When we turn to Him Jesus tells us a story about a young man who left home and went to make a name for himself. (Luke 15:11-32) It could be a kid going to college with his parents credit card. Or a kid chasing a dream with his fathers support and blessing. We know thisContinue reading “God Will Come Running”

How Do We Pray?
It’s simpler than we think Prayer, is a conversation with God. For me, I just talk to the Lord. Jesus says that God is our father. The Apostles tell us that God is our father as well, if we know Him. When we believe Him, He calls us friend. Abraham believed what God told him,Continue reading “How Do We Pray?”
As If By Fire
We Are Being Sanctified “Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man’sContinue reading “As If By Fire”
What is Hell?
What do the scriptures say? When we study the scriptures on a subject, we go by what the entire Word says, based upon the guiding of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will lead us into ALL truth. That’s how it works. (John 16:13, Jas 1:5) We are surrounded by lots of false teachings, andContinue reading “What is Hell?”
Evil Is With Me
We have a corrupted nature “I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.”—Rom. 7:21 Romans chapter 7 explains to us the purpose of God’s Law. It’s purpose is to reveal sin in us, so that it can be dealt with. Paul describes the struggle between law andContinue reading “Evil Is With Me”
Our Peace
Our Peace Comes Through Knowing Him “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”—Phil. 4:6-7 You’ve seen the slogan “Know Jesus. Know Peace.NoContinue reading “Our Peace”
Thanking God
We owe Him everything God gave us life. He gives us the things we need and the joys of this world. When we get saved and know Him, we see that He gives us so much more. We realize that everything comes from Him and all of it works together for our good. Our thankfulnessContinue reading “Thanking God”
The Demons Come Back
Spiritual warfare and repentance When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out. 25 And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished. 26 Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven otherContinue reading “The Demons Come Back”
Do Not Be Like Them
Do We Follow Evil Authority? There’s a Christian concept that I have struggled with over the years. It is the idea that believers are supposed to bow down to Authority. No matter how evil it is. The concept comes from this verse, “Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is noContinue reading “Do Not Be Like Them”
Not As The World Gives
God Doesn’t Do Like The World Does. Jesus said. “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”—John 14:27 (John 14:1-31–in context) When God calls us, and we turn to Him, confessing JesusContinue reading “Not As The World Gives”
