• When Did the Fire Go Out?

    When did we become comfortable with being cold? There was a time when we did not need to be begged to pray. We looked forward to being alone with God. We could remain in His presence for hours, not because we had a list of urgent needs, but because we loved Him and enjoyed His…

  • The Instruction Before the Intervention

    What if the answer to the prayer you keep praying is waiting on an instruction you have not obeyed? We love divine intervention, but we do not always talk about divine instruction. Yet when you look through Scripture, you’ll see the two repeatedly meet.

  • WHEN GOD HAS HAD ENOUGH

    There is something about a calculated attack that frightens us more than an obvious one. It is one thing to know that someone does not want you to succeed and another to discover that they have thought through their moves, closed possible exits and appear to be waiting for you at the only place left…

  • The Stripes Were His, The Healing Is Yours.

    The stripes of Jesus are more than a story to remember; they are the price that was paid for your healing. Those stripes were not a small part of His journey to the cross; His body was torn so that broken bodies could be healed. He accepted pain so we wouldn’t remain in pain. The…

  • Let God Arise

    Scripture: Psalm 68:1 “Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.” — Psalm 68:1 (KJV) The enemy may rage, gather support and make moves that appear difficult to reverse. But Psalm 68 does not call for a stronger counterattack. It presents one answer to all the…

  • Why Do the Heathen Rage?

    The rage of the enemy is not evidence that God has lost control. Psalm 2 presents nations gathering, rulers plotting and opposition becoming intense. Still, all the rage on earth changes nothing about the throne in heaven.

  • The Blood That Put Hell to Shame

    From the beginning, the kingdom of darkness has resisted the purposes of God. Whenever God raises a man, announces a promise, or sets a purpose in motion, the enemy seeks to frustrate it. Pharaoh tried to destroy Moses before he could deliver Israel. Haman secured a decree to wipe out the Jews before God’s covenant…

  • The Blood That Restored Access

    There is something strange about many believers today. They confess that Christ died for them, yet they approach God like strangers seeking an audience with a king. They measure God’s willingness to receive them by how well they have performed that week. On good days they come boldly; on bad days they withdraw in silence.…

  • The Stain You Cannot Wash

    Some stains disappear with water; others require soap, pressure, and repeated washing. But sin is not a stain on the body; it is a stain on the conscience, the heart, and the record of a person before God.

  • Vengeance Against The Power That Wastes Increase

    Israel planted, but they did not harvest. They laboured, but others consumed the fruit. Each time the crops were ready, the Midianites, Amalekites, and the people of the East invaded the land, destroyed the produce, and carried away the livestock. They did not come to cultivate the land; they came to consume what Israel had…
