We read in Mark 9:43-47, "If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life crippled, than, having your two hands, to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire, [where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.]” If your foot causes you to stumble, ...read more

What Are You Looking At?

Contributed by Dr. Amen Howard on Aug 24, 2013

2 Kings 6: 14, 15 Gehazi focused on what was going on in the natural, and he became panic-stricken. He had a fleshly or natural outlook. But there is another outlook: the spiritual or supernatural outlook.

You set aside time for a family dinner, only to have it turn into sibling arguments, someone stomping away ...read more
