Romans 8:9-17 - Searching For Identity? (A Short Bible Study)

Send Tim a note [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2536383/fan_mail/new] The story we tell ourselves about ourselves matters quite a bit. I’ll let that thought sink in for just a moment.  It’s a statement about identity and I believe that it can shape our daily lives dramatically.  So, what do the Scriptures say about that? Who does Jesus say we really are? We’re in Romans 8:9-17, the part of the letter where Paul teaches us more about the life-changing reality of being sons and daughters of God.

Genesis 24 - The Role of Trust & Discernment (A short Bible Study)

Send Tim a note [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2536383/fan_mail/new] Following Jesus rarely looks like a detailed set of instructions from IKEA (there’s a joke in there somewhere).  There may be moments like that but most of the time, God asks us to do two things: trust Him and use discernment. We’re in Genesis 24, the part of the story when Abraham sends off his senior servant to find a wife for Isaac.  Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2536383/support] For a reading plan and to learn more about this devotional.  Check out the website! https://meetmeintheword.com/ [https://meetmeintheword.com/] Want to support this ministry but don't want to do the monthly subscription?  Click the link below. https://buymeacoffee.com/timothysamuel [https://buymeacoffee.com/timothysamuel]

Matthew 8:5-13 - Finding Unlikely Faith (a short Bible Study)

Send Tim a note [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2536383/fan_mail/new] Sometimes spiritual lessons show up from the most unlikely of people.  We expect to learn from people who have studied for years and look the part but then someone who doesn’t fit those expectations comes along and undeniably demonstrates faith, even humility. No, I’m not actually talking about the poorly dressed, unbathed person that darkens the door of a pristine church. We’re in Matthew 8:5-13, the part of the story where someone with power and authority humbles himself before Jesus and exercises faith that caught Jesus’ attention.

Psalm 24 - Change Your Perspective, Find Hope (A short Bible Study)

Send Tim a note [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2536383/fan_mail/new] Sometimes the difference between discouragement and awestruck wonder is a tilt of the head. Knowing yourself is important.  People that lack self-awareness tend to blunder badly.  Gaining a new perspective on life usually means a willingness to shift our gaze. Spend your life looking at yourself and you’ll see your own issues. Spend your life looking at God, and you’ll find a new heart and lasting hope. We’re in Psalm 24 where David allows himself to get caught up in the glory of God.
