“And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:17 (KJV)   When you see God as your Father, it brings you into a position where you can receive what He has made available for you. Beloved, if you have God as your Father, then you have everything. You are His beloved son! In the gospel of John chapter 10,...

"I and my Father are one. Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him." John 10:30-31 (KJV)     We have always known God as God, as our El-Shaddai: the Almighty, the Possessor of heaven and earth, Jehovah Elohim: God the Creator, Jehovah Jireh: our great Provider, Jehovah Rapha: our Great Physician, Jehovah Shalom: our Peace. Jehovah Nissi: our Victorious Banner. Jehovah Shammah: Ever-Present One. These are different...

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. Ephesians 4:29 KJV   When you read that scripture, you may think that it is when you are relating with other people. No! It has to do even with yourself. Let no corrupt communication proceed from you to yourself or another person. Corrupt...

“Jabez prayed to the God of Israel: ‘Bless me, O bless me! Give me land, large tracts of land. And provide your personal protection – don’t let evil hurt me.’ God gave him what he asked.”  1 Chronicles 4:10 (MSG)   I want to challenge you, as you journey through life, never accept anything contrary to what God has ordained for you. Stand your ground in the victory...

“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:”  1 Peter 2:2 (KJV)     Child of God, I desire that you grow spiritually and attain the heights that God has planned for you. But until you desire it and work towards it, nothing will happen. A newborn baby eats several times throughout the day. So, the Bible uses this analogy to paint...

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”  Colossians 3:16 (KJV)   Today, I want to charge you to feed your spirit. You will agree with me that we live in a time when there is a high level of distraction everywhere you turn....

“Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.”  1John 4:17 (KJV)   Beloved, as long as you are a believer, you have received the Spirit of Christ. The book of Galatians 4:6 says: “And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts,...

“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10 (NKJV)   The issue of identity is one that we know to be very essential. To a great extent, your identity defines you and it forms the basis of what you are known by. In other words, as a believer, your nature, qualities, beliefs,...

“Thou, therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.” 2Timothy 2:1 (KJV)   If you take a close look around you today, you will notice that the activities of the enemy seem to have increased. But the good news, however, is that the grace of God abounds even much more. This is the best time for the believer to be alive because while...

"Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” Mark 13:31 (KJV) In today’s world, we have a lot of manipulations going on. However, I am old enough to know that all that glitters are not gold. That is why one of the things we keep emphasizing in this ministry is the integrity of the Word of God. The Word of God does not...
