A Helpful Mini-Sermon
Take Jesus’ hand and break the chains that bind. I often hear whispers from God. Recently we were singing in church about how Jesus has broken every chain. Indeed He has! He has broken the chains of death, sin, and destruction. He has broken the chains of our own personal sin (pride, lust, sexual sin,…
We Are the Church
Today I just want to thank God for His gift of salvation. It is very personal to me, and I hope to you, as well. Thank You Jesus for saving me to the uttermost! Salvation is not just make it to Heaven, or so I could go to church for an hour on Sundays,…
Our God-Built Home
As Christians we read in the Bible that “We are convinced that even if these bodies we live in are folded up at death like tents, we will still have a God-built home that no human hands have built, which will last forever in the heavenly realm.” ~~ 2 Corinthians 5:1 (TPT). We may inwardly sigh…
A Wonderful Way for a Christian to View Death
A sick man turned to his doctor as he was preparing to leave the examination room and said, “Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side.” Very quietly, the doctor said, “I don’t know.” “You don’t know? You’re a Christian, and don’t know what’s on the other side?” The…
When to Meet for Church
I love to meet with other believers multiple times every week. But when did the early followers of “The Way” meet? It would be only natural for Jesus’ followers to meet on the day of His resurrection — the First Day of the Week (which was the very center of their belief; and even today…
On Christ, the Solid Rock, I Stand!
The Solid Rock of the Christian’s life is Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord! He is the strong foundation upon which our lives are built. Jesus is the anchor to our souls (our thinking, our will, and our emotions). The Holy Bible teaches that the anointing of CHRIST is within us. Otherwise we would be…
Are You Going “Back to Fishing?”
Do you remember when Jesus told His disciples: “There is so much more I want to tell you, but you cannot bear it now”? (John 16:12). Jesus’ disciples were not offended to hear this because they recognized that they needed to absorb so much more from their Teacher, and Jesus knew that He would soon…
Traits of a True Leader
Relational Authority: Authentic Leadership, a book written by Clay Nash is so insightful — pointing out important qualities of leadership and authority. 1. Forerunner A leader is a person who moves ahead first. Hebrews 6:20 reads: “Where the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of…
Purity of Heart & Mind
God’s plan is for us to have pure hearts, motives, and desires. There is no room in our beings for corruption, sinful intentions, compromise, lying, or deceit. King David wrote in Psalms 51:10: “Create me a clean, heart, O God.” In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus Christ taught “Blessed are the pure in heart,…
Lessons from Psalms 62
Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him. Truly he is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress, I will never be shaken. How long will people assault me? Throwing me down— this leaning wall, this tottering fence? Surely they intend to topple me from my lofty place; they…
God Whispers; but Are We Listening?
As illustrated in the biblical story of the prophet Elijah, who heard God not in the wind, earthquake, or fire, but in a “gentle whisper” or “still small voice,” the whisper of God is an invitation to intimacy that offers us clarity, peace, wisdom, and guidance amidst the noise of our daily lives. Hearing His…
Deuteronomy 28:9-11
Praise God for these promises. Give God all the glory for His favor and Abundant Blessings!
The Fourth Quarter of Life
ORU’s business professor emeritus Dr Henry Migliore wrote a book on living in the 4th quarter of our lives. He wrote: “Games are won or lost depending upon your drive to succeed after middle age.” Many of us are in this 4th quarter of life. Yet inside we feel like we are still young and…
Do You Have Challenges?
For several years now I have experienced what some would say are “more than his share of challenges” Many others have, as well Have you, too? But hopefully we all are choosing to continue to walk by faith and allow our character to grow as God prepares us for even greater opportunities ahead. When God…
