As we age, many things take us longer to do, and others seem almost impossible. Yet, the Bible says that nothing is impossible to us who believe. So how do we apply this mindset to a body that doesn't work as it once did, or a mind that is slowing down? We must remember that … Continue reading Impossible Tasks
Philippians 4:13
What I Can Do!
Many of us get overwhelmed by stressful situations and say, "I can't do this." We live in a corrupt world that's controlled by Satan, its god, and he's set out to destroy us. But when we accept Jesus as our Savior, Jesus frees us from the devil's clutches, forgives our sins, and fills us with … Continue reading What I Can Do!
When It’s All Uphill!
We all have days when we face a seemingly impossible challenge. We don't have what we need to do what's set before us and we feel defeated. But as followers of Jesus, we know we have the victory when we give Him the problem, thank Him for the victory, and wait on Him for the … Continue reading When It’s All Uphill!
I Can Do Anything!
This world is getting darker every day. Laws, morals, personal rights, and social integrity have drastically changed in the last few years, and many of us wonder how we'll make it through today.

The Rough Times!
We won't be deceived by false Christian doctrines when we study the Bible to know the Truth. Apostle Paul said we can do all things through Christ, but he wasn't referring to personal goals or selfish desires. He meant that, as Christians, we'd face trying situations and must learn to rest in Him and not … Continue reading The Rough Times!
Twist and Shout!
As Christians, we follow Jesus and study the Bible to know Him and His will for us. Sadly, false teachers rise up, twist the Scriptures, and shout their demands to God, deceiving their followers into thinking they can do anything because of this mystical power. But God will not be mocked; He does not empower … Continue reading Twist and Shout!
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!
Tough Challenges
Sometimes, we get discouraged and want to give up when a challenge seems impossible. And it likely is on our own strength—but God! As Christians, God is with us in our daily walk and when we're helping, sharing, caring, and giving to others. He won't give us anything we can't handle (1 Cor. 10:13). So … Continue reading Tough Challenges
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
I Can Do It!
We're not Christian because we know about God or agree that Jesus is the world's Savior—even the demons believe that. We're Christian because we ACCEPT Jesus as our Lord and Savior, REPENT of our sins, COMMIT our lives and FOLLOW Him, and are FILLED with His Spirit. Then we STUDY the Bible, and His Spirit … Continue reading I Can Do It!
We Can Do It
As Christians, we know God is faithful and will never put us in a situation and leave us to work on our own. When we study the Bible to know Him and His Word and spend time in prayer and worship, we develop a relationship with Jesus, and our faith and hope are in Him. … Continue reading We Can Do It
I Can Do This!
We've all been in that situation and panicked, "I can't do this!" That's because we know we don't have what it takes to do it. But as Christians, our faith is in Jesus, our Lord! We live every day for Him, always ready and willing to share His love and salvation message with others. And … Continue reading I Can Do This!
Never Say, “I Can’t”
One of the most discouraging phrases we can hear or say is, "I can't." Many people won't even try to do a specific task if they think it's too challenging. As Christians, when we follow Jesus and do what He's told us to do, we "CAN" do what He's set before us even if we … Continue reading Never Say, “I Can’t”
What Can I Do?
As we look back on this year, many of us are burdened by the guilt of not doing what we'd promised to do. And as we look ahead to the new year, we're encouraged to make new resolutions and stand in the promises we'll make to ourselves. But as God's children, our focus should be … Continue reading What Can I Do?
Rise up in His Strength
Many Christians are afraid to step out of their "comfort zone"and share the gospel with others or take a stand for God. However, God hasn't given us a spirit of fear: He's given us HIS Spirit to equip us with all that we need to do what He has asked us to do. Apostle Paul … Continue reading Rise up in His Strength
Forever Young
As we look around us, we're almost convinced that life on this planet is really just for the young at heart. They have more zeal and energy and are able to recoup losses far greater than the more aged ones can, and that gives them an amazing vantage point in life. But it's a point that is deceiving … Continue reading Forever Young
