Letting Each Other Down

But now, thus says the LORD, who created you, O Jacob, and He who formed you, O Israel: “ Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine.

2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.

3 For I am the LORD your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I gave Egypt for your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba… Continue

Knowing God

Many Christians admit that they do not know God. For other believers, lack of knowledge of God is the cause of vacillating spirituality, inconsistency between the talk and the walk of faith, and ineffectiveness in prayer. For still others, inadequate knowledge of God accounts for the reluctant response to holy living and moral responsibility...

What does it mean to know God and live with a knowledge of Him? It involves both intimacy and integrity. The intimacy of the Thou-I… Continue

The Wisdom of Narnia ~ 1 Corinthians 2.6-9

THE WISDOM of NARNIA - 1 Corinthians 2.6-9

True, we speak wisdom among those who are mature—but it is a wisdom which does not belong to this world, nor to the rulers of this world whose extinction is inevitable. But we speak the wisdom of God in a way that only he who is initiated into Christianity can understand, a wisdom which up to now has been kept hidden, a wisdom which God fore-ordained before time for our eternal glory, a wisdom which none of the leaders of this world knew; for, if… Continue

A Poem--My Day with God

My Day with God

Sometimes the sun rises red with the sky a shade of blue

As I walk through my day with God,

He impresses my heart to pray for you

And when I know not what to pray

The Holy Spirit gives me the words to say

Though I may ponder what you have planned,

I am comforted to know You're held in the Master's Hand

Hand In The Cookie Jar

A child may stand in the kitchen already having taken a bite of the cookie he just took from the cookie jar and thinking that his Mom may have heard or seen him suddenly blurts out, “Mom, may I have a cookie?”.

As though asking after the fact will somehow make right his action.

Many treat the Lord the same way.

Often having consulted with family and friends about a desire or decision that we have already set in motion, we decide to ask the Lord when the reality… Continue

Keep me near the cross

Jesus, keep me near the cross, there a precious fountain~

Free to all, a healing stream, flows from Calvary's mountain.*

Good Day . . .

The Cross – it has stumbled some, repulsed others, and caused them to say, ‘no way’. Have you ever stood at the foot of the cross, and looked up? What did you see there? Did you see a man who gave up his royal robes for you, and took your place? It is ironic that so many of the Jews rejected him because they were most equipped to understand… Continue

Walking In The Spirit (Holy Spirit) Part 2

The Bible says that God created man in His image. But what does that mean exactly? Did Adam and Eve look like God? The answer is yes - but not in their physical characteristics, such as hair, eye colour, nose shape. Adam and Eve were created as spiritual beings with characteristics like their Father, God. After they were created, God breathed into them and they became living beings.

The Hebrew word for 'breath' is the same word for 'Spirit.' God is spirit. So God brought them to life with… Continue

THE POWER OF "NOTHING" PART 3 ____ NOTHING TO HIDE

In our lives, work and relationships with others, even in ministry, we often find ourselves having personal agendas. When we are in that situation, then what happens is conflict, discord, hurt, anger eventually leading to separation (from God and others), just like Judas. He had a hidden agenda for being a disciple. Jesus trusted to Judas with the money bag, although he was a thief. But rather than change his agenda, he remained the same. His heart did not change. He continued to live the life… Continue

Doorway to wisdom is humility ~ 1 Corinthians 1.26-31

Doorway to wisdom is humility

Brothers, just look at the way in which you have been called. You can see at once that not many wise men—by human standards—not many powerful men, not many high-born men have been called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise men; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the strong things; and God has chosen the ignoble and the despised things of the world, yes, and the things which are not, to bring… Continue

The Gift of Grace

14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’” 16 And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has seen God at any time.

Acts 17:21

Act 17:21 (For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.)

All the Athenians and strangers which were there - As Athens was renowned for its wisdom and learning, it became a place of public resort for philosophers and students from different parts of the then civilized world. The flux of students was in consequence great; and these, having much leisure time, would necessarily be curious to know… Continue

What you mean to me.

My dear friends. I believe that God has placed this message on my heart. As I look at all the "friends" I have in my list I realized just how much you all truly mean to me. I have many friends here who I have become very close to. Many friends who I have only spoken to a few times. But,I felt it most important to tell you all just how much your friendship has meant to me.

God chose each of us to become friends. God places people in our lives as part of his plan for each of us. Some of you… Continue
