Praise in the Hardship

In Acts, chapter 16, we read where Paul and Silas were thrown into prison in Philippi after casting a demon out of a young girl. They were taken prisoner by the Roman authority, bound, lashed across their backs with the Roman cat-of-nine-tails, and placed into a prison cell in chains…

Fervent Prayer

Our Spiritual Weapons

2 Corinthians 10:4: For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds. Notice that we Christians are equipped with weapons, mighty weapons, which are able to tear down strongholds set up by the enemy, Satan. (more…)

The Voice of Hope

Everyone longs for hope, and in most cases it is either fanned into flame or extinguished with words. King Solomon had it right: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Jesus constantly spoke life-giving words of hope to those around Him. (more…)

Breakthrough

Planting a field takes incredible work.  Tilling the ground to remove rocks and stumps and to turn the soil in preparation for planting seeds and harvesting the crops take time, commitment, and hard work.  It is truly "ground breaking" work, but quite a humble process. (more…)

Training to Wield the Word

No soldier marches into battle wearing a T-shirt and blue jeans; he needs a helmet, boots, body armor, and camouflage, as well as offensive munitions. Likewise, God has equipped you….
