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!
study the Bible
No Excuse For Ignorance!
Many Christians don't read their Bibles but rely on people or doctrines to teach them about God. One day, we'll all stand before God, and NO excuse will be accepted for our ignorance. God has given us the privilege to know Him AND the responsibility to study (2 Timothy 2:15, 3:16) and meditate on His … Continue reading No Excuse For Ignorance!
It’s Who Controls the Mind!
Technology is replacing knowledge and wisdom. Our Wi-Fi devices do the thinking for us, and many totally depend on them—on the god of this world who controls them. But Christians serve the God of Heaven, and to know Him, we must fill our hearts and minds with the knowledge and wisdom that God has given … Continue reading It’s Who Controls the Mind!
One Drop at a Time
Contrary to modern teaching, faith in God does not just happen when we become Christian. We aren't suddenly filled with faith that moves mountains. God does give each of us enough faith to believe that Jesus is the Savior so we can accept His salvation, but we have to study the Bible daily after that … Continue reading One Drop at a Time
How to Control the Weak
The world uses fear to control the weak and ignorant, so they'll surrender to its way of life. But as Christians, we don't succumb to the world's tactics or compromise our beliefs because we fear what people will think or say. We surrender to God and His plans for our lives and study the Bible … Continue reading How to Control the Weak
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
Grace is All We Need
Grace is getting something we don't deserve. We accepted Jesus as Savior because God's grace drew us to Him. His grace pardoned our sins, cleansed our hearts, and filled us with His Spirit. We're now part of God's Kingdom where there's no sin or sickness, and though we won't experience the fullness of His grace … Continue reading Grace is All We Need
Don’t Suffer Alone
Many Christians suffer through their problems alone. God is ready to help, but they won't ask Him because they either don't want to "bother" Him or assume He won't help. We must study the Bible to know God and fill up with His knowledge and wisdom. We are His children, and when problems come (big … Continue reading Don’t Suffer Alone
We Are NOT Alone!
Despite what we're going through in life, if we're Christian, we are not alone! Many of us suffer from pain, fear, and sorrow because we live in this sinful world, but Jesus has overcome the world and prepared a fantastic eternal future for all who believe in Him. And while we're still here, Jesus promised … Continue reading We Are NOT Alone!
If You Need Something…Ask
The Bible is our instruction book for life, but we need to study it AND apply it to be productive Christians. The more we learn, the closer to God we get, but as with any relationship, it goes two ways! Jesus talks to us through His word, and we speak to Him through prayer. We … Continue reading If You Need Something…Ask
Why Our Faith Doesn’t Work
We often hear Christians say, "Have faith." But faith in who? In what? Many brag about their faith, quote selected Scriptures, and repeat the same prayer—but nothing happens. Initially, God gave us the faith to believe that He is God and to realize that we are sinners and need to accept Jesus as our Savior, … Continue reading Why Our Faith Doesn’t Work
Keep the Oil in My Lamp
If you were lost at night in a forest without a light, you wouldn't see the path because of the darkness. Likewise, even as Christians, we'll continue to stumble in the darkness unless we keep our lamps filled with oil! The Bible IS that oil! It fills our lamps and allows the Light to shine … Continue reading Keep the Oil in My Lamp
How to Stand in Faith
Sometimes, we get discouraged when God doesn't answer our prayers right away, and we begin to speak words of doubt. This tells the worldly people around us that we don't really believe in God any more than they do. As Christians, we need to study the Bible to know God and build our faith in … Continue reading How to Stand in Faith
The Lord is Watching
It seems as if the world is falling apart all around us, but the truth is that God is still in control and takes care of us when we put our trust in Him. This is only the beginning of sorrows and it's going to get a lot worse because the devil knows his time … Continue reading The Lord is Watching
Why do I need the Bible?
It seems that there’s a trend happening today where many Christians feel it’s not necessary to have or read a Bible because they can hear from God without it. This can be dangerous when we assume that the voice we are hearing is God speaking to us. It’s not an option to ask, “Why do … Continue reading Why do I need the Bible?
Searching for a Happy Heart
Sometimes it feels almost impossible to be happy for two days in a row in this world. There is always something horrible going on somewhere that steals our joy. We are surrounded by people who are ill, people whose lives are falling apart or people who suffer from financial depression. And the global disasters are … Continue reading Searching for a Happy Heart
Lies and Deceit
The devil runs this world, and lies and deception are his greatest tools. He is so cunning that he can trick a Christian easily through the lust of the flesh if the person doesn’t study the Scriptures to know God’s will, and doesn't walk in the love and the knowledge and the wisdom God. Lies … Continue reading Lies and Deceit
Check Your Mouth at the Door
One of the most common faults that the people of the world find with Christians is the hypocrisy of their lifestyle. And often it's the mouth of the "Christian" that ruins their own reputation. For many new believers, they have come to the cross and accepted Christ as their Savior, but they forgot to also … Continue reading Check Your Mouth at the Door
Put on Your Dancing Shoes
It’s wonderful when we know the Lord and can enjoy life! The internet has made it possible to spend less time doing those tedious things such as banking, shopping and travelling to work, and given us more time to do what we like to do. Unfortunately, too many Christians have adopted a lazy attitude about God, … Continue reading Put on Your Dancing Shoes
The Mirror of Deceit
In today’s world we have a false “Christianity” spreading in epic proportions across the globe. Through both mega churches and smaller ministries there is a gospel of wealth and ease being taught as opposed to the gospel of Jesus. The consenting message is that the Christian life is easy and comes with abundant prosperity and … Continue reading The Mirror of Deceit
