Be Not Faithless, But Believing

Be Not Faithless, But Believing

Mark 16:14 Later as they were eating, Jesus appeared to the eleven and rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen. The Word of God tells us that the hardhearted person is a person who refuses to believe the Word of God. These eleven disciples refused to believe because they had not seen with their own eyes. But Jesus tells us, just like He told Thomas, "be not faithless, but believing." We must

Dream Again

Dream Again

Philippians 3: 13-14 ...but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. Do you feel like you just can't win with the hand you've been dealt? Maybe you lost your husband or your wife, your children, your home, your job, you may even feel like you're about to lose your mind. Sometimes things seem to come crashing d

What Are You Saying?

What Are You Saying?

Mark 11:22-23 (NKJV) So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. What are you saying? Jesus tells us to believe that the things we say will come to pass. "I'm broke", I'm coming down with something." "It's always something." "I'm sick and tired." "I c

Don't Quit!

Don't Quit!

James 1:2-4 (MSG) Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don’t try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way. If you're in the midst of a storm, you may think the easiest thing to do to make this all go away is to simply quit. Quit school, quit going

He Is Your Life!

He Is Your Life!

Colossians 3:1-5 (MSG) So if you’re serious about living this new resurrection life with Christ, act like it. Pursue the things over which Christ presides. Don’t shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with the things right in front of you. Look up, and be alert to what is going on around Christ—that’s where the action is. See things from his perspective. Your old life is dead. Your new life, which is your real life—even though invisible to spectators—is with Christ in Go

Write the Check!

Write the Check!

John 7:37-39 (NLT) On the last day, the climax of the festival, Jesus stood and shouted to the crowds, “Anyone who is thirsty may come to me! Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.’”(When he said “living water,” he was speaking of the Spirit, who would be given to everyone believing in him. But the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet entered into his glory.) Are you feeli

We Teach and God Blesses

We Teach and God Blesses

Psalm 127:3 Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him. Proverbs 14:26 Those who fear the Lord are secure; he will be a refuge for their children. Early in our marriage, Pastor AJ and I learned that this life we live is not about us. As selfish as we were, I am so thankful that we put our fleshly desires aside for the sake of our children. As important as you may think you are, SURPRISE!, the adversary doesn't even want you, he wants the next generation. He

Always Pray and Never Give Up!

Always Pray and Never Give Up!

Luke 18:1-8 (NLT) One day Jesus told his disciples a story to show that they should always pray and never give up. “There was a judge in a certain city,” he said, “who neither feared God nor cared about people. A widow of that city came to him repeatedly, saying, ‘Give me justice in this dispute with my enemy.’ The judge ignored her for a while, but finally he said to himself, ‘I don’t fear God or care about people, but this woman is driving me crazy. I’m going to see that sh

God Sees Us As Good

God Sees Us As Good

Psalms 8:3-5 (NLT) When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers — the moon and the stars you set in place— what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them? Yet you made them only a little lower than God and crowned them with glory and honor. Almighty God loves us and adores us. We are His great creation. We may wish we looked one way or another. Lighter, darker, taller, thinner, etc. But God sees us as

The Set Time

The Set Time

Psalms 102:13 (King James) Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come. The set time! "Set time" in Hebrew is descried as meaning: 1) Appointed place, appointed time, meeting 2) Sacred season, set feast, appointed season "Appointed" means a pre-determined or set appointment. In a set time, the Lord will favor Zion! And that time has come! This is your set time to be favored of God! His loving kindness and mercy is extend
