Faith That Works Miracles

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Nov 15, 2021

To receive our miracles, God expects a demonstration of our faith. Even when God appears to be silent, faith doesn’t walk away. Faith catches God at His word. Faith finds reasons to believe when there are reasons to give up.

God saved Israel from Egypt so that they may worship in truth, not in the way of Egypt or of the Canaanites.

Today, I just want to focus on the last verse, verse 10 “But they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer, so the Canaanites have lived among the Ephraimites to this day, but 1they have been forced to work as slaves.” The last verse of the chapter tells us that the tribe of Ephraim ...read more

Seeking Crumbs From Jesus

Contributed by John Kapteyn on Oct 18, 2000

Today we see how the faith of a Canaanite woman found expression in the apparent rejection of her by Christ.

Who Do You Look Down Upon, Who Are The Dogs In Your Life?

Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jan 20, 2014

This is a very disturbing story where a woman, at her wits end, was actually ignored by Jesus, who favoured the Jews. Why? God ticks Jesus off here. Did Jesus sin here? It certainly needs investigation.
