Reading Ezekiel chapters 1- 6, I saw a distinct similarity in what God said to Ezekiel about the nation Israel and its people, and in what God has been doing to America because of the same thing, that turning to idol worship: idolatry. God tells Ezekiel, the priest/prophet, what He is going to do the… Read more »

God is Neither Easy Nor Hard to Know
As I was talking to my Father God this morning, I had to thank Him (once again) for who He is. I thought about what He had said to me a while back, “Give me more of you and I will give you more of Me.” The thought came this morning that ‘God is neither… Read more »
An Old and New Testament Perspective
I continually read through the Old Testament and the New Testament at the same time, going chapter to chapter, beginning to end, and then starting over again. The main thing I see with the Old Testament that is different from New Testament is the way God deals with the heads of nations/governments whether they are… Read more »
My Failures Don’t Change God’s Plan For Me
I was praying to my Father God about my regrets of all my failures as a believer – thinking that He must make adjustments for in His plan for me. He reminded me that ALL my “failures” ARE INDEED PART OF HIS PLAN; no adjusting necessary. Oh how that frees me! And oh how that… Read more »
REPARATIONS and WHITE PRIVILEGE
Listening to all the discussions on both sides, and demands of “reparations” I was thinking about it in a different way. GOD will one day give “reparations” for the suffering His own children went through for the sake of His Kingdom and Gospel. The false-reparation idea for today’s black population because long ago negro-slaves lived… Read more »

He came to start a personal relationship with us, as we see with His time on earth spent day by day with those He called and those He ministered to personally… Read more »
The Truth Sets Free
Reading through the book of Jeremiah the prophet (in God’s Word) I’m encouraged by what the LORD GOD says to those who trust in Him: “I WILL SAVE YOU, because you trust in Me.” Jeremiah 39:18 As I see all that we are faced with today (under this wicked administration running our nation) and the… Read more »
Jesus Revolution
We went to see the movie “Jesus Revolution,” a true story based on the book of the same name. The story follows youth minister Greg Laurie and pastor Chuck Smith as they take part in the Jesus movement in California during the late-1960s. The younger generation had lost hope in the government and organized religion…. Read more »
Blandina – France 172 AD
This a true story: The tormentors had been taking turns torturing the Christian women in every way from morning till evening. At last, these tormentors collapsed in exhaustion. “We have tried everything on this one,” said the older of the two. “I can’t think of anything else do do to her! How can she still… Read more »
Less of Me – More Room for God (by Dori Mckinnon)
No amount of self-love practices or self-help products will ever replace the true fulfillment of God in someone’s life. The self-help industry makes millions off people and yet people are still miserable, lost, and searching. People buy into the products that claim to help them achieve this goal or that goal. We make a list… Read more »
