Eat, Drink, and be Merry

Yes, it’s a phrase from the Bible. It’s found in Jesus’ “parable of the rich fool,” a cautionary tale about being too attached to one’s possessions. The rich fool said to himself, “You have many goods laid up for many years; take your ease; eat, drink, and be merry.” But then God said to him, “Fool! This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will those things be which you have provided?” (Luke 12:13–21).

This is the first mention of the Cross, although in shadow, after the Fall. The Lord told Satan through the serpent that victory would come by the Seed of the woman. Ironically, woman has no seed, with the exception of One, Who was the Lord Jesus Christ.

Light which Redeems the Soul

The darkness that was here prevalent was taken away only by the Spirit of God, as He moved upon the face of the waters. As someone has well said, The Moving of the Holy Spirit is the first sign of life.

Beginnings are one thing, while endings are another!

Jimmy Swaggart

On this first day of a brand-new year, which is a new beginning of sorts, the Lord offers to every person a brand-new beginning in their life, irrespective as to what the past has been. Millions this year will make New Year’s resolutions, resolutions which invariably will not be kept.

A Place Called Home

Colin S. Smith and Tim Augustyn

The book of genesis is part of the revelation god gave to moses at mount Sinai, so when it says eden was “in the east,” we are talking about a location somewhere east of Sinai.

Chris Tiegreen

One of the primary ways God accomplishes his purposes on earth is through the prayers of his people. And one of our primary motivations for prayer is the desires in our hearts.
