Isaiah 55:8 says ​​'For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways', declares theLord.That's a profound statement that certainly puts us in our place. But don't think it lets us off the hook. We'll discuss on MoneyWise, we'll discuss a God's eye view of money. Howard Dayton is a MoneyWise contributor and the founder ofCompass Finances God's Way. He's also the author of several books on biblical finance. A GOD'S EYE VIEW OF MONEY We can't manage money wisely unless we understand God's perspective on it. Howard Dayton says he's convinced Jesus said so much about money for two reasons: How we handle our money impacts our fellowship with Him.He wants to help us handle money wisely. Jesus revealed a direct relationship between how we handle our money and the quality of our spiritual lives. In Luke 16:11, He asks a penetrating question:"So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?" Every time you apply one of God's financial principles, you will find yourself drawn closer to Christ. On the other hand, if you are unfaithful, your fellowship with Him suffers. But there's another reason why Jesus taught so specifically on the handling of money. THE IMPORTANCE OF MONEY AND HANDLING IT CORRECTLY He knows that money plays a big part in our lives. We spend much of our time working for it, deciding how to spend it, grappling with debt, thinking about where to save and invest, and praying about giving. The Lord knew money would be a challenge, even a source of conflict for many of us. So God wants us to manage money wisely, and that's why He's given us clear, practical truths in the Bible that really work. They are His roadmap to guide us on our financial journey. GOD'S ROLE AND OUR ROLE God has certain responsibilities, and He has given other responsibilities to us. Most frustration in handling money comes because we don't realize which responsibilities are ours and which belong to the Lord. It's helpful to understand this division as you evaluate your current situation. God's responsibility is that of the Owner. He created all things and owns everything. Psalm 24:1 tells us,"The earth is the LORD'S, and everything in it" Scripture gets even more specific. Leviticus 25:23 identifies God as the owner of all the land:"The land must not be sold permanently, because the land is mine and you are ... my tenants." Haggai 2:8 says He owns all the mineral riches of the earth: "'The silver is Mine and the gold is Mine,' declares the Lord Almighty." HOW DOES OUR VIEW OF MONEY CHANGE WHEN WE ACKNOWLEDGE GOD'S OWNERSHIP? Every spending decision becomes a spiritual decision. No longer do we ask, "Lord, what do You want me to do with my money?" The question becomes, "Lord, what do You want me to do withYOURmoney?" When we have this attitude and handle His money according to His wishes, spending decisions are just as spiritual as giving decisions. The word that best describes our responsibility is steward. Stewards manage someone else's possessions or money. Our responsibility is summed up in 1 Corinthians 4:2,"It is required in stewards that one be found faithful." Before we can be found faithful, we must know what we are required to do. Just as the operator of a complicated piece of machinery studies the manufacturer's manual to learn how to operate it, we need to examine the Owner's manualthe Bibleto determine how He wants us to handle His possessions.

Fr. Mike points out how violence begets violence in the reading from 2 Samuel, and shows us how the sins we commit extend much further than ourselves. We also read about the Temple musicians in 1 Chronicles, we hear Psalm 39, written by one of those musicians, Jeduthun. Today's reading are 2 Samuel 20, 1 Chronicles 25, and Psalm 39.

Psalms 115:1-18

When you can't feel God with your feelings, feel Him with your faith. There are plenty of times in life when we feel like God isn't with us because we are focused on our emotions. These are the times when it is crucial to speak Scripture over our circumstances. Then we will find ourselves being lifted out of the pit.

Psalms is Israel's hymnal: it is poetry laced with strong theology. In Hebrew, this book is called Tehillim = ''Praises." There are 55 psalms addressed to ''the chief musician." [Greek: psalmoi, ''a poem to be sung to a stringed instrument'' or psaltar, for harp or stringed instrument.] History instructs: Law teaches: prophecy announces, rebukes, chastens: morality persuades. Psalms is the medicine and succor for the comfort and encouragement of us all. They are written to the individual-all of us, individually. Jesus said that the psalms spoke about Him (Lk 24:44). Christ's birth, betrayal, agony, death, resurrection, ascension, coming again in glory, and His worldwide reign-all are pictured in inspired vividness. They constitute irrefutable testimony to the Divine inspiration of the Scripture. This study contains 24 hours of verse by verse teachings. Copyright © 06-22-2007

