How to Kill a Giant – Step 1
“And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?” (1...
Shoes Of Readiness
“And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.” (Eph. 6:15) We must desire to tell the good news about Jesus whenever and wherever we go. This readiness must be like shoes on our feet, a fashion necessity. The world around us is...
Healing and Deliverance Come by Faith
If ye shall ask any thing in my [Jesus’] name, I will do it. (John 14:14) In one service a man with TB of the spine walked back to his seat, and I wondered why what I’d done didn’t work. I walked back behind the pulpit, and, suddenly, Jesus stood...
Fix Your Eyes on God’s Word
“Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall” (1 Cor. 10:12). The enemy will do anything in the world to get a believer’s eyes off the answer and back on the problem. For instance, I’ve heard people say, “I...

Your Own Words
“…He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not” (Ps. 15:4). One of the characteristics of a spiritual pilgrim is that he “sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.” In other words, he keeps his word. If you don’t learn to be a...
Keep Paddling Upstream
“Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips” (Ps. 141:3). Do you really believe that you need to watch over your mouth? Most believers don’t. You can tell that just by listening to their conversations. They profess, for...
Lay Aside Past Mistakes
When the armies of Israel stood cowering in terror before the threat of the Philistine champion, Goliath, there was only one young man who would stand strong to meet the challenge. David could stand boldly in the face of adversity because he was able to look back...
Peace Through the Prayers of the Saints
“Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints” (Eph. 6:18 KJV). Prayer for believers is vital in this day and hour. Many people think the Bible is outdated...
