How I Know God Will Help Me

We are so bugged in our minds sometimes about what other people think of us. We certainly don't think everyone approves of us so when it comes to thinking of God we gravitate toward thinking He doesn't approve of us either. This could NOT be further from the truth. We can't save ourselves. It takes Jesus and Him only to accomplish this great task. Why is it we must now feel that to have God's help in our daily lives we must be some sort of "Super Saint" that is so perfect God just has to help us...

I Can Have Financial Miracles

This should really be a "no brainer" here, but many times we fall back to the same old UNBIBLICAL belief that God wants us either hit rock bottom or be poor or some other foolish belief. This couldn't be further from the truth of the Bible. How many people in the Bible were used of God and were just dirt poor as a result? That should be an easy question to answer! Zero! I"ve been young and been old David said in Psalm 37:25 and i've never seen the Righteous forsaken nor his seed begging bread! O...

I Have To Believe

Its our responsibility to believe. Things just did not happen to people in the Bible because they sat there and didn't do anything. They believed God. God requires faith. Anyone can believe there's a God but God is requiring more than that. Believing that not only does He exists but that He will help you in your time of need. (Hebrews 11:6) The story of David and Goliath was one of faith. David would have never tangled with Goliath if he didn't have faith. 1 Samuel 17 paints the story completely...

You've Got Angels!

Yes you do! We all have to set aside our traditions and get real with ourselves and the Bible. Listen to this fantastic message about how Angels are there FOR YOU. Everyone wants to think they are for little children or for someone else but how little we believe they are SENT to PROTECT us. We should be just as confident that Angels are around us as we are about believing that Jesus will take us to heaven someday! The Bible never expected us to NOT believe in Angels. The Bible takes for granted ...

So You've Made A Mistake

Its true self condemnation will ruin the life of any believer even if its for just moments at a time. We are all so concerned about our heavenly appearance either to others or just to ourselves or even fearing what God may think. Let's step back a minute and think about the obvious from the Bible. How often did Jesus refuse to forgive people? None that we can ever recall, right? He always forgave! Hebrews 13:8 says Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever! Jesus must still be forgiving...

My Prayers Alone

It's just interesting to see in the Bible that the very essence of praying is between YOU and God and that He guarantees you to give you what you ask for! See! Exactly the moment you read that statement you even now thought to yourself "No He never said that" or "He won't do that all the time". The truth is when you study the bible you do see promise after promise GRANTING YOU YOUR REQUESTS! However people still do NOT pray because (and I don't blame them) if you are taught all the time "it migh...

Going Without Is Not Right

Again, check your Bible. To go without is not right. God will always provide abundance. He chooses to do this to show us He is God and that we don't need to be chasing after other so called gods. This is proven over and over in the scriptures but you have to read for yourself to be convinced. I'm not just going to say the Bible supports my message. Quite the contrary this message will be the Bible so you can see for yourself. We have all these crazy ideas of why we believe God will not be there ...

God Will Heal Me!

If we can believe God will take us to heaven by simply believing in Jesus then its absurd to think He won't heal us for the promises are identical. Traditional thinking has gotten the best of us. Knowledge of healing for us all in the bible has been like a deep dark secret to many a christian. Some think healing is NOT in the bible for us while others say it is. The fact of the matter is "what do you think"? Lets find out for ourselves and if it so then let's do the honorable thing and just TRY ...

What Is Faith?

This is so simple yet we make it so hard to give ourselves an excuse for our unbelief. Faith is easily understood as compared to unbelief. Do you believe your friend or not when they tell you something? As we learn our friends we know when they are teasingly telling us the truth or not. Sometimes people we do not know we have to decide do we believe them or not. Stated differently, do i have faith in them or not. Why is it we think faith is so optional when dealing with God? It cannot be or othe...

How Does Psalm 18 Help Me?

Great question? Why is it in your Bible? It's clearly all about David and some problem he was facing. Then why is it in your Bible? That's a great question too! We certainly already believe in God so we don't need to know about how powerful God is. What is the reason for this Psalm? Simply put it was personal for David because it's personal for YOU TOO! We are all but ignorant if we do not take on this Psalm 18 and use it for ourselves. Simple study would understand David as King of Israel sent ...

Our Redemption

This is the personal side of Redemption! It's so important that we believe for our own selves how great this redemption truly is. Who are we to determine how little Jesus did for us by assuming all there is can only be at ticket to heaven someday. That alone seems fishy if that were all redemption includes. Some even say Redemption is only then the heart of a person being changed into something more useful for God. Well, these things are certainly included in the effects of Redemption, but there...

The Power of Blessing

This is so wonderful that any child or adult has now the ability to share the wonderful story of Jesus by simply saying "look at me and what Jesus is doing blessing me so"! Somehow over the years we've lost this fundamental part of the message but much like Martin Luther discovered "The just shall live by faith" its been rediscovered by so many through reading the Bible that we are indeed supposed to all be richly blessed. Everyone of us can claim difficulties and be the champion for who's had i...

All These Blessings

We can deny all these blessings all we want to publicly or even privately but they'll still be sitting here waiting on each one of us the moment we release all our unbelief. When did it ever become our responsibility to bless ourselves? We live in a society where the miraculous has to be completely explained. Try to take a step back and realize that God really exists and that He really wants to bless you. Stop making excuses that you are such a sinner and God doesn't want to bless you. That's ri...

