    Any power militating against a true child of God is looking for problems. Such a power wants to sink into the red sea after the order of Pharaoh. It is also seeking to be destroyed by God's anger after the order of Senacherib.

    LORD, BEHOLD THEIR THREATENING Dr. D. K. Olukoya In Acts 4, the apostles had been pushed around. They had been warned not to preach in the name of Jesus. Then in verse 29, they started praying, "And now, Lord, behold their threatening and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may ...read more

    First in the series about seeking God’s glory. Complacency is the common cold of Christianity. It is vital that we learn from our past and move forward if we truly want to enter into the glory of God.

    Learning from the Past I Corinthians 10:1-13 Do you ever wonder how many times it takes for a child to learn what No means? Or, just what the rules are for the house? It seems like you tell them over and over, and they still do the same thing. Sometimes you just sit staring into space wondering ...read more

    Who are the "poor in spirit"? Are they rich people with a poverty mentality? Are they poor people who are discouraged? Are they people who don’t have the strength of mind to make it in the world and Jesus wants to take them out?
