Don’t Subject Yourself to Abuse
I want to dispel a very common misconception about abuse and offense. Contrary to what most people think, removing yourself from an abusive situation doesn’t necessarily mean you are offended or unforgiving. For example, if your husband beats you, God does not...
Creation Reveals the Principle
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, and night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard. Psalm 19:1 – 3 Although most of us don’t know as much as...
Paint Those Pictures!
“And now abideth faith, hope, charity [or love], these three” (1 Cor. 13:13). Hope is a living thing. Paul says hope “abides.” To abide means “to live.” Only living things abide, so hope is a living thing and you have to guard it...
Faith Is Substance
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Heb. 11:1) Everything that is around us in this world is a substance of some kind. The floor is one substance, the chair is another substance and our clothes are...

Eyes Of The Soul
“Anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see” (Rev. 3:18 NKJ). These are the words of the Lord Jesus addressed to the Laodicean church. Laodicea was world famous during Bible days for its manufacture of an eye powder, which could cure weak eyes....
The Seed: The Way Out of the World’s System
“Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days” (Eccl. 11:1 KJV). Appreciate the seed you have because it is the beginning of your harvest. The Bible says to not despise small beginnings. The seed you have now has power. And God...
His Workmanship
“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them” (Eph. 2:10). We believers didn’t make ourselves who and what we are – God did. So be careful about passing...
Be Courageous
“Be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest” (Josh. 1:7)....
