He Is With You

He Is With You

In that situation … the Lord’s hand is not too short to help you. His eyes are not shortsited to see you. His love is not so cold not to help you out. His feet and power are not too slow not to be there on time. He would be there for you. When we go through challenging situations, it is very easy sometimes to forget that God has promised us rest all around us. However, this is a fact. ... »

Walking in the Light!

Walking in the Light!

One of my Sunday School teachers told me, concerning her oldest child, “I sent her to school seven years in the first grade. She couldn’t even learn to write her name. The school authorities asked me if I would take her ou... »

The ‘Must’ of the Word

A few days ago, I could hardly sleep. I woke up thinking on the Word and unable to stop it. Coming up in me was Isaiah 55:10. I opened it my Bible and read: Isaiah 55:10 For as the rain comes down, and the snow from the heavens, and does not return there, but waters the earth, and makes it bring out and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; 11 so shall My Word be, which goes ou... »

Seated On The Throne!

Seated On The Throne!

First Corinthians 6:17 says, “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” We are one with Christ. We are with and in Christ. We are seated at the right hand of the Majesty on High. All things have been put under our feet. The thing is, we’ve preached a “cross” religion; we need to preach a “throne” religion. By that I mean that people have thought ... »

When challenges come against you, the deposit of the Word of God in your spirit gives you the supremacy over all the circumstances of life. The Bible describes the Word of God as a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces. There is nothing in the world that can withstand the Word. The Bible says in John 1:1, talking about Jesus, that ‘In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, an... »

The Authority To Change Things

The Authority To Change Things

This article is an excerpt from a book by Kenneth Hagin, The Art of Intercession God hears us the first day we pray, but we do have to stand sometimes before the answer comes.

The angel told Daniel, “Your prayer got through t... »
