Like Hidden Gold

Like Hidden Gold
The truths of the Bible are like gold in the soil. Whole generations walk over it, and know not what treasures are hidden beneath.

So centuries of men pass over the Scriptures, and know not what riches lie under the feet of their interpretation. Sometimes when they discover them, they call them new truths. One might as well call gold, newly dug, new gold.

The Bible, without a spiritual life to interpret it, is like a trellis on which no vine grows—bare, angular and in the way. The Bible with a spiritual life, is like a trellis covered with a luxuriant vine—beautiful, odorous, and heavy with purple clusters shining through the leaves.—BEECHER.

Triumphs of Faith

D.L. Moody

How are we to get the victory over all our enemies? Joseph represents a more mature Christian. He could walk in the dark. He survived thirteen years of misfortune, in spite of his dreams, and then credited it all to the goodness and providence of God.

The Source of Everything

David Jeremiah

When David prayed a prayer of thanksgiving for the resources given by all the people, he made it plain that whatever they had given came first from God. It’s so easy for us to forget the origin of everything we own.

Develop a Vision of Victory

Joel Osteen

Do you have a vision of victory for your life? Do you perceive victory in your every step? Are you living each day filled with faith and expectancy? Today’s verse doesn’t say that God is going to do a new thing some day.

Think the Way God Thinks

Joel Osteen

Begin today to think the way God thinks. The Bible says, “The path of the righteous grows brighter and brighter and brighter.” Think increase... Think big... Think expansive! Start expecting the unexpected and look at life through your eyes of faith.

Wisdom in Building Up

T.D. Jakes

WE can build up ourselves, cultivate a sense of expectancy about the coming of the Lord, have compassion on those who have fallen, and be moved with zeal to make a difference in the lives of those who have spotted their garments.
