Jeremiah 10:3-4 KJV “For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.” Some have asked the…
What’s Keeping You Out?
Let’s look at some hindrances that keep us from receiving God’s best.
The Cost of a New Season
We all enjoy having new things, new clothes, new places and new opportunities, but sometimes our excitement can outweigh our preparation.
Jesus is Praying for You
Isn’t it amazing to know that Jesus is praying for us, taking our confession of faith before the Father and pleading on our behalf.
What You Compromise to Keep — You Compromise to Reap
We all hold strong convictions about certain topics either based on upbringing or experience. These convictions become ingrained in our belief system and become a moral compass for our decision-making. But what happens when an argument just as strong as your conviction comes to challenge your truth? We are living in such a complex time…
Season Finale
In the western world we are quite familiar with the season finale of a television series. There are a set number of episodes that a network will ask a show to deliver within a specified number of months. The finale is the ending of the storyline, where conflicts are resolved, and unanswered questions are revealed….
Die, Die, Die
I’m thoroughly convinced we are in one of the greatest seasons that the body of Christ has ever seen. Yes, it may seem like the world is in an uproar and things are going crazy, but this is only a ploy of the enemy to keep us distracted. Satan is well aware that the time…

Imagine this… twelve long, excruciating…
Is There a Difference Between Spirit and Soul?
1 Thessalonians 5:23 – “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” This verse of scripture gives a distinct separation between the entities that make up an individual. We are spirit beings…
My Heart Passion
As a pastor and minister of the Gospel, I am seeing an increase in spiritual “burnout.” Believers have become so consumed with the work of the kingdom that we’ve forgotten the worship of the King. We can find ourselves running here and there trying to fulfill our Christian duty to serve the Lord and our…
What Have You Allowed to Trouble You?
Did you know that you were supposed to trouble your troubles and not allow your troubles to trouble you? You were given access to the authority that was delegated to the Church at the moment of salvation. Scripture tells us that all things were placed under the feet of Christ’s body. If we make up…
It’s Not In Vain
Why do we follow the Word and adhere to the principles written within its pages? Does it avail to our betterment in life? These are questions that may come to your mind when things don’t seem to line up with how you thought they ought to go. The Word of God has never lost its…
