THE NIGHT JESUS VISITED – VERY SPECIAL
It was the night Jesus came and all through the house, not a person was praying, not one in the house .. The Bible was left on the shelf without care, for no one thought Jesus would come there .. The children were dressing to crawl into bed, not once ever...
Fingerprints of God…
Fingerprints of God "From one man he created all the nations throughout the whole earth. He decided beforehand when they should rise and fall, and he determined their boundaries. His purpose was for the nations to seek God and perhaps feel their way towards him-though...
Wise Men Still Seek Him
Messiah was to be born in Bethlehem: “But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah (Ephrathah was the district in which Bethlehem was located) are only a small village among all the people of Judah. Yet a ruler of Israel will come from you, one whose origins are from the distant...
The Lamb of God is also A Lion
Let’s continue with prophecies about Jesus in the Old Testament, and how they were fulfilled… Messiah’s bones were not to be broken: “Each Passover lamb must be eaten in one house. Do not carry any of its meat outside, and do not break any of its bones.” Exodus 12:46...
Messianic Prophecies and Their Fufillment
From now up until Christmas, I think we’ll look at some of the prophecies made about Jesus in the Old Testament, and how those prophecies were fulfilled in the New Testament. You’ll definitely be blessed as you look up these prophecies yourself. You may have a...
Jesus is in the House
Jesus Is in the House Once there was this very wealthy young man. He lived in a great, elaborate house with dozens of rooms. Each room was more comfortable and more beautiful than the one before it. There were paintings and sculptures. Crystal chandeliers, golden...
It's Time for a Change…
“So we have stopped evaluating others from a human point of view. At one time we thought of Christ merely from a human point of view. How differently we know him now. This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new...
Upside of Adversity
Honestly, life sometime sucks (excuse my French)! “Why are there so many tears and fears? Why is there so much pain and sorrow? Why? Why? Why?”“For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and...
A Rhema Word…
Last night as I was praying, I was led to open my Bible to a certain book and chapter. It simply amazes me…God already knows what we’re going to say to Him before we even open our mouths. 2 Corinthians Chapter 7 was so relevant to what I was praying…I believe it was...
A Lesson in Being Fearless…
Today we’ll talk about David and Goliath. Yesterday at church, we received a really encouraging message. I’m going to share it with you, but with my own twist… God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. The story begins in 1 Samuel 17. In summary, the...
So Much Truth
I’d like to share these words from Jesus… “To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given, and they will have an abundance of knowledge. But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them.”...
Getting to the Bottom Line…
Wow! We are almost finished with Ecclesiastes. I have learned along with you. We’ll finish chapters 11 and 12 because they cover the same theme. Let us remember: Solomon wrote Ecclesiastes as a book of regrets. He is now an old man looking back on his life, and...
Ecclesiastes ~ Chapter 10
In Chapter 10 of Ecclesiastes, Solomon warns us about foolishness in four different areas in life: foolishness in the little things, foolishness in leadership, foolishness in the workplace, and foolishness in our language…“Don’t sweat the small stuff” is not a...
Forgiven and Set Free
We will finish Ecclesiastes in the next few days, but today I’m going to pour out my heart and tell you about Post Abortion Syndrome (PAS). It seemed like the best decision back then…it was a quick solution…besides, my life was just getting started and my whole future...
Let's Talk About What Nobody Wants to Talk About…
I’m sure you’ve heard that there are two things that never change…death and taxes! In Chapter 9, Solomon confronts the reality of death.“The same destiny ultimately awaits everyone, whether righteous or wicked, good or bad, ceremonially clean or unclean, religious or...
Living Life With Humility…
There is one word that sums up Ecclesiastes Chapter 8…Humility Learning humility is a lifelong process. Humility is living with what you don’t like. That statement really strikes a chord within me… To go from being healthy, active, and independent to being dependent...
More Wisdom
“Better to be criticized by a wise person than to be praised by a fool. A fool’s laughter is quickly gone, like thorns crackling in a fire. This is also meaningless.” Ecclesiastes 7: 5-6 Think of someone giving you a compliment…an insincere compliment. Those who...
He is Faithful…
It’s Thursday late night, and I am suffering with a very bad cold. This will be very short…Over the last few days I have had the privilege of crossing paths in the “blogosphere” with a woman who had been diagnosed with stage four Breast Cancer, and how God intervened...
