Many of us want to succeed independently in this world. However, its agenda prefers that we put our trust in someone or something that it controls, and for Christians, that often conflicts with our beliefs and values. We must remember that, although the devil is aggressively pushing his evil agenda, Jesus has already overcome it … Continue reading Directing Trust

Our Greatest Privilege
Christianity is more than believing that Jesus is the Lord and Savior. James 2:19 states that even the demons believe, but they don't honor, worship, obey, or serve Him. Accepting Jesus as our Savior is the initial step in believing, but we must then study the Bible so that God's laws and ways are embedded … Continue reading Our Greatest Privilege
Our Only Hope!
Many Christians lose faith in God when this evil world gets loud and aggressive. And it's getting worse every day. But God's Word stands true, and He WILL keep us safe when our trust is in Him, not in the world. We must study the Bible to get His Word deep into our hearts and … Continue reading Our Only Hope!
Our Strength and Hope!
Christianity is not a religion; it's a personal relationship with Jesus. It's accepting Him as God's Son who came to earth to die on the cross for our sins, and who was raised from the grave to give us eternal life—and committing to Him by studying the Bible. He is our Lord who watches over … Continue reading Our Strength and Hope!
Displaced Faith!
Many people come to Jesus and accept Him as their Savior but depend on others to teach them the Bible. Since the Bible is God's Word to us, collectively and personally, we MUST read it ourselves to get His Truth into our hearts and minds. We can NOT rely on others to teach us because … Continue reading Displaced Faith!
Peace With God
Religion is believing in "a" god that requires some effort to ensure a prosperous life now and an eternal future. Christianity is NOT a religion; it's a relationship with Jesus! It's knowing that God in Heaven is Holy and that through the fall of Adam, we ALL became sinners, eternally separated from Him. It's knowing … Continue reading Peace With God
You Can’t Buy Faith
To all Christians who think they can buy God's blessings, have faith dumped on them, or instantly gain wisdom and riches, you can't! You can't buy, earn, or assume His blessings because they are given by God to those who love and follow Him and put their faith and trust in Him. And you can … Continue reading You Can’t Buy Faith
Faith in Who?
Many Christians say they have faith. Yet, they don't study their Bibles to know God and think that "confessing" their faith gives them the power to get things from God. But Christian faith isn't instant when we get saved; it comes by studying the Bible and building a relationship with Jesus. It's knowing who God … Continue reading Faith in Who?
Peace and Joy
As Christians, we need to be like little children. They don't let hardships steal their joy; they stay hopeful and trust their parents to make everything right. Our Heavenly Father loves us, and we must keep our hope in Him, especially during trying times. But to get that hope, we must study the Scriptures to … Continue reading Peace and Joy
My Heart Belongs to God
Although our world is changing and not for the good, most of us can still go to the Lord in our quiet room and pray to Him and praise Him for His love and mercy toward us. We may be surrounded by chaos and unrest, but we can still seek His face every day and … Continue reading My Heart Belongs to God
The Peace of God
Jesus told us many times not to be afraid, but how do we conquer fear when we are living in a world that is filled with so much unrest? We take our eyes off of the world and focus on Jesus, the One who died for us and freed us from the clutches of sin … Continue reading The Peace of God
