How do we avoid stumbling on a dark path? We turn on a lantern to show us the way. Darkness would still be around us, but we'd see the path ahead and keep going forward. This is what the Word of God does for us. It doesn't remove the dark evil around us but clearly … Continue reading Light in the Darkness
Shout With Joy
God is love but can only show His love to those who want it. As Christians, we know He blesses us, and we're thankful, but if we could look into the spirit world, we'd see that God has done and IS doing far more than we could ever imagine. He watches over us and protects … Continue reading Shout With Joy
Be at Peace and Shine
Have you ever noticed that you can face difficult situations more easily when you're not stressed or anxious? It's easy to get caught up with all that's happening in this corrupt world, which can affect us physically, mentally, and emotionally. But when we know Jesus and put our trust in Him, He fills us with … Continue reading Be at Peace and Shine
No One knows us Like God
No one knows us like God; we don't even know ourselves as He does. As Christians, we're in awe when we look back to all the times God answered our prayers and showed His love and mercy to us. He answered prayers that were insignificant to anyone else but meant everything to us. It warms … Continue reading No One knows us Like God
From Sunrise to Dawn
We get emotional, even angry when we hear of the ongoing global horrors. Sadly, things will worsen as this world heads into the "hour of tribulation." But as Christians, we shouldn't fear because our hope is in the Lord, who promised to call us out of here before He pours His wrath upon this sinful … Continue reading From Sunrise to Dawn
A Good Witness
The things we say and do reflect what's in our hearts. We may say that we're Christian and try to put on a good face in front of people, but the truth comes out when we face adversity or controversial issues. Our actions and reactions allow the world to see who we are. God's presence … Continue reading A Good Witness
Where Our Help Comes From
Most of us have cell phones to call for help when needed. But what do we do when we're alone and can't call anyone? As Christians, we call to Jesus because He's ALWAYS with us. He's our help in times of trouble, our refuge and strength, and should be the first one we call because … Continue reading Where Our Help Comes From
Don’t Lose Heart
Praying alone for someone isn't easy when others say it's hopeless. But God wants us to keep praying even if we don't see any change. These are His children whom He loves and whose sins will take them to hell if they don't receive His salvation. Every prayer breaks down the spiritual grip of the … Continue reading Don’t Lose Heart
You Are Loved
God's love for us is unconditional and eternal. We've drifted from Him because of sin and pushed Him out of our lives to worship other gods (self, money, lust, and power), but He has NEVER stopped loving us. He sent Jesus to die on the cross for our sins and then raised Him from the … Continue reading You Are Loved
A Reason to Rejoice
Being joyful or at peace isn't easy when we're under personal attack in this chaotic world. But as Christians, we CAN when we focus on Jesus. He warned us of these evil days and how God would soon pour out His wrath upon this world. But we don't belong to this world; we belong to … Continue reading A Reason to Rejoice
His Plan Works
Life doesn't always happen as we plan it. Sometimes, God allows circumstances that force us to see the evil in this world and the hope in His salvation. When we become Christians, our values, priorities, and path of life change to fulfill His purpose in our lives. Sometimes, our answers to prayers won't be what … Continue reading His Plan Works
Words of Hope
As Christians, we pray about our circumstances. But when answers don't come, how and when we want them, we begin to doubt because we forget that God DOES hear and answer us, BUT often in His way and His timing. When we get anxious and speak doubt, our minds begin to believe what we hear … Continue reading Words of Hope
One Voice
New-age Christianity says that God speaks to us through thoughts and feelings. This is a lie that will keep us FROM God. The Scriptures are God's Words, given to men to record so we can read them, fill up on them, and know Him! As we study them, God's Spirit teaches us His Truth so … Continue reading One Voice
Truth and Mercy
The world is changing: love has become a conditional emotion, mercy is a limited right, and truth is a recognized opinion. Yet, God does not change! His love for us remains UNconditional and eternal; His mercies are everlasting, and His Truth endures forever. Nothing we say or do can change God's rule because He is … Continue reading Truth and Mercy
Facing Battles
Billy Graham is noted for saying, "If God brings you to it, He'll bring you through it." God isn't a militant leader who appoints jobs and then leaves us alone to use our own means, thoughts, and strengths. Our battles are spiritual, and God wants us to be equipped through His Spirit to stand against … Continue reading Facing Battles
From the Heart
Being Christian is not about changing our ways to suit religious rules. It's about knowing that Jesus is the Son of God, the Savior who came to earth to save us from our sins. It's about us WANTING to turn from all of our worldly desires and habits to serve Him! It's about loving God … Continue reading From the Heart
Maybe Today!
False teachers and prophets are among us with deceiving messages about God's will for us (2 Peter 2:1). They say God has told them it's our year for prosperity and good health and that God wants to help us to be who WE want to be in this world. But this is NOT a message … Continue reading Maybe Today!
Unconditional Joy
To rejoice means to feel or show great joy. Emotional joy is conditional on how we feel and what makes us happy. But Christian joy fills our souls with unconditional delight because we know what Jesus has done, is doing, and will do for us. He's greater than our problems and has made way for … Continue reading Unconditional Joy
You Are Not Alone!
Sometimes we feel alone, as if no one cares or understands us. As Christians, the more we study the Scriptures to know Jesus, the further we drift from the world—and even our unsaved friends and loved ones. But we are NOT alone because Jesus is with us ALWAYS! We need to call out His name … Continue reading You Are Not Alone!
Who Changes?
One of the greatest challenges for Christians today is to stand for Truth and not blend with the world's religion. It's hard because many leaders have us convinced that God is changing to make our lives better so we can become part of modern-day society and still go to Heaven. But it's not okay. God … Continue reading Who Changes?
Smile, God Loves You!
