From Birth We Are Sinners

Psalms 58 and Isaiah 48:8 talk about our rebel birth, and it is such a shameful truth. We are born sinners, that is not a new fact to our Heavenly father. I read in Matthew Henry Commentary and it summed us up by saying, " They go astray from God and their duty as soon as they are born, (that is, as soon as possibly they can); the foolishness that is bound up in their hearts appears with the first operations of reason; as the wheat springs up, the tares spring up with it."
Its amazing how we began to go about our selfish, lustful, and decietful ways even at the age when we first learn to reason. What do we have to gain from rebelling from God? Nothing, but we do it anyway

thoughts on scripture

Look, the one whose desires are not upright will faint from exhaustion,  but the person of integrity will live because of his faithfulness "Habbakuk"

Sunday Message From Pastor Molden

Notes from pastor molden

The second year, the Lord spoke this message through the prophet Haggai to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak: The Indifference of the People The Lord who rules over all says this: “These people have said, ‘The time for rebuilding the Lord’s temple has not yet come.’” So the Lord spoke through the prophet Haggai as follows “Is it right for you to live in richly paneled houses while my temple is in ruins? Here then is what the Lord who rules over all says: ‘Think carefully about what you are doing. You have planted much, but have harvested little. You eat, but are never filled. You drink, but are still thirsty. You put on clothes, but are not warm. Those who earn wages end up with holes in their money bags.’” The Instruction of the People “Moreover, the Lord who rules over all says: ‘Pay close attention to these things also.

Scripture reading from haggai:

•God desires and commands that he comes first

•God will not take second seat
•No other God before me

•#1 God should b in each of our lives

•where a man's treasure is, his heart will be also

•How can we not take time to bow before the king of glory?

•where each of us r today is because the favor of God is on us

•God gave material blessings to those that put him first

•the only way we fully enjoy the fulness of spiritual blessing is putting God first.
