There He made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there He tested them, and said, “If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians.

Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 2 “Son of man, speak to the children of your people, and say to them: ‘When I bring the sword upon a land, and the people of the land take a man from their territory and make him their watchman, 3 when he sees the sword coming upon the land, if he blows the […]

We ought to obey God rather than men. These are not words authorities like hearing, especially ones doing things they shouldn’t. But they are words that must be said sometimes. Out loud. Boldly.

You’ve probably been there. I know I have. With the way 2020 and 2021 have been, you may be there right now. Rough times. Really rough moments. Times when our own knees are worn from praying and we may also actively ask others to pray for us, knowing God hears (I Peter 3:12). From a […]

It’s printed on the money in the United States of America. It’s a given in just about any church or group of believers that claims to be Christian: “In God We Trust.” A bold statement of belief and faith in a God Who is full of purpose and plans. The God Who heals, the God […]

I Cor 13:1: “Though I have the gift of prophecy and understand all mysteries and have all knowledge, but have not love, it profits me nothing…” Charity, Love. Love your neighbor. We know about all that of course. We’ve heard it so many times. At least we should understand it. We should be practicing it. […]
