He Only, Ps 62:2, 6
In Ps 62:2 and Ps 62:6, notice the little two word phrase, “He only.” Those two words sound perfectly exclusive. No one else can compare to the Lord in these things that David said “only” the Lord is. He only is my rock – Ps 62:2 – He is the rock from which Israel […]
My Heart Shall Not Fear, Ps 27:1-3
In Ps 27:1-3 David asks, Whom shall I fear? Of whom shall I be afraid? The context of these questions is a fight. Notice the references to the wicked, mine enemies, my foes, an host, and war. We are in a fight. Paul told Timothy to fight the good fight of faith. Paul’s own testimony […]
Are You Ready, Prov 27:1

Scorners Can’t Find Wisdom, Prov 14:6
A scorner is a person who holds someone or something in extreme contempt; one who despises. When a scorner seeks wisdom he “findeth it not.” He’s looking at it but he disdains what he sees so he doesn’t get it. Scorners can’t find: The wisdom of creation – Prov 3:19-20. God made the earth by […]

Be Thou Clean, Mk 1:40-44
Our text this morning is Mark 1:40-44 about the cleansing of a leper. Do you like things clean? Don’t you like a clean house, a clean car, a clean body, clean clothes, and clean speech? Of course, you do. God likes things clean, as well. This leper wanted to be clean. He didn’t want […]
