Show Them a Better Way

Isaiah 61:3

. . . give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. 

Go find them and preach the gospel to them.

Find the brokenhearted and bind em up

Find those prisoners to sin and tell em how they can be free.

Show em how the doors to their prison can be opened.

Find the ones who mourn and comfort them.

Give them the beauty of our loving Savior for the ashes satan has given them.

Show em how our great God can make them become trees of righteousness.

A Little Kindness

The great God and Creator of all needs you.

Salvation, while it is Free, is not Welfare it is Workfare. Ya can't earn it nor can ya pay for it. But you MUST have enough character and gratitude to at least try!

God has no hands but your hands. He has no heart but yours. Open your heart. Reach out with your hands. Offer a hand of friendship to a brother or even a stranger at church. Its what Jesus would do.

He gives life

As promised here's your verse to memorize for the week of July 6, 2025.

Hope ya accepted my challenge of learning a verse a week. If so then a year from now you will have hidden in your heart the living Word of God; useful in your warfare with the devil; comforting to you and others who struggle; God's Word that will change your life.

Here's your verse. It reminds me that He will never let me go. Read it over and over. Then move down to the ones with blanks and read them; filling in the blanks from memory. Memorize the location too! Spend time with this scripture every day.

You got this!

And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

                                        John 10:28

And I ______ unto them eternal _____; and they shall _______ perish, neither shall any man ______ them out of my _______. 

                                          John 10:28

                                          John 10:28

Be Like David

At the Strays meeting I challenged us all to memorize a Bible verse every week. I hope every guy reading this will accept the challenge. 

There is no power greater than the Word of God when fighting the devil.

I will give you a new verse each week on Monday night.

At the bottom of this post you will find the scripture for the week. It's a verse that states how King David felt about the Word of God.

Here are some helpful tips:

Write the verse on a card or a post-it note.

Put it on the mirrow where you shave & brush your teeth. Read it over n over while you're in front of the mirrow.

Tape it on your steering wheel and glance at it while youre driving.

Put it in a note on your phone & read it often during the day. Read it several time during lunch.

Put it on a card on your bedside table and study it before going to sleep.

Im praying for ya. You pray too & ask the Lord to help you remember it. Plus ask him to speak to you through the verse.

Finally, it is important to memorize the location of the verse as well.

I Love ya & I pray for ya everyday.

Here ya go:

Psalm 119:130

"The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple."

Hidden in the Heart

Hello my Brother in Christ. 

As I challenged ya at the meeting Saturday, here is your scripture for this week.

Look it up! Write it on a card or post-it note. Put it on the mirrow where ya shave & brush your teeth. Put a copy on your steering wheel. Hide it in your heart! Hide it in your mind!

Memorize it!

Already know this one? That's great. But treat it just like ya never heard it before. And re-learn it. Ok?

And dont forget to memorize the location  of the verse also. Very important.

After studying it and repeating it several times come back here and read it aloud and fill in the blanks.

Finally. Pray and ask the Lord to help you remember it and to speak to your heart through the verse.

I'm praying for you.

Keep in touch with me ok?

My Prayer for You

The Prayer Paul Prayed for Us

Ephesians 3:14-20 KJV

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, [15] Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, [16] That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; [17] That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, [18] May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; [19] And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. [20] Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.

Brother Kurt sent me this scripture yesterday. I'm sharing! Perhaps it is just what ya need to hear. God's word is like that!
