Have you been punished by the crime that you did not committed? We can surely relate to the story of Joseph after he handles the series of ...read more

    John writes a letter that commends his friend Gaius, encourages him, and assures him that the troublemaker Diotrephes would be dealt with.

    But you say, I didn’t do anything to deserve all this! Not one of us has ever did anything to deserve the goodness of God! It is only because of our relationship with Jesus that we are qualified to receive any of Gods Goodness towards us.

    Get in agreement with, “God’s word” Recently, I heard a story about this man that wanted to come to America. It was in the early 1900’s and at that time, it could only be done by ocean liner. The trip would take several weeks to complete and therefore the ticket was a lot of ...read more

    Developing and nurturing a defeatist attitude is something that we can’t afford to do. We can’t develop and nurture a defeated mind, because to do so will stop us from seeing and appreciating the blessings that God pours out upon His people.

    Seeing what’s happening around us, in other words, the conflicts and wars in the Middle East; the financial problems in Europe; and the financial problems here in the U.S., where the government is at the brink of a shut down, unemployment continues to grow, and foreclosures continue to ...read more
