The Will of God – Your Safe Place

“Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace: For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.”        Acts 18:9-10  KJV……….            I grew up in the 60’s and 70’s during some turbulent times, but it’s nothing…

The Culture of The Kingdom

“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”          ~   Romans 12:2 KJV  ……              I hear the word “culture” used a lot today.  It’s a current buzz word that’s being thrown around.  So just what…

Training Children

“And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.”        ~    Ephesians 6:4 NKJV ……….                      Many Christian parents don’t realize that it’s their job to train their children in the things of God.  Some think that it’s the job of the Church…

Do not be weak in faith!

“And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred year old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah’s womb.”                                   Romans 4:19  KJV                    I want to talk to you about weak faith.  So, what is weak faith?  This verse says that Abraham being not weak in…

We’ve been made ALIVE !

“And you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins.”         Ephesians 2:1 KJV……..              I like the use of the word quickened here and also in other New Testament passages.  The word quickened means to make alive.  The reason I like the use of the word quickened is because of the word picture it paints.  Have you ever cut your…

Beware of the offense trap!

“Take heed to yourselves: if thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.”       ~   Luke 17:3…..                     Notice this verse warns us to take heed to ourselves if someone trespasses against us.  So why would it say to take heed to yourself?  It’s very simple… because of offense.  Offense is a very…

Grace For Marriage

“Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.”     ~  1 Peter 3:7……               Peter in this verse, when talking about marriage, speaks about “the grace of life”.  There is a grace to…

Redeemed From The Curse!

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree.”        ~   Galatians 3:13  KJV……….                       As you celebrate Christmas this year it would be good to remember that Jesus came to redeem us from the curse.  As the Christmas song Joy To The…

Believing Prayer

“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.”        ~   Mark 11:24 KJV……                  Perhaps you’ve seen the sign that says, “Prayer Changes Things”.  The truth is it’s not just prayer that changes things, it’s believing prayer that…

Being a Servant of Jesus

“Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God.”        ~   Romans 1:1…….            Have you ever thought about what it means to be a servant?  Probably not.  Most people don’t think of themselves as servants.  They’d rather think of themselves being served.  No criticism intended,…
