Richard Adair's - Bible Study Lessons

This is so simple. The more scripture you know the less stress you have in your world. This simple book of Hebrews will convince you that your sins are not something we beat ourselves over but rather something our wonderful High Priest Jesus takes care of daily for us. Look for the verses indicating we should panic about our sins in this book. There aren't any! The verses that reference fear of sinning are only related to giving up Jesus and that is something we are NOT going to do. How little we trust in Jesus being our High Priest. It's as though we are so scared of Him we dare not pray. That should make you suspicious as to why you Feel so insecure. That's just the way the devil wants you to feel. Condemned! If you felt happy then you'd be getting on his nerves. That's exactly how Jesus wants you to feel to counter the attacks of the devil. We have got to start believing God is on our side even when we make mistakes. To believe anything different is to miss the basic fundame

This could not be more simple. The Lord made this so easy. We have gotten to the point that we don't believe it anymore that's simply reading our Bible will create the miracle we need and more. The simple truth is taking time to read the Bible is taking time to learn about Jesus. I heard my grandparents say over and over those who come around get the blessings meaning if we didn't visit we would not get any good things from them. All the same with the Bible. They say the Bible is still the number one best seller but if you're like me you have to work real hard to find time to read it. It is incredible how busy we are that we can't take time to read the Bible. Have you ever noticed at times when you read your Bible your problems seem to vanish. That is no accident it is by design. If we would but keep it up we would stay out of every problem that came on our way.

The Name of Jesus is one of the many gifts given to us in the Bible. Unbelief steals away our attempts to believe this until at last we recognize the simple fact that the Name of Jesus was given for us to use against life's problems! If we would only but remember the story of David and Goliath we would remember it was about the Power in the Name of Jesus! One only needs to "taste and see" how the Name of Jesus will help you in your life. No matter what problem you face or pain in your body begin to use the Name of Jesus against it and watch what happens to the problem. David was a very young boy and he knew the Name would protect him. No one could ever talk him out of it after he killed a Lion and then a Bear with just the power of that Name! Stop trying to reason it out and just quietly as a child immitate those in the Bible and you'll soon have reason to rejoice!

It doesn't get anymore evident than this. God wants you protected at all times! He doesn't want any harm coming to you. There's not even any secret solution either. This is cut and dry as we say. Just simply believe what Psalms 91 says about your Lord! It has to be for you because its in your Bible. If this is not for you, then why is it even in your Bible. Reason yourself into believing this instead of trying to find reasons why this is not for you today. It is for you today. It would have been ridiculous for us to believe it was even good for 1 person or 1 particular time of history and NOT for you and I today! As wonderful as it may sound it is actually the truth and it will work for you. In a moment you will have heard it from start to finish and every bit of it is yours today.

Forgiveness is something we do on our end. Usually we are good at determining when other people need to forgive instead of focusing on our own selves and forgiving. Certainly there are challenging situations where this may seem to be difficult, but start where you are and work your way up. Recognize that the Lord forgives you for every thing and so you focus on doing the same with the little things that annoy you when you are around others. Once you recognize this is a very important action you need to take you'll begin to see how it works with your Heavenly Father forgiving you. Quit making such a big deal out of things in your life that you seemingly think God will not forgive or perhaps you believe He will forgive, but He won't forget. Truth is, He actually does both Forgives and Forgets. This is a day to day lifestyle. Don't try to drag up old relationships that you feel you have to deal with first. Let them be for they are probably in the "Too Hard To Do Category" right

This could not be easier. The Lord didn't make this hard.

Sometimes we just feel Life is just going to RULE over us and there's nothing we can do. Thats easy to believe when you have never read the Bible. I'm so amazed at how many times I hear people say they believe in Jesus and the Bible but they believe they are powerless when it comes to Life's Problems. This makes my job as a preacher so easy. Come now! Take time to start reading your Bible. See if people in the Bible acted like THEIR FAITH mattered or not! Beware! Don't ever read Hebrews chapter 11 if you are so convinced YOUR FAITH doesn't matter! HA! HA! Yes, Dear Friend, your FAITH does matter. It is insulting to a friend if you have NO FAITH in them and also to you children and of course visa versa. Why would it not be important for me to have FAITH in God? Many Americans only feel that "Believing There Is A God" is all that's necessary, but oh how limited that makes you in comparison to the people and stories in the Bible. No wonder we worry so much.

We worry so much about being good enough for Heaven. Will i make it? Sometimes we jokingly just assume we are going to Hell because we know ourselves so well and feel we are NOT perfect. These are actually good thoughts to have because it makes us think. What actually is the answer? Well, the Bible tells us. There's no way on earth we are going to Heaven without HELP. Certainly we've all made mistakes. That's a given. Some people erroneously believe that because of that God will just understand and let us all into Heaven and keep things moving along as they are. Trouble is Jesus died for a reason. It was not to create a New Religion. He also left before He could "show off" to all the world about this Great New Religion He invented. No, that was not His purpose. Man because of our own wrong doings could never be good enough to get into Heaven but someone made a way for us to get there. He didn't give us a set of rules but a gift. Its called Righteousness. When you

This is so basic! We are not supposed to be effective witnesses for Jesus is we can't even know for sure if we will even make it to heaven! Stop the bleeding! Read the Bible for your own sanity! The Scriptures will calm you down and you'll KNOW the simplicity of going to Heaven and not Hell!!!! This is one of the most dominating themes throughout the Bible is having a calm assurance that you will be with the Lord FOREVER. Why on earth (literally) did He come to SEEK and SAVE the lost if it was so IMPOSSIBLE? Get rid of your doubts and start being happy again KNOWING "Jesus Saves" and He "SAVES YOU"!!!!!!

There is so much unbelief in our lives today when it comes to our own prayers. We are so confident that God will NOT answer our prayers we get a little arrogant about it. Somehow the idea is we want to argue with God over this when we get to Heaven. Some will even fight you over the right tobelieve that God will NOT answer their prayers. You can't blame them or even yourself IF YOU WON'T READ YOUR BIBLE FOR YOURSELF. It's only natural to believe the worst. Ah! Good news! Take time to study the promises of God yourself and finally figure out all the promises of God are YES AND AMEN!

So many Christians stay so secretly upset over this basic truth. We have all in our minds scared the living daylights out of our selves because we stop reading our Bibles for our selves. Let me ask you. Would you ask someone to go to the doctor for you or would you go yourself? Of course not! You would go yourself. Well go yourself to the Bible and find out if there's a way for you to go to Heaven. Of course there is! See if you can discover for to be sure you can GO! You will find out quickly and become the happiest person you've ever been! If this is not true then it should NOT be called THE GOSPEL meaning "Good News". It is GOOD NEWS and youre going to Heaven because of Jesus!
