“Deliver those who are being taken away to death, And those who are staggering to slaughter, Oh hold them back. If you say, ‘See, we did not know this,’ Does He not consider it who weighs the heart? And does He not know it who keeps your soul? And will He not render to man according to his work?” — Proverbs 24:11-12

The supernatural world is very real. In Mark (5:1-20) we get to witness the power and love of Jesus on full display; He seeks out and completely delivers a man bound by a “legion” of demons. We learn from our Lord how to deal with demons and spiritual forces that would seek to destroy us (John 10:10).

Yellowstone is such a beautiful place! Everywhere you look, there is something to discover. From the grand scale of the Teton Mountains to the different animals to smallest of the microorganisms living in the geysers.

After six years of dragging a hose around the yard to water our lawn, my wife and I decided to make our summer project be to install a sprinkler system. We saved up our money and I spent months learning what I needed to know to design and build my own sprinkler system. I bought bits and pieces on classified sites in order to cut the costs. I repeatedly drew my little plot of land with different trench layouts, head types, brands, sizes, etc. I wanted the most consistent and efficient system I could afford.

I have met regularly with different groups of people for over 20 years; I’m very thankful for these “iron sharpening iron” types of relationships. I recently met with some friends and it was similar to so many of the gatherings that I’ve participated in over the years — meeting and talking about our faith in Jesus. We always encourage each other with what God is teaching us. He usually provides a theme, idea or even a struggle that is common to the group. His most recent theme was fear.

“…give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, ‘Who is the Lord?’ Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God.” — Proverbs 30:8b-9
Going through the book of Proverbs in our Get Wisdom series has been a real blessing to me. I was especially encouraged (and challenged) by our recent messages on money (Money Wise and Matter of Honor). If you missed those messages I invite you to watch them this week.

Happy New Year! It always amazes me how quickly one year comes to an end and another one takes its place. It’s a never ending cycle. A few days ago, I was reading in the Bible (the book of Revelation). What really stood out to me was that when Jesus comes to make all things new, it will be the end of the “out with the old and in with the new” mentality we’ve all come to know in this life.
