The Bible has a wonderful verse that says,“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him” (James 1:5). The Bible word “upbraid” means “to scold; reproach; reprimand; rebuke.”  That word is from the King James Version of the Bible, which was translated in the year 1611.

When Jesus started His public ministry, two of John the Baptist’s disciples left John and started following Jesus.

It’s wonderful that the Bible contains so many verses that assure us that God does not change. Malachi 3:6 says, “I am the Lord, I change not.”  Hebrews 13:8 tells us, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”

Many a time I’ve come to God and prayed a similar prayer, telling Him I don’t know how to express my thoughts and feelings.

Some days, I am content with the changes that aging brings. Other days I complain and resist.

Do you ever have trouble being patience with God? You’ve been praying for a certain situation for quite a long time, and nothing has changed.

F.B. Meyer was an evangelist and crusader against sin who was born in England in the mid-1800s. Meyer taught that only the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives can keep us from sinning.

Moses, leader of the Israelites on their trek from Egypt to the Promised Land, had a rod or staff that God used to accomplish miracles, such as parting the waters of the Red Sea. Or at God’s command, striking a rock, and water poured out for the people to drink.
