Ask yourself this--regarding worship

Do you worship your God or your ministering role model?

I often see articles that intend to discredit everything about individual ministers. Why? Are we at times so self righteous and shallow that we expect our ministers to have all the right answers? Do we esteem them as though they should represent the fullness of our Lord, Jesus Christ? We should be careful not to. Why? Because the bible says so. We are told to not worship idols. It is a direct command. Do we tend to idolize our… Continue

An Adventure Story

What entices you to read a book? The title? The author? Subject matter? Someone's recommendation? Personal growth? Because it is the sequel to a book you loved? All of these and more are reasons why you are going to love the book of Acts. Fully named, "The Acts of the Apostles," the work takes up where the Gospel of Luke leaves off, and has even been referred to as the fifth gospel. I invite you to join me as we witness what came next for the band of men and women who followed Jesus once He… Continue

HOW TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD

What does Jesus mean when he says,

Take care then how you hear, for to the one who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he thinks that he has will be taken away (Luke 8:18)?

He is applying the parable of the four soils (Luke 8:12-15). Notice the connection between “take care how you hear,” and the focus in hearing in the parable.

“The ones along the path are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the… Continue

BARNABAS

WHO IS BARNABAS?

I would like for us to take some time to examine the life of an extraordinary Christian, Barnabas. What makes him so extraordinary (to me) is that in the relatively short time span of his recorded life in scripture, he has such a great impact upon the church and those around him.

He enters the scene in the book of…

Another Sad & Beautiful Day To Grow & Learn

Ok, everybody. I didn't go to church this morning. I was kinda burnt out after going to the study the other nite and just needed a break from ritual. I don't want my going to church to become a habit, or worse yet, a rut. I want it to feel new and fresh, and I actually want to go because I feel the urge to be there with the Lord and all my brothers and sister, and not because I am expected to be there.

I was glad when Todd finally made it home yesterday. It was awful without him and… Continue

Special Occasion

A friend of mine opened his wife's underwear drawer and picked up a silk paper wrapped package:

'This, - he said - isn't any ordinary package.'

He unwrapped the box and stared at both the silk paper and the box. 'She got this the first time we went to New York , 8 or 9 years ago. She has never put it on , was saving it for a special occasion.

Well, I guess this is it.

He got near the bed and placed the gift box next to the other clothing he was taking… Continue

i am in need of prayer

Pray for mental, spiritual & physical healing for Tom J. G. Pray God brings Tom out of the lies and situations Tom has bound himself under. Pray God brings Tom and Kathylou M. into a full time relationship with their love 10 folds stronger than before and God restores daily communication from Tom to Kathylou. Pray God continues to watch over and provide for Kathylou and all those God made Kathylou a steward over.

Feeling Down

I heard from Todd yesterday that he wouldn't be home until the early morning hours of Saturday. I was bummed. I went to bed exhausted, from only God knows what, because I can't remember doing a single thing of use the whole day. When I awoke this morning I was still exhausted. I hit the snooze three times before getting up to take the girls to school. I woke my son up when I got back. He had an interview for a job this morning @ 10 and needed time to get ready. I wandered back to the living… Continue

SHARING OUR PERSONAL TESTIMONIES

SHARING OUR PERSONAL TESTIMONIES

One of the most exciting and interesting ways to share Jesus is to give a personal testimony.

Your testimony is the basis of your witness. It is your story, your firsthand account of what God through Christ has done in your life.

Your testimony has authority. There may be many questions about the Bible that you may not be able to answer, but you are the authority on your… Continue

A SIGNIFICANT COVER-UP

From My Perspective - - -

For more than thirty (30) years, the United States has been involved in conflicts and increasingly tense relationships in the Arab-Muslim world, particularly with Iran (and the hostage crisis 1979-81) and then Iraq (1990-91, and 2003 to the present). It has cost our nation dearly in terms of life, limb, treasure and prestige.

Events move so quickly in our world that they become almost a blur in our thinking. The Iran hostage crisis was a… Continue

I Need a Wake Up!...

I am still in search of uplifting music and videos. Maybe using the word 'uplifting' isn't actually correct. I have realized in my search that what I like is very different than what many others listen to, so I have started adding some of the music (and accompanying videos since most of them are from Youtube) that I've come across that appeal to me to my profile page. I hope and pray that anyone reading this might take a moment to have a listen to one or more of the videos to ascertain the type… Continue

hearing the cry of the people

hello everyone, my name is jose ocasio, and iam just new to this site. this blog is about what happened to me this past saturday. I think God everyday, because he always teaches me new things, concerning his word. The bible says that we must be HOLY. we must seperate ourselves from the things of the world. we can easily be swayed by the business of this life, and not do the things that GOD has called us to do. unfortunetly we in our culture have become more of a me centered, and my needs to be… Continue

Why yet am I also Judged as a Sinner?

Why yet am I also Judged as a Sinner?

In these end days we see controversy after controversy. The Bible is clear on those that will not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, but when a man, who is called by God, preaches these things he is accosted, persecuted and called a sinner.

“For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?

And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we… Continue
