This is a nitro pill for those who feel overwhelmed. The cures for the condition are to reflect on and remember what God has already done, hear His lovingkindness, ask for His leading, and take refuge in Him by abiding in His Word. Psalm 143 VF-2169
When we're walking around saying, why is this happening? Why do the wicked prosper and those who love the Lord suffer so much? Psalm 37 reminds us how to make it through the tough times. Our suffering doesn't go unnoticed. God sees, He knows, and He upholds those who love Him. Fourteen years of ministry and the wisdom of David in his old age show us that God takes care of His ow...
God appoints reoccurring seasons in the life of the believer. They are tied together in a set order to permanently heal us and bring us to completion in Christ. He kills our spiritual diseases (our wisdom, pride and self-righteousness) and then He heals; He tears down our idols and then builds up a sure foundation on Christ. He's with us when we weep and may even cause us to mou...
The message begins with recounting the story of a congregant that you were trying help with his own personal issues. He essentially says that he thinks he is smarter than any of the staff and you. This message is a warning about intellectual pride. We are to be cautious to not get puffed up in ou...
The importance of surrendering yourself to God, rather than following your own "I thought" ideas, is highlighted in 2 Kings 5 in the various reactions of four figures: the maid who served Naaman's wife made a bold declaration of faith; the king of Israel thought highly of himself and assumed the worst; Naaman, full of pride, did not listen to instructions, but eventually submitt...
Even a little pride can be enough to prevent growth. Pride manifests itself as presumption before God, love of human praise, inability to say "I was wrong", and a spirit that appears to possess all knowledge. God's cure for this type of disease is to listen to the corrective Spirit, to have a proper view of God, and to not have resentment towards God for rooting out pride. VF-20...
Paul prayed for God to take away the "thorn in the flesh" that was troubling him, a messenger of satan, yet God allowed the buffeting as a means of checking his pride. God knows what we are capable of, and He has a reason for allowing pain to afflict our flesh. God's promise is abundant grace to d...
Contrary to man's traditional interpretations of the Beatitudes, they are not a list of works we can strive to do to make it into heaven: they are what God does in us. Christ methodically outlines the mindset and personality of the citizens of heaven who will inherit the...
Giving is a form of worship, and it is intrinsically tied to your faith. You are either a person who would hold something back from God or a person who has been changed by Him and gives without coercion. Don't get puffed up in pride over your giving. God wa...
Do not take your salvation for granted and get complacent lest you engage in spiritual pride. It takes vigilance to stay by the stuff. In the Old Testament the children of Israel drifted away repeatedly and much of the church in America today has departed from the ways of God, but there is still t...
From their conception there was bad blood between Jacob, aka "Israel" and his brother Esau, aka "Edom." Tensions between their descendants continued after their death and run all the way through the Bible. Obadi...
The church of Jesus Christ has been infiltrated by Israel's ministry of foreign affairs and non-Christian religious groups that are paying evangelical pastors to promote pro-Israel propaganda and Christian Zionism. This is very dangerous and it's contributing to many errors within the church, such as the claim that the Jewish people are God's chosen people. This directly contrad...
After the destruction of Sodom, Lot's daughters tried to take matters into their own hands by repopulating through incest with their father. The descendants of those children were the Moabites and Ammonites. They were pagans that warred with God's people and robbed them, but there were some like Ru...
Everyone starts out reading the Bible on a superficial level, but when we go beyond the surface and Jesus' words begin to take root, they become oxygen for the Christian. This is especially true for the message of forgiveness that Jesus preached in His sermon on the mount. Read more
God called Joshua and gave him a commission. He was obedient to God's will and when the challenges before him looked enormous, he trusted in God. Today's church needs more people like Joshua, that will face the unknown and go forward with courage, knowing that He is with us. Read more
This message challenges us to rethink the way God transforms the believer. Transformation doesn't occur in one singular, dramatic event. It's an ongoing, life-long process, unique to each individual. The Apostle Paul is a perfect example of this.
The cross of Jesus Christ and His resurrection are inextricably linked. It is His power over death and sin. Those that reject the message of the cross are in the process of perishing and to them, it is foolishness. For the believer that stays connected in faith, the message of the cross is the pro...
If we're going to study the person of Antichrist, we must start by studying the deceiver of the brethren, Satan, who will manifest himself incarnate in the person of Antichrist. In this message, we will learn Satan's names and characteristics, as well as the names, titles, characteristics, and origins of Antichrist. All of this wi...
When Christ returns, it will be swift and sudden. In three parables, Jesus warns believers to be prepared for His return, because there will be consequences for those who were lazy and complacent. If you do not spend the time to study His word, you are a Christian in name only.
Based on what's going on in the world, specifically the globalists' agenda to control every single person on the face of the earth, it's very clear that we're moving at warp speed towards the return of Jesus Christ. The Bible tells us why He must return, and as His church, it's our responsibility to wake people up about the globalists' ag...
