Many new Christian converts are quickly deceived by false teachers, convinced that God wants to bless and prosper them abundantly in this world's wealth. They miss the whole point of salvation! When we accept Jesus as our Savior, we become citizens of Heaven and no longer belong to this sinful world that's about to know … Continue reading The Deception of False Teachers!
Pray for Each Other!
I haven’t posted for a while because several weeks ago, I was attacked by an unexpected health issue that almost took my life. I reached out to my family and friends, who kept me in their prayers—and against all odds, I survived the attack. I will never be able to thank them enough for their … Continue reading Pray for Each Other!
True Humility!
Humility is not popular in this corrupt world. People compete to be better and have more than others, replacing Godly values for rights and self-righteousness, bowing to no one except self. It’s not until we know Jesus as our Lord and Savior and study the Bible that we realize we’ve been racing in a doomed world … Continue reading True Humility!
Be Encouraged!
A frightened songbird was perched atop a towering tree overlooking the darkness of evil. The sky was polluted with sin. Harrowing cries from broken hearts echoed throughout the storm-clad atmosphere; the young were worshiping skulls and drugs as the elders were being stoked by self-worth. Multitudes were rebuking Godly values and following Satan, clinging to … Continue reading Be Encouraged!
Our Greatest Love!
The greatest joy of being Christian is knowing Jesus. When we study the Bible, God's Spirit teaches us His Truth, and we understand who Jesus is and who we are in Him. We learn why this evil, dark world is set to destroy us as it heads into God's wrath, and it gives us a … Continue reading Our Greatest Love!
To Be Like Him!
Many work hard at trying to be Christians. They struggle between following diverse church rules and standards and accepting the ever-changing laws of rights and morals. But true Christians obey only one set of rules written by God in the Bible and follow only one Lord, Christ Jesus. God's Spirit lives in us, and as … Continue reading To Be Like Him!
Speak with Confidence!
It takes faith to trust God and boldness to confess our hope is in Him. This evil world does everything in its power to steal the joy of our salvation and make us look foolish. It arranges situations to delude us, sends friends to discourage us, and draws the picture of the impossible to fill … Continue reading Speak with Confidence!
Shocking Truth!
Truth can be shocking! We study our Bibles and learn that God created us in perfection and that Satan deceived Adam and Eve into sinning against God, making us all inherent sinners, condemned to eternal hell with Satan and his tormenting demons. This world is getting worse with sin and corruption, but Jesus made a … Continue reading Shocking Truth!
Voices!
It's easier to hear many loud voices shouting at us to do something than one still, quiet voice telling us not to. As Christians, we must learn to hear and follow God's voice, not the world's. So, we study the Bible to know Him and get His Word planted in our hearts because it gives … Continue reading Voices!
Why We Rejoice!
Christians who wear the label for convenience don't care about God. But real born-again, Spirit-filled believers who accept Jesus as our Savior rejoice in Him because He is worthy of our praise. Jesus redeemed us from this evil world, pardoned our sins, filled us with His righteousness, and gave us an eternal Home with Him … Continue reading Why We Rejoice!
Forgiven, Not Perfect!
When we accept Jesus as our Savior, He pardons our sins and fills us with His righteousness, but we are not perfect. Soon, Jesus will call us Home to be with Him forever, and we WILL be perfect, but until then, we live in this sinful world and sometimes fall into its temptations. God forgives … Continue reading Forgiven, Not Perfect!
God’s Light in a Dark World
There's no escaping the political disasters, economic setbacks, natural disasters, and vile immorality and idolatry that surround us. Many ask, "Where's God in all of this?" Well, God is in Heaven watching it all, ready to pour His wrath upon this dark, evil world. But His Spirit lives in the hearts of Christians, and He … Continue reading God’s Light in a Dark World
Revealing Faith!
Patience—or lack of it—reveals our faith level. If we pray but get impatient waiting for the answer and go somewhere else, we don't have faith in God. But when we study the Bible to know Jesus and His love for us, we develop a relationship with Him, a trust that can't be broken. We won't … Continue reading Revealing Faith!
He’s on My Side!
It's easy to get overwhelmed between personal problems and continual global disasters, but when we know Jesus, we have hope! The issues won't change (John 16:33) because we live in a sinful world, but Jesus is OUR Lord, and He defeated evil at the cross. We can call on Him in times of distress, and … Continue reading He’s on My Side!
Following Our Shepherd!
For Christians, salvation in Christ is the beginning of our new lives. Jesus pardoned our sins and saved us from His soon-coming wrath upon this corrupt world. We are now children of God, citizens of Heaven! But like sheep in the field, we'll get lost in this sinful world unless we submit to Jesus and … Continue reading Following Our Shepherd!
Our Confession!
Many believe truth to be what they want it to be. But there is only ONE Truth! God created us in perfection, but Adam's disobedience condemned us with inherent sin. In love, Jesus went to the cross to pardon our sins and was raised from the dead to give us eternal life with Him. He's … Continue reading Our Confession!
Choose Your Master!
The world satisfies our desires to keep us from seeking God. Even many Christians continue in the world's ways for convenience. But we can NOT serve two masters (Matthew 6:24); we must choose who we will follow. If we truly love Jesus with all our hearts, minds, and souls, we will study our Bibles to … Continue reading Choose Your Master!
There’s Peace in Truth!
Knowing about God is very different from knowing God. His Truth has become lost between the diversity of religions that proclaim to know God and the idealism of what many want God to be. This has enabled the enemy to rise and lead the world into a state of chaos and corruption that's heading for … Continue reading There’s Peace in Truth!
It’s Not Impossible!
Many of us doubt God's power because we don't know Him. We tend to bring Him down to our level, forgetting that He's the Creator of everything living! He's Almighty, all-knowing, and ever-present. No one is equal to Him, but there is one who challenges His deity—the devil, and he works hard to convince us … Continue reading It’s Not Impossible!
What is Prayer?
Prayer is a personal communication line between God and us, which only opens when we know Jesus. It's us talking to God as a child talks to their father. We praise and thank Him for His love, seek His help for our problems, stand on His Word for the answers, and rest in Him for … Continue reading What is Prayer?
Smile, God Loves You!
