The Seven Churches
on March 23rd, 2024
“The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lampstands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.” (Revelation 1:20) In the second and third chapters of Revelation, John describes each of the seven churches mentioned in this book of the Bible. The members of each church were in very diff... Read More

When God Repeats Himself
on March 22nd, 2024
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. (John 10:27) As a pastor, I sometimes repeat myself when I’m preaching. In good communications, you tell people the truth, then you remind them of what you told them, and finally, you tell them again, in case they forgot. Repetition is key if you want to remember something. You need to expose yourself to the information over and over ag... Read More

Every Knee Will Bow
on March 21st, 2024
At the name of Jesus, every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:10-11) Scripture is very clear that a day will come when every single person on this planet will bow down to Jesus and declare that He is Lord over everything. This means every Muslim, every Jew, every Buddh... Read More

Fathers Loving Mothers
on March 20th, 2024
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her…husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church. (Ephesians 5:25, 28-29) When Paul was writing to the church in Ephesus, he was giving them clear instru... Read More

Simply Follow Christ
on March 19th, 2024
Jesus answered, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me.” (John 21:22) In one of Christ’s post-resurrection appearances, He was alone on the shore where He had first called His fishermen. After the miraculous catch of Galilean fish, Simon Peter jumped out of the boat and hurried to the shore to be the first one with Jesus. You can almost feel the at... Read More

Time To Stop
on March 18th, 2024
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. – Psalm 23:2-3Many of us “go, go, go” all the time. Maybe that’s you. Maybe you feel the need to constantly be productive, getting as much done as you can in your waking hours. But have you ever been forced to lie down and stop? Maybe you had to sto... Read More

God Is Our Provider
on March 17th, 2024
“And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus” - Philippians 4:19God is in the business of providing your needs. That may include food, water, and shelter, which are basic needs for survival. And it also may include the restoration of your spirit in the midst of brokenness. We need to remember that our God is our Provider. I love what Paul writes in Phil... Read More

Blessing Your Children
on March 16th, 2024
Then Jacob called for his sons and said: “Gather around so I can tell you what will happen to you in days to come…Your father’s blessings are greater than the blessings of the ancient mountains,” (Genesis 49:1, 26) If you are a father, or you hope to be a father someday, God wants you to bless your children. More important than providing for them financially and physically, He wants you as a fath... Read More

Your Heavenly Father
on March 15th, 2024
Sing to God, sing in praise of his name, extol him who rides on the clouds; rejoice before him – his name is the Lord. A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families, he leads out the prisoners with singing, but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land. (Psalm 68:4-6) Father’s Day can be a tough day for many of us. If you didn’t gr... Read More

Be Still
on March 14th, 2024
“Be still and know that I am God.” (Psalm 46:10) Finding peace and quiet in the midst of our crazy and sometimes chaotic lives can seem nearly impossible. Between school, work, church, family, friends, hobbies, and errands; it is difficult to make time for a full eight hours of sleep, much less make time to be still while you are awake. We tend to think that if we are not moving or doing something... Read More

A Hand of Blessing
on March 13th, 2024
When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.” (Revelation 1:17-18) When we were growing up, many of us longed for the hand of blessing from our father. We wanted him to say to us, “G... Read More

Praying Friends
on March 12th, 2024
For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you... (Colossians1:9) Thank the Lord for friends who pray! There is no doubt about it; we don’t know who has been praying for us, unless they happen to mention it. That’s what the apostle Paul was doing. His statement was a controlled leak which encouraged the people by praying for them. To hear that someone is p... Read More
