Greetings, Have you ever noticed how those who have endured the most trouble and faced the greatest tribulation are usually the happiest people, and how they have the greatest faith in God? That’s because God has proven Himself to be faithful and that has given them a healthy and positive outlook on life! Embracing a […]

Greetings, What is the secret to overcoming temptation? Every believer will be tempted by the enemy. Therefore it makes sense to know how to resist temptation. It is a weapon the enemy never tires of using against us. The secret is to continually store God’s Word in our hearts. Psalm 119:11 (NKJV) – “Your word I […]

Greetings, How can we ever master the Word of God? It can seem like such a daunting task. I’m talking about 66 books, 1,189 chapters, and—depending upon the translation, 31,102 verses and up to 807,362 words. That’s a lot to be familiar with and to thoroughly understand. Can we ever really master or learn everything […]

Greetings, What voices are you listening to? Remember how Israel was terribly affected by the bad report of the ten spies about the Promised Land? They were terrified when they heard about massive, well-defended cities and huge giants. Because they listened to the wrong voices and became so terrified, Israel spent an additional 40 years […]

Greetings, A forgery is nearly always a poor substitute for an original. This is reflected in the price you’re asked to pay. Whether it’s a painting or a purse, a copy is worth only a fraction of the original. This is why it’s always a mistake to imitate someone else—with this one exception: Ephesians 5:1 […]

Greetings, Our obedience does not benefit God. As God, He is complete and there isn’t anything I can do to add to Him. However, our obedience does greatly benefit us. What do I mean by that? Incredible dividends come to those who obey God’s Word! Deuteronomy 5:32-33 (NKJV) – “Therefore you shall be careful to do […]

Greetings, What is your attitude toward the challenges that you are facing today? Are you angry, resentful, fearful or in doubt? Instead, you can be happy, thankful, positive and believing. Some folks seem to face a difficult circumstance and sail right through it, while others who face the same situation barely make it through. There […]

Greetings, When God does something, you can be sure that He will always do it right! This is what Jeremiah said: Jeremiah 17:14 (NKJV) – “Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; Save me, and I shall be saved, FOR YOU ARE MY PRAISE.” We can trust God to do what He has promised, […]

Greetings, Have you ever thought about how much Jesus gave to save you? It cost Him His life! What does that say about how much He must love us that He would die in our place, even before we were born? Even more stunning is the fact that He made this provision knowing that we […]

Greetings, Covenants were important in scripture. The people of the Bible understood their significance and valued covenants highly. You cannot understand God’s heart if you fail to comprehend the value of covenants. That’s because our God is a “covenant-keeping” God. This is what Jeremiah wrote: Jeremiah 33:19-21 (NKJV) – “And the word of the LORD came […]

Greetings, There are some things that are very important for believers to know. For example, do you have any idea how much God loves you? I mean, really loves you? Jeremiah 31:3 (NKJV) – “The LORD has appeared of old to me, saying: “Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have […]

Greetings, If you were to develop a cure for cancer, sufferers would line up at your door. Grateful patients would pay whatever price you asked, until their savings were depleted. The Nobel prize for medicine would be guaranteed and you would be hailed as a hero by the world. Your place in history would be […]

Greetings, Hope creates a stronghold the enemy cannot destroy. When we refuse to give up and choose to live every day in hope, Satan can’t overcome us. Hope makes us unshakeable and strong as believers. It is our anchor of the soul, securely tied to God’s promises in the past and to the victories that […]

Greetings, Have you ever felt that you had just blown it big time? To make matters worse, who showed up immediately? No doubt the enemy came accusing you and declaring that your fellowship with God would never be the same again. Well, he is a liar! Read these words: Micah 7:18-19 (NKJV) – “Who is a God like […]

Greetings, As parents or grandparents, we pray for our children every day. Our desire is for them to go farther in life and accomplish much more than we ever have. We hope that others will respect and admire their character and their achievements. Did you know that God hears our prayers and has promised to […]

Greetings, Faith is the currency of the Kingdom of God. While our desires, needs, and persistence may gain God’s attention, faith is what prompts Him to act! Galatians 3:5 (NKJV) – “Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by […]

Greetings, In Psalm 143:6 (NKJV), David said: “I spread out my hands to You; My soul longs for You like a thirsty land. Selah.” Have you ever been thirsty? I mean, really and desperately thirsty? I’ve been in places where fresh water was very limited. Once while traveling in Africa where there was severe drought, we failed […]

Greetings, We read in Joshua 3:2-3 (NKJV) – “So it was, after three days, that the officers went through the camp; [3] and they commanded the people, saying, “When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then you shall set out from your place […]
