Solomon had a wonderful peak, he had the "midas touch" and had everything at his reach. He was the wisest and wealthiest of all men, but he hit a downfall like any other man would. It just took one day at a time, and his downfall was happening little by little. No one all of sudden hits their downfall. It happens little by little, each and every day. Whether it is a marriage or a person&...

Solomon was not only a wise man, but he was well-rounded. Solomon was proactive and organized in his administration. Solomon was always studying and was a student 24/7. Solomon loved the Lord and gave Him adoration. Solomon was always out of his comfort zone and kept himself busy. Are you well-rounded like Solomon?

What is the first word that comes to your mind when you hear the name "Solomon"? A king who was wise, is the first thing that comes to anyone's mind. God asked Solomon what does he want in life. Solomon could have asked for anything in the world, but he asked for wisdom. Since Solomon asked for wisdom and knowledge, God blessed him with wisdom and much more. Solomon was wise enough...

We should be living in fear of the Lord. We are merely humans and He is our Creator. Our society today is different compared to "Happy Days'' and "Mayberry". Our society no longer lives in fear of the Lord, because we lack common sense. The fear of the Lord is a healthy relationship, just as when you were growing up and you feared but loved your dad. We should have that sa...

Have you taken a stand for Christ? Are you along when you take a stand? What a testimony you can have, when you take a stand with hundreds or even just by yourself. When you take that stand, remember you're on the winning side. When you do take that stand, it will not be an road but it will pay for you to serve for Christ.

Are you living in your life in fear of man or in fear of God? We need the fear of God in our country, states, and schools, but we also need the fear in church and in our lives. Sin leaves behind costly consequences, when you live in fear of men. We should live in fear of the Lord and love Him with all of our hearts. “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other...

Do you ever say "That's not fair!" to God? Do you think that someone else is always “robbing” you of your dream? Do you feel as if you need to bargain with God to get your “fair” share of life? Do you keep a tally in your book of when God blesses you and when He blesses someone else? Listen to Pastor Scheving’s messages as he shows us why we should not be second guessing God and tha...

Does it feel like everything around you is slipping? Don't align yourself with people who causes problems in the church. If they are causing trouble, don't stop stoop to their level and rebuke them. But when they are in the wrong (as in doctrine wise), let them know and don't let it slide. The "stink" of this world, "smells" at first, but the longer you are livin...

When your heart is heavy, it is hard to take the time to celebrate. But do you take the time to celebrate, whether you want to or not? God wants us to celebrate life and to celebrate Him. We need to thank and praise God for everything He has done for us. When we celebrate God, we need to come to Him with a pure heart. Don't focus on what your have lost, but have have a song in your heart for...

Have you gotten relaxed in your daily walk? Have you been neglecting your time with God? Have you blessed the Lord in your everyday life? When you go to church, who are you worshiping: yourself or God?

Do you know the history of the Baptists? Have you heard of the "Trail of the Blood" that is in the Baptist history? The apostles and earlier Christians were tortured and murdered for their beliefs. As Baptists today we should be humble on how far and precious the earlier Baptists have brought our faith. Our history is not a bed of roses but comes with martyrs. What we view as persecution...

Do you know how to deal with the negative people in your life? Do you let them intimidate you and bring you down? Are you in fear of man and often compromise your convictions? If someone criticizes you, don't let it get to you and just see if they have wisdom or if they are just bitter. If you run across the critics, who are bitter and negative, just move on and press forward. We are not to p...
