You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4 Most of us at one time have been to a circus or at least seen one on television. So, we’re familiar with the act of a lion and its trainer. But have you ever wondered why, besides holding a whip, the trainer would arm himself with a stool and point its legs toward th...  Read More

A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come hear you.

So, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart. Acts 2:46 When reading about the early church, you find out they would meet every day, corporately in the temple or from house to house. And when they met, the Bible tells us they would BREAK BREAD. They were taking communion and took it every day. ...  Read More

And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father.” Therefore, you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

Or even had the questions pop up in your head like, “If you are a Christian, why are yo...  Read More

Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for you. Jeremiah 32:17 When we think about our problems, we tend to see them as either big or small. Even when we pray for someone who is sick, we say things like, “You have a headache? No problem. Let us pray for your healing.” But if it is a life-threatening disease,...  Read More

Instead of your shame you shall have double honor, and instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore, in their land they shall possess double; everlasting joy shall be theirs. Isaiah 61:7 The bible most assuredly does teach that you will receive double for your trouble.

                                         BE STEADFAST IN THE FAITHBe sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same identical sufferings are appointed to your brotherhood throughout the world. 1 Peter 5:8-9Sometimes I think when we are resisting the devil, if we’re not caref...  Read More

Come unto Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28 It’s a joy to know that Jesus cares for us. He knows the worries and concerns we have about our families and futures. He knows and feels the heaviness in your heart and is aware of the sickness in your body. In the midst of all of it, He says to you, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and ...  Read More

For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; with favor You will surround him as with a shield. Psalm 5:12 Do you ever stop and think what and how you speak to your family members? It was a custom for the fathers of orthodox Jews on Friday evenings to lay his hands on his children and speak blessings over them. I wonder if there’s a connection to the fact that Jewish children grow up to be winners i...  Read More

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6:11  So many Christians think they need to fight the devil. But only because they aren’t aware of Colossians 2:15 and Romans 8:37. Those verses tell us that Jesus has already won the battle against the devil for us and given us the victory. Our responsibility now is to enforce the victory by sim...  Read More

Therefore, it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all.  This verse speaks of grace, which we know is undeserved, unearned and unmerited. We only qualify for it because of Jesus’ substitutional work on the cross on our behalf. Hav...  Read More

Then they said unto Him, what shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, this is the work of God, that ye believe on Him whom He hath sent.  John 6:28-29 If you have read this passage before, have you ever wondered what it meant to “work the works of God?” Many may have thought that it meant to pray more, fast more and bind the enemy. But that is not the a...  Read More
