Bible Reading vs. Bible Study

30349745bible_reading_man200x133.jpg?width=200First, recognize that Bible reading and Bible study are both important, but different. In order to grow, you need to read the Bible every day as part of your time with God -- your devotions or Quiet Time. During this daily time with God I recommend prayer, wide Bible reading, praise, thanksgiving, confession, and meditation -- these are ways to reach out to God with your spirit. Bible reading is one way of letting God refresh your spirit and

Fear can be overcome. Even very fearful Christians can become brave. In my own experience of overcoming fear, I've found wisdom which I hope, dear reader, will help you to find victory in your walk with God.

The Effect of Fear on the Believer

God wants his children to do his will. However, fear can interfere with our trust in God; Men can act in disobedience, and even go completely astray because of fear. They can doubt whether they should trust God's leading. They wonder, for

Most are familiar with the scripture from Galatians 6:2,"Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. "But what happens when this is out of balance, or you have a very tender heart and carrying other's burdens makes you feel heavy? For the last several years, I have undergone many emotional and trying times. Previously, I was the "burden bearer" for everyone in my family, with my friends, and with my ministry. However, carrying the loads of everyone while I wa

SEEKING TRUE HUMILITY 

Psalm 145:14, The Lord upholds all who fall, and raises up all who are bowed down.

The secret in serving God is to remain humble in times of great success or in failure. Being honest and admit to God from your heart that without Him you are nothing. That is true humility. When we fall we tend to think we are so bad that God cannot forgive us. That is false humility. True humility will acknowledge our successes, failures, lowliness and our complete dependence

During His earthly ministry, Jesus Christ taught His disciples, at their request, how to pray. The ALL KNOWING Lord included the following words in His teaching, 
"Our Father in heaven... , 
Give us this day Our Daily Bread". Matthew 6:11.

These words are worthy of serious considerations. It is a very rich and highly profitable statement. It demonstrates the deeper love the Lord has for His people. 

It is also a way to express His good thoughts towards man. Now, let us conside

You May Not Agree That America Is Broken

I have come to the conclusion, and to be frank I am not too bothered if you do not agree with me, that the only thing we can absolutely agree on is that we are eternally disagreeable.

Whatever I say or do, or even think or believe, there are those who will jump to oppose, to argue against or to repudiate; even when they have no real basis for doing so.

Let us be absolutely honest and admit that people have acquired a tendency, a relish, a passion to tear down rather than to

Giving Thanks in All of Your Circumstances

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Not always an easy scripture to swallow, especially if you have gone through long trials and debilitating circumstances. The Apostle Paul in this scripture was not teaching that we should thank God for everything that happens to us, but in everything. Evil does not come from God, so we should not thank Him for it, but when evil strik

Being successful is something we all desire. Everyone, at least everyone I know, wants to succeed at what they are doing. Most of all they want to succeed in life.

John 15:19 (NKJV) 
"If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. "

If you were like the world, vain, earthly, sensual, given to pleasure, wealth, ambition, the world would not oppose you. But because you are influenced by different principles then the world the world hates you. You are different from them therefore the world is not your friend. You are motivated by t

One phrase we are all too familiar with is" there is always tomorrow" we hear it use quite a bit. But this phrase "why put off for tomorrow what you can do today" is a better quote. 

We are all guilty of procrastinating at times. But most times, procrastination is the result of laziness. We have no reason to procrastinate. In short, procrastination is a bad habit that can have eternal effects. the Bible is clear that, because the Lord ordained work for us, laziness is a sin.

One area of God's work that suffers serious attacks is marriage. The home is the target of the regular and consistent enemy of man, the Devil. He knows fully that if a marriage fails, all members of that home are his potential disciples. They can easily fall prey to his antics. 

Every serious minded fellow craves a lasting home but are not aware of many things involved to achieve this. So, let us consider the first of the three stages of every marriage. Note that each stage demand's different ac
