Giving and Serving
on April 30th, 2024
For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. (2 Corinthians 5:14) I love the story of Hudson Taylor when he was interviewing possible candidates for missionary work. During the interview process, he asked each of these young people, “Why do you want to become a missionary?” One of them answered, “I just want to be a missionary because the... Read More

Be The Church
on April 29th, 2024

And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved." - Acts 2:46-47Going to church for many people means showing up for the services, listening to the sermons, and maybe talking to a f...

A Salvation Moment
on April 28th, 2024
"For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God." - Ephesians 2:8It’s sad how so many people in our world today have misunderstood salvation, thinking it is a gradual process or something achieved through our own good deeds. But true salvation happens in a singular, transformative moment. It's not about being baptized, attending church, or bei... Read More

Hope in Trials
on April 27th, 2024
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9) What are you walking through right now? What circumstances are you facing? What trials and tests are you experiencing? As you answer these questions, are you wondering why y... Read More

God Has a Plan for Your Life
on April 26th, 2024
Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand. (Proverbs 19:21) God has a plan for your life, no matter how you have botched it in the past. Read that again. Simon Peter had a journey from fisherman to follower, from the one who had spiritual insight, to the one who was a coward denying the Lord, to the one who would be the leader of the apostolic ba...

Surrender Your Life to Christ
on April 25th, 2024
Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her. (John 20:17-18) The resurrection experience that these women had was very po... Read More

The Triumphal Entry
on April 24th, 2024
The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest heaven!” When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?” The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.” (Matthew 21:9-11) In the Palm Sunday triumphal entry pass...

Powerful Prayers and a Burden
on April 23rd, 2024
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. (James 5:16-17) Have you ever listened to someone pray and thought, “Wow, that was a power-packed p... Read More

One Day You Will Give An Account
on April 22nd, 2024
So then each of us will give an account of himself to God. – Romans 14:12Each of us carries the weight of accountability before God. It's a sobering truth that every soul will one day stand before Him to give an account of their life—every word spoken, every thought entertained, and every action taken.Yet, those who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ can rest assured. Through faith, we are en... Read More

Experiencing Grace
on April 21st, 2024
Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. – James 4:8Experiencing grace is not always a grand, emotionally charged event. Rather, it is a profound spiritual encounter with God, orchestrated in His perfect timing and manner. When we are open to hearing the message of the gospel preached clearly, the Spirit of God begins a transformative work within us. It's as if He gently nudges our hearts, ... Read More

Coming Home
on April 20th, 2024
But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. – Luke 15:32 I grew up in a family where I had three sisters, one who was nine years older than me, and two who were younger. After I got saved, I shared Jesus with my sisters because I wanted them all to know Christ. The sad story was that one of my little sisters got involve... Read More

Believing The Truth About Yourself
on April 19th, 2024
A person may think their own ways are right, but the Lord weighs the heart. (Proverbs 21:2) Chuck Colson wrote a book, Born Again. He got saved in the midst of the Watergate fiasco and served time in prison. God saved him and put him on a path to being a blessing to many people. One of my good friends was his pastor. Colson said in his book that the problem with President Nixon was that he cou... Read More
