Obedience and Love Go Together
1 John 3:10 (NLT) …Anyone who does not obey God’s commands and does not love other Christians does not belong to God. Obeying God and loving our Christian brothers and sisters is crucial for us to succeed in our Christian walk. But most importantly, that’s how we...
Don’t Play the Game!
“I receive not honour from men. But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. How can ye believe, which receive honour one of...
Easy And Light
“For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matt. 11:30 NASB) You might hear some people say that being a Christian is not easy and walking with God is a real hardship. They say life is heavy because, as a Christian, they receive a lot of criticism...

The Bible is Your Television Guide
“Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer” (Rom. 12:12 KJV). You will always have situations in which Satan will try to steal your joy. Your response to that is to rejoice in hope. Hope is confident expectation. Without...
Giving the Word First Place
“Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counselors” (Ps. 119:24). When the crises or tests come, too many Christians say, “What are we going to do now?” The crises of life come to us all. But if you are Word-oriented, the first thing you...
Pure Spiritual Power
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law” (Gal. 5:22-23). So many believers think of the fruit of the spirit as little more than a passive list of...
A Shift in Finances
The natural power of wealth has influenced every society from the beginning of history. Money has been at the center of the rise and fall of every great empire. Whoever controlled the wealth could control governments and nations. The god of this world, Satan, has...
