Good morning. Back to
Corinthians: now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food, will
supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your
righteousness; you will be enriched in everything for all liberality. We don't
even have to supply the seed – He does it! He gives to us so we can give to
others. And the result: they will glorify God for your obedience to your
confession of the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution
to them and to all. For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to
the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely
powerful for the destruction of fortresses. Too many times Christians try to
fight spiritual battles with physical weapons. They try to do it in their own
strength. They try to figure out some way to make it happen. Notice that it
says for attacking fortresses. Have you ever been attacked by a fortress? No.
We are the ones doing the attacking! Father thank You for supplying seed for the
reader to sow. He/she will be enriched in everything. Thank You for supplying a
new car for him/her!

Good morning. While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. Jesus was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men. Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. It doesn’t say, but I assume it is still during this time of the Passover. This man came to Jesus by night. Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do the signs that You do unless God is with him. It just said that the people believed in His name because of the signs He was doing; yet it does not say what those signs were. Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. That is why unbelievers cannot tell what is of the kingdom of God and what is not – they’re not born again. Nicodemus doesn’t have a clue. How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he? Unless one is born of water and the Spirit ...
