Bondage

The Hebrew people had been slaves in Egypt for 400 years. Egypt had become a great nation: thriving and industrious, with a formidable army and a booming economy.

Trauma

As you know, plants need four things to grow – nutrients, water, air, and sunlight, and without these things, the process of photosynthesis is impossible. Photosynthesis is how a plant draws energy from light and transforms it into chemical energy. This process is invaluable to our way of life as we know it. It is responsible for all of our mineral enriched…

Get Out

Have you ever had a weird dream? I remember mine vividly; I was sitting inside of my house with my family, we were eating dinner and enjoying ourselves, but the problem was that I could clearly see a fire surrounding us and they could not. If any of you have ever tried to run while you are dreaming, then you probably know that it’s like slow motion, and most of…

Held Captive

In ancient times, if a country was conquered the gods of the conquering country were given credit for the victory. Thus, the conquerors would remove all the treasures from the captive kingdom, offer it to their gods, and store it in their treasury. Although Babylon worshiped many gods, the one god who appears to get credit for the victory over Judah was Marduk…

A Bunch Of Bolognas

There is a story that talks about a construction worker who opened his lunch, and after taking his sandwich out of the bag, threw it to the ground, yelling, “Bologna again!

It not only allows you to live the good life, but some studies suggest that the more you have, the…

Transformations

You can do many things with water; you can freeze it, and it becomes ice, it can be mixed with lemons and sugar and become lemon aid, vegetables can be added with seasoning for some soup, and you can add some soap, and it suddenly becomes a great cleanser. Water is an excellent enhancer with the ability to lessen the effects of many things; on its own has some…

Fasting

With all the overindulgence of food these days, fasting is becoming more acceptable to those who would otherwise avoid it due to its health benefits. If you should decide to abstain from food for any length of time, it is best to check with your doctor to make sure that your decision does not lead to other complications. Once your doctor has cleared you, there…

A Humble Man Bread

When Gideon was charged to go up and fight the Midianites, they were a vast number with many chariots, horses, weapons, and strength. So, you can imagine his reservations about going forward with only 300 men because such few men were no match for the thousands of fierce fighters they were about to face. Therefore, God told him to sneak into the enemy’s camp…

A Fruit For Your Root

Most people, when given the opportunity, are good because we want to do the right thing; we want to stand in a crisis, and we want to do things that earn the respect and admiration of others. We want to be healthy, but sometimes it’s hard to have the willpower that is necessary to make real change. We want to have meaningful relationships, but often past…
