Jesus said, "...Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed" (John 20:29).
How do we see hidden things? His Word tells us that when we turn to the Lord, the "veil" is removed from our eyes – from our hearts (2 Corinthians 3:16). As we turn our eyes to Jesus, He enables us to "see"...
Mark 3:27 NLT - "For who is powerful enough to enter the house of a strong man like satan and plunder his goods? Only someone even stronger someone who could tie him up and then plunder his house" (Matthew 12:29).
Christ in you is the one who is stronger and able to overcome. This is not the...
If a new believer does not change his friends, his spiritual future is bound to be shallow and weak.
It is impossible for a Christian to have many worldly friends if he truly loves the Lord and serves Him faithfully. The Lord Jesus is the Friend of sinners, not the sinners' friend -- He came to...
It's difficult to stumble when we're on our knees. The battle belongs to the Lord. Therefore, the defeat of the enemy is in His hands. (Judges 15:8; I Samuel 22:1; I Kings 19:9)
Sometimes SILENCE is the greatest weapon of all, allowing the contender to exhaust himself shadowboxing, while we...
Luke 11:13, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him."
In the story of the prodigal son, where the father killed the fattened calf and gave the returned son the signet ring and the...
Some, overlooking the fact that God is just as well as loving, have arranged a theory for the ultimate eternal salvation of all men; and, anxious to hold their theory, they are in danger of neglecting the Scriptural doctrine of a second or everlasting death, for which there is no sacrifice and...
If there is to be a second, it implies that there has been a first. Not only so, but the second must be like or similar to the first, or it would not be a second. Neither an apple nor a pear would be a second peach; so, the second death, like the first, must be a cessation of life or being. The...
Stand firm and do not be moved! As believers, we are rooted and grounded in His magnificent love. Because Jesus overwhelms our heart as we meditate on His love flowing into our heart so that we can nourish the lives of others with it, we are established in His love and we can have a peace...
"If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me." - Luke 9:23
Each of us, as born-again Believers, have a promised land for our lives. God's promises are the key to us understanding and entering into the vision that God has given us.
If...
To secure our attention and place us on the pathway God desires, there are strategies that He employs that are very effective. As much as we are not to be ignorant of satan's devices (2 Cor. 2:11), we must be even more knowledgeable of the ways of the Lord (Ps. 25:4). Knowing God's ways will...
Colossians 2:9,10 - "For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority."
Does that sound like a description of some pitiful, poor weakling that can barely make ends meet?
No...
Luke 4:18 - "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me."
Believe God is bringing us to a place where we know that the Spirit of the Lord is upon us. God wants to bring us to the fact of what Jesus said in John 14: "I will ask the Father, and he will give you another helper who will be with you...
"I was asleep but my heart was awake, A voice! My beloved was knocking" - Song of Solomon 5:2
THE KEY COMPONENTS OF CREATIVE PRAYER ARE:
Passion – Immersion – Revelation – Creativity
1. The best way to prepare for His revelation is to: immerse yourself in Scriptures concerning the topic at...
We Must Burn Brighter!
There are many in the Body of Christ who must learn to trim their wicks in order to burn brighter than before. We have settled for a tiny flame while complaining about the invasive darkness. We have been waiting on the invitation for influence, while missing our...
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to His great mercy, He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." - 1 Peter 1:3
The Lord is redefining His Church and calling them out of a place of stagnancy and...
Matthew 14:28 - "And Peter answered him, "Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water." He said, "Come." So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus."
Sometimes in our own minds we justify waiting in the boat, not realizing it is just our natural mind...
"...He has granted to us His precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature..." - 2 Peter 1:4
Promises from God are met with contradiction in the natural realm. God is announcing a reality to you that will most likely appear very distant...
Many Christians live from a view that God is in Heaven and we are knocking at His door. This could not be further from the truth. Jesus said to His disciples I am now with you but I shall be IN YOU.
If we are really His then He is in us. Now we are living from the newness of life standpoint...
Matthew 3:13-17 - 13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan [River], to be baptized by him. 14 But John tried to prevent Him [vigorously protesting], saying, “It is I who need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?” 15 But Jesus replied to him, 'Permit it just now; for this is...
Before we were saved, worldly objects and affairs usurped the place of Christ in our lives. Then, after we were saved, spiritual objects and affairs began to occupy what should have been Christ's place.
But God's purpose is to lead us to see the place that Christ should have in our lives --...
