Now Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the Lord, more than all who were before him. 1 Kings 16:30 Continue reading
Elijah
How often we doubt!
And Zacharias said to the angel, “How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years.” Luke 1:18
This scripture reveals a major flaw in all of us – unbelief. Continue reading

Preceding others!
Everyone knows the name of Billy Graham. But do you know Mordecai Ham?
He is the evangelist that was preaching when Billy came forward and accepted Jesus as Savior.
Everybody has someone that precedes them – that paves the way for them. Billy Graham, DL Moody, Tony Evans, or Chuck Swindoll all had someone that paved the way before them and help lead them to Christ.
Even Jesus had someone go before Him.
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord. Mal 4:5
That was fulfilled in the person of John the Baptist.
John’s father, Zacharias was told,
He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, ‘to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,’ and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. Luke 1:17
Today you will go before someone. Will you pave the way to the Lord for them? Will you show the way?
Think about that before you act or say something today. You may be just the person to lead the next Billy Graham to Christ.
Abba, use me to point the way for others. In Jesus name, YES&AMEN
Fullest Potential – Humility
And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. Matt 4:2
Although the Savior used fasting from food as a way of humility, it is nothing more than denying yourself and depending on God. Continue reading
If it’s called a Fast then why is it so slow? (pt 1)
I believe each Christian seeks a closer relationship with Father. Prayer and Bible reading are excellent ways to begin – there is no denying!
But look what God says in 2 Chron 7:14 – if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land. Continue reading
Who is Jesus to you?
Now Jesus and His disciples went out to the towns of Caesarea Philippi; and on the road He asked His disciples, saying to them, “Who do men say that I am?” Mark 8:27
That’s a good question. Answers can be very different and, yet, all correct.
Someone may answer, “He is Lord” and that is right. Continue reading
Prayer’s Power!
Do you believe there is power in prayer?
If you are going to claim the words of Paul and say, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Phil 4:13) then you need to stand by that claim. Continue reading
The Power of Say-er – The Power of Prayer
I have experienced the power of prayer firsthand. I know what it is like to be prayed for and I know what it is to pray for another.
The Bible says so much about prayer. Prayer is first mentioned in Genesis chapter 20 where Abimelech is told that Abram will pray for him. Continue reading
Supply and Demand
There are many Bible stories that seem very far-fetched! If I had not experience the saving grace of God, the forgiveness through Jesus, and the filling of the Holy Spirit, I would find it easy to be an atheist.
But because I am continuing to experience a relationship with the Lord God, I not only believe in Him but in His word. Continue reading
