The Power of Your Platform
on April 27th, 2025
Look, the Lamb of God! – John 1:36John the Baptist was a teacher and prophet who helped cast a vision that swept across Israel. He preached a message of repentance and prepared the way for Jesus. When he saw Jesus, he pointed others to Him by simply saying, “Look, the Lamb of God!” Two of his disciples heard this and began to follow Jesus.You may think, “I’m no spiritual teacher.” But if someone l...  Read More

Patient Endurance 
on April 26th, 2025
This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus. (Revelation 14:12)    In other words, don't give up, walk on, and trust God and His timing. All of “God's saints need to be patiently enduring.” As believers, we are called to trust God, even when we don't understand it. Do you see God doing things that you don’t understand? Does i...  Read More

Steps and Stops
on April 25th, 2025
The steps of a godly man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. (Psalm 37:23)    I love the story of A.T. Pearson, who was a great preacher of yesteryear. He had the privilege of opening the Bible of George Mueller, a great man of faith. In the early days of our country, Pearson raised millions of dollars to underwrite the care of orphans in his care.     When Pearson opened the Bi...  Read More

An Amazing God
on April 24th, 2025
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. (Ephesians 3:20) This is one of my all-time favorite verses in Scripture, because it reminds me how God works in ways above and beyond what my human mind can comprehend. Anything we could think up, dream up, or make up in our heads; He can surpass with His goodness and His g...  Read More

Giving God’s Way
on April 23rd, 2025
“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” (Luke 6:38)   Our giving to God should be described in several different phrases: From your heart, of your resources, through the church, to the Lord. There are many Scripture verses to support those phrases of ...  Read More

The Power You Haven't Tapped
on April 22nd, 2025
"For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body -- whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free -- and we were all given the one Spirit to drink." (1 Corinthians 12:13) Have you ever felt that disconnect between what you want God to do in your life and what's actually happening? I know I have. Just last week, I was fishing out on the lake, and my line kept getting tangled. No matter how carefully I...  Read More

A Call to Prayer
on April 21st, 2025
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. – 2 Chronicles 7:14 I like what Andrew Murray, a great prayer warrior of yesteryear, said: “Prayer is not so much getting from God. Rather, it is getting into the flow of where God is going.” ...  Read More

When You Need Hope 
on April 20th, 2025
After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb… The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.  He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.  Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead ...  Read More

Stand for the Truth 
on April 19th, 2025
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, (2 Timothy 3:16)   When we live in a culture that has decided to go by its playbook, rather than God's plan, we find ourselves upside down. Unfortunately, we think we are right-side-up. Our children and grandchildren are being inoculated by our culture and our media, with everything that i...  Read More

It Is Finished
on April 18th, 2025
Later, knowing that everything had now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”  A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus’ lips. When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. (John 19:28-30) The...  Read More

Conversion and Conversation
on April 17th, 2025
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

(Romans 10:9-10)  There are two things that need to be true of your life in order to truly know the Lord.  The first is that you must have a...  Read More

Are You Ready?
on April 16th, 2025
Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9) “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 7:21) Let me ask you a question. “If Jesus came today, are you ready?” Has there been a moment in ...  Read More
