Devotions
Keep the Union
"I am the Vine, you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much (abundant) fruit. However, apart from Me—cut off from vital union with Me—you can do nothing. If a person does not dwell in Me, he is thrown out as a [broken-off] branch and withers"...
Faith And Patience Required
"...Be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises." (Heb. 6:12 NASB) To have patience means to have fortitude, strength, courage and staying power. Patience is the ability to stay focused over a long haul, not being...
Look at What Is Unseen
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. (2 Cor. 4:18) How can you look at something unseen? You're certainly not looking at it...
Choose Words of Life
"Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof" (Prov. 18:21). Sometimes Christians take God's sovereignty a little too far. They think they're supposed to walk through life just "rolling with the punches," taking...

Coming Over to God’s Financial System
"Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness" (2 Cor. 9:10 KJV). Someone who's operating with the Holy Ghost is able to function regardless of what happens....
Take Correction
"Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate you; reprove a wise man, and he will love you. Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser; teach a righteous man...and he will increase in learning" (Prov. 9:8-9 AMP). There is one thing you can do that will...
Life without Dread or Anxiety
Proverbs 1:33 says, “But whoever listens to me will dwell safely and will be secure, without fear of evil” (NKJV). It is not the will of God that we live our lives dreading each day. Dread and anxiety steal the joyous life that God designed us to experience. The...
Open the Flow
"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of...
