Everything was made ready for him, but he did not know it. So, he toiled all night and caught nothing. He went in the night...

“And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:17 (KJV) When Jesus came on the scene, without doing anything and without performing any miracle, God declared: “This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased.” Jesus had not done anything.

“…because as he is, so are we in this world.” 1 John 4:17b (KJV) Christ is the head of the body. The Church is the body. The Head and the body are one.

If you are not spiritually sensitive, even when God shows up in your bedroom, you will still...

Matthew 6:31 (KJV)   When Jesus said: take no thought saying what I shall eat, what I shall wear. He was saying: “Stop the worry! I am bigger than all you want.” He was saying, in essence: “Don’t insult me! Are you saying that I am only...

“For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.” Hebrews 4:10 (KJV)   There is a place of rest for God’s people. It is high time we stopped stressing ourselves, running from pillar to post as if God is a liar. It’s high time you stopped flinging papers and doctor's reports at every person’s face...

“For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.” Exodus 12:12 (KJV)   Beloved, put on your imagination for a minute; the Children of Israel were leaving Egypt after several plagues and demonstrations of God’s...

“Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem-judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.” Ruth 1:1 (KJV)   Elimelech took his two sons and Naomi his wife, and they left for Moab because there was a famine in Bethlehem-Judah....
