The Urgent Imperative of Ministry: Stop Stalling, Start Serving
You have the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit has equipped you. the Holy Spirit is ready to move. Let’s go!
Too many believers spend their whole lives figuring out their gift. Debating, pondering, considering, but never actually employing their gift/s in ministry to the brethren/church.
NO WILL BUT THINE
All that is opposed to Thee,
Howsoever dear it be,
From my heart the idol tear,
Thou shalt have no rival there,
Only Thou shalt fill the throne:
Saviour, let Thy will be done.
Holy Hospitality
The opportunity to help, to minister, to bless others, in any way, should always be welcomed. Welcomed because we want so much to serve God. But, in so many aspects of life, we prefer to serve only who, and when, and how we want. And, thus, we don’t really serve at all, no matter what we decide to do.
Has God Already Provided for your Taxes?
The children of God live in the Kingdom of God, therefore, no tax in any kingdom of man can stop/hinder the work of a child of God going about their Father’s business in the Kingdom of God. God the Father had already provided for our earthly needs, so no earthly tax can stop you or me from doing the work of God here on earth.
Dear Lord Give me a Heart
A heart that’s cleansed from sin’s vile scourge
A dwelling place for Thee
A heart Thy precious blood did purge
A heart from sin set free
Glory to God Only Wise!
God’s wisdom and knowledge are infinite. Who knows enough to argue with God? Who is wise enough to give God counsel?
Jehovah’s Judgments | 5. Exploitation
We should never assume that God is comfortable with our sinfulness. Just because we don’t see God moving doesn’t mean He is standing still. Contrary to what the merchants of Judah thought, God does judge sin.
The Maker of the Universe
His holy fingers made the bough
which grew the thorns that crowned His brow.
The nails that pierced His hands were mined
in secret places He designed.
Igniting Idolatry: When Your Values Become Your God
Where the doctrines, teachings, principles of the Bible have been removed, God cannot be worshipped. If the god we worship is not The God of the Bible, then we are worshipping an idol of our own creation, an idol in our own image. If we do not know God as the Bible defines Him, we cannot worship Him. If the god we know is defined by false teachers or false doctrines, then we only know a false god.
