When You Stand for the Truth

When You Stand for the Truth, You Will Be Recognized This past week has been heavy with grief and anger. Emotions have run high, but in the middle of the turmoil came a moment that pierced my heart. A wife stood over her husband’s casket, holding his hands through tears, whispering words that will not… Read more »

The Chains Behind the Promises

In Exodus, God shattered the power of Pharaoh and led His people out of Egypt with a mighty hand. The sea parted, the chains were broken, and a nation of slaves walked into freedom. Yet even as they journeyed into the wilderness, their hearts still longed for Egypt. “We remember the fish we ate in… Read more »

When Conscience Becomes Seared

Do you remember the first time you did something you knew was wrong? Maybe it was stealing something small from a store shelf, lying to your parents, cheating on a test, or crossing a line you promised yourself you never would. At first, it shook you. Your heart raced, your stomach knotted, and you felt… Read more »

The Voice of a Martyr

The Voice They Could Not Silence…. Yesterday, America was shaken to its core. Charlie Kirk — young, bold, unafraid — was gunned down in cold blood.

Technology promises to connect us, but often leaves… Read more »

Power of Prayer

But prayer is not weakness. Prayer is not silence. Prayer is the most powerful response a follower… Read more »

Withholding from God

Genesis 22: “Because you have obeyed me and have not withheld even your son, your only son.” While ready this passage, I asked myself what would I withhold from God? Health, family, fame, riches, position? What I withhold is what God will test me on since He wants to be first in my life. The… Read more »

Remember

Here we are again ending one year and starting a new year.  I wonder what this new year will bring to me and my family. I can say this, “My Lord will still be King, and it will be one day closer to His coming.” This morning, I read this and if I had one… Read more »

God’s Direction For You

Next year will you know the direction that God wants for you? God has said to those who are willing to obey, even when everything looks like it is against you, a path you did not know was there – will appear.   Psalms 77: 19-20 You path way led through the sea, your pathway… Read more »
