Practical reflections on following Jesus in everyday choices, work, and relationships.
Used of God to bring about the “Great Awakening” in America. Known for the sermon “Sinners in the Hands of An Angry God”. Considered by many to be the “Father of the Evangelical Church”. My question as I read this is…if…
It is a great duty of husbands and wives to live in quietness and peace, and avoid all occasions of wrath and discord. Because this is a duty of so great importance, I shall first open to you the great necessity of it,…
With God there are no conditions for salvation—“whosoever will;” but there are many conditions for power in service. One of these conditions is that we must not only lay aside every “sin”, but every “weight”—be pure,…
“…Yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And did not he make one?” (Mal. 2:14-15). Divorce…the very word brings such pain, such heartache, such contention. It not only divides families, it splits…
The evil of yesterday is gone, that which is appointed for tomorrow is not yet arrived. Would it not be well if we could live with the Lord by the day? This reminds me of a fable. A father asked a young child to carry a…
“I, even I only, am left a prophet of the Lord.” 1 Kings 18:22 “I, even I only, am left.” 1 Kings 19:10,14 “Yet will I leave me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal.” 1 Kings 19:18 “Then…
Wearied by the continual battles with the Philistine armies, exasperated by the heat of the harvest-time sun, David’s army waited in the caves outside Bethlehem, observing the Philistine army down below them. David,…
There is a beautiful legend told about a little boy who was the first-born of a family in Egypt, when the destroying angel swept through that land, and consequently who would have been a victim on that night if the…
Little Johnny and his sister were one day going through a long, narrow tunnel. The railroad company had built small clefts here and there through the tunnel, so that if any one got caught in the tunnel when the train was…
Greetings to all in the name of Jesus! It is with great excitement that we present this special edition of The Heartbeat of the Remnant. When I first set out to gather the articles that I felt absolutely had to be…
Where there is no vision, the people perish, but he that keepeth the Law, happy is he. Proverbs 29:18 There was, in the days of Samuel the Prophet, a sad state of affairs in Israel. The ministers of the day had lost…
When the babies are out of diapers... When I can get a full night of sleep... When the children are old enough to help... When homeschooling is finished... When the teenagers are grown up... When the children are…
Lamenting over the chains of our carnal nature and the shackles of our feeble efforts, the apostle Paul cries out in Romans 7:24, “O wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from this body of death?” If Paul were to…
Occasionally my husband and I, others at our church, or the tape ministry will receive letters asking us how we prepare our born-again young ladies for their futures. These letters are often asking if we send our girls…
What is it? Gambling? Liquor? White-collar crime? Sexual immorality? No. It is the use of television. What began as a scientific breakthrough in the late 40’s with the promise of much good for mankind, has now been used…
The nineteenth century witnessed the greatest advance the Christian church had ever known. Missions, education and evangelism flourished and prospered. Great names emerged: Livingstone, Spurgeon, Booth, Finney, and…
Sovereignty—providence—election—predestination. If you are like me, you have at times felt reluctant to use such terms. Maybe you have even grimaced a time or two to hear others use them. Yet, these are beautiful…
I want to show you clearly, from the word of God, that “tribulation worketh.” Tribulation has its place in your life today. As long as you are clothed in your body of flesh, it will be a part of your life. It is not…
Who can estimate the force of a righteous life? Men have little faith in such a force, we know, but it is a force, nevertheless. Men say that meekness is weakness, strict conscientiousness is childishness, and that the…
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Eph 2:8-9 To many of us, this is a favorite verse, and rightly so. Above all people of…
