2 Kings 5:18-27, Covetousness

In this thing the Lord pardon thy servant, that when my master goeth into the house of Rimmon to worship there, and he leaneth on my hand, and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon: when I bow down myself in the house of Rimmon, the Lord pardon thy servant in this thing. 19 And he said unto him, Go in peace. So he departed from him a little way. 20 But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man…

The Birth of Christ, Part 1 of 4

This morning, as I mentioned, we’re going to be starting a four-week series dealing with the birth of Christ. And I want to begin by looking at Luke’s gospel in chapter 1. So if you have your Bibles, will turn with me to Luke chapter 1. I want to begin reading at verse 5, and we’re going to go through verse 25. There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judah, a certain priest named Zacharias. And his…

2 Kings 4:38-44, The Ministry and Life of Elisha

And Elisha came again to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets. 39 And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage: for they…

1 Timothy 6:6-16, Christians Should be Thankful

Paul’s Pen 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some…

2 Kings 2:12-25; 4:1-37, Elisha

We’ve been looking at the various kings, both of Israel and Judah, and the nation of Israel, as we’ve been studying, has been very turned against the Lord and following false gods ever since the two portions of Israel separated, and you have the kingdom of Judah, the southern kingdom, and the kingdom of Israel, the northern kingdom, ten tribes in the north, two in the south. And ever since Jeroboam established the kingdom and wanted to make sure that…

2 Chronicles 24:15-27, The Importance of Constantly Seeking God’s advice, Not Man’s

Joash had become a king of Judah, the southern kingdom. His grandmother was the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel of the northern kingdom. His grandfather died before he was even born. He was just a baby when his father died and his grandmother killed all of his brothers and all of the other heirs to the throne. Joash was hidden by his aunt, the daughter of his grandmother, and her husband who was Jehoiada the high priest. And they were…

1 Timothy 4:1-16, A bit of background as to where Paul was at when he wrote the letter to the Ephesians

One of the things that we often need to do is remember to count our blessings and be thankful and grateful for all that God has done for us. The last number of years, a lot of people can be very discouraged, and yet we as Christians are never to be discouraged. The Apostle Paul, and this morning I would want to take a look at some verses out of 1 Timothy to build on what we were looking at…

2 Chronicles 23:16-21; 24:1-16 Joash did what was right in the sight of the Lord

And Jehoiada made a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, that they should be the Lord’s people. 17 Then all the people went to the house of Baal, and brake it down, and brake his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. 18 Also Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the Lord by the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had…

2 Chronicles 22:10-23:15, A Wicked Mother

But when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah. 11 But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,)…

Ephesians 6:18-20, Praying and Watching

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And…

2 Chronicles 22:1-9, Evil Leadership

And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned. 2 Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri. 3 He also walked in the ways of…

2 Chronicles 21:1-20, The Impact of the Decisions We Make

Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son reigned in his stead. 2 And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah: all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel. 3 And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah: but the kingdom…
