If you are born again there may be darkness all around you, but you are light because the light giver lives in you! There may be curses all around you but you are blessed! There may be bondage all around you but you are free!
Why is knowing God’s Word so important? Because God’s Word is His will, and when we learn what God has already done for us and provided to us through His grace, we can use our faith to confidently receive those things that are already ours!
There is a very real God whose presence you can know, whose hand you can hold, who will speak with you and His voice will not be somewhere in the distance, but rather IN you. He loves you and wants to live with you and through you!
It’s an exciting time of year – a time of decorations, baking, lights, and of course, Christmas gifts! There is another very special aspect of this season – it’s what the angels said, Behold, unto you a Savior is born. Good will towards all of mankind. Christmas is indeed a miracle.
When Kevin was a young boy, his father passed away leaving eight children. For the grieving family it looked as if there would be no gifts for Christmas that year.
On Christmas morning however, as the family awoke not expecting any gifts at all, they found on the front porch a giant box of presents for all eight children! It was truly a miracle Christmas for all!
Today, the greatest miracle gift of all is Jesus. May He be at the very center of your Christmas, and the focus of all that you do. Merry Christmas!
Throughout our lives as believers, a very important message we can “preach” to those around us is the example of our lifestyle. People notice when we don’t react or breakdown under pressure, standing on the faithfulness of God’s Word in every situation until we see the deliverance of the Lord!
I am praying for our friends and partners, that you may know the plan that the Lord has set forth for your life. This knowledge will generate an inner strength, enabling you to face life each day with an “all things are possible” attitude. We pray that you may have His wisdom and His understanding for all of life’s decisions!
I find 224 references in the Bible that include the words GOD and GOOD. In the midst of all the turbulence we are experiencing in the earth today, have you taken time to remember that God is the author of Good?
It doesn’t matter how bad your past is. You might say your sins are as dark as mud, but even a glass of mud will become drinkable if you keep pouring clean, fresh water into it. A field of weeds will produce wheat if you start putting new seeds into the soil!
In a day when so many think and talk of what they don’t have, or used to have, or would like to have, it’s very important to take stock of what you DO have. If you are a child of God, then you know you have Jesus Christ living in you and you are never alone!
Jesus Christ destroyed the power of sin! The Bible says that Christ died and then rose again. He set you free from hell and death. He defeated the devil! Now I can say, “Yes, Jesus! I believe that You have brought healing. You have given me a new life! You have given me a good life! I have 100 percent health in You!”
