Greater Works
"He who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father" (John 14:12 NKJ). There is a kind of false humility that surfaces when this verse is discussed by Bible commentators. The thinking is,...
God Can Get it To You if He Can Get it Through You
"Neither give place to the devil. Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth" (Eph. 4:27-28 KJV). Too often, people wonder can God get the blessing to me?...
How’s Your Spiritual Maintenance?
"The cares and anxieties of the world, and distractions of the age, and the pleasure and delight and false glamour and deceitfulness of riches, and the craving and passionate desire for other things creep in and choke and suffocate the Word, and it becomes...

Position is God-given
A carnal person judges worth by comparison, but as believers, we must begin to look at things from God’s perspective. First Samuel 16:7 tells us exactly how God views things. It says, “For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance,...
When God Speaks, We Must Listen
Hebrews 12:25 (NLT) See to it that you obey God, the one who is speaking to you. For if the people of Israel did not escape when they refused to listen to Moses, the earthly messenger, how terrible our danger if we reject the One who speaks to us from heaven! One...
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"...
