Living And Walking In The Spirit
"If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit." (Gal. 5:25) We have our life in God by the Holy Spirit. We are born of the Spirit and are made alive in the Spirit the moment we accept Jesus as our Savior. Our spiritual journey begins. But a baby that is...

Choose to Receive the Hand of Faith
"I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live" (Deut. 30:19). As Christians living in these fleshly bodies, too often we agree...

The Word Is God
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." (1 John 1:1) The Word of God is alive. God has given us a written record of the things He has spoken to mankind, so we may know Him and have a relationship with Him. But is His Word...
Getting Results When We Pray
Sometimes we receive letters where people say they have prayed and prayed but have not received an answer from God. Why would someone pray and not get an answer from God? Does God favor some people over others? Is He a respecter of persons? Does He only answer the...
