Power in the Name of Jesus.
There is power in the name of Jesus. The phrase "pray in the name of Jesus" is often used by Christians, and it refers to the practice of praying to God and asking for His help, guidance, or protection.
Death to Sin and Self is What It Means to Be a Christian.
Two things about the death of Christ. The first was that since one person died for and in place of everyone else, everyone had died. What is this death at the end? Either the death they deserved because of their sin.
Our Reliance on Jesus Christ and His Righteousness.
It’s odd how we often acknowledge that we take on too much, and try to accomplish things in our own strength, and need to rely more on Jesus. And yet we continue to do the same thing over and over.
The Conscience is Our Moral Compass.
The conscience is a divinely given moral compass that can be swayed by many factors, such as our background, experiences, and thoughts. What is important is the truth that one has to inform their conscience.
Who Said Walking by Faith Was Easy?
Life is rough for most people today. Just when we have hope of a life returning to normal, we are seeing things none of us have ever seen in our lifetime.
God’s Love That Has Saved Us Through Jesus Christ.
To grasp the magnitude of our deliverance, we must first comprehend where we came from. We are not exempt from the repercussions of our actions because we are descendants of Adam.
Worship Honors God and is a Strong Weapon Against Spiritual Attack
Have you ever felt like you were under attack? Things in life are going south, and it seems that nothing is going right. You hear people say things like “God is mad at me” or “I am under attack” or “the Devil is doing this….”
We know God does allow certain things to take place in our lives. Look at Job. God allowed Satan to have his way with him, and the only thing Satan was not able to do or allowed to do is take Job’s life.
Who Is Jesus?
The problem with following anyone, a leader, a president, a supervisor, a CEO of a company or Jesus, is that people don’t often know the person, or anything about them.
Honoring Mothers of Faith on Mother’s Day
On this Mother's Day, I thought it would be appropriate to honor two mothers: Lois, Timothy's grandmother, and Eunice, Timothy's mother. I'd like to pay tribute to Timothy's inheritance, which he received since his mother and grandma loved him enough to give him their most valuable possession: faith.
Claim The Joy of the Lord
When it comes to sharing what Jesus did for you and everyone around you, is joy something that comes to mind? When you think about Jesus willingly going to the cross, “joy” is not something we connect with what was accomplished on Calvary.
