Be Loving
on July 2nd, 2023
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. (1 Peter 4:8)If we want to live a life that honors God, we need to be loving. This verse makes it clear by saying, “Above all, love each other deeply.” This is easier said than done because many people have personalities that just don’t seem to mesh with ours.It is easy to be loving in a general sense. “I just love ev...  Read More

What Love!
on July 1st, 2023
“My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?” (Matthew 27:46)In those moments on the cross, Jesus felt abandoned by God. Think about that. When we trust God, and become His children, He promises never to forsake us, and always to be with us. Jesus’ death, though, is the one time in history when that promise was not applied. Why? On the cross, the spotless Lamb of God took all our sins upon Himself. ...  Read More

Go All in for Christ
on June 28th, 2023
Because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth. (Revelation 3:16)  It saddens me that many believers just sit back and say, “I like the information.” They just sit there like bumps on a log. They hear the Word of God, and they identify themselves as disciples of Christ. They don't apply the Word of God to their lives. They live just like the Laodicean Church. The L...  Read More

Aligning with Christ
on June 24th, 2023
Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” (John 20:21)    Appearing behind locked doors, Jesus shows His scars to the disciples. Before He does, He speaks to calm their fears, and give them a holy directive. Two different times, He says, “Peace be with you!” Think of that for a moment. We must be calm and at peace before we can align with His purpose. When...  Read More

When God Repeats Himself
on June 22nd, 2023
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

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.
