Devotions
The Root of Hopelessness
"All things are possible to him that believeth" (Mark 9:23). Have you ever felt hopeless...ready to give up? Maybe you've already given up...felt that there were no answers and that you were simply trapped right where you sit. Well, according to the Word of God,...
Reigning in Life
"For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ." (Rom. 5:17) It is true that through the sin of Adam death began to rule us. But how much...
Jesus Bore Your Sicknesses
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself [Jesus] took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses. (Matt. 8:17) Jesus took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses. Since He bore them, why should we bear them? Isaiah 53:4 says,...
Be Free From Condemnation!
"Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight" (1 John 3:21-22). Condemnation and disease go hand in hand....
B.C. and A.D. Compared

Integrity is Key Ingredient for Restoration
"Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst...
God Has Something to Say
"The sheep listen to [the Shepherd's] voice and heed it, and he calls his own sheep by name and brings (leads) them out" (John 10:3 AMP). Don't ever be so afraid of making a mistake that you miss out on the joy of acting on the voice of the Lord. Instead, trust the...
Explore With Your Imagination
Within every person alive there lies the power-packed ability to imagine. The human imagination is an inspiring and motivating force. As we practice meditating on God's Word, the inborn creative power of God will be released from our spirits into our imaginations....
Not Counting Up Sins
"Namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation." (2 Cor. 5:19 NASB) This verse is life changing if we believe it is intended for us. God is not...
Let the Word Change Your World
Anytime somebody tells you something amazing, it can be difficult to believe at first. I remember where I was standing in the hallway in high school at Raytown South High School when I found out President Kennedy had been shot. I remember my reaction. The first...
