TXDOT RUINED PROPERTY. SHOULD THEY PAY?
Discussed by Robert Thomas
with Pacific Legal Foundation (www.PacificLegal.org)

Robert Thomas is the Director of Property Rights Litigation with the Pacific Legal Foundation. Today, he discusses an interesting case from Texas regarding property that was damaged by TxDot. Listen closely because this could happen to you!

Click here to read more about this case.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Are private property rights recognized within the US Constitution?

What is “eminent domain” or “property taking”? Robert reminds us that even if you own your own property, it’s always for sale.

Skunk DeVillier homesteaded a patch of Texas land back in the 1920s. Until TxDot constructed a barrier (which essentially became a dam) had the property ever flooded?

Why is the State of Texas, through TxDot, refusing to pay for damages to the DeVillier property?

What is the current status of this case? Robert discusses all the details – some that might make your head explode with frustration with the government!

GENESIS 4 AND 5: LINEAGE AND GENEALOGY
Discussed by Mark Lanier
with Biblical Literacy (www.Biblical-Literacy.com)

Day 5

Mark Lanier continues his series on the book of Genesis. This week, he looks at the chapters between the Fall and the Flood, focusing much of the lesson each day on the lineage and genealogy of Adam and Eve.

To view Mark Lanier’s video for this lesson, click here.

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

LESSONS LEARNED:

Why did Noah find favor in the LORD?

Why is it important to read this passage (and all Scripture) in context?

Mark shares a fun fact about Noah’s name.

Who was Er? Why was there only one verse written about him? What did he do that resulted in his death?

POINTS FOR HOME:

Be careful with your life. Are you choosing corruption and rebellion? Or are you choosing worship and redemption?

Good leads to good. Bad leads to bad. Remember: There is a limit to your time on earth. Spend it wisely. You cannot walk with evil and expect to have a good relationship with God.

In spite of your genealogy or lineage, God can and will use you for His glory. His purpose will not be thwarted. His promises will not fail.

A PRESCRIPTION CALLED PRAYER
Discussed by Pastor Jarrett Stephens
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)

Pastor Jarrett Stephens completes the sermon series on the book of James this week encouraging us to be bold and faithful in our prayer life.

Scripture Passage: James 5:13-20

If you have questions about a sermon, please contact Champion Forest at questions@cfbc.org


QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

PRAY WITH FAITH: (James 5:15)

Do you have faith when you pray? Or do you pray just to pray? Yes! There is a difference! (James 1:6-8)

Do you believe that God really does want what is best for you – even when/if you get a different answer than you are expecting?

Is there a “formula” for praying and receiving a “yes” answer? HA! NO!

American evangelist, pastor, and educator R.A. Torrey once stated: “Nothing lies beyond the reach of prayer except that which lies outside the will of God.”

PRAY WITH FERVENCY: (James 5:16b-18)

What does “fervently” mean? Why is this so important? Pastor Jarrett urges us to examine our prayer life and if it lacks fervor, change it!

How did the prophet Elijah pray?

Can praying with hope, faith, and fervor really give us encouragement? (Romans 15:4)

FINAL THOUGHTS:

Stand strong in your faith.

Make decision by faith.

Trust God in the face of the impossible.

PRAYER
Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program



Heavenly Father,

In the midst of the hustle and bustle of life today, I acknowledge your sovereignty.

Thank you, Father God, for caring for even me.

With the background of the universe and all that is happening across our land, you focus on me and mine.

You, LORD, hear our individual pleas.

Father, you are not my genie-in-a-bottle.

I simply cry out for your forgiveness.

In fear and awe and reverence, I lift my prayers.

I cry out for guidance and direction and knowledge to walk in your ways.

May I serve you with all my heart, mind, soul, and strength this day.

And if you grant me tomorrow, LORD, let’s repeat walking the path of life hand-in-hand.

Father, you are my GOD.

Jesus, you are my redeemer.

Holy Spirit, live within me.

Accept my humble prayer, uttered through the name of Jesus Christ,

Amen
