WE DON’T FIGHT LIKE HUMANS “We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:3-5 NLT). We are humans, but we do not wage war as humans do. The average person wastes their time fighting with someone else in the…
KNOWING AND LEARNING IS NOT THE SAME “… They stumble because they do not obey God’s word, and so they meet the fate that was planned for them” (1 Peter 2:8 NLT). God will not teach you anything new until you obey and practice what He has already taught you. God is not in the…
BE ENCOURAGED “Then the angel of the Lord came again and touched him and said, “Get up and eat somemore, or the journey ahead will be too much for you” (1 Kings 19:7 NLT). Everybody, Christian or non-Christian will experience discouragement. A man of God named Elijah had obtained a tremendous victory. He had prayed and as…
I AM FRUTIFUL “Yes, think about Abraham, your ancestor, and Sarah, who gave birth to your nation. Abraham was only one man when I called him.

YOU ARE GREAT IN GOD “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1 NKJV). Most people do not have faith in themselves and they see an impossibility in every possibility. Instead of seeing an opportunity, they see a problem. When they see a glass of water,…
LIFE IS SHORT “Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom” (Psalm 90:12 NLT). Life is short and we don’t have time to do everything. God doesn’t expect us to be the best soccer player, the best baseball player, the best golfer, the best astronaut, nor the best pastor…
EVERYTHING WE DO “God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another… Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ…” (1 Peter 4:10-11 NLT). Everything we do…
FIRM IN HIS GRACE “… My purpose in writing is to encourage you and assure you that what you are experiencing is truly part of God’s grace for you. Stand firm in this grace” (1 Peter 5:12 NLT). Grace is the supernatural ability given by God to “be” what in our own human strength we…
FROM CHILD TO MAN “When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things” (1 Corinthians 13:11 NKJV).
