My Closest Friend

I have a Friend who is my best Friend. I meet with this Friend who is closer than a brother, every single morning for our time together. I wake up between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. to be with this friend of mine for hours where we talk, laugh and cry. What makes this person… Read more »

Pastors of Yesteryears

Where are the pastors of years ago? “The black-robed regiment of the Revolutionary Period were men of God who spoke out concerning the issues of the day. This label of “black-robed” was given to pastors especially in Colonial America that were very instrumental in America winning their independence. The reason why they were called “black-robed regiment”… Read more »

Tradition vs. Miracles

In John chapter 9 is the account of Jesus when He heals a blind man on the Sabbath. The Pharisees rejected the man and Jesus because He healed on the Sabbath. The question I have, is how many traditions do we observe in the churches that hinder miracles, that shy away from the truth, that get… Read more »

I have heard that faith can be many things, but what I have been shown in the Word of God is very simple. Faith comes by hearing from the Lord.   When the Lord speaks to us from within the Holy Bible He  tells us the end, but does not tell us what the journey will be…. Read more »

Could it be that in the last days we will have whole societies that know a lot of things but cannot figure out how… Read more »

How wearisome it is for the human race when they refuse to learn from the past generations. Man is never satisfied, nor content; for he is always looking for pleasure. Man thinks the good things in life are having huge homes and great sums of money, but to get this his days are filled with… Read more »

Promises Made Good

Nehemiah 9:7-8 NLT When Abraham proved himself faithful to what God had asked of him, God made a covenant with him that blessed Abraham in every way. For God will always do what He promises. He is always true to His Word. Today, it seems that His children want all that God promises, and then… Read more »

Joy and Peace

Today as I listen to people talk they seem to be consumed by the word, “happiness.” They seem to think that if I am happy then all will be well. The Bible says the words that we need to seek are, “joy and peace.” When I have joy and peace it is not because of… Read more »
