The day after Jesus cleansed the temple, He returned to teach as He often did. He taught with absolute authority, which offended the chief priests and elders, so they asked him by what authority He taught. Instead of humbling to their demands, Jesus asked them if the baptism of John was of God or of … Continue reading The Countdown: Day 5

Who is Like Our God?
God is our Creator, full of love and mercy, just and righteous in all His ways. This world's god is loveless and requires a sacrifice—us. So we serve him through our flesh and worldly desires, not realizing that he's dragging us to hell with him. But the God of Heaven does not REQUIRE a sacrifice—He … Continue reading Who is Like Our God?
The Countdown: Day 6
The day after Jesus' glorious entrance into Jerusalem, He went to the temple of God and was angered by what He saw. This sacred building had become a common marketplace, a vast flea market where even animals were loose and untrained. Jesus grabbed a whip and snapped it at the animals, and they fled the … Continue reading The Countdown: Day 6
A Shield Against the Storm
This world's rules are changing, and many "churches" are accepting the changes. But God does NOT change! His Word is still true, as proven by all the prophecies spoken that have come to pass as predicted. When we READ THE BIBLE to know the Truth, we understand why a storm is coming, but when we … Continue reading A Shield Against the Storm
Palm Sunday
One week before Jesus died on the cross, He rode into Jerusalem on a donkey. He'd preached for over three years and had many followers who believed that He was their Messiah and King. So, they laid down palm branches before Him, a tradition that honored a king. Yet, few understood that to be their … Continue reading Palm Sunday
He is Faithful
Have you ever watched little children as Christmas season begins? Their eyes fill with joy and their hearts burst with the hope that we'll bless them. As God's children, we're like that, too. When we study the Bible and spend time in prayer and worship, God's Spirit in us fills us with joy, peace—and hope. … Continue reading He is Faithful
Today is the Day
Many know about God and that Jesus died on the cross for their sins, but few will commit to Him. They'd rather enjoy this world first, get saved later. But there may not be a "later." Look what's going on in Israel, and in our own governments and societies—immorality and lawlessness, just as Jesus predicted. … Continue reading Today is the Day
The Good Things
Sometimes, we get so caught up with what's going wrong in our lives that we don't thank God for the good things. He redeems us from death, forgives all our sins, heals our diseases, and crowns us with love and mercy. If we could look into the spirit world and see what He does for … Continue reading The Good Things
When Grace is Enough
Many of us suffer from disabilities, making daily life a challenge at times. Apostle Paul had an affliction and asked God three times to remove it, but God told him that His grace was sufficient. Paul learned that when he was at his weakest, God's strength filled him and enabled him to do many remarkable … Continue reading When Grace is Enough
Mistaking Fear
Fear is a powerful emotion and can humble the bravest of souls. Many are afraid of God because they don't know Him. Yet, He gave us His Word to know Him and to learn how sin separated us from Him and how Jesus redeemed us. To fear the Lord is to know God is Holy … Continue reading Mistaking Fear
The Door Swings Both Ways
Sometimes, we wonder why we can't sense God's presence. Well, the door swings both ways. Jesus left His throne in Heaven, became a man, died barbarically on the cross to take our sins away, and gave us His Spirit to be with us always. He's proved His love for us; now it's our turn to … Continue reading The Door Swings Both Ways
Calling All Prayer Warriors!
Please join me in an urgent prayer for Israel! She's under attack and needs our prayers: Civil unrest inside its gates, political wars preparing for an invasion outside its gates, and judicial lawfare seeking to destroy its integrity as a nation. The Ezekiel War is getting close. Let's pray that God will protect those who … Continue reading Calling All Prayer Warriors!
What is Truth?
What is Truth? Before His crucifixion, Jesus was asked this question by Pontius Pilate. As Christians, we must beware of those who preach a false Truth. Jesus is the ONLY Truth, and we can only know Him when we study the Scriptures prayerfully and let God's Spirit teach us. When our hearts are focused on … Continue reading What is Truth?
Light Shines Through the Darkness
Darkness is spreading. Lawlessness, immorality, and intense weather disasters are increasing daily across the globe, just as Jesus predicted in Matthew 24. Why? Because this sinful world doesn't want God in it, and the devil is having his day! However, God is still in control, BUT His grace is about to end. Jesus is getting … Continue reading Light Shines Through the Darkness
It’s Not What Others Say
Many depend on others to teach them about God. Their faith is based on what others say, but it's not real because they don't know God. True faith believes that God IS who He says He is and that He can and WILL do the things He's promised. But we can only know His promises … Continue reading It’s Not What Others Say
The Stolen Promise
Why don't some prayers get answered? We're told in 1 Peter 5:7 to give our problems to God and in Proverbs 15:29 that He hears our prayers. However, many don't understand that we have to BELIEVE that Jesus is our Lord and WILL do the things He's promised AND that we must surrender it all … Continue reading The Stolen Promise
Taking Our Cue
It's hard to thank God for our few things when our eyes are on those who have more. But when we focus on what Jesus did for us on the cross and what He has in store for us through eternity instead of on material things, we won't be able to stop praising Him. We … Continue reading Taking Our Cue
Who Am I?
In this sinful world, I'm merely a pawn in a chess game. But as a Christian, I'm somebody! I'm chosen by God, so I'm special. I'm redeemed through Christ's blood, so my sins are forgiven. I'm adopted into God's family, sealed with His Spirit, so I'm never alone. I'm His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus … Continue reading Who Am I?
The Expanse of Life
Few people realize the true expanse of life. God made us, His children, to be with Him through eternity. But Adam broke the bond when he disobeyed and let sin in, forcing God, who is Holy, to separate Himself from us. Yet, God still loved us and sent Jesus to become a man to die … Continue reading The Expanse of Life
Transformers
Christianity is not about trying to be good, struggling to follow the rules, and lamenting over things we can no longer enjoy. Instead, it's a transformation of the heart! It's realizing who Jesus is, accepting that we are sinners who NEED His forgiveness to escape His coming judgment, and turning away from the world's sins … Continue reading Transformers
