An Imprisoned Soul

Revive me, O Lord, for Your name’s sake! For Your righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble. Psalm 143:11

Seek Jesus.

All that the world has to offer

The real person is the soul, who will live forever in heaven or hell. To have all that the world has to offer yet not have Christ is to be eternally bankrupt; all the world’s goods will not compensate for losing one’s soul eternally.

Commentary from the MacArthur study Bible, notes for Mark 8:36,37.

Set aside time

Set aside time today to really listen for Him-through Scripture, prayer, and circumstances.  When you hear from Him, respond in gratitude for His loving involvement in your life.

Commentary from the In Touch devotional by Charles Stanley, June 3, 2020.

His Comforts Delight My Soul

Have a wonderful week!

Bondage

The only remaining repository where sin finds the believer vulnerable-the mortal body.  The brain and its thinking processes are part of the body and thus tempt our souls with its sinful lusts (1 Corinthians 15:53; 1 Peter 2:9-11).

Commentary from the MacArthur study Bible, notes for Romans 6:12.

The Way Which Leads to Life

The narrow gate is by faith, only through Christ, constricted and precise.  It represents true salvation in God’s way that leads to life eternal.

Commentary from the MacArthur study Bible, notes for Matthew 7:13,14.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Every good gift

and every perfect gift

is from above,

and comes down

from the Father of lights,

with whom there is no variation

or shadow of turning.

James 1:17

Since everything that I’m thankful for is from God, I’m giving thanks to Him today.  Wishing all of you a wonderful day today 🙂
