Nobody wants to wait. I want my Whopper and fries within 5 minutes, and I don’t want to wait in line at the grocery store. I sometimes even go through the self-checkouts just to avoid the lines with the real human checkers at the registers. Our time is precious to us we think, but there are times when we just have to wait. One is when a baby is born. It takes 9 months, whether we like it or not……
The Old King James Bible sometimes uses quaint words that pack power. During King Hezekiah’s reign over Israel and Judah, he desired that the people would revive themselves in honoring the Lord. He sent messages to all his people saying, “Turn again unto the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and He will return to the remnant of you, that are escaped out of the hand of the kings of Assyria…Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were,…..
How do you guide your children through this world and have them be successful in God’s eyes? Deuteronomy 6:5-7 tells us, “And thou shalt love the LORD thy God, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou…..
Do you wanna know how God operates? Read His Word. Isaiah 46:9-11 says this: “Remember the former things of old, for I am God, and there is none like me. Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:… I have spoken it. I will also bring it to pass: I have purposed it, I will also do it.” (KJV)……
Are you living in fear, sickness, defeat, or unbelief? Are you believing the lies of the enemy more than the Book of God’s Words? The Bible is chock full of wisdom, power and truth. These are the very Words of God and Jesus that have been spoken through them directly, and by anointed men who have heard them speak. The more you ‘tune in’ to God’s channel, the more you will be living in faith, health, and victory. Choose as…..
When things are going awry, it is very easy to blame God. We forget that we have an enemy that wants to “steal, kill, and destroy” (John 10:10, KJV), and that we have a Master who wants to bring us abundant life. Jesus also said that He came not to condemn the world, but to save it (John 3:17). These two scriptures alone plus all the GOOD that Jesus did while on the earth should be enough to convince us…..
It’s almost spring! That means it’s time to get the soil ready for seed. You must plow it, till it, and break up the clods. It’s the same in your life, because your heart must be plowed, tilled, and broken up so that you can receive the Word of God. He wants good loamy ground, not all clay or sand, so that when the Word is planted, it can grow healthy plants whose roots can grow deep and wide to…..
Little children mimic the adults who raise them. We are models of behavior to our children, and need to be aware of how powerful this truth is when considering how to conduct our lives. In the same way, we are God’s children, and need to mimic His ways. Abraham was called a father of many nations in Hebrews 4:17, because, ” he believed, even God who quickeneth the death, and calleth those things which be not as though they were”…..