THE THESIS: To not see what's coming and be in the “news” business is to be cowardly, lazy or spiritually blinded. Look back at the past ten years and tell me I'm wrong . . .   THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  2 Corinthians 4:4-5 4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 5 For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. THE NEWS & COMMENT: A guest of Bobby Kennedy now sees what we have been warning about for a decade [AUDIO] -  The Shift Towards Brazen Totalitarianism: "Shut Up and Get in Line!"  --- "I feel like the overarching message of the last two years has been coming from power has been 'Shut up and get in line because we're the ones running things, and we can do this to you any time we want!' " I am sorry for spreading the conspiracy theory that the so called “transgender” “bathroom diktats” were part of a far bigger conspiracy to break down the family and create leftist victims of The Party and lifelong pharma addicts. Flashback Friday on May 13, 2016 the Obama admin directed every public school to provide bathrooms for transgenders or lose federal funding.  "It's just a bathroom..." [AUDIO] - FOX Audio [AUDIO] - Brian Morgenstein - GOP “strategist” response A conversation with HydroFlask. I am so sorry for warning for nearly a decade that forcing people to speak words--like pretending men are women; pretending they are racist for simply being white--would lead to the government seizing control of language.  [AUDIO] -  Biden's "Ministry of Truth" director says she wants "verified people" like her to be able to edit people's tweets so they can "add context to certain tweets"  -- Scott Adams agrees:  I am sorry for telling people the Seattle drug laws were part of an international effort to get people addicted to drugs, to tear down the family, to tear down America [AUDIO] -  Jen Psaki says that it is a "conspiracy theory" that HHS "safe smoking kits" contain crack pipes. -- "It's not accurate." Yes, Safe Smoking Kits Include Free Crack Pipes. We Know Because We Got Them. Free Beacon Investigates: Five cities, five free crack pipes [AUDIO] -  Free Beacon reporter @PatrickHauf  tells Tucker about his work for the crack pipe story: "Boston was the worst. I go there and there's at least a dozen drug addicts walking around ... they put me in a system for free. Walk in, walk out, get the crack pipe." I cannot apologize enough for telling you the mRNA injections would kill so many people Ethical Skeptic shows the 9-sigma event in cancer deaths since the injection were forced on people … 99.99999% certain to match the data. He says this is a pull-forward effect beginning in mid-November, 2021 … meaning, in my mind, the injections.  Nonprofit Watchdog Uncovers $350 Million in Secret Payments to Fauci, Collins, Others at NIH I deeply apologize for saying the culture of death would go far beyond terminally ill people Canadian Govt. to Pay for Euthanizing Those ‘Too Poor to Live With Dignity' [AUDIO] -  Author Charles Camosy criticizes Canada's euthanasia laws which allow for euthanizing people if they are "too poor to continue living with dignity": "Canada's policies are seen for what they are." I am sorry for stating recently that there must be far more behind Ukraine than what the government is telling us [AUDIO] - Pentagon spokesman Kirby openly admitted that the West has been preparing and supplying the Ukrainian army for combat operations for eight years. I want to ask your pardon for telling your D.C. is a filthy swamp of corruption [AUDIO] - Psaki: “People always ask me … about whether Washington is rotten, whether everybody is corrupt here … and I having done this job believe the absolute opposite is true.” House of Representatives to give staff free Peloton memberships, costing taxpayers; The benefit is being offered to Capitol Police officers and House staff “A source familiar with the matter told FOX Business that the contract cost is a $10,000 upfront payment to Peloton, plus an extra $10 per month charge for each staffer or officer that utilizes the benefit. If 12,000 staffers took advantage of the benefit, it would cost taxpayers $120,000 a month” THE LISTENERS: Dan Todd, thank you for what you are doing. For bringing God to the center. I started listening to you on the radio shortly before you left the airwaves. I could feel that there was so much more you wanted to say. And now you are. I lost my job because I wouldn't get the shot. I lost the big salary and all the stock and I was afraid of what was next. I've been laid off before and didn't know that I would find work anytime soon. Inpite of my fear I was blessed to be given a job immediately after my job was terminated. I lost a third of my income but by the grace of God, through things that I cannot legally talk about, I was able to retain my home and take care of my family. And I carry on. I work in the biotech industry and have for most of my career. Over twenty years now. It feels like I'm in the belly of the beast. I have been censored on social media by multiple employers because of my truth speaking about the Rona. I have let them win on that so that I may retain an income. I'm not sure how I feel about that. This is much more than I intended to say. Mostly I am writing to say that I was doing my reading tonight which was psalm 59 and I thought that this would be a great prayer for all of us that see God's truth in this unsettling time that He has put us in. Specifically verses 3,4 For look, they lie in wait for my life; The mighty gather against me, not for my transgression nor for my sin, O Lord. They run and prepare themselves through no fault of mine This was written by David when Saul was seeking to kill him. We are in a time where whether literally or figuratively the enemy is trying to kill us. As you know, our almighty God prevails, but not without our suffering. So then, what do we do with that. 1 Peter 4:19 So then, those who suffer according to God's will should commit themselves to their faithful creator and continue to do good. Thank you for your faithfulness to our faithful creator. May God continue to bless your good work, and continue to work on your heart that you may bear the fruit that He desires from you. And I pray the same for myself. Amen Dan ---   ---   ---   Hello Todd just wanted to finally write you a quick note. I just received my shipment of Bone Frog coffee and love it. Also just to let you know that I found you through the Rush Limbaugh show as so many others have. Thank you for doing what you do God bless you and your family.

