I have really enjoyed helping to plan out and put into action VBS this year. Tomorrow is the last day of our day camp before the summer bash Saturday. It has just been a blast with these kids. It really has rekindled my flame for children's ministry. I really pray for an anointing with working...

1 Corinthians9:24,26 - "Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fit I, not as one that beateth the air." WHEN YOU'VE GOT THE WORD OF GOD HIDDEN ON THE INSIDE OF YOU AND THAT WORD IS...

Acts 5:19-20 [19] But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth(from captivity), and said, [20] Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life. “...the Lord by night opened the prison doors,” then He gave a command “Go, stand and...

“But His word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones; I was weary of holding it back, And I could not.” Jer 20:9 “When a fire is kept shut off from a draft for some length of time, it will become extinguished. This is as true in the realm of moral and spiritual forces as in...

Awake and arise, for you have slumbered long enough on the bed of disappointment, rejection, pain, and abandonment. He will cause you to want to live, to declare the glory of the Lord your God in the land of this living. Cast aside everything that holds you back, whether it is a broken dream, a...

"Your dead will live; their corpses will rise. You who lie in the dust, awaken and shout for joy, for your dew is as the dew of the dawn, and the earth will give birth to the departed spirits." - Isaiah 26:19 Let's awaken out of sleep, out of prisons, out of old mindsets, and out of old...

NECESSARY CHARACTER TRAITS IN SAINTS It is very important that we heed the Apostle’s words in our text, “Seeing, then, that all these things are to be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness?” We hope to be copies of God’s dear Son. He had the...

Having passed beneath the first vail we pass beyond the spiritual divide and enter into the “holy or spirit begotten condition, hence forth we are no longer recognized according to the flesh, but as new creatures in Christ Jesus. Such, as the apostle explains, are forthwith in THE SCHOOL OF...

"...For the Lord Almighty will care for His flock,.......Together they will be like warriors in battle trampling their enemy into the mud of the streets. They will fight because the Lord is with them, and they will put the enemy horsemen to shame." - (NIV) The Father is calling out, "Who will...

Luke 3:16-17 - "John answered and said to them all, "As for me, I baptize you with water; but One is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to untie the thong of His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire." Now the question is, who will burn in this generation? Who...

Ephesians 2:17-19 - "And He came and preached peace to you who were far away, and peace to those who were near; for through Him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's...

"So may all Your enemies perish, Lord! But may all who love You be like the sun when it rises in its strength..." - Judges 5:31 There is a rising coming for the Body of Christ – a rising within Him, in His ways and in His love to be free in Christ. We are rising up in the glory of the Son. A...

Some further thoughts to ponder, If indeed “Hell” and “Hades” are what the majority of Christians believe they are, viz. a place of fire and brimstone of endless torment, why then did Job pray to God, “Oh that in Hades thou wouldst hide me! That thou wouldst keep me secret until the turn of...

Another text supposedly to teach the doctrine of Hell as a place of fire and eternal torment is, Matt 13: 41, 42 “The Son of man shall send forth his angels (Servants or messengers, begotten of his spirit), and they shall gather out of his kingdom ALL THINGS (errors, falsehoods, deceptions)...

Stars seem pretty permanent don’t they? One generation goes and another arrives and there they still are, exactly as described before for hundreds of years. Yet all this is merely an illusion of permanence that doesn’t exist. The truth is that stars have lifetimes just as humans do but their...

1 Kings 19:10 - And he said, "I have been very zealous for the Lord, the God of hosts; for the sons of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, torn down Thine altars and Killed Thy prophets with the sword. And I alone am left; and they seek my life, to take it away." MUCH OF ELIJAH'S DISCOURAGEMENT...

"If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in safe country, how will you manage in the thickets by the Jordan?" - Jeremiah 12:5 NIV Have you been stumbling? Have you been stumbling with the footmen? Well the Lord is wanting to...

If interested, please, read part one first. Bel and the dragon: "Now Daniel had commanded his servants to bring ashes, and those they strewed throughout all the temple in the presence of the king alone: then went they out, and shut the door, and seal it with the king's signet, and so departed...

The narrative of bel (14:1–22) is a folk tale ridiculing worship. In it, the king asks Daniel "Do you not think that Bel is a living god? Do you not see how much he eats and drinks every day?" Daniel proves through a ruse that the sacred meal of bel is actually consumed at night by the seventy...

There is supernatural power released in the Word of God through declaration. Jesus said (Mark 11:23) in the letter to the Hebrews (Hebrews 10:23) that we are encouraged to hold fast our confession. Once we have released our faith in the command of faith or the prayer of faith, we must continue...
