Devotions
Stick Your Neck Out
“And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them” (Acts 3:5). Real Bible hope is not “wishing.” It is earnest, intense expectation that what God has said will come to pass. How do you develop that kind of hope? You stay in...
The Fruit Of Our Lips
“By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.” (Heb. 13:5) Jesus sacrificed everything for us. He didn’t hold back one part of His spirit, soul or body for His...
Talk About Your Faith
And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. (James 4:15) I was a single man at the time I experienced this paralysis in my face. I had walked a young woman named Imogene to...
Love Always Forgives
“[Love] doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil” (1 Cor. 13:5). Love always forgives. Forgiveness is one of the offsprings of love. The Amplified Bible says it this way: “[Love] is not...

Where He Is
“Jesus answered and said unto him, ‘If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him'” (John 14:23). As Jesus goes on teaching in John chapter 14, He begins to talk about...
Can Strangers See Jesus in You?
“Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus” (Acts 4:13). How would you like to be so full of the glory of God...
The Source of Wisdom
The spiritual qualities which are described in the ant can be attained by the person who will put forth the effort to understand God’s Word. The Bible says, “…Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you” (James 4:8 NKJV). The Lord will empower us to become...
Believe When You Pray
“Therefore I say unto you, what things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” (Mark 11:24) This verse states that whatever we ask God for in prayer, believing in, and being confident of the answer,...
