“All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way, and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.” Isaiah 54:6 (KJV)   Many believers don’t fully understand what happened when Jesus died on the cross.

“And when He is come, He will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement.” John 16:8 (KJV)   If you have been a believer for some time, I believe you must have heard something like: "the Holy Ghost is convicting you of sin." That is not true! The Holy Ghost does not convict the believer of sin. It is the world that He convicts...

“She said, no man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, neither do I condemn thee; go and sin no more.” John 8:10 (KJV)   Often, I have noticed that some church folks turn the fundamental biblical truth upside down. For instance, you hear people suggest that you have to be cleansed before you come to Jesus. That means you have to go and clean yourself first, then come and...

“And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of His Son in your hearts, crying, Abba Father. Wherefore, thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.”  Galatians 4:6-7 (KJV)   Before Christ came, those who related to God were called servants of God and not children of God.

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...

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.
