The word “revival” is once again being heard in various areas around this nation and also around the world. Many people have heard about “revivals”, but not many actually know or understand what a real revival actually is. The Webster’s Dictionary gives us their definition of the word “revival”, but first we must understand the word “revival” comes from the word “revive”.…

King David revealed a tremendously important spiritual concept in Psalm 119:9-11 (please read). Here David asked the eternal spiritual question, “how can a young man (or any man or woman) cleanse their way?” Then in the same verse David gave the eternal spiritual answer, “By taking heed according…

What motivates us to do what we do? Why do we do what we do? What is our motive for serving God? Why do we serve God? What are we really looking for, relief or relationship? Some people are looking only for fire insurance! Do people serve God only for what He can do for them or do they serve Him for what He’s already done for them on the cross? Serving God is not based on…

So, here we are in the first week of November just a few days away from one of the most important elections in the life of this nation. This election on November 8, 2022 called “the midterms” could determine the life or death of this nation. The next election, if we have another election, will be the Presidential election in November 2024. This election, if takes place,…

By now every Christian should realize that we are living in the last of the last days. The Apostle Paul prophetically described “our day” and he called it “perilous times” in 2 Timothy 3:1-7 (please read). Jesus described “our day” by saying it will be “like the days of Noah” in Matthew 24:37 (please read). Moses described the days of Noah in Genesis 6:1-12 (please read).…

Have you ever wondered or asked yourself the question, “Will I be able to recognize my wife, my children and grandchildren in Heaven”? Will I recognize my father and my mother and other relatives? Have you ever really thought about that? Well, I truly believe that we will recognize our spouses,…

Just the title of this message makes us think of what is written in Revelation 19:15 as John describes the Lord Jesus Christ at His second coming. “Now out of His mouth, goes a sharp sword…” Notice in verse fourteen also, “And the armies of Heaven (that’s us), clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.” Here it is recorded that the armies of…

The Apostle Paul made a very profound statement in 1 Corinthians 15:33 as he said, “Do not be deceived: Evil company corrupts good habits.” Notice here how Paul begins with, “do not be deceived”, because “evil company” is also deceptive company. I believe Paul’s message to us is if we keep company with evil company that do evil things then eventually, we will be deceived…

People for thousands of years have been deceived and placed in bondage by a thing called “False Loyalty”! God’s people who live with false loyalty are those who continue to religiously remain connected to a religious system that either God has never been in or that God has moved on from to another level, and they still remain satisfied to be committed to an empty…

The Apostle Paul made a small statement that revealed a tremendously huge principle. In II Corinthians 5:7 Paul said, “For we walk by faith, not by sight.” As you probably know, many times as we walk or live our daily lifestyles, we find ourselves faced with situations that overwhelm us and seem impossible to overcome or solve.  These situations that we’re faced with…
