What is required to see the dead raised? We must fall at Jesus’ feet. Mark 5:22: And behold, one of the rulers of the synagogue came, Jairus by name. And when he saw Him, he fell at His feet… Jairus’ daughter was at the point of death, but he believed that Jesus could raise her […]
“We hear them in our own tongues, speaking the mighty deeds of God.” And they continued in amazement and great perplexity, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” Acts 2:11-12 There is something powerful about spirit baptism which is most often evidenced by speaking in tongues. In July, I read a report that the […]
We must practice forgiveness all the time. In fact, forgiveness should be part of your daily routine. 2 Corinthians 2:10-11: Now whom you forgive anything, I also forgive. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ, lest Satan should take advantage of us; […]
Last week Christian writer, Rachel Held Evans, wrote a piece for CNN belief blog provocatively entitled “Why millennials are leaving the church“. It has become a major subject of discussion in the evangelical blogosphere with over 150,000 hits.

What paved the way for Jesus to perform His first miracle? An invitation: “Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding” (John 2:2). Jesus had just been baptized three days prior to the wedding in Cana of Galilee. As He rose up out of the water, the Holy Spirit descended upon Him […]
For the past few weeks, my wife and I have been trying to catch a mouse in our kitchen. The unwelcome rodent managed to eat the peanut butter in the traps without setting them off. Each night, I would set traps in different ways, thinking a new technique might rid my house of the rodent. […]
Jeremiah 29:11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Do you have dreams? Things you want to accomplish in your life that seem out of reach? When those dreams align with His Will, God […]
