Love God, Not Money
Hebrews 13:5 (NLT) Stay away from the love of money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, “I will never fail you, I will never forsake you.” Many people’s hunger for money is such that they become greedy (regardless of sex, age, or...

He Will Give You Rest
“Come to me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.” (Matt. 11:28 NASB) In the turmoil and pressure of living in this struggling world, it is easy to find ourselves tired and weighted down with cares and concerns of the day. Family...

Abide in Jesus
“If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered” (John 15:6). If I were to ask you to make a list of a hundred things you need to do to please the Lord today, you could do it, couldn’t you? In fact, you probably have so...
