Jumping in the water

Belief is Only the Beginning

Believing in Jesus is not the hard part, that’s not what stops us from truly coming to God. What prevents us from becoming disciples is our unwillingness to apply God’s Word fully and continually to our every aspect of lives. Many of us believe in Jesus, but we want to continue in our own word, we want to do things the way we like it, we want to be “free”, just like lucifer.

The Requirements for Righteousness

How can I survive on my own?
I can’t make it all alone.
I have tried to do right, but I fail over and over again.
When will I overcome my weakness? When? When!
I look to my brother, and he is struggling too.
Lord, have mercy on me and my brother we NEED You.

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is  a new creature: old things are passed  away; behold, all things are become new.  (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Miracles of Jesus: The Ten Lepers… “It takes more faith to give our lives to Jesus than to receive healing.”

When Jesus is our Master, we focus on how we can GLORIFY Him, not on how He can SATISFY us.

"...Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name." ~Matthew 6:9

Four Steps For Spiritual Restoration

The believer that humbles himself before The Almighty God will pray, because he recognizes that he must submit to the will of the Lord of Hosts. The believer that discerns the will of God through prayer must also ‘seek God’s face’, because to walk in the will of God is to walk in communion with God. And the believer that walks in communion with God cannot help but have his mind renewed.

The Parable of the Two Sons: “It’s not how you start… It’s how you finish!”

It’s not what you SAY, It’s what you DO.
It’s not how you START, It’s how you FINISH.
It’s not who you ARE, It’s who you can BECOME.

One Bible = One Belief: The Dilemma of Biblical Authenticity

Salvation requires faith in the true God: the God described by the Authentic Scripture: The Bible. If we do not believe in the God of the Scripture, then we are not saved by the God of the Scripture. Every god defines his/her/its own terms of salvation. The God of the pure unabridged Scriptures defines His terms too. If we do not like His salvation plan, we are free to construct our own god from the parts of the scripture we find convenient to our lifestyle and philosophy. But, make no mistake, that god is NOT the God of the Bible.

Elijah and the Captains of Fifty | The Good, The Bad and the Uh… Seriously??

If we humble ourselves to God, we will enjoy success (as God defines it) in this earthly life and in eternity; and we will avoid the fires of judgment. Don’t force God to show you who is King: serve Him and be fireproof; challenge Him and you will get fire proof.

Reorientation from Remuneration Frustration

Many of us become frustrated with our lack of earthly treasure. We wonder why God hasn’t blessed us with the things that “moth” and “rust doth corrupt”. Somehow, we fail to recognize that God has lovingly removed from our lives the temptation to accumulate wealth unto ourselves. Indeed, we fail to see that our very desire for material wealth demonstrates that we are focused on earthly treasure rather than on the “treasures in heaven” that Jesus instructs us to hold dear.

All have Knowledge, Some have Salvation, None have Excuse

Mankind’s problem isn’t fundamentally one of knowledge. Rather the issue that besets the world is one of will. We know God exists, we know what is right. But will we seek God? Will we humbly accept His Way and His Salvation?

Rest in Hope

God not only promises us a way out of every temptation, He also offers us rest. Not just for our souls, and not someday in the future – but right now and for our very flesh, even that part of us that constantly fights Him. “My flesh also shall rest in hope.”

Tidings to Shepherds: Broadcasts to Outcasts

Perhaps God has humbled you lately. Perhaps you have lost you job, or lost your house, or lost your health, or lost your savings or some combination of the above. While this can be quite painful, difficult and bewildering, perhaps God is preparing to speak a message to you that you are just now prepared to hear.
