A teaching taken from the book of Romans.
This is a tribute to a dear person who taught me to think critcally over important issues.
At the time of today's lesson, Daniel and his three friends would have been about twelve to thirteen years old. This is a remarkable story for teenagers and their parents. For teenagers, because it shows the values and benefits of staying true to honor God by your beliefs and actions to honor Him. For parents, because it shows you the outcome of teaching and training your children in the way that they should go thru their relationship in serving God and their fellowship in loving God.
The outcome of this biblical teaching is to identify demonic oppression/influence and overcome it.
Tonight's Bible Study is an Introduction to the Third Spiritual Issue that can hinder the Restoring of My Soul- Part 6. As we shared before there are Four Spiritual Issues that all comes through and affects our soul, which in turn directs our body. They are Generational Curses, Spiritual Error, Emotional Hurts, Demonic Oppression. Tonight, we will discuss the topic: Dealing With Emotional Hurts.
What is the kingdom of God? The Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Even if we are right in our convictions, we are still accountable to how we treat other believers regarding our convictions. It is the Spirt of Christ in Christians that empowers us to love others, to have a higher regard for the conscience of fellow believers, and thus surrender our own preferences but not our convictions. Accept other be...
Otis and. Ann want to welcome you to our FIRST lesson of the THIRD quarter for 2023 on "Health and Finances In Marriage." We appreciate you following and listening to us. We hope that you can spend the entire 25 -30 minutes with us teaching the Biblical Perspective of Togetherness in this marriage class tilted: "Bone From My Bone, Flesh From My Flesh."
The main concern Paul has in the churches of Galatia is legalism. Legalism is man’s way of defining scripture. It is the opposite of giving control to the Holy Spirit. Paul wastes no time in his letter to the Galatians correcting this error and speaking against those perpetrators of the false teaching and those preaching misinformation. Neither should we be slow in addressing known error because a little leaven can quickly affect the whole. We have in our society much misinformation in politics ...

We hope that you can spend the entire 30 minutes with us teaching the Biblical Perspective of Togetherness in this marriage class tilted: "Bone From My Bone, Flesh From My Flesh." HOW YOU SEE YOUR SPOUSE WILL DETERMINE HOW YOU TREAT THEM. I have these questions for husbands. How do you see your wife? Is she a part of you? Is she seen as...
In today's text, Matthew 23:44-52, Jesus is giving very short parables with very few details and no explanations but He asked the disciples after he finished, do that understand? They said, yes they did understand. After this lesson, I pray you will also understand. Let’s see if we can understand what Jesus is saying to us from these short parables. Are these parables applicable to use today?
The fact that Jesus took our curses on the Cross is the essential basis for our being able to break the power of any generational curse that are operating in our lives or in the lives of the people to whom we minister. According to Galatians 3:13, Jesus through the cross of Calvary made it possible for us to receive freedom from ALL generational curses. Your redemption from sin, transgression (trespasses),and iniquities were purchased once and for all by Jesus Christ through His death, burial, a...
God says it’s not good for man to be alone. In this 22 min teaching video, Annquinetta and I explain what God did, define what is a helpmeet and share insights on how to improve your marriage relationship.

Easter is not a holiday.
Many people project really well on the outside. On the outside they are really something - bigger than life. But how great are they on the inside? Jesus Said -greater is He on the INSIDE of you than he that is in the world. Make sure you have Jesus on the inside.
Even in our darkest hour, Jesus can be our greatest light. God is a God of Justice. If we disobey, there will be consequences for the sin of our actions. But God is also a God of righteousness. He will fulfill His promises. His Word will not return void. Isaiah constantly calls on us to look beyond the present, to remain aware of God, and to be confident in the future that God is shaping FOR US. In today's lesson God uses the prophet Isaiah to bring hope to a devastated people that had lost hope...
Annquinetta and I answer tough questions in this teaching session. We give our personal testimonies and provide answers to those tough situations that occur from the consequences of not doing things God's way. We also outline the benefits and the outcome when you do things God's way. While some of us fathers may find becoming a godly father challenging. It is doable when we rely on God through the power of His Holy Spirit. This session will benefit fathers and fathers- to- be who want to become ...
Worry is a common attribute among people, even those that say they are believers. Worry is similar to the actions of a rocking chair; constant movement but you are staying in the same place. Whereas, being concerned will produce actions that address the concern. For many people, this is a hard problem to overcome; especially for those who like to be in control. However, at the root of all worry; there is a lack of trust or faith in God. Worry is something that will or won’t happen; which causes ...
Sometimes rituals and traditions can take the place of the actual presence of God. Each of us has the ability to be hypocritical, to distort scripture, and put our confidences. In things other than God Word. In this lesson we will learn how to avoid making those mistakes and look instead to our bright future.
Micaiah spoke the truth. Even though it resulted in ill treatment and prison, he still spoke the truth. No matter if he got word that the king’s 400 prophets were saying something different than what God was saying to him. He still spoke what God told him. In our democratic society the majority often rules and makes the decisions. However, that does not mean the majority is always correct; e.g., the "Christian" churches for many years agreed with and supported slavery. It is better to stand for ...
This call of God upon Jesus causes us to ask three questions we must answer. Are you ready? Are you prepared? Are you committed?
God has already given you His identity. Explore it, master it, and become what you were created to be and to do.
Good leadership is so vitally needed today. Why do I say good leadership? Because, in our society today we have very poor leadership or worst - no leadership. In today's lesson, we see good leadership in action. Good leadership looks for ways that will be beneficial to the people, not the leader. Most importantly, good leadership is successful, because they listen to God and follow His instructions. This is what Joshua did in our lesson text.
Comments on the effects of jealousy, envy, and pride and ways to counter them.
Paul is on his second missionary journey. The Holy Spirit guides him to where to preach the Gospel. Like Paul, we have to remain sensitive to the Holy Spirit to fulfill the calling on our lives.
Today’s lesson takes place in Capernaum. Capernaum was where Jesus started His home-based ministry operation. As a result of the healings Jesus performed, many people were seeking Him out and following Him. However, instead of just telling this story, my focus will be on the meaning of the event for us today and its application.
Everyone follows someone at sometime in their life. In todays’ lesson we will see followers of Jesus become disciples of Jesus who will carry out the mission of the Kingdom of God
2020 means your vision is really good. For the year 21020 that was not the case for many of our spiritual leaders and their followers. We must have correct spiritual eyesight fo 2021.
Just a few statements that I have on my heart regarding leaving 2020 and entering 2021.
