Isaiah 45:3 KJVAnd I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.The old adage says, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. We see that with clothing, furniture, electronics; but the same is true for us.When we are out in sin, getting caught in the bondages of this world:...  Read More

Luke 13:25-28 KJV[25] When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: [26] Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets. [27] But he shall say, I tell you,...  Read More

Matthew 6:12 KJVAnd forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.When we allow someone’s wrong against us to fester in our soul, we become a very negative individual. Unforgiveness transforms us into a broken, bitter, angry, and depressed person.Only when we allow God to move through us and forgive those who have wronged us can peace be restored to our soul. In fact, when we harbor unforgivenes...  Read More

Many like to say the miracles of Jesus, and later the disciples, were for past times and NOT for today. Those individuals are wrong and their lack of faith becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.Matthew 13:58 KJVAnd he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.When we express unbelief it limits the work of God in our life.Proverbs 18:21 KJVDeath and life are in the power of the tongue:...  Read More

Psalm 139:13-14 KJVFor thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.Even from the moment of conception when we’re in our mother’s womb, God is there. He oversees our growth and watches over us before our parents even know we exist.Proverbs 15:3 KJVTh...  Read More

The Lord’s Prayer is often recited but rarely applied. These scriptures were meant as a model for us to follow when praying and not a paragraph to be rehearsed vainly (Matt 6:7).When we dive deep and study this prayer, it gets to the root of many problems in the believer’s life: misplaced priorities, lack, unforgiveness, and temptations and trials.Matthew 6:10 KJVThy kingdom come. Thy will be done...  Read More

Isaiah 6:8 KJVAlso I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.Phil Fulton has epitomized the above verse. Whenever anything needs done, whenever anyone needs help, whenever anyone needs prayer: Phil is there.1 John 4:16 KJVAnd we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwe...  Read More

Once you accept Jesus into your heart, you are saved. Congratulations! You now belong to the family of God and are part of the kingdom of heaven! But what are you doing FOR that kingdom?Matt. 6:33 tells us to “seek ye FIRST the kingdom of God and His righteousness.”When we do this, we lay up treasures in heaven. And the Lord told us, where your treasure is, our hearts will be also (Matt 6:20-21).H...  Read More

1 Kings 20:28 KJVAnd there came a man of God, and spake unto the king of Israel, and said, Thus saith the Lord, Because the Syrians have said, The Lord is God of the hills, but he is not God of the valleys, therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.God is Lord of all: every need, circumstance, and area. It’s all His! He owns the cattle ...  Read More

Jesus passed by many people in his life and ministry here on Earth, and the reactions to Him then were as varied as they are today.Some who saw Jesus accused him of using the power of Satan to do his miracles (Mk. 3:22), but others rightly called him “Son of David” (Luke 18:38) or “Lord” (Mk. 7:28).On Palm Sunday the crowds shouted “Hosanna in the highest” (Matt. 21:9), but just a few days later t...  Read More

How often do we seek the right thing in the wrong place?The disciples sought a resurrected Savior among the dead, and we tend to look for love in all the wrong places.In English, the word “love” has many meanings. I love my kids, and I love my husband - but in different ways.The Greeks language used in Jesus’ day was much more specific; Love had 8 different forms:1. Eros (erotic love)2. Philia (br...  Read More

There are times in life when we feel like we’re drowning. My grandma likes to say, “when it rains, it pours.” That pouring rain often leads to flooding, and the Bible says, “when the enemy comes in like a flood...”Sometimes we’re drowning in the cares of this life: work, school, kids, laundry, food, activities, birthday parties... the list is never ending.But we have to be careful, Jesus warned us...  Read More
