Prophesying Falsehood
By strengthening our faith muscles now, we'll stand ready to discern the truth as the days get darker. Now more than ever we must be living in close fellowship with the Lord and taking in His Word daily.
This Life is Temporary
It can be easy to assume that each day will be just like the previous day, until a tragic life-changing event takes place, and then the reality of how fragile this life is really hits home. It is strategic for Christians to keep in mind that this life is temporary, and it should stir the soul to make each day count.
Effectively Teaching the Word of God
Taken from twenty years of experience, here is a list of five keys for effectively teaching the Word of God through the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Fulfillment of Scripture
A substantial portion of Scripture is prophetic text, disclosing God’s predetermined plan of redemption in the first and second comings of the Messiah. It is our job to study His Word and share this prophetic plan with the world around us, because too many have never heard such good news!
Forsaking the Lord
For decades, since the reign of King Solomon, the people of Israel had been slowly replacing worship of the One True God with pagan worship and sacrificing to false gods. They sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the Lord. Finally, the Lord had declared disaster on the people. He was now returning their evil on their own heads.
Humility of Heart
We are placed on this earth to bring glory to God, and our highest calling is to honor Him in all areas of life. But here's the thing: we cannot glorify God if we are also trying to glorify ourselves. Humility is an essential factor in our ability to fulfill His purposes in our lives and to stay in sync with the things that matter to Him.
Consecrate Yourself Unto the Lord
A cry of revival is going forth throughout America. It is the sound of God's people crying out for the Almighty to save us from the state of depravity that is drowning our nation. All around we see corruption, perversion, immorality, and even demonic activity. Some Christians long to be raptured out, but God has a high calling for our lives for such a time as this!
Foundations that Last
A home can be just another building or it can be a place of spiritual investment. Those who lay foundations in the Word of God and on Jesus Christ will be able to weather any storm and have a lasting impact. Whether you live in an apartment, a condo, or a traditional house, gather your family for a dedication ceremony. Make the commitment today to start serving the Lord from your dwelling place.
You Reap What You Sow
There are two conflicting belief systems in this world, God's ways and man's ways. The way of the Spirit and the way of the flesh. God's Word promises that those who sow godliness will reap bountiful blessings. However, it also says that the ungodly will reap consequences for their sins. Those who bear good fruit are those who do the will of God, and they will reap eternal life. And those who do not bear good fruit, those who reject and rebel against the ways of God, are headed for eternal death.
