Most people disclaim God because they don't know Him. Wannabee Christians deny His sovereign authority and twist the Truth to suit themselves. But God is not a man who lies, and He will not be mocked. He is the loving and just Creator of all and does NOT change! His Word stands forever! His promises … Continue reading Everlasting Strength
Equal But Not the Same
We are all created equal, but we're not all the same. Christians come from diverse backgrounds and cultures, and though we're all equal in God's eyes because of Christ's righteousness in us, we're not all on the same step in the path of life. Many of us suffer from issues we don't talk about; others … Continue reading Equal But Not the Same
Who Do We Blame?
Many blame God for this world's unrest and chaos. But God is NOT the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33). He's the Creator of peace and perfection. Satan corrupted this world with sin and sent us on a path toward judgment, but God sent Jesus to rescue us from our sins and give us life. … Continue reading Who Do We Blame?
Portrait of Love
Love is the defining virtue of the heart. It's why Jesus came to earth and took the punishment for our sins—He loved us THAT much! He didn't consider His own humility in leaving His throne in Heaven or the barbaric torture He'd suffer on the cross to set us free of sin and redeem us … Continue reading Portrait of Love
Revealing Hearts
Despite how we try to impress others, our words and actions often reveal what's really in our hearts. No one can try to be Christian as they have no foundation to stand on, and the joy they try to express is not real. But when we know Jesus as our Savior and study the Scriptures … Continue reading Revealing Hearts
The Power of Joy
Contrary to worldly suggestion, joy does NOT come from feelings or tangible things! Joy is heart-felt security that says everything is okay despite what we see or think because God is still in control. Joy is the strength we get from knowing Jesus personally as our Lord and Savior, the ONE who covers us with … Continue reading The Power of Joy
Overcoming Anxiety
Anxiety often peaks amid overwhelming problems. We try to deal with them on our strengths and get anxious when things don't work out. But when we cast ALL our burdens onto the Lord as He's told us to do, LEAVE them with Him, and TRUST Him to do what He's promised, we WILL have peace. … Continue reading Overcoming Anxiety
Whoever Means You and Me
We are ALL equal in God's eyes, and He has ALWAYS loved us despite our sins. So great is His love that He sent Jesus to earth to die in our place so we could be redeemed by our Father! John 3:16 says that Jesus died for everyone, that WHOEVER will believe in Him will … Continue reading Whoever Means You and Me
A Cry For Help
A frightened child will run to their parents for safety. As Christians, we run to God, our Heavenly Father, because we know we're safe with Him. When we accepted Jesus as our Savior, it was a very personal commitment; He gave us His Spirit and adopted us into God's family, making us God's children—and God … Continue reading A Cry For Help
Be Bold, Not Afraid!
Christians are God's ambassadors in this world. It's our job to tell people about God's soon-coming wrath upon this evil world AND of Christ's salvation to escape it. When we get to Heaven and don't see loved ones or friends there because we were afraid of being mocked or humiliated if we told them, we … Continue reading Be Bold, Not Afraid!
A Cheerful Heart
When problems come, it's not always easy to remain calm and cheerful. Yet, when we know Jesus as our Savior, it IS possible because then, we can look beyond the situation and see Him standing with His outstretched arm. God is greater than all of our problems, and He has promised to lead us through … Continue reading A Cheerful Heart
My Strength and My Shield

As Christians, we try to live lovingly and peacefully with others as we share the gospel, and we know the Lord is with us and will help us in our times of need. When we trust Him to lead and guide us through the tough times, we are … Continue reading My Strength and My Shield
Praying for Loved Ones
It's hard accepting the death of a loved one, especially when we don't know if they went to Heaven. This is why, as Christians, we must pray fervently for those who don't know Jesus. God loves them, and it's His will that no one should die lost, so let's pray that God will send laborers … Continue reading Praying for Loved Ones
I Am Not Ashamed!
People of the world proudly wear jerseys and show allegiance to their favorite sports teams. IF ONLY Christians could be as bold! Many hide their identity for fear of being mocked and don't share the gospel of salvation or warn anyone of God's soon-coming wrath. But we should NOT be ashamed to tell anyone about … Continue reading I Am Not Ashamed!
A Time Such as This
Nothing in this world happens by chance. Its leader has us all destined for heartache and destruction—but—when we know Jesus as our Savior, we have a purpose in the midst of it! God puts people who don't know Him on our paths so we can witness to them and pray for them, be they strangers, … Continue reading A Time Such as This
Nest Eggs
Many of us go through life collecting material possessions and building nest eggs for our retirement. We forget that we live in a corrupt world where "things" don't last and that when we get old, we won't care about them anymore anyway. As Christians, we must stop trying to succeed in this fallen world and … Continue reading Nest Eggs
Blinded by Circumstances
Many suffer because they don't know God or His promises. When we accept Jesus as our Savior, He also becomes our Lord, who cares for us. Jesus told us to cast our burdens onto Him, but when we allow our circumstances to blind us from the Truth, we miss God's outstretched arm. He must be … Continue reading Blinded by Circumstances
A Generic Term
Christianity is a generic term in the religious realm for anyone who acknowledges God's existence. But actual Christians are only those who accept Jesus as their Savior and follow Him. After His death and resurrection, Jesus told the disciples that He would go and prepare a place for us, and return one day to take … Continue reading A Generic Term
Cries of Despair
Life's storms bring an ambiance of fear when we face them alone. But when we know Jesus, we are not alone! He is God, Creator of Heaven and earth! He's greater than all the storms and promised to bring us through them when we trust Him. We don't need to cry in despair when trouble … Continue reading Cries of Despair
We Have the Victory
We may want to drive the perfect car, but we need fuel to move it. Likewise, we may want to do great things as Christians, but we must know Jesus to succeed. He puts God's Spirit in us, who bonds us to our Father and teaches us the fullness of God through the Scriptures. He … Continue reading We Have the Victory
