes always on the Author and the Finisher of our faith. Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega, and everything in between. Don’t take your eyes off of Him.

“For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him …” (Colossians 2:9,10)

David knew the fullness of joy found when walking in the presence of God. “Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance” (Ps. 89:15). David also knew the desolation and sorrow that sin brings to the soul. “Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation …” (Ps. 51:11,12).

God wants His people to be the most joyful people on the earth. Our joy in Him is His delight. He loves for us to bask in His love for us, to glory in being His treasured people.

“Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation. Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.” (Psalm 149:2-5)

The Lord takes pleasure in His people, and He wants His people to be joyful in the knowledge of His love for them. But Israel ran into a problem when they thought God would still be delighting in them when they did what was evil in His sight. “Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?” (Mal. 2:17)

God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. We break fellowship with a righteous God when we walk in darkness. God forbid we deceive ourselves, thinking we can still know the joyful sound, when we forget God and walk after the imaginations of our own heart. “Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart” (Ps. 97:11).

The Father wanted the Son to know how beloved He was to Him. Once and again He proclaimed: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Although a man of sorrows, Jesus possessed a joy greater than any man had ever known because of His holy walk with God. “Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows” (Heb. 1:9).

Jesus doesn’t want to be the only one who knows such otherworldly joy. He desires that each of those who are His would bask in the same love and know the same bliss. Such joy though is found in walking in His same obedience. Oh the satisfaction of loving and being loved! Truly, there is nothing like it in all the world.

“As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full” (John 15:9-11).

“The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.” (Psalm 64:10)

— Basking in the Love of God

06/10/2026

We are kept from the pride of life when we don’t have anything to prove to anyone. We are not compelled to say or do anything to gain the approval or recognition of men. When we are moved to act, it is by God’s stirring – whether people like or don’t like it is inconsequential.

God weans us from our pomposity through all manner of despising and rejection. Who are we really? We are nothing apart from the working of God in our life. We have nothing to boast of or glory in except God Himself. So what then if people dismiss us as a nobody? Should we become indignant? Should we go on the counterattack? God forbid. To take such patiently, without retaliation, is to wear a greater glory than we could ever possess in ourselves. This is the glory of Christ, who was deserving of all praise and honor, and was treated like a worm.

The devil is always giving us opportunities to rise and shine and show the world who we are. He wants us to be great in our own sight and to the eyes of others. We need to pass on the opportunities he presents us with. But God also has opportunities for us to shine for Him, with a beauty and a glory that was first found in His beloved Son. These opportunities are not found in great displays of anointed power; they are best found in a scornful crown of thorns; undeserved stripes; and a cross designed for the accursed.

Man wants to be seen, known, and recognized for who he is. But our glory does not matter to God. What matters to Him is that we glorify Him. Show the world Jesus. Shine with the Son.

“Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.” (Psalm 40:16)

— Shine With the Son

The God of heaven is a generous God. He loves to give. “Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing” (Ps. 145:16). There is a rich supply for all of our needs to be met in Christ. We would have if we would but ask. If we don’t have after we’ve asked, it’s because we’re asking for the wrong thing (James 4:2,3).

God knows what we have need of, even before we ask. Are we willing to receive what’s on today’s menu for us? We may be asking God to give us today what He intends on giving us tomorrow. Today’s provision may be the patience to wait; tomorrow’s, the courage to move.

God loves a cheerful giver, and He loves a cheerful receiver. He likes when we come to His table hungry. Perhaps, the biggest hindrance to our being filled is the delusion we already have, we don’t need to pray or read His word or sit at His feet. What a tragedy, that a God who is so willing to give should send us away with nothing, because we think we’re full enough as it is.

May we never get to the place where we think we’ve “got it.” We are always in need of “getting” from a wonderfully giving God.

“He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.” (Luke 1:53)

— Getting From A Giving God

06/08/2026

Every person who becomes a follower of Christ at some point is possessed by a strong interest in knowing Him. Who exactly is this Person? One doesn’t know, but there is an insatiable desire to find out.

The Lord asked His initial disciples, “Why are you following Me?” Did they understand their strange attraction to Him? John the Baptist had pointed them in His direction: “And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!” (John 1:36). Did they grasp in that moment the full import of this man being the Lamb of God? Much later, they remained confounded by His talk of sacrificing His life. All they knew in the beginning was that their welfare was somehow dependent on being connected to Him, and they were being pulled to Him like metal to a magnet.

This attraction to Christ is the continuing mark of every true disciple. When others leave Him, they cannot. “Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life” (John 6:67,68).

Let others defect because of some offense with His word. Let others find fault with Him for some dealing with them. To the Christ lover, He remains the pearl of great price. They not only love Him, but they love His law, and nothing offends them. He never ceases to be good and wonderful in their eyes. Others tire of the Christian life; they don’t – because it is Christ Himself who fascinates them. He never becomes dull; there is always some new height or depth He is ushering them into.

Those who love the Lord don’t merely desire to spend the day with Him. “They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day …” (John 1:39) The one thing they desire is to dwell in His house each and every day, to behold His beauty, to speak to Him and to hear from Him. He is their Magnificent Obsession.

“Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?” (John 1:38)

— Magnificent Obsession

06/07/2026

Who doesn’t want a partner that is “head over heels” in love with them? What woman would ever tell her husband; or, what man would ever tell his wife: “You’re too much in love with me?”

Can we be “too much” in love with Jesus? He doesn’t think so. We are called to love the Lord our God with our whole heart, mind, soul, and strength. Some people become uncomfortable around those who appear to love Jesus too intensely. They are “fanatics.” “Jesus-freaks.” Who knows – maybe they are “cultists” of some sort. A little religion on Sunday is okay, but why get carried away?

Never be ashamed to be wildly in love with Jesus. Don’t be a fanatic about your church, your religion, your particular doctrines and practices that you think make you closer to God than others. That is cultic. Be known as purely a sold-out lover and devoted follower of Jesus Himself.

You can’t hide it when you’re really in love with someone. There’s a glow about you; you talk about your beloved; you cling to them. It also becomes evident when that love is not there. You can “go through the motions,” but it’s known, especially by the person you’re supposed to be in love with.

Jesus knows those who are religious and those who really love Him. “I know thy works …” (Rev. 2:2). He knows when you’re more about “CHURCHianity” than CHRISTianity. Eventually, everyone else finds out as well. Maybe the love relationship was never there; maybe it was left.

Be hot or be cold. Be on fire for God; or admit you don’t love Him. God is not interested in “show marriages.” He is passionately in love with us. He wants us to be passionately in love with Him.

“Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.” (Revelation 2:4)
