Knowing the Word of God and believing in it are two different things. When we believe it, God’s power through Scripture transforms our lives and we have hope in salvation and our lives bear spiritual fruit. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/640/29

There’s a difference between saying sorry and meaning it only for a short time and being truly repentant for our actions. God always offers grace, mercy and forgiveness, but we need to not take it lightly. When we are convicted of our sin we need to be sorrowful, repent, and change our behavior.

We need to start by believing that God is for us and not against us, then trust Him in any difficult situation. When we trust God in seemingly impossible circumstances, we see His incredible glory shine through our lives in a way that points back to His work in and through us.

The Word of God has the power to work in us surgically to expose our hearts and the things in us that are sinful, and His Word renews and redeems us. Rather than running from the Word for whatever reason, we must find ourselves in His Word to live a life of sanctification and obedience to Him.

There are monuments set up to remember soldiers who gave their lives for a cause during battles fought here on earth and it is good for us to remember them. We also must keep in mind that there is a constant battle going on for our souls and Jesus gave His life to win that battle for us if we choose His side.

When we ask God along the way before taking any steps in a relationship, He will guide and direct us to the blessing of marriage the way He intended for it to be. When in a relationship, it’s important to talk through all aspects of the future before diving into marriage. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/640/29

God’s desire is that everyone would know Him so that we could all live with Him forever. Sadly, not everyone will choose to follow Him, but for those of us who do we can anxiously await our King who promised to come back for us. While we wait it is important that we tell everyone we can about Him so that they have an opportunity to come with us. To support this ministry financially, visit: https:/...

Rather than worrying about our jobs, home, money, family, or anything else, we must spend time worshipping Jesus and knowing Him deeper so that we can be filled with His peace. When we solely focus on our relationship with Him, He provides for all of our other needs and uses us to reach others.

When we become Christians, it’s as if we are spiritual babies. As we grow in our spiritual life we reach a point of adolescence where we begin to do things on our own. The more we develop an adolescent rebellious attitude the worse off we are in the Body, but when we continue to grow we can help the Body of Christ be taking responsibility and doing our part in the work together.

Jesus paid the ultimate price for our freedom so that we could get out of the inevitable death sentence that sin brought to us. In order to claim this freedom we must first admit that we are guilty and in need of Him. Once we admit that we are dirty with sin, only then, through faith, can He make us clean.

What we need to understand is that we are not owners of what God has given us, which is everything, but rather we are stewards of it. When everyone gives what God calls them to give, everyone is taken care of. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/640/29

The Bible teaches us very clearly that God despises whining and complaining. No matter what our circumstances look like or how hard our trials and suffering may be, we are instructed to respond with thanksgiving and praise.

When we read the Gospel message that Jesus came to earth, lived, died and rose again, it sounds foolish to believe such a story. However, for those of us who hear that story and put our faith in God because of it, the Gospel changes our lives. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/640/29

Many people believe that there are many different ways to get to God and that Jesus, as written about in the Bible, is just one way. The Bible is the only true Word of God that points out that Jesus is the only way to God. If we want to be in relationship with God, we must come to terms that the Bible is truth.

There are so many stories of people in history and currently today that have been persecuted for the sake of their faith in Jesus and their unwillingness to relent on that stand. We live in such a cushy culture that lures us into sitting on the sidelines instead of fighting for what Christ called us to. We must be willing to take a stand for Jesus, no matter the cost.

The wicked lives we lead will eventually overtake us in consequence, but God provides a righteous life under His protection if we would depart from our wicked ways. The choice is ours to remain in our sin or to trust God. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/640/29

When it comes to Christianity, the Body of Christ is made up of all believers who can never be alone once they join that Body. We always have Jesus with us, but we also need to remember to plug in with other believers around us. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/640/29

When we are living in obedience to God and affliction comes, we can be certain that He is using those times to refine us and purify our hearts to make us more like Himself.

We must remember that God can use the suffering we face for His greater purpose of molding and shaping us and we need to persevere. The longer we fight the adversity, the longer we may remain in it. More often then not, the end of the suffering is even greater than the circumstances before the suffering began. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/640/29

This life is full of struggles, and a lot of pain that nobody talks about. Jesus knows our suffering, and He invites us to bring our worries, concerns and pain to Him. When we cast our cares on God, we are not relieved of all of the trials of life but we have Him to carry the load so that we can walk in peace.

Before God even created the world, He had a perfect plan already in place that the blood of Jesus would wash away our sin because He loves us more than we could ever imagine. His plan included each of us, His followers, by name in the Book of Life, and He is calling us to Himself so that we may be saved from the destruction of this world’s end and spend eternity with Him.

The term “coup de grace” is a French term meaning a deathblow for the purpose of ending suffering. When Jesus died on the cross, He offered us a death blow to our life of sin and a new life forever in Him, and all we have to do is accept it.

Scripture shows time and time again where God kept the promises He made to His people.

The Bible teaches that the only way to Heaven is through Jesus Christ, and He has gone before us to prepare a forever home for us. The way we live on this side of Heaven is revealed in the home we have in Heaven. If we live focused on the treasures of this world then all of our treasure is left to die with the rest of this world. But if we live focused on the forever home in Heaven with Jesus, the...

In the Old Testament Law, God said that when harvesting a field, anything left over after the harvesting should be left in the field for the poor, widows and orphans. God has blessed us with so much, but we tend to hold onto everything we have so tightly. Rather than being selfish with what we have, we should share it and bless someone else.
