My covenant I will not break, nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips. Psalms 89:34 I want to give you something to think about. When you read about a promise in the Word, do you take God at His Word? Or do you, like Abraham, ask, “Lord God, how shall I know that I will inherit it?” (Genesis 15:8) I would have thought possibly God would have reprimanded him for failing to take Him at His W...  Read More

“But one thing is needful: and Mary has chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” Luke 10:42 I would like for you to think about if Jesus were to come to your house. What would you do? Would you feel the need to serve Him. Or would you feel the need to sit down yourself and start drawing from Him.  You remember in Luke 10:38, Jesus came into the home of two sisters, Mary and ...  Read More

But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God and righteousness and sanctification and redemption. 1 Corinthians 1:30 What are we supposed to do when the devil accuses us of having done wrong and tells us that we don’t deserve God’s blessings? We are to point everything back to Jesus, who qualifies us for all of God’s blessings.  So when the devil says, “You are not righteo...  Read More

My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. 1 John 2:1 We need to know that Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father who not only is your High Priest, but also you Advocate. When the enemy comes to accuse you saying, “You have done wrong”. Jesus says, “Father, the enemy is righ...  Read More

And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.”  Exodus 3:14 Are you in the midst of a trying situation? Whether it is physical, emotional, financial or marital, the great I AM declares to you: “I AM TO YOU WHAT YOU NEED ME TO BE.” Do you need healing? He says, “I am the Lord who heals you (Exodus 15:26). And as you believe Me, you will see your healing manifest thirtyfold, sixtyfold and a hundredfold.” A...  Read More

My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh. (Proverbs 4:20-22) It’s such a blessing to know that God has given us an absolute way to receive answers to our problems and challenges. It is His Word. Every answer or solution we n...  Read More

For He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. Hebrews 13:5You remember when Jesus while hanging on the cross cried out, “My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken me?” (Matthew 27:45-46). For the first time, Jesus addressed His Father as “God.” The Father had forsaken the Son. As Judge of the universe, God had to turn His back on His Son, who was carrying the sins of the world. The Fat...  Read More

“And he said to him, Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours.”Luke 15:31God is such a good Father who always protects and provides for those who trust in Him. In remembering the parable of the prodigal son, (Luke 15:11-32) Jesus shared the parable to show how good our heavenly Father is. The wayward son had squandered his father’s inheritance before he decided to go home to ask h...  Read More

“And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased, and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some hundred” Mark 4:8Sometimes we’re amazed and excited to see God’s instantaneous healing miracles. When we’ve seen an instantaneous miracle, we immediately think that possibly God would do the same for us. But, when you see your own healing taking longer to manif...  Read More

And the Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward. But lift up your rod and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it.”  Exodus 14:15-16One thing the body of Christ is doing is praying. But so many of us are praying desperate prayers. We are praying, “God, help. God, please. God, do something about my problem.All of us at one time or another have p...  Read More

Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. 2 Peter 1:2If you desire to walk in a greater measure of God’s favor, this verse says that grace, which is the undeserved favor of God, and peace, can be multiplied to you. In the Hebrew, the word peace is “shalom”. Its definition includes wholeness, health, safety and provision. So, when you walk in divine favor a...  Read More
