"Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves." Matthew 10:16 (KJV) Wisdom is the principal thing, and the Bible enjoins everyone to get wisdom. And guess what? Jesus has been made unto us wisdom. Many times the believer, in an attempt not to hurt people play the fool. Believers allow the devil...

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.” Hebrews 4:14-15 (KJV) Jesus can identify with your pains. That is...

“Now this, “He ascended” —what does it mean but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?” Ephesians 4:9 (NKJV) One word from God can change anybody’s life.

“Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." Mark 9:23 (NKJV) I have come your way today with an assurance from God's word that you are coming out of every difficult situation, every challenge, and every pressure the enemy might have brought your way. If God has said “all things are possible” and not some things, He means...

“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:” Philippians‬ Today, for the fourth day running I am calling on you to be your...

“And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying, Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water. And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.” Matthew‬ There are things we often ignore,...

“Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.” Ezekiel‬ As beautiful and as good as the mountain top is, the same place can become a comfort zone. If you are not careful,...

“When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him. And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.” Matthew‬ We must understand that the mountaintop is a good place to be, only...

“Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” Holiness happened to you on the day you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour.
