Awake, O Sleeper!
Take no part in and have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds and enterprises of darkness, but instead [let your lives be so in contrast as to] expose and reprove and convict them…Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall shine [make day...
Perfected In God’s Love
“But whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him.” (1 John 2:5 NASB) How can love be perfected in us? We read that for every one who keeps His Word, the love of God is made perfect or...
You Can Die Without Sickness and Disease
Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people. (Gen. 25:8) Older people are eventually going to live their life out and go home to Heaven, but they don’t have to die with sickness and...

“Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” (1 John 5:5) I’ve often heard people say, “It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game.” That’s nonsense. If...
Stand Strong In His Strength
Proverbs 16:3 says, “Roll your works upon the Lord — commit and trust them wholly to Him; He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and so shall your plans be established and succeed” (AMP). As we roll our works upon the Lord, the Holy Spirit...
