Standing, Sitting and Kneeling… When are we suppose to stop standing up for what is right? When do we stop doing the right thing and turn it all over to God? Who are God’s Ambassadors here on Earth? If we stand down and simply state something like “It’s all in God’s hands?” what role do we play? Why would God make us in His image, then send His only begotten Son to teach us about healing, how to heal and why? Would the alcoholic get saved if there weren’t another…

When Will We Hear… Jesus Christ, the Lord of All, speaks to us throughout the day and night, but we rarely, if ever, hear. Why is this?

F.E.A.R. False Evidence Appearing Real – Fear What does wisdom do for us? Where does our desire to learn originate? What should we do with a vast amount of knowledge? What is worthy of knowing and worthy of ignoring? For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”~I Corinthians 1:18-19 NKJB Throughout…

“A Good Product”… How many leeper’s have you met this week? Did you sit down with any? What about making an attempt to know them as a person or understand how they became so “unclean”? We are all unclean. There is no “product” that can clean our uncleanliness. Only the blood of Jesus Christ can wash our souls clean and forgive our sins. Nothing else. We have to know we are completely powerless over our lives and our lives are 100% unmanageable without forgiveness through grace and have the humility…

In the first Book of John chapter 2, John addresses the people he is speaking with as “little children”, not just children, but little children. This is interesting language considering he is speaking with people in the early to mid 20’s and some, no doubt, are much older. This language probably caught the attention right away and these men likely began listening intently to what was being said. When reading this most people, likely, perk up…

Walk By The Spirit… Having made mention of our feelings about the Apostle Paul on a number of occasions, it is not uncommon to remind the readers we respect and look to Paul’s teachings as our experience is a reflection of his trials, tribulations and rebirth. The past few days have seen great change not only in our house but in our world. The confusion by some people is easy to explain, with other people it is a little more challenging. When we walk in the Spirit our flesh is…