The Enemy - A Fallen Angel

The truth is God is much more powerful than the Devil could ever hope to be. Many times we believe we are simply at the mercy of this merciless enemy and its not the truth. Redemption is a financial word. It simply means to purchase. We have been purchased legally from the hand of this merciless enemy but we need to act as though it is the truth. That's all faith is. Just pretend (shall i say) the Bible is telling you the truth. Act like a child and play like scriptures mean what they say. This ...

Your Right To Peace

Sometimes as Christians we just don't get it. We feel we're the enemy ourselves to God when in fact we are His children. We are so sure that life's problems are just a bag of punishment we all deserve that we quit believing in the simpleness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It gets ridiculous when you get to studying the Bible and finding out that its our own fault for not bringing our troubles to the Lord. We know we can't earn our way to heaven but I'll be John Brown if we both don't think at ti...

Healing For Me

Its difficult to realize Jesus will heal you and I. This is what is called faith. You'll never experience your faith for healing if you don't take time to read about what the Bible says about your own guaranteed healing. David was so bold as to say in Psalms 103 "who forgives all my sins and HEALS all my diseases". David called this a benefit and also MADE himself remember it. Oh how fitting this is for us today. We can get so wrapped up in our hurts that we forget we have a benefit from God to ...

Why Should I Be Happy?

The Bible will make you a very happy person. Just knowing God will help you all the days of your life and will make you the happiest person on earth! Ask and you shall receive that your JOY MAY BE FULL! ... Jesus said "That my joy might remain in you". What? Was Jesus actually a happy person? Of course! He wants you happy too!

God Gave You And I Authority

Genesis chapter 1 declares this wonderful fact. However your own failures will work on you and make you think you are meant to fail and lose and just have a terrible life altogether, but Jesus said "I've come that you might have Life and have it more Abundantly". Its up to us to act. We are MORE THAN CONQUERORS through Him that loved us.

The Love Of God

God really does love you. You'll always have trouble loving others until you finally figure out God loves you so much He wants to help you with you daily struggles! We lose our tempers sometimes because we get frustrated with our own problems and become unlovely sometimes! When you discover God loves you and really will help you with your own problems you'll soon see how to love others like God wants you to.

The Lord Will help Me

Why is it we feel the Lord will help everyone else but US in times of trouble. David didn't feel that way. He insisted the Lord was always going to help him and he was very impatient about it. We would do ourselves a favor if we acted more like him instead of feeling so alone in trouble. Expect the Lord to get you out of trouble every time!

I Am A Friend Of God

We do not even need a Bible if we continue to believe God could care less about us. Condemnation can get so great and common in our lives that we actually believe God never loved us to begin with. Oh how wrong that thinking actually is. God demonstrated His love toward us while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. For God so loved the World.... and yet another place it says "who loved me and gave Himself for me". Wrong believing here as you know gets you no where fast! If you don't think you'...

Why Is My Faith So Important?

Faith is so simple. We use it every day. However, when it comes to God many times we feel we are just to not expect anything, but rather take life's hand no matter how its dealt to us. Many believe this infact is faith, but it couldn't be further from trusting the Lord. Anyone can accept difficulties in their lives, but it takes faith to believe God has something better for you than a life full of heartaches. When we read God's Word its like a different world! Exactly! Start believing what you s...

Prayers That Work

Prayer in the Bible is not trial and error. Neither is it termed "yes, no or maybe". Biblical prayer is recieve what you ask for and not take no for an answer. "Is anything to hard for the Lord"? The easiest thing to do is continue to convince ourselves that God doesn't want to grant us what we ask for. Stay ahead of the unbelief. Stop believing things like this. Become more like King David who never thought his prayers would be unanswered. That kind of thinking was for the idols people worshipp...

God Will Help You

Why is it we believe more in ourselves than in Jesus? So often we think Jesus just won't help me because of some reason or another. Thats funny! Hebrews 13:8 says Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever. No one that ever came to Jesus for help did He turn down. Stop trying to be the first. Your unbelief will only delay your miracles that you need right now. Jesus will not every run out of love for you nor miracles. He said He would do more miracles that you may MARVEL! Are we done mar...

Forgiveness You Can Count On

Dont ever worry! Jesus is your High Priest and He knows your shortcomings. Condemnation is real and it originates from the Devil. You will be your own worst enemy if you do not take time to believe God's Word concerning forgiveness. Why is it we feel we are supposed to forgive everyone, but one little mistake we make send God packing we feel and He doesn't forgive us. Well, that's simply not true. "Forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us"! Its that simple! I'm supp...

Forgiveness Is Yours And Miracles Too

So much of the time we feel because of our mistakes this somehow stops the miraculous in our lives. If that's really so when do we get the miraculous back? Truly to think this way is utterly absurd when you look at all the sinners Jesus helped. Which ones did He turn down because they were too sinful or perhaps had recently sinned? Not hardly! Our self punishment will not move Jesus one inch. When we quit pointing the condemning finger at ourselves and start trusting in Jesus for His help we'll ...

Angels and You

Sometimes we feel we are so alone, but we are NOT. There's special angels assigned to us all. They are under command of God to protect us. Do we ever NEED IT!
