Orange Moon Tuesday, May 19, 2026 "Questions To Ponder"

The Special of the Day… From the Orange Moon Cafe…



    “Questions To Ponder”       

     


     When reading any passage of the Bible, we do well to keep certain primary questions in mind.


    “Who is God?” (John 17:3).  


     “What has He done, what is He doing, and what will He do in accordance with “the eternal purpose which He purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord?” (Ephesians 3:11).  


    “How does this purpose relate to humanity?  To the people in my sphere of influence?  To myself? “ (Acts 17:28).


    “How do I respond to God’s purpose and working by faith?  What promises and assurances do I find in this passage that leads me to realize, “Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God?” (Romans 10:17). 


    “What commands apply to my life in this present time and hour as I seek to “do the will of God from the heart?” (Ephesians 6:6).


   “Are there promises I have disbelieved and commands I have disobeyed for which I need to repent and trust God for His forgiveness and cleansing?” (I John 1:9).


   “What new insights teach me?  What encouragements strengthen me?  What admonitions and warnings challenge me? (Psalm 25:5; 119:28; II Timothy 316).


    “What praises and thanksgivings arise in realization of God’s goodness, greatness, and His personal blessing of my life and the lives of others?” (Hebrews 13:15; I Thessalonians 5:18).


   “What Scriptural light illuminates my interpretation of past events, presence occurrences, and future possibilities?” (Hebrews 13:8).


    Most importantly, “How can I better know the love of God, and respond in growing love for Him and others?” (I John 4:19; I Thessalonians 3:12).


    These, and other questions kept in heart and mind, prepare us to discover the glory that awaits us in the Scriptures that bear witness to the Savior and His personal and pointed involvement in all things.


“Order my steps in Thy Word.”

(Psalm 119:133)
