Give unto God what is God’s

May 31st, 2009

There are a couple of things I can think of that belong to God. Our lives, our praise and thanksgiving, our time, our commitment. God doesn’t have a need for our money or possessions, but He does care about our lives and our hearts (our souls). These belong to Him, and we [...]

Come and Hear the Word of the Lord

May 24th, 2009

What’s great to hear always is the Word of the Lord. That’s the Word that will pick you up when you are feeling depressed, will get you going and put you right where you need to be. I understand now how people could come to Jesus so often just to hear the Word [...]

Praying for One Another

February 5th, 2009

One major aspect of our Christian lives is our prayer for one another. The Bible says that “Christ ever liveth to make intercession for us” (Hebrews 7:25), and as Christ is formed in us, we too will grow more and more to make intercession for those around us.

James 5:16 “Confess your [...]
