    Joy Versus Happiness

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 12, 2015
     | 6,560 views

    The world relentlessly pursues self-statisfying happiness with utter disregard for the Joy of the Lord. Even those who authored the declaration of independence thought that the "pursuit of happiness" was a God given right. So ... what does the Bible say?

    Let’s take a look at a couple of Scriptures … Ecclesiastes 12:8 (NASB) “Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher, “all is vanity!” Ecclesiastes 12:8 (HCSB) “Absolute futility,” says the Teacher. “Everything is futile.” Ecclesiastes ...read more

    Gizmos, gadgets, trappings, add-ons, etc. are really optional, but so many of us have come to think that we cannot live without them. The problem is that it becomes like the proverbial "straw that broke the camels' back".

    Paraphernalia--furnishings and apparatuses, (add-ons) to enhance or give more options to a thing.

    When people can see Jesus for who He really is, they will be drawn to Him and can experience life transformation as they respond to Him.

    Looking at Jesus Intro: Hebrews 12:2 “…looking to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross.” There are numerous places in Scripture where people look at Jesus. Even though the Bible indicates there would be nothing ...read more

    So, let's take a little pressure off from the Mom's today and take a look at the responsibility of the child to follow the leading of the mother. This of course is a parallel to God the Father and our response as children of the Most High God!

    This “Hero of the Faith”, mentioned in Hebrews 11 goes by the name of Sarah, and she’s the first lady mentioned in Paul’s hall of fame for Heroes. There is so much spiritual meat in Sarah’s life that it’s hard to boil it down into a few worthy snapshots.

    Clutter That Hinders

    Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Aug 5, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,381 views

    Because of the clutter and the noise in our lives, we often fail to see what Jesus does and can do for us. It seems as if we are constantly grasping, but never grabbing hold of that which changes us for the better.

    He walked on water which shows us that nothing can separates us from Him. He made that water into wine which shows us He can create something out of nothing. He ate and drank with people that we would never want to be caught around which shows us that we are all deserving of even the smallest of ...read more

     | 29,562 views

    There are two types of electrical current, Alternating Current and Direct Current. Most A/C believers are not in charge of their life..their feelings are. God is seeking disciplined disciples who allow the Direct Current of God to flow consistently. Updated January 2023.
