Real Truth with Ruth

Do you pray for your leaders? Do you pray specifically for the leaders you do not like or disagree with their political stance? How are you praying for those leaders? As you pray for leaders, do you pray for their destruction or salvation?  It can be easy to fall into a mindset of cursing leaders who are making decisions that go against our belief system. However, in Jeremiah, we find a roadmap fo...

God is more concerned about what you believe than you are! What happens when God challenges your belief system? What lengths will God go to to help us see the situation through His eyes?

What does it mean to take a stance? What does it mean not to compromise? How can you do this as an individual? What does this mean for your nation? What is God’s heart for you?

When we live life His way, it impacts us as individuals and our nations.  Today’s episode will strengthen and...

We know God planted two trees in the Garden of Eden. We also know that Adam and Eve were forced to leave the perfect location where God had placed them due to compromise.

Is there a tree of life?   For additional i...

However, what we do at that moment has consequences d...

What would change in your life if you fully allowed the Bible to guide your thoughts? How would this decision impact how you think about God, yourself, relationships, and the world around me?

Do you ever become impatient with God? As much fun as it can be to dream with God, it can also be frustrating. It is not unusual for things to unfold differently than what we expect.

When people look at you, who do they see? Do they see a wimp or a warrior? When Goliath looked at David, he immediately judged David as being unworthy. However, David knew what and who he carried.

As we dive into the Word of God, we often find a person that we can relate to. It may be the prostitute Rahab, shepherd David, educated Paul, or doubting Thomas. As that connection is made, there is usually a chuckle as we read their account. We can see ourselves doing the same thing. If you are someone who periodically sticks their foot in their mouth, you may relate to Peter, who is the subject...

To do this, we need wisdom and discernment.  Psalm 37:34 reminds us not to be impatient for the Lord to act; however...
