A question that has been coming to me is: Am I working for God or is God working for me? I would ask you who read this the same question. Are you working for God or is God working for you? I know that some of you will say it is both, but what comes… Read more »

Praying in the Spirit
Ephesians 6:18 “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.” We must remember that when Jesus was here in the flesh He was engaged in the same conflict that we are in. The devil assailed Him and the… Read more »
Christ’s Millennial Kingdom
I have been interested in Christ’s 1K year reign for years now, and have compared Scriptures to study about it to get a better understanding, but still learning, and have no intention on forming any set doctrine except that in testifying of Jesus Christ it also includes His return to reign – because of what Luke… Read more »
Just a thought
I have learned that one of the roots of sin is based upon this lie: that you are insignificant and of no value. When we believe this lie, we then try and become significant, and to work to HAVE value. This false motive will always lead us into sinful life choices. The Bible says… Read more »
Sword of the Spirit
Ephesians 6:17 “…and take the Sword of the Spirit, which is Word of God.” All the other parts of armor protect particular parts of the body. However, it seems that the Sword of the Spirit not only holds back the enemy in a defensive matter, but also offensively in protecting the entire body. … Read more »

Shield of Faith
Ephesians 6:16 “Above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.” The words “above all” indicate that there is now a change in the armor that we are to put on. We are now coming to the fourth piece of… Read more »
The Risk
I’ve had a song rolling around in my head for days. It’s the theme song “Human” (Rag’n’BoneMan) for the new movie “Thank You For Your Service,” (lyrics below), which we’re planning to see. I’m so glad to see all the ‘hero’ movies coming out that show us all the risk our soldiers, law enforcers, fire-fighters,… Read more »
God is Judging His Own Children
Judges 19 and 20 In these days Israel had no king. The Israelites inquired of God for His leadership through God’s priests and prophets. They followed God’s laws. They were not perfect men with their obedience, like we are not perfect in obeying God’s Word, but God was faithful to bring them into Canaan… Read more »
Our Feet
Ephesians 6:15 “…and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.” Have we ever thought about the important role our feet play in everyday life? Our feet touch the ground whenever we are standing, walking or running and they are an extension of your legs, which help move… Read more »
