Send us Fan Mail Your spiritual life needs nourishment. For good physical health, you need to eat right and exercise. For good mental health, you should read and engage in meaningful conversations. For good spiritual health, you should feed on God’s Word, exercise the principles found, read the Bible and good books, and engage in meaningful conversations with God. To neglect to do so will lead you...

Send us Fan Mail The Prophet Jeremiah was used effectively by God to warn His people of their pending judgment. Though similar in their message, the way God used Jeremiah was unique. God used visual clues and dramatic performances by Jeremiah to communicate His message. In chapter 13, God uses a new priestly sash and a fifteen-hundred-mile journey to demonstrate the distance the people had put bet...

Send us Fan Mail Solomon was given a measure of wisdom greater than all others. The Book of Proverbs is him as a dad passing down that wisdom to his son. In so doing, he passes that along to us. And in the same way that God provided Solomon with wisdom, He says He will provide wisdom for all who ask Him for it.

Send us Fan Mail The Book of Proverbs is a guide for life. Attempting to live a godly life in an ungodly world requires wisdom. Through this Book, God provides His people with divine instruction on how to successfully navigate the corrupted path of life. This Book provides us with a pathway to wisdom.

Send us Fan Mail The little redhead sang the song so joyfully, "It's a hard knock life".  Once a day don't you want to throw the towel in? It's easier than puttin' up a fight. No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy! No one cares if you grow... or if you shrink! No one cares when your eyes get wet an' weepy! From all the cryin' you would thi...

Send us Fan Mail We tend to think about prayer as a wish-list. When I was a boy, I would search through the toy catalog that came in the mail, circle all the toys I wanted, and then make sure that the catalog found its way to my mom and dad. We treat prayer similarly. But real prayer doesn’t begin with me or my need; it doesn’t begin with my great need nor end with that need. Prayer begins and end...

Send us Fan Mail Jesus commands us to pray. Although He already knows what you have need of, He stills requires His children to come to Him in prayer. That should tell us that prayer is not merely a vehicle for getting what I want. Prayer is of God, and if I want to know Him, then I must spend time in prayer.  

Send us Fan Mail Alvin Reid once said, “Prayer is intimacy with God that leads to the fulfillment of His purposes.” He is right. Prayer is not a shortcut to getting what I want from God. Prayer allows me to get to know God on a deeper level and allows God to work out His purposes in me and then through me.

Send us Fan Mail Jesus told His disciples, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Ask. Seek. Knock. Those words can be an acronym, A-S-K, ask. Just before Jesus goes to the Garden of Gethsemane, He takes time to teach His disciples one more time to ask. And if they will ask, they will receive.

Send us Fan Mail One of the most beautiful thoughts in the New Testament is that one day Jesus will return for His bride, the church. He told us that He had gone into heaven to prepare a place for us, like a groom will prepare living conditions for his bride. And when He is ready, He will come get us. Thankfully, the Bible shares some of the details of what that will be like.

Send us Fan Mail Mysteries are scary when you don’t know the outcome. But when you know when the story has a happy ending, the frightening points along the way lose a little bit of their punch. For many people, studying the Rapture of the Church is scary, but God reveals to us what we need to know that it might be encouraging instead.

Send us Fan Mail The return of Jesus, the rapture of the church, is imminent. That simply means that He could return to retrieve His bride at any moment. There is no prophecy awaiting to be fulfilled; there are no reasons for His delay outside of His own will and timing. He may have been gone for two thousand years, but when He comes, it’ll have just been “a little while,” especially in the contex...

Send us Fan Mail None of us enjoy waiting. Waiting on a doctor, waiting at a traffic light, waiting until Christmas. But learning to wait is a part of life. And what we gain in the waiting can be invaluable. God teaches us life-long lessons in the waiting. Today we wait for Jesus’ return. And He prepares us everyday for His coming.  

Send us Fan Mail Christian renewal and church revival are common prayer requests. Often we hear messages that inspire us to be and to do differently. But to step out and make the changes necessary is another story entirely. Fear and busy-ness stay in our way. But if you could get over that like Rai Benjamin in the Olympic hurdles, you would find the possibility to push reset in your life.

Send us Fan Mail Don’t you wish you had a reset button in life? Just one little click and everything would be refreshed, and you would get a chance to start over. There are no such buttons in real life, but God does offer us the ability to stop and reset our priorities. Many of us just don’t feel like we have the time to do it. But it is so necessary that maybe we should stop now and push reset.

Send us Fan Mail One of the chief roles of the Holy Spirit is to glorify Christ. This is pictured beautifully in the Book of Revelation where the Holy Spirit is said to be like seven lamps of fire before the throne of God in heaven; the purpose of those lamps, the purpose of the Holy Spirit is to cast light – to spotlight – the Person of Christ. He is doing that today through the life of the Chris...

Send us Fan Mail The Holy Spirit has been called the Helper, the Comforter, the Spirit of Glory, the Spirit of Grace, and other great titles. In our passage today, Jesus calls Him the Spirit of Truth, meaning that He will guide believers into all truth. Today we want to take a look at the way the Holy Spirit works in the life of a Christian.

Send us Fan Mail The role of the Holy Spirit cannot be overemphasized. For too long, among us Baptists, we have understated His role. Without Him, however, we would never have come to Christ, we would never find lasting comfort, and we would have no choice but to succumb to the world’s pressures. Don’t resist the Holy Spirit; Jesus has sent Him to be your Helper.

Send us Fan Mail At the end of John 16, Jesus encourages His disciples by telling them, “In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” That statement in the last verse is a synopsis of this whole chapter. As you will hear from the first third of this chapter, Jesus tells His disciples how and why they will face so much trouble, but the presence of His Ho...

Send us Fan Mail We Christians want to be used by God. We want to be His vessel, His tool, His servant. Sometimes those opportunities for usefulness take us by surprise, and we don’t think that we are ready. But the God who is sovereign over all things may just have you right where He wants you at just the right time. Look around you. Is someone hurting? Is someone in need? Is someone lost? Maybe...

Send us Fan Mail A Divine Appointment is when God orchestrates a meeting between one of His witnesses and a lost person He desires to save. This appointment may be news to both the witness and the lost person, but God has arranged it nonetheless. To the surprise of both, that lost person may find salvation. Wouldn’t you want to be a part of something like that? Ask God, then, to set you up a Divin...
