Daily Nugget: Reading through the Gospels one can quickly see a pattern of behavior against Jesus. One can see in most chapters that the unrighteous “religious” consistently hated Him. They were always looking for some fault to convict him of some trumped-up charge. Their hearing Jesus speak and witnessing His miracles only angered them more, [...]
John 4
Daily Nugget: In this chapter we see Jesus getting much encouragement and strength (vss. 32 & 34) from doing what God desires all of us to do. He had just had the opportunity to speak to a Samaritan woman about spiritual things. He introduced her to the Messiah. We all would be likewise blessed if [...]
Luke 10
Daily Nugget: If Jesus asked you to pray for something specific, would you? Here in Luke 10 we see that Jesus has done that very thing. He has made a prayer request, and it is important. Jesus prefaced His request with some information that was related to, “The harvest truly is great.” He has great [...]
Revelation 7
Daily Nugget: After the sixth seal is opened, there will be a brief respite, a parenthesis if you will, before the seventh seal is broken. During this time the winds throughout the earth will be held back from blowing (vs. 1). Before more cataclysms occur, an angel warns (vs. 2) that one more task must [...]
Titus 3
Daily Nugget: In advising Titus what he should preach, Paul defined how a Christian’s new character should be. A Christian should strive to not talk negatively about anyone, not fight with others, be gentle, and be meek (vs. 2). Sometimes people that have been saved for a while agree that the Lord has changed them, [...]
Acts 24
Daily Nugget: Paul was taken to be judged before the Roman procurator, Felix. False accusations were flowing against the preacher from envious, bitter Jewish leaders that resented Christianity. The Roman judge heard from the accusers. Felix, however, was not ignorant of who Christians were (Acts 24:24), and what they were teaching. Perhaps, he had heard [...]
Acts 8
Daily Nugget: Philip was given a command by an angel to go south (vs. 26). Without receiving any other details, the man of God obediently went. After thirty miles or so, he encountered a lone chariot riding in the desert. As he got closer, he saw it was an African man being chauffeured in a [...]
Acts 7
Daily Nugget: Continuing from the previous chapter, Stephen is being persecuted by religious Jews and their leaders. He turned their time of questioning him into an opportunity to preach to them. He started out by preaching a condensed history of the Jews. I am sure all that were listening were agreeing with him as Stephen [...]
Acts 4
Daily Nugget: One of the blessings of reading the Bible is learning how biblical characters solved problems, got through hardships, and lived a godly life. Peter is one of those personalities that can be a good Christian example to pattern ourselves after. After Jesus left to return to His heavenly home, Peter, although certainly sad [...]
