1 JOHN 5:13-15 – My purpose in writing is simply this: that you who believe in God’s Son will know beyond the shadow of a doubt that you have eternal life, the reality and not the illusion. And how bold and free we then become in his presence, freely asking according to his will, sure that he’s listening. And if  we’re confident that he’s listening, we know that what we’ve asked for is as good as ours. 

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

² When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

³ Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

John 1:1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Today, in the high schools and colleges, the students are taught the investigative approach in the physical  sciences. They  are taught not to accept without evidence any ideas or one needs to examine the evidences to see, “Is there really a God?”

EXODUS 34:14 NLT – You must worship no other gods, for the LORD, whose very name is Jealous, is a God who is jealous about his relationship with you. 

1. Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without money and without price.
2. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which
3. satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

In my experience most people are uncomfortable with change. How many of us have a pew we sit in almost every Sunday morning? Most of us have favorite songs we want to sing over and over again in our worship assemblies. Like many people, you might have a favorite preacher or passage you want to hear. We all seem to be creatures of habit.
