“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10 (KJV)   Good works are the things God had pre-ordained before you were born. In other words, you are born for good works. So how dare you run yourself down and say because of your environment, you won't tower above where you...

"And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive." Exodus 1:22 (KJV)   I come your way this beautiful day to make it abundantly clear that our God is still in absolute control. You don't have any reason to panic despite what you see or hear. The God you serve is...

"But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ." Ephesians 4:7 (KJV)   God has given every person gifts, talents, and abilities so that every person can contribute their quota to the Kingdom. What that simply means is that every person is wired for something. There is a place for you to function in the Kingdom agenda. Your responsibility...

"Observe people who are good at their work – skilled workers are always in demand and admired; they don't take a backseat to anyone." Proverbs 22:29 (MSG)   Now is the time to position yourself to do things better and to take your place.

"Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he”. Proverbs 29:18 (KJV)   One thing that will enable you to accomplish your purpose is to have a clear vision of what God wants you to do and be intentional about it. For too long we have complained about how things are not working, but the time has come for...

"And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the gentiles by his ministry” Acts 21:19 (KJV)   One primary reason God allowed you to stay here on planet earth after you gave your heart to Christ is that He wants you to become an example of Christ on earth.

"And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar" 1 Kings 3:4 (KJV)   God is always aware of what we give to Him or the things we do for the kingdom. From the text, you can see that Solomon, though a king, knew he had to give to God...

"But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully" 2 Corinthians 9:6 (KJV)   One of the lies the devil is sowing in the hearts of believers today is the mentality that we live in a time of economic recession and so there is no need to stretch when it comes to giving. The last...

"We love him, because he first loved us." 1 John 4:19 (KJV)   Our capacity to love is not of ourselves. It is because God first loved us, and His love is shed abroad in our hearts. The world cannot love because they do not have the capacity to love. You may be wondering how possible that is. The question is "what is the love of God"? Do you understand...

"Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" Psalm 133:1 (KJV)   The place of unity in the Body of Christ cannot be overemphasized, how much more unity within the local assembly?
