Consequences; August 23, 2025


Isaiah 65:11 “But as for you who forsake the Lord    and forget my holy mountain,who spread a table for Fortune    and fill bowls of mixed wine for Destiny…” This is a hard section to write on, because from here on God is contrasting the fate … Continue reading

Spiritual Alertness; August 20, 2025


Isaiah 60:1 “Arise, shine, for your light has come,    and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.” It strikes me that everything in this well-loved and glorious chapter is about things God does for His people, not things we have to do. The one thing … Continue reading
