The faith these people had made history. They never knew their faith would not only be spoken of throughout the whole world, but also throughout history. We look back today at a church that had great faith, such a great faith that

One reason Christianity is not making much of a difference in our society is because many believers are okay with the status quo. Most feel they are good Christians as long as they are like everyone else. However, the

Those living in God’s blessings often don't know what they have until they have lost it. When looking back through history, one must wonder if those who were part of great works knew how great the work was while they were in

When Philip led the eunuch to Christ, he did not walk away never to see him again. Instead, we see him riding in the chariot and teaching the next steps to his walk with Christ. Had Philip not taken the time to be with this young believer, he may have never seen him

There are a few things this verse is not saying. This verse is not saying you won’t have to pass through the waters. This verse does not say that God will take you around the waters that

Purging is necessary to being fruitful. My mother loved plants, and I remember her often pulling off dead leaves and replanting plants that had become root-bound in a pot so the plant could thrive and bring out the beauty she desired. God compares the Christian life to a fruit-bearing tree. God wants

There are some things that can hurt your eyes that will keep you from having good vision. When I was a child, my parents often told me to look away when someone was welding because they said it would hurt my eyes. They were concerned enough to caution me from

One of the most misdefined words that believers often use is the word commendeth. Many say this word means to show. In other words, they will say that God showed His love toward us. It is true that God showed His love toward us, but this is not what this

The Christian life is not easy, and it is not successfully lived without the believer guarding certain things in their life. When you look at the nations that Joshua and the children of Israel were about to conquer, these nations had lost the battle before the battle had begun. They lost the

God promised Israel that if they did right, He would set them on high above all nations of the earth. God was saying that by doing right, they would be at the top for all others to look at, and

Many are looking for God in the wrong place. They wonder where God is in hard times, and yet He is always where He has always been. God never changes. Psalm 15:4 promises, In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not. If God changeth not, then we are

God set a principle in the Garden of Eden that many leaders ignore. The Scriptures teach the essential principle about Adam being alone in Genesis 2:18, And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. God saw that

The Christian life is about making the right choices. Nobody lives the Christian life by accident, but we live the Christian life by choice. For instance, I choose to accept Christ as my

John 5:20 said about Jesus, For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. You will notice that God the Father said Jesus would do greater works than the works that He

The mindset of Moses was, come with me. Moses said to his brother-in-law, we are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with us. Moses looked for a

God has appointed seasons for everything. The seasons of the year are appointed by God for a reason. God had an appointed season for the Passover to be observed. God expected His people to observe this Passover at

As Jesus passed through Samaria and Galilee, he encountered ten men who were lepers. Leprosy was a deadly disease, which was actually a death sentence in these days. If you had leprosy, you knew that it was just a matter of time before the leprosy rotted your body away until you died. However, when Jesus passed by

Several times in Leviticus 11, God tells the Israelites that something was unclean to them. This statement means that which was unclean to them was not unclean to others. God knew that if they were to be successful in following Him, there

Fighting sin is a daily battle of the believer. However successful we are at fighting sin will determine how much God can use us in His service. Though nobody is sinless, we don't have to allow sin to

Exodus 40:34 says, Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. The glory of the LORD filling that tabernacle was undoubtedly one of the most amazing things to be a part of. God’s glory was so thick that Moses was
