It is a joy to study God’s Word and a privilege to share it with others. More and more people are joining our daily Enjoying The Journey episodes and we are grateful for the Lord’s blessing. Nothing brings joy like meditating on the very words of the living God! “I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil” (Psalm 119:162).

We have just completed a brief study of the book of Hosea. I am continually amazed how a message given to another people thousands of years ago speaks to our spiritual need today! You may listen to these and all of our archived studies at http://podcast.scottpauley.org.

On Monday we begin a new series that I am praying will increase the faith and courage of God’s people. God declared in Hosea 4:6, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…” Biblical illiteracy is rampant in our world, and too often is evident in churches.

Do you know what you believe and why you believe it? Are you ready to answer questions about God and truth? Will your children and grandchildren be taught what is right? We need eternal truth in a changing world.d

This longer series, What The Bible Says…, will address the foundation of our faith. It is impossible to be exhaustive on any area of Bible doctrine in our brief episodes. Each study is designed to give a summary of “What The Bible Says” about a major theme of Scripture and then make an application to our lives.

I am convinced that belief determines behavior. True biblical interpretation always leads to application. It was said of a faithful preacher of another generation, “His doctrine is all application and his application is all doctrine.” That is what we need!

Don’t miss this new study. You can subscribe to Enjoying The Journey on your favorite podcast player or listen at https://enjoyingthejourney.org/broadcast/. Thanks for journeying through the Word of God with us. May the Holy Spirit lead us all into a greater understanding of our great God.

Now, I am no engineer! But the principle applies to us all: The easiest thing in the world is to have a complicated life. The hardest thing in the world is to have a simple life. You have to work hard to keep it simple.

You Have to Work Hard to Keep it Simple

The idea of building a monument was not that of Joshua, but of God. God instructed Joshua to have twelve men remove a stone from a prescribed place, place it on their shoulders and bear it up out of Jordan. It was to be taken to their place of lodging. What purpose could possibly be served in carrying twelve large river rocks approximately six or seven miles to Gilgal? God said to! In Joshua, we find that God is a monument builder. 

The Monument Builder

In the Second Boer War in South Africa, 13,000 British troops were trapped for 118 days in what is now known as the Siege of Ladysmith. Food diminished, and disease grew. Worst of all, discouragement set in. A civilian was arrested, tried, and sentenced to a year in jail for being a discourager! This man was not a traitor, but he walked around town and spoke discouraging things to men who were on guard against the enemy. The deepest wound you can inflict is to wound a person’s spirit (Proverbs 18:14). Image of the relief of the siege

The Power of Encouragement and the Peril of Discouragement 

In 2 Kings 5, we read a tale of three servants: Naaman, the Little Maid, and Gehazi. No matter your past, you can find healing like Naaman. Regardless of your circumstances, like the maid, God can bless and use you for eternity. Even if you have experienced great victory, you can fall into sin, just like Gehazi.
