James 2:14-17 “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical […]

Acts 4:12 We all have a story of “how Jesus saved our lives”. For some, it may have happened as a young child attending church with a family member; for others, they may have had a tragic experience happen in their life or maybe Jesus dug them out of an addiction. Whatever our story may […]
Wait on the Lord
Psalm 27:13-14 In the scripture today, we have a glorious reminder that God does have good planned for us in this life, we just have to be patient for it. It also says that in our waiting, we become stronger. We don’t know His plan or His timing, and that can be discouraging when something […]
Patient Endurance
“So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has promised. (Hebrews 10:35-36 NLT). If any of you know me you would know patience […]
Is it Luck or God’s Favor?
John 1:16 I have had this conversation before but never really came to a clear answer, just speculation and some debate. I, myself, am an unbeliever of “luck”. I believe whatever happens to us, even the smallest favor, is all God. God’s favor is much more powerful than luck. We’ve all said in many occasions, […]
Sift
Isaiah 43:4 Sift, sift, sift the dirt in the pan looking for a little nugget of gold thinks a little boy watching his grandfather pan for gold. He sees his grandfather working that dirt over and over again and finally at the bottom of the pan he finds the tiniest little nugget of gold and […]
God Heals
Jeremiah 33-6 We read all through scripture of God’s healing powers, but how many of us have actually let God do our healing? Or do we say, “Oh, I’ll be ok. I’ll get over it”? I’m talking about broken hearts, broken spirits, the common cold to the “big C” word. God has amazing healing powers […]
Body of Christ
1 Corinthians 12:12-31 Have you ever heard someone say, “I believe in God but I don’t need to go to church”? I know I have, especially in the younger generations. And now, it is probably even easier for Christians to claim this with easier access to online bible studies, Bible apps, online church services, etc. […]
You Were Warned
Timothy 2:4 The first 11 chapters of Ezekiel are filled with a vision God gave to Ezekiel telling him what to tell Israel. Many times in the vision God told him that the people would be hardhearted, stubborn and would not obey. However, God told Ezekiel that he better tell them any way or Ezekiel […]
Action Speak Louder
Ephesians 4:31-32 In the current social climate, much negativity, judgement and hatred are being thrown around. Even as Christians, we are being attacked for our beliefs and mocked by the very words of God that we hold so dear. It is important now more than ever to remember Jesus’ second greatest commandment, “Love your neighbor […]