THE THESIS: We can say “gun violence” all day long and it will never become true. These mass killings are done by young people with broken brains and The Party is actively breaking more brains; the alleged Buffalo murderer appears completely insane and he has used race--and his love of “left-wing authoritarianism” to give false meaning to his rage. Every weekend in cities like Milwaukee and Chicago there far too many murders; that sort of crime is carried out by young people whom have also had their brains broken, again by The Party. They may not be mentally ill in this classic sense, but they have been driven crazy by the destruction of the family unit, by constantly being told they cannot achieve anything because white people stole it all. This is the world created by god-men, a world that has turned its face away from The Lord.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Luke 12:6-8 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. 7 Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. 8 “I tell you, whoever publicly acknowledges me before others, the Son of Man will also acknowledge before the angels of God. THE NEWS & COMMENT: BLOCK 1 Biden headed to Buffalo on Tuesday following massacre I can't figure out why the MSM is giving the Buffalo shooting 1,000x. more coverage than the Waukesha Christmas massacre???? Exclusive: Fauci Says Black America Not Safe From Covid-19 Yet; As 1 million deaths approach, Fauci voices pandemic warnings … The Root. "Silence The Voices Of Hatred": NY Governor Hochul Uses Buffalo Massacre To Renew Calls For Censorship Of Social Media Shooter Declared Love For Rachel Maddow's Show In Letters To Editor . . . so? BLOCK 2 The Demented - and Selective - Game of Instantly Blaming Political Opponents For Mass Shootings; All ideologies spawn psychopaths who kill innocents in its name. Yet only some are blamed for their violent adherents: by opportunists cravenly exploiting corpses while they still lie on the ground. "Jacob Blake has dropped his federal civil rights lawsuit against the Wisconsin police officer who shot him..." "[A]ttorneys... agreed to dismiss the case with prejudice, which means Blake can't refile it." No word if settlement was involved. BLOCK 3 Jennifer Sey: "We don't need to exhaust ourselves searching for perfect solutions to address all these challenges associated with the 2nd & 3rd order consequences of school closure.” - Really?

To be saved, to know you're saved and to know that you can not become unsaved: That's the question we're dealing with today. The frantic fear that one may lose their salvation can become destructive in your walk with the Lord. On the flipside, there are people who boast in their salvation while living in flagrant sin. The guys discuss the controversial phrase “Once saved, always saved.” This can serve as comfort for those who are working out their salvation to know that once they are saved and God begins good work in them, he is faithful to carry it out. However, this does not mean that God's grace allows us to do whatever we want and live an unrighteous life. Salvation is not a one and done thing, but rather the entrance into a transformative and eternal relationship with God.  This is not to say that a Christian can't struggle or fall into sin. However, a true, regenerate, born again believer who has been sealed by the Holy Christ will always return to God. When you become a Christian, you love righteousness and thirst off of it. You also have the fruit of praise and of thanksgiving, and the praise of God comes naturally from your humble heart. Hebrews 10:26 speaks to the Christian, “For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful expectation of judgment.” We are all born compulsive sinners until the day we die, but it's the person who sins wilfully, joyfully and pridefully who should be concerned for their salvation. There should be no sense of security for anyone living in sin.          For a Christain to lose his salvation, God would have to go back on His word and undeclare what He previously declared. Though we should feel convicted by our sins which we will be corrected for, we will never be condemned for them. Jesus was punished so that we will never be punished.  We must not forget that everything comes back to the Scripture. Furthermore, it is the unity and community of our church we come to know by being an active participant which God intends us to affirm our faith. What a joy it is to have security in Christ! Let us remember that our hope for salvation is in Christ. We have been sealed with the seal of the Holy Spirit of promise who is the guarantee of our inheritance.  Links:Visit the Living Waters website to learn more and to access helpful resources!You can connect with us at podcast@livingwaters.com.

