Who is the most Godly man in scripture, other than Jesus?

Moses
Now! Today!
Lately I’ve noticed how much time is spent on planning for the next future event. Everyone does it.
On Facebook it looks something like this, “I can hardly wait. Next week I’ll be lying on the beach soaking up the sun.”
Or this one, “I’m not looking forward to next week. I’ll be having tests run.” Continue reading
The Forgiving Husband
It is quite evident that your relationship with God is like the relationship between a married couple – for your Maker is your husband, the LORD of hosts is His name (Isa. 54:5) and husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. Eph 5:25
Just as God has said, “You must not have any other god but me” (Ex 20:3) then you Continue reading
Grace is a gift not a reward!
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. Eph 2:8-9

God says He loves a cheerful giver. 2 Cor 9:7 Continue reading
Keep your eyes on God!
Moses remained there on the mountain with the Lord forty days and forty nights. In all that time he ate no bread and drank no water. And the Lord wrote the terms of the covenant—the Ten Commandments—on the stone tablets. Ex 34:28
It is no wonder that Moses was such an awesome man of God. To fast is one thing but to do it in the presence of God is something else altogether. Continue reading
Don’t shift the blame!
Can sin be blamed on someone else or is it the responsibility of the individual?
The answer is obvious to me; it is an individual. Yet an individual will look for a way to explain it or place the blame elsewhere. Continue reading
War in the camp
Moses had gone up on the mountain and was there for 40 days.
In the meantime, the people at the base of the mountain grew restless. Not willing to wait for him to return with instructions from God, they made their own god out of the gold earrings – a golden calf. Continue reading
