Good works do NOT get us a ticket into Heaven. God is Holy, and we are sinful people, so Jesus came and died on the cross for our sins (John 3:16), but ONLY those who accept His salvation get into Heaven. And John 14:6 confirms that Jesus is the ONLY way to the Father. Jesus … Continue reading Working Our Way to Heaven
Who Do We Ask?
The best one to ask for help when a problem comes is someone who's gone through it and come out victoriously. As Christians, we take ALL of our problems to Jesus because HE overcame them all—AND got the victory for us. When He died on that cross, Jesus defeated sin and everything that comes with … Continue reading Who Do We Ask?
When My Heart Fails
It's hard to succeed in this corrupt world, yet, many Christians try it alone and only call on God when they fail. But God should be our first choice, not our last because He's our Lord, the Savior who gave His life to save ours. He's bigger than any task, more powerful than any enemy, … Continue reading When My Heart Fails
Cares of This World
Many worry about the cares of this world—finances, relationships, health, and a changing society. But as Christians who love Jesus and study the Bible to know Him, He is our Savior who took away our sins, and our Lord, who cares for us, establishes our finances, meets all of our needs, heals us when we're … Continue reading Cares of This World
It Begins With Humility
Christianity is not about Jesus dying on the cross, so we can use His name to have authority over the devil and live our best lives now. Christianity realizes that we are ALL sinners in need of a Savior and that Jesus IS that Savior, the Son of God who left His throne in Heaven … Continue reading It Begins With Humility
Life Goes On!
We will live forever! God created our souls—our inner being of thoughts, desires, and personality—and put them in earthly bodies. These bodies will die, but our souls will live on forever—with perfected bodies in Heaven with the Lord or in these imperfect bodies in hell with Satan. God wants ALL of us to be with … Continue reading Life Goes On!
Wishing on a Star
Wishing on a star is a mystical fantasy, but trusting in the Lord is a hope of faith! As Christians, we study the Bible to know the Lord; the more we learn, the more our desires become like His. We no longer focus on this world's riches but on the things of God. Christ's purpose … Continue reading Wishing on a Star
Humbling the Ego
As citizens of this world, we must fight for our rights! But as Christians—citizens of God's Kingdom—we must learn to humble our ego and submit to God. Jesus is our Savior AND our Lord, and He's covered us with His grace, His favor! When the world comes against us, we don't need to fight it … Continue reading Humbling the Ego
The Little Things
Sometimes, we get too obsessed with striving for the big things in life. We miss out on the little things that often bring us the greatest joy, the deepest appreciation of love, and the most gratitude for the efforts made. When we focus on the good things and how much God has blessed us, we … Continue reading The Little Things
That Four-Letter Word!
Sometimes, we give in during difficult situations, thinking we "can't" do it. But as Christians, we CAN get through them when we commit each new day to the Lord and seek His leadership and guidance. And as we study the Bible daily, we know that God won't allow anything without giving us a way through … Continue reading That Four-Letter Word!
He is the One
We enjoy life so much better when we know that someone greater than ourselves loves us and watches over us wherever we are. Jesus is the epitome of love, and when we accept Him as our Savior and our Lord, His Spirit lives in us and NEVER leaves, and when we study the Bible, His … Continue reading He is the One
Keep Going!
If you've been praying for someone or something, and haven't got the answer yet, keep praying and praising God anyway. God does hear and answer the prayers of those who love Him BUT He doesn't always answer in our timing or the way we may expect. And the devil uses this to discourage us so … Continue reading Keep Going!
Challenging Truth
We're programmed to believe that the medical world is the only answer to our health issues. The truth is that God created us, and He DOES heal those who ask and believe! But most don't get healed because they don't know Jesus as their Savior and don't put their trust in Him. He may not … Continue reading Challenging Truth
The Rich and the Poor
Society has always consisted of the rich and controlling and the poor and meek. Years ago, the rich were known as lords. If you were born into a family owned by a lord, you were that lord's property. We have all been born into this evil world, owned and ruled by its lord, the devil. … Continue reading The Rich and the Poor
We Look But Don’t See
This world belongs to God! He IS STILL on His throne though the devil is working hard to destroy us before Jesus returns. We can't see God through the sin and corruption, but when we open our hearts to God, accept Jesus as our Savior, and read the Bible to know Him, we'll see His … Continue reading We Look But Don’t See
A Creation, Not an Equal
Many think the devil is equal to God in power. He is NOT! Satan is a creation of God, an angel thrown out of Heaven because he wanted to be equal to God, who now lives in the universe, deceiving as many as he can before he's cast into hell. He must get God's permission … Continue reading A Creation, Not an Equal
Positive Thinking
There's a lot to say about positive thinking! As Christians, we face problems just like everyone else, BUT we have God to bring us through them. When we give in to our problems, the enemy fills our hearts and minds with doubt and crushes our hopes. But we can beat the doubt and fight the … Continue reading Positive Thinking
Speak the Word
There's no greater encouragement in times of trouble than God's Words for us. As we study the Bible and grow in the Lord, we realize the power in His Words. He tells us to cast our cares onto Him, to ask Him for anything according to His will, and we'd receive it, and to trust … Continue reading Speak the Word
No Surprises!
We can't depend on this world for anything because it's constantly changing its ways, rules, and priorities. But, as Christians, we CAN rely on God because He NEVER CHANGES! When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior and study the Bible to know Him, we know that God is faithful to His promises AND … Continue reading No Surprises!
Coffee and Jesus
Most of us begin our day with a steaming mug of delicious coffee to give us the energy to manage our day. But as Christians, we have an even better start to our day—prayer!
