Empower Bible reading by asking the author for help

Skilled Workman Posted on April 2, 2020 by David BergslandApril 2, 2020

Empower Bible reading with the help of the author. There is a major difference between reading the Bible and asking the Lord to show you what He wants you to learn today. The Bible amazes me. But, an author guided read transforms my life—every day. The author of the book matters much more than the book itself Fortunately, the Bible’s author lives within you. If you haven’t tried it yet, ask the Holy Spirit [or Jesus] to … Continue reading →

Peace relax mitigations working better than 1918

Skilled Workman Posted on April 1, 2020 by David BergslandApril 1, 2020

Peace relax mitigations working better than 1918. I received a post from Grady’s Fire in my bones blog today. As you can see from the graphic he used, to the left, we tried many of the same things in 1918. I know it’s different times—no air travel then, we had no antibiotics to use until WWII, no anti-virals, and many more things. BUT, with 103,000,000 people in that day and 675,000 killed, that’s .5% killed. If we have … Continue reading →

Offering free bible studies of the epistles

Skilled Workman Posted on March 31, 2020 by David BergslandMarch 31, 2020

Offering free bible studies of the epistles which are now available for you—as we shelter in place under government orders. My prayer is that they will bless you and give you hope. I’ve always taught scripture verse-by-verse, since 1974. My students have found that it really helps to go over everything in context. I’ve advertised them as bible study free for alls. Everyone is encouraged to bring their own version. The room used provides copies of bibles in … Continue reading →

The distraction of COVID-19 fear is foolishness

Skilled Workman Posted on March 29, 2020 by David BergslandMarch 29, 2020

The distraction of COVID-19 fear is foolishness. I’m not saying that the virus is not dangerous. You should be following the CDC guidelines. But the fear is foolishness. Life in the flesh is a terminal condition. Your flesh is going to die. There have only been two men in history whose flesh did not die: Enoch and Ezekiel. This is nothing new and the death of your flesh is no big deal. Unless, of course, you have … Continue reading →

Knowing Jesus personally in daily living

Skilled Workman Posted on March 24, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 16, 2020

Knowing Jesus personally in daily living is required to get into the Kingdom of God. That’s easy to prove Biblically. It’s hard to find in the church today. It’s not that pastors and teachers are against the idea. It’s simply not taught because it’s so basic. OR, it’s so personal that they’re embarrassed to share in public. But it’s so pervasive that you really can’t go to any church today and ask, “What’s the Lord done in … Continue reading →

Personal intimacy with Yeshua changes everything

Skilled Workman Posted on March 5, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 16, 2020

For me, the most important thing I’ve ever learned is that personal intimacy with Yeshua changes everything. Currently, most of the church ignores this simple fact. To my horror, even churches preaching the gospel about the blood and the cross, focusing on new converts and leading them to the Lord, often don’t mention this from the pulpit. All of their services are evangelistic. As far as I can tell, the pastors and teachers who know this don’t … Continue reading →

Finding sin freedom is rarely taught

Skilled Workman Posted on February 3, 2020 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

Finding sin freedom is rarely taught, and teaching about this is getting more scarce. Actually, the bondage of sin is rarely mentioned. So, no one knows that freedom from sin is even possible. Few know before they meet Jesus that this issue even exists. “Do you not know that we who were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him by baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised … Continue reading →

Our Lord delights in the little things

Skilled Workman Posted on September 22, 2019 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

One of my major joys comes from the fact that our Lord delights in the little things. My wife and I are both creative artists in many fields. One of the reasons the Lord brought us together is to be able to support each other in our creative endeavors. I’ve written several times about that unique way we are made in His image—our creativity. After all, He created it all from nothing, and John 1 makes it … Continue reading →

By retaining comprehensive Godly focus we’re fruitful

Skilled Workman Posted on September 8, 2019 by David BergslandSeptember 8, 2019

Because His imminent return grows closer, retaining comprehensive Godly focus becomes even more important. In our Western civilization, the pressures to lose our sense of reality have become nearly overwhelming. You need to work on that. After 45+ years of walking with Jesus, I still need to work on it often. Reality?! What’s that? Here I may lose several of you. If you have not realized yet that scripture is literally true, you need to talk with … Continue reading →

Impatience guilt during transition can be tough

Skilled Workman Posted on September 6, 2018 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

I’m reminded again that impatience guilt during transition can be tough. As mentioned, we have just made a huge move, to a brand new town [for us]. Due to many reasons, getting the house set up into a home this time takes far too long. So, I sit here—with a little time to relax and reflect—getting anxious because nothing seems to be happening. Actually, throughout the move, the Lord has been making His presence wonderfully known. We’ve … Continue reading →
