Read More5 Things That Lead to Rebellion
Rebellion is the act of resisting authority. It is defiance, open resistance and bold disobedience. And those who rebel against God – cannot win. We see through out scripture, stories of those who rebelled – starting with Satan himself. Ezekiel 28 tells us that Satan was a beautiful angel but his heart grew proud because of his beauty. You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering, sardius, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, emerald, and carbuncle; and crafted in gold were your settings and your engravings. On the day that you were created they were […]

Read MoreOne Thing All Old Testament Families Have In Common- Dysfunction
Dysfunction is when a family malfunctions. It is caused by sin. We all have a little dysfunction in our families because we are all sinners – just some have a little and some have lot. One thing all Old Testament families have in common – dysfunction. Don’t believe me? Just look at Adam and Eve – they got kicked out of the house (well the garden) and then their son Cain killed Abel. So if your kids bicker and fight – be encouraged. Since the beginning of time, families have struggled with this. That does not make it okay. But […]

Read More4 Godly Character Qualities of David – A Man After God’s Own Heart
King David is probably most known for defeating the giant Goliath. His courage and trust in God, as a young shepherd boy, prepared him to be the King of Israel. In 2 Samuel chapter 9, we see the tender, gentle and compassionate side of this warrior and king. As we look at the 4 Character Qualities of David – we will see that these qualities are a reflection of the King of Kings – Jesus. This chapter opens up with David asking if there are any relatives from the house of Saul alive that he can bless. Remember, that typically, […]

Read MoreWhen It Feels Like God Has Forgotten You
Are you in a season of waiting? Maybe you are waiting on a prayer to be answered, a baby to be conceived, a problem to be resolved, a chance to be promoted, a debt to be paid off or a prodigal to come home. I don’t know what you are waiting for – but this I know – during your season of waiting… God has not forgotten you. David was anointed King around the age of 15 but he did not take the throne until he was 30! And during that waiting period David faced a lot of hardship. I’m […]

Read MoreGMG Resources for the Book of 2 Samuel
Our next Bible study begins on Monday, April 2nd in the Book of 2 Samuel! In 1 Samuel we saw David as the people’s choice but in 2 Samuel we will see him as God’s choice. It displays the heart of David –both the good and the bad as a father and king, while also displaying God’s grace and judgment. We are all capable of falling into many sins. Even when we have a heart hot for Jesus, we are susceptible to temptation. David’s example of giving into temptation is a warning to all of us. We must be on guard and never think […]
Read MoreIntroducing GMG’s Spring Bible Study!
In case you missed the first announcement, the schedule for the Good Morning Girls in 2018 is a bit different than previous years. Instead of doing 7-9 Bible Studies within a years time frame, there will be four: One in the winter (Romans is complete), one this Spring (2 Samuel), one in the summer (to be announced) and one this fall (I am currently writing an in-depth Bible study similar to the Ecclesiastes Bible Study for this fall). During the breaks, I’ll be here blogging but I won’t be leading a formal Bible Study. I’ll be working my way through the […]
