Many celebrate Christmas with Santa and parties, yet there's a feeling of divine love in the air that can't be denied. Christians celebrate by singing, rejoicing, and giving thanks to God for the birth of Christ, our Lord and Savior. We give gifts and celebrate His gift to us, and His love fills us with … Continue reading The Feeling of Love!
Light and Darkness!
The darkness of this evil world is thick. When Satan invaded our world, God withdrew His Spirit—His Light, leaving us to live in an evil world that would destroy us. But God loves us and sent Jesus to defeat sin and death on the cross and redeem us. When we accept Jesus as our Savior, … Continue reading Light and Darkness!
We Know His Voice!
When children are lost, they search diligently for their parents. They'll go to others for help and perhaps even fall and get hurt along the way; their tears are real, and their hearts are desperate. But when they hear the voice of their father, they know they're safe and rejoice as He gathers them into … Continue reading We Know His Voice!
Giving Treasures!
Many people treasure earthly things and don't like sharing or giving them away. But as Christians, we want to give because God gave us the greatest gift, His Son, to save us from our sins. He filled us with His Spirit so we could take on Christ's attitude of giving and sharing things with others, … Continue reading Giving Treasures!
Celebrating Jesus!
Long before Jesus was born, the pagans held annual celebrations in honor of their gods with massive feasts, gifts, and decorations. After Jesus died and rose to Heaven, Christians weren't able to celebrate His birth because the Romans despised Christians and would kill them for rebellion. But when Emperor Constantine reigned, he secretly converted to … Continue reading Celebrating Jesus!
It Sounds a Lot Like Christmas!
The Christmas season is upon us! Many are happy, shopping and preparing for it; others are sad, knowing they can't afford costly gifts and festivities. But Christmas isn't about us: it's about rejoicing in the gift God gave us—Jesus! When we know Jesus as our Savior, we're filled with joy, knowing He came and gave … Continue reading It Sounds a Lot Like Christmas!
Joyful Hearts!
The world has turned its back on God, and Satan now rules with sin and chaos. Many suffer, are discouraged, depressed, and without hope amid personal issues and political and economic disasters. But we who love God and know Jesus as our Lord and Savior are NOT weighed down because we no longer serve the … Continue reading Joyful Hearts!
He Cares for the Birds!
Sometimes, Christians feel alone when rough times come. But we must remember that if God cares for the birds in winter when food is scarce, He will care for us who accept His salvation and love Him. Jesus is our Lord, and He's faithful to His Word. He told us that in this world, we'd … Continue reading He Cares for the Birds!
When Truth is Realized!
Many have heard about Jesus on the cross. But we must realize the truth of what He did and accept Him as our Savior to be Christians. We're all born in sin and will never get to Heaven because of that sin, but God took on the body of a man, died on the cross … Continue reading When Truth is Realized!
A Glorious Future!
As this world heads into God's wrath because of sin, Christians look forward to a glorious future because of Jesus! Sin, including idolatry and immorality, along with political corruption, are out of control, just as the Bible prophecies foretold. But this is only a foretaste of what will come after Jesus calls all believers Home … Continue reading A Glorious Future!
The Thanksgiving Mood!
The Thanksgiving mood is in the air as families gather to feast and give thanks for all their earthly possessions. But as Christians, we're not limited to one day; our hearts rejoice daily as we praise God for the gift He's given us. We are thankful that God loves us so much that He'd send … Continue reading The Thanksgiving Mood!
Desires!
Many of us strive our whole lives to attain our desires and goals, yet, it's all left behind when we leave this world. But when we know Jesus, our desires change to be like His, and our blessings never end. We don't focus on worldly possessions but on God's treasures—those who don't know Jesus. We … Continue reading Desires!
I Love The Lord!
Love is powerful! With it, we're happy and at peace; without it, we're the target of all evil. Most people don't know it, but we all crave God's love, and when we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we are filled with a love beyond understanding! He gives us confidence as a child of … Continue reading I Love The Lord!
Faith and Works!
Apostle Paul showed his faith in God by his works (James 2:18). This is the benchmark for all believers. We can say we believe in God, but if we never use our faith to trust Him in situations, we will never know if we actually have faith in God or only think we do. We … Continue reading Faith and Works!
Our Greatest Blessing!
We give thanks for our many blessings but often forget to include the gift of life from Christ Jesus. This world is heading into its worst hour as God is about to pour His wrath upon all sin and sentence it to hell—that includes anyone who has sin in them. But Christians will be spared … Continue reading Our Greatest Blessing!
Working Together for Good!
Christians know God as our Heavenly Father, who loves and cares for us. When we pray for something, we must see ourselves as His children, asking in faith and trusting Him with the answer. We don't have His infinite knowledge or wisdom nor the understanding of the enemy that strives to destroy us, and sometimes, … Continue reading Working Together for Good!
Sow and Reap!
It says in Galatians 6:7-9 we reap what we sow. Farmers understand this law; they till and fertilize the ground, plant the seeds, and keep them watered and weed-free to harvest a healthy crop. It's the same law for Christians; we study the Bible to know God and His Word to stand on good ground. … Continue reading Sow and Reap!
Feel the Freedom!
This evil, chaotic world is heading for God's judgment as political powers, immorality, and technology destroy the value of life. Many are turning to God for help but won't commit to Jesus, and when nothing changes for them, they say Christianity doesn't work. But when we actually accept Jesus as our Savior and commit to … Continue reading Feel the Freedom!
What is Our Blessed Hope?
Many Christians confuse the Appearance of Christ with the Second Coming of Christ. This evil world is about to see God's wrath against sin (the Great Tribulation.) But before it begins, Jesus will appear to all believers and take us out of this world (the rapture) because God's wrath is not for the church (1 … Continue reading What is Our Blessed Hope?
A Heart of Joy!
Loneliness is painful. This superficial, digital world of socialism does not replace real friendship, and when we shut the gadgets off and close our doors, we are alone. Yet, there is a Friend whose presence is very real and who never leaves but sticks closer than a brother. He loves you and me so much … Continue reading A Heart of Joy!
Smile, God Loves You!
