As Christians, we take our concerns to God in prayer and many of us make it a daily routine as we bring the same situation to God day after day. Our first prayer begins with humility and reverence, but by the millionth prayer for the same issue we wonder if God is even listening to … Continue reading God is Not Deaf

Pride Comes Before a Fall
Many Christians have the attitude that they can work out their problems and they think that it’s a bother to even pray about them. Yet, God is always there so we should never get so caught up with the ways of this world and our own self-image that we forget to take Jesus with us. … Continue reading Pride Comes Before a Fall
A Very Dark Hour
It seems that life now-a-days has more ups and downs and constant challenges than ever before. The law has changed dramatically and now it allow things that years ago would have been forbidden such as the legalization of abortion and the acceptance of a homosexual lifestyle.

Christians, Wake Up!
Many so-called Christian churches today are filled with myths and deception and literally force the people away from God and into a false religion that mocks the God of Heaven. And although many people feel that they are sanctified because they attend church, the truth is that attending church doesn’t make you a Christian anymore than … Continue reading Christians, Wake Up!
A Humbling Experience
I recently read a book called, The Hiding Place, and it’s the true story of Corrie ten Boom, a woman who not only survived the brutal concentration camps of WW2, but who saved the lives of countless persecuted Christians and was a light to many other women in the camps. I was totally captivated by … Continue reading A Humbling Experience
What God Sees in Us
No one is born with a silver spoon in their mouth and few of us are raised in a wealthy home amid servants and personal care takers.

We’re all proud of our accomplishments … Continue reading What God Sees in Us
When All Else Fails, Trust God
As intelligent and civilized people, we all feel at one time or another that we can handle most of the situations that come against us. We believe that we have the skills and abilities to attack the problems head on, but sometimes our problems are beyond us. And it’s often at that point … Continue reading When All Else Fails, Trust God
Don’t be Deceived!
Many of today’s Christians have a very worldly point of view regarding certain kinds of sin.

How Attitude Gives Away Secrets We Didn’t Know We Had
There are times in life when we deliberately fake our feelings and we are able to control our facial expressions and our words because we don’t want our true feelings to be known. It’s a test of discipline and when we succeed we’re happy because we managed to hide our true feelings, which is what … Continue reading How Attitude Gives Away Secrets We Didn’t Know We Had
Faith: Use it or Lose it!
Studying the Bible is comparable to studying music. We can mentally learn how to play the piano, but until we actually begin to work the keys with our fingers and apply the knowledge that’s in our head, it’s just education that’s stuck in our brain and will fade away after time. But when we apply … Continue reading Faith: Use it or Lose it!

What does it Mean to be Saved?

Out of Sight But Not Out of Mind
So many of us are living in defeat because we have issues from years gone by that we have never dealt with as they are just too painful to think about.

…But Can You Walk the Walk…
The world is bursting with people who proclaim to be Christians, and what is really surprising is that it’s becoming very difficult to see the difference between them and the non-believers. This begs the question: do Christians today know how to walk the walk? What is the walk? Do we have to prove to the world that … Continue reading …But Can You Walk the Walk…
Don’t Get Caught in the Doorway
So many Christians are standing in the doorway between this world and Heaven without truly knowing Jesus and just trusting that they’ll make it in when the time comes. But this is really one doorway that you don’t want to get stuck in, especially if the door closes when you're not looking. It’s like standing … Continue reading Don’t Get Caught in the Doorway
Stop Giving the Devil Glory!
Many Christians go to church on Sunday’s and worship and sing praises to God, and share testimonies and give Him the glory for all the good things in their lives. And God receives all the glory, which is a good thing because He deserves it. But then, many will turn their allegiance around during the … Continue reading Stop Giving the Devil Glory!
The Boundaries of Love
When we think of the word “love” our minds reflect on several aspects of love in our own lives. We have a love for our spouse, which is a strong heartfelt bond that’s greater than any other human relationship, and we have a love for our children that is equal in commitment and totally unconditional. … Continue reading The Boundaries of Love

Are Heaven and Hell Real?
Most Christians accept that there is a Heaven and assume that they’ll go there when they leave earth, but many do not believe that there is a hell. Some of the new-agers believe that for unsaved people hell is here on earth, and for those who DO know Christ, then their Heaven is here on earth. … Continue reading Are Heaven and Hell Real?
