Psalm 122:1 I rejoiced with those who said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord.” I don’t remember how old I was, but I was quite young when I first memorized this verse (not in the … Continue reading

Jerusalem; August 26, 2022
Psalm 48:14 For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end. Any time we read the Bible we need to remember that polytheism was the norm when it was written. … Continue reading

Songs of Deliverance; August 19, 2022
Psalm 32:7 You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. I know that “shouts of deliverance,” as the Japanese has it here, is probably the more accurate translation, but I … Continue reading

Spiritual Warfare; July 24, 2022

The Joy of the Lord; July 11, 2022
At this point the theme of the readings changes from Hope, which we have been following for some time, to The Joy of the Lord. I will not be writing on that specific point every day, but I will be … Continue reading
Praise; April 10, 2022
Matthew 21:16 “Do you hear what these children are saying?” they asked him. “Yes,” replied Jesus, “have you never read,“‘From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise’ ?” This is a verse that was used extensively in … Continue reading
Idolatry; January 3, 2022
