FEBRUARY 12 - START YOUR DAY RIGHT DEVOTION  Romans 14:17-18 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit, because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men. NOT A MATTER OF EATING OR DRINKIN Being overly concerned with trivial matters is to miss the primary purpose of God’s kingdom and the true meaning of Christian living. But notice that the issues addressed in this passage deal mainly with outward or physical issues such as eating or observing certain days. Often, such passages dealing with Christian freedom and liberty (1 Corinthians 8-10) are taken out of context to justify behavior that can bring harm to the mind and spirit. Food goes in and out of the body and has little, if anything, to do with spiritual matters. However, when people try to apply this principle of liberty and non-judgment to morally questionable activities and behaviors that actually do affect the mind and spirit, they are seriously missing the point (Colossians2:20, 23). For example, certain forms of entertainment are often presented as matters of personal choice and conscience and is some cases that may be true. But such activities do not necessarily fit into the same category as those described in these passages. Many types of entertainment contain sexually suggestive images, obscene language, and crude humor, which affect the mind and the spirit. God’s Word addresses these issues in an entirely different fashion than those things that go in and out of the body that do not affect the mind or spirit (Ephesians 5:3-7; Colossians 3:5). Exposing ourselves to these types of entertainment can be destructive spiritually because the images and language go into the mind, corrupt the spirit, and can affect behavior in a negative way. This behavior gives approval to ungodly conduct and can easily mislead others who look to us for an example of acceptable Christian conduct. Again, Paul’s strongest warning is to the person whose faith and conscience allow him or her to take greater liberty in their actions – “Blessed is the man who does not condemn himself be what he approves” (Romans 14:22; 1 Corinthians 8-10), BIBLE STUDY TOOLS I USE:

Book of Micah Bible Study
$14.00
Here at Tailspin Farms Life in Grace Bible Study series we are starting the book of MICAH! The book of MICAH is from the Old Testament. The book of Micah contains many warnings of doom and prophecies of hope. In this study on Micah I hope to provide an overview and lessons we can learn from the book of Micah. The prophet Micah was from the small town of Moresheth Gath in southern Judah, a productive agricultural area about 25 miles southwest of Jerusalem. Like Amos, he came from the rural countryside, probably from a family of humble status. While the prophet Isaiah was in Jerusalem addressing the king and international affairs, Micah was a country prophet who was deeply sensitive to the social issues that affected the small towns and villages throughout Judah. I invite you to go through this Bible Study with me. Thank you, Margarita Book of Nahum Bible Study

The book of Nahum theme is Nineveh’s Approaching Destruction There were two basic purposes for the prophecy Nahum delivered. In this study on Nahum I hope to provide an overview and lessons we can learn from the book of Nahum. This brief prophetic book about Nineveh's coming destruction was written by a prophet whose name means "comfort." I invite you to go through this Bible Study with me.

$14.00
Here at Tailspin Farms Life in Grace Bible Study series we are starting the book of HABAKKUK! NOTE: THIS IS A DIGITAL DOWNLOAD ONLY AND DOES NOT INCLUDE A PHYSICAL COPY OF THE BIBLE STUDY. Habakkuk is a minor prophet, and this book is unique from the other prophets in that instead of the prophet speaking God's Word to the people, it records Habakkuk's personal dialogue with God. When I read this book, about a week ago, I felt that I needed to share HABAKKUK with you. Let's be honest with each other we have all questioned God and perhaps His existence in our life. There is so much evil and injustice that exists in the world, Does God Care? Learn how the storms of life can become opportunities to activate your faith in Habakkuk. I invite you to go through this bible study with me. Thank You, Margaret Book of Zephaniah Bible Study
$14.00
Here at Tailspin Farms Life in Grace Bible Study series we are starting the book of ZEPHANIAH! The book of ZEPHANIAH is from the Old Testament. It only has 3 chapters. The book of Zephaniah contains Destruction and Salvation / The Day of the LORD In this study on Zephaniah I hope to provide an overview and lessons we can learn from the book of Zephaniah. Zephaniah, whose name means "the LORD hides," was a great-great-grandson of King Hezekiah of Judah and prophesied during the reign of Josiah (639-609B.C.), Judah's last godly ruler (Zephaniah 1:1). Zephaniah's reference to Jerusalem as "this place" (Zephaniah 1:4), as well as his detailed description of Jerusalem's landscape and its sins, supports the belief by scholars that he lived in this city. Join the study to learn so much more. I invite you to go through this Bible Study with me. Thank you, Margarita Book of Haggai Bible Study
$14.00
Tailspin Farms Life in Grace Bible Study series on the book of Haggai! NOTE: THIS IS A DIGITAL DOWNLOAD ONLY AND DOES NOT INCLUDE A PHYSICAL COPY OF THE BIBLE STUDY. THEME / PURPOSE: Rebuilding the Temple: Obedience to God Brings the Strength of His Spirit. Haggai is the first of three prophetic books in the Old Testament (Haggai, Zachariah and Malachi) written after many of God’s people had returned from exile throughout what was, at that time, the Persian Empire (based on narratives in Ezra and Nehemiah the initial return of exiles to Jerusalem)... A book containing a message of trust, commitment, and work. It involves a practice of: that should be done on a day to day basis to fix God in the very center of our life in order to maintain that place of peace and rest. A place that many of us venture out into the world to find, not realizing the work of the temple begins with us, inside. I invite you to go through this bible study with us. Thank You, Margaret Book of Matthew Bible Study
