Hello all, I hope we are good! This morning, I woke up thinking about an issue that has seemingly refused to go away, and I was almost feeling down. Then I remembered a verse of scripture that I feel like sharing with you now. So we do not focus on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:18 HCSB God was actually using this ... »
You have all you need to become all you ever could. The Word lets us know that there is nothing you need towards becoming the most successful and happy person you could ever dream about, that you don’t have already. Col 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power. You can become anything you could ever dream about. The question is not if you have the abil... »
Colossians 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. Colossians 1:17 AMP And He Himself existed and is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. [His is the controlling, cohesive force of the universe.] The Word says that Jesus (who is the Word of God) is actually the cohesive (binding) force that binds the whole universe together. In other words, the Word of... »
Ephesians 4:11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. The Bible let’s us know here that the 5-fold ministry is primarily for the equipping of the saints (everyone is a saint in God’s house – this does not mean they are fully grown... »
The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever. Isaiah 40:8 God’s Word is truth. There’s a difference between the truth and facts. Facts are facts. They are real. But truth is the highest reality. How things are looking might be a fact. How you are feeling might be a fact. What happened or is happening to you now might be a fact. However, there is fact ... »
The Bible says a diligent (disciplined) man shall stand before kings. This is scripture. The Word says it takes diligence and discipline to shine in the presence of great men. Humans might say you need connections or tricks, but the Word says you need diligence. Grace has been showered on us through the work of Jesus Christ. We just need to believe in it. However, to properly take advantage of God... »
The mind is a powerful place. It houses our intellect, our will, our emotions, our memories, our habits, our character and the way we do things generally. Contrary to general belief, the way we do things and our general character is not determined by inheritance and largely unchangeable. Actually, researchers have discovered that genetics, or inheritance does not play as large a role in behavior a... »
Have you started forgetting what God has told you? Have you started doubting it? Have you felt that maybe He might not do it the way He said He would? What matters though is what you SAY and what you DO in line with God’s Word at these times when you get these types of thoughts. This is even more important than what you think. When we get feelings like this, we need to spend time LOOKING at God’s ... »
The most powerful force in the universe is the Word of God. In the Gospel of John, talking about Jesus, the Bible says: John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. In other words, Jesus is the Word of God. Then in the book of Colossians, the Bible, talking about Jesus says: Colossians 1:16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that a... »
James 2:14-22 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, i... »
