Sickness Is Never a Blessing
The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ; He is Lord of all; that word you know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee after the baptism which John preached: how God anointed Jesus of...
Faith that Passes Human Reasoning
“And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? The damsel is not dead, but sleepeth” (Mark 5:39 KJV). There were times in Jesus ministry when He didn’t allow unbelief around Him. Such was the time when He went to...
Pride is the Cause
“By pride comes only contention…” (Prov. 13:10, NKJ). Much of earth’s strife, conflict, turmoil, and war can be traced back to pride. It was a heart lifted up with pride that provoked the first war in all recorded history when Lucifer and his...
Lamp of the Lord
“The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord, searching all the inward parts of the belly” (Prov. 20:27). One translation of this verse reads, “The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord.” To put it into modern speech, you would say,...

Possessing Wealth
Fear has prevented many Christians from possessing their God-given inheritance. The fear of becoming materialistic has caused believers to neglect this important part of what is theirs in Christ: the inheritance of things. This fear is based on a wrong definition...
Hold Fast to What Belongs to You!
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. (Rev. 3:11) I remember a man who was marvelously healed in one of my meetings in Oklahoma. He couldn’t walk by himself, but he was instantly healed and could walk just as good...
Happy 4th of July!
America is celebrating her birthday! Our unprecedented freedom was the result of specific ideas, many of which were drawn directly from the Bible. In fact, at the 150th anniversary celebration of the Declaration of Independence, President Calvin Coolidge affirmed:...
Pride Doesn’t Forgive
Have you ever noticed that offended people are never treated quite good enough and that they seem to move from relationship to relationship? Offended Christians seem to move from church to church or from church to no church. How can we solve this problem? The...