Sermon Overview Scripture Passage: Proverbs 1:20 Adrian Rogers says, “The voice of wisdom is the voice of God; when wisdom speaks, God speaks.” Wisdom is perhaps the most important virtue, and there is a deadline to obtain it. One of these days, God will issue His final call for wisdom, as seen in Proverbs 1:20-33. This passage reveals the invitation of wisdom. “Wisdom calls aloud outside; she raises her voice in the open squares… ‘How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? For scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge…'” (Proverbs 1:20-22). The call to wisdom is a public invitation available to anyone who would seek it. It is a pressing matter, yet it is also a patient invitation; though many will continue in their folly, Wisdom continues to call people unto herself. This passage explains the indoctrination of wisdom. “Turn at my rebuke; surely I will pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you'” (Proverbs 1:23). We can diligently memorize the facts, dates, and events in Scripture, but we'll never understand its wisdom until we repent of our folly. Adrian Rogers says, “The only way you're going to know the truth of God's Word is for the Holy Spirit to turn the light on in your sin-darkened soul.” Once a sinner repents, the Spirit will reveal the wisdom of Scripture and affirm its reliability in his heart. Finally, this passage conveys the indignation of wisdom. “They would have none of my counsel and despised my every rebuke. Therefore they shall eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled to the full with their own fancies” (Proverbs 1:30-31). When the call to wisdom is rejected time and time again, the invitation will eventually turn to indignation. This derision will lead to desolation; no longer will God's voice be heard, no longer will His hand be outstretched. This will lead to sure destruction. There is coming a time when lost sinners will stand before the judgment of God, asking for mercy. Today is the day of mercy; wisdom stretches her hands, lifts up her voice, offers herself to us. May we repent of our foolish ways before it is too late. Apply it to your life Have you accepted the invitation of wisdom? Today is the day to repent of your ways and be filled with the Spirit of God.

In this season of Easter, Benson & Sean are jumping back into the Old Testament to explore the story of Joshua. A leader who served under Moses and then was handed the leadership, Joshua is perhaps one of the most overlooked heroes of Scripture. And he accomplished much of what he did by keeping it incredibly simple. How did he do that? What lessons can we learn from his leadership? Join us for this series as we explore that and more.

THE THESIS: There is a big divide occurring in the ranks of what we used to call Republicans. It's not just conservatives against the Shiney Shoes, it's the aware vs. the aloof; the physicals vs. the virtuals and Jesus-needers vs. God-talkers.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Isaiah 13:11 I will punish the world for its evil,     the wicked for their sins.

Many Christians vacation in God's love, but they don't live there. Religion will tell you that when you mess up, God folds His arms and takes away His joy from you. That just isn't true! Andrew will show you four keys to staying full of God and living in the truth of His unconditional love.

The Bible doesn't suggest that we rejoice in the Lord; it commands us to. We can rejoice regardless of the situation we are in, or else the Bible wouldn't command it. Find out how with Andrew Wommack!

A melodic line is a succession of notes forming a distinctive sequence. While there are a lot of different notes and sounds that make up a song, the melody is described as a “distinctive sequence.” You can hear it and recognize it above all the other notes. One could say the melody is the THEME of a song. So is there a melodic line in Scripture? Yes! Jesus is the “melodic line.” Jesus is that central theme. All of it points us back to Jesus. In this episode, we are digging into how Scripture clearly predicts, prepares for, reflects or results from the person and work of Jesus.
