Undoubtedly, you will never offer any incense or other savor against Satan more efficacious than employment upon God's commandments and words, and speaking, singing, or thinking thereof. For this is indeed the truly holy water and holy sign from which he flees, and by which he is driven away. ”Join us in warding off the devil's temptations and growing in knowledge and appreciation of the truth of God and his love for sinners.

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” These are the first words that God inspired Moses to record on the pages of Holy Scripture. It's the beginning. The story of Creation and the Fall into Sin. It's the story of God's grace to his people. Sinners though we are, God came down to promise salvation to his people, and he began to unfold that story through Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. On the pages of the book of Genesis, we read about who our God is and just how much he loves his people. Join us for this devotional study of the very first book of the Bible and grow in your appreciation of your God and his love.
