James 1:21 (NLT) So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the message God has planted in your hearts, for it is strong enough to save your souls. When we accept Jesus in our hearts, we are going to spend the rest of our lives getting...
"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us" (Heb. 12:1). This verse clearly tells us to...
"For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful" (1 Cor. 14:14). God is a Spirit. Man is a spirit. God contacts us and deals with us through our spirits. He leads us through our spirits. He does not communicate directly...
"So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground" (Mark 4:26). Jesus compared the kingdom of God with the planting of seed and reaping the harvest. It's a simple concept. One all of us understand. Why, then, aren't all of us producing bumper...

"Having done all, to stand. Stand..." (Eph. 6:13-14). As you put God's prescription for health (Prov. 4:20-24) to work in your life, don't be discouraged if you don't see immediate results. Although many times healing comes instantly, there also are times when it...
"You are already clean because of the word, which I have spoken to you." (John 15:3 NASB) We know that God has promised to prune the unfruitful branches of our life, but how does He do it? Jesus says that the words He speaks will do it. The Word of God is sharp and...
