NOVEMBER 14th…SECURE!! IN CHRIST!! Times of being afraid is something we all deal with in life. Fear can come from so many different angles and often hit us without warning. Fear can be overwhelming at times. God knew we would face fears. Fear is addressed in the Bible by many different writers, so their audiences […]
Insecurity has become an epidemic in our society today. People are seeking affirmation from any source they can find. The abuse and rejection they have experienced in their life has them searching for someone or something to relieve the pain. Addiction has become the source many have turned to cover their insecurity. Others spend every […]
NOVEMBER 12th…GET ALONE!! COMMUNICATE WITH GOD!! Jesus ministry was so needed and popular that crowds of people came to hear him and be healed of their diseases. Can you imagine what it would be like today if a revival was taking place, people were being touched and healed, and the preacher slipped off somewhere to […]
NOVEMBER 11th…VETERANS DAY!! CELEBRATING SPECIAL PEOPLE!! Hid among Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas is one of the most important holidays we celebrate in America. Today is November 11 and it is known as Veterans Day. It is a day we honor and celebrate all those who have served our country in war and defended […]
NOVEMBER 10th…CAN’T PLEASE EVERYONE!! PLEASE JUST ONE!! People will do anything and everything to get your approval, even if what they do is not right. Campaigns have just finished with candidates trying to get approval from the voters in their area. Promises have been made that will not or can not ever be fulfilled. We […]
We live in a world that is quick to label you and identify who and what you are. You must know who you are in Christ so we are not effected by this culture who wants to mold us into certain images. Even your parents often attempt to turn you into what they think you […]
NOVEMBER 8th…INDEPENDENT?? NOT ME!! How many of us struggle with being our own person? We were raised to provide for ourselves and not depend on anyone to get us through life. In fact, I have had a regular job since age 11, so I started young being independent. The idea of letting someone else help […]
It seems as soon as stores completed Halloween sales they are immediately turning to Christmas. More and more, each year, Thanksgiving is becoming the forgotten day of Holidays. The more blessed we become the more we forget about the Blesser. How many of you can remember the time when you were not as blessed as […]
Getting past our past is one of the most difficult tasks we face in life. Unlike God, we struggle to forgive ourselves for our past issues. My Bible reading this morning was on a very familiar scripture in Matthew. Jesus is passing by the ship of the disciples in the middle of the night walking […]
I have never been a very fast runner. In fact, I have always been a little over weight and slow of foot. I wanted so badly to be chosen to play on the team of some of the better players, but I was always one of the last ones chosen if speed was needed to […]
I grew up watching a television show called Lone Ranger. He did everything on his own with the help of only one person. God created you and I so that we have to be connected in order to grow and produce spiritual fruit. (John 15:4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No […]
OCTOBER 4th…KEEP YOUR CHIN UP!! If we are only able to maintain a good attitude toward life when things are going our way, then we are seriously lacking spiritual maturity. Your attitude belongs to you, and nobody can for you to have a bad one. It’s important to keep your chin up through difficult times […]
Many people have only one goal in life; that is to be happy. The problem is that we go about happiness the wrong way. God has given us a one verse way to enjoy true happiness in our lives. (Philippians 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, […]
OCTOBER 2nd…CLEAR MY WAY!! I was driving through a familiar road a few morning ago, but the fog was so thick that I could not see the road very clearly. I have a GPS on my dashboard and I looked at it and it showed every turn the road made. I didn’t quite trust it […]
SEPTEMBER 30th…MADE BY GOD!! One of the first things I look for when I am buying tools to work with is where they were made. Quality control is so much better some places than others. Attention to detail makes all the difference in how things perform. I thought about this when I read this verse […]
A lot of people are unhappy where they are, with what they are doing, and with the way things are. The problem is they only spend their energy complaining or explaining their situation and never take action to do something about it. You talk about wanting friends, the way you are treated, having fun, getting […]
I listened to Bible verses being quoted at a friend’s memorial service and I thought how fitting those words were for the moment. It was if God was speaking to the crowd himself. It is not always easy to know it is God speaking to us. Sometimes it’s difficult to know if it is instruction […]
Faithfulness and loyalty are actions that have slowly faded from our society. The days of people working for one company for a lifetime, or a person attending the same church for years are seldom found anymore. This world needs people who are faithful and who stick with it through thick and thin. A faithful person […]
Let’s face it, we all have good days and bad days. There are times when all is going well and we hardly have a care in the world. Then, there are times when it seems that everything that happens is difficult and you are not getting anywhere. On those days when you feel like giving […]
There are many different perspectives when it comes to being successful in life. The world describes success as a job promotion, a bigger house, a higher dollar automobile, or being a part of an elite social circle. None of these things will bring true happiness in life. There is only one thing that allows everyone […]
Everyone wants to get to the top and be a success in life. Our strongest desire to triumph still doesn’t keep us from failing at times. Some of the most successful business people in the world went through several failures before finding success. Our failures must not derail us, they have to be used as […]
The root system of a plant is it’s lifeline. All its nutrients and water come through the roots, that’s why it’s difficult for shallow rooted plants to survive. It sprouts up and looks good, then it withers when roots don’t reach deep enough to find water and food for survival. The same is true for […]
If you want anything in life worthwhile, you have to work to obtain it. If you are struggling to break some strongholds in your life, it takes making up your mind to have them broken. But it’s not a matter of depending on yourself or being able to win at life through your own determination. […]
I have prayed prayers that were answered immediately. I’ve had prayers take weeks, months, even years to receive an answer. As much as I love instant answers, the most rewarding answers were the ones I had to wait on. I learned a lot about myself while I was waiting on God to answer my prayers. […]
SEPTEMBER 19th…KEEP FIRST THINGS FIRST!! It is so easy to allow things of this world to take the place of putting God first in our lives. John tells us in fifth chapter of the book of 1st John that we must aggressively strive to always put God first in all we do. It’s a daily […]
