    As a parent, you are the spiritual “umbrella” over your children. If you allow failure in your moral life, you will open a leak in your protection through which Satan can bring destructive temptations to your children.

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 7, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,017 views

    Luke included the Parable of the Unjust Judge to encourage the people. The parable is about waiting and not losing hope, heart or faith. If we pray earnestly, faithfully and regularly, Jesus will find faith when he does return.

    Have you ever wanted something so much that you kept asking for it time and time again until you finally got what you wanted? If so, you can understand how the widow in the Parable of the Unjust Judge felt. She kept going to the judge until he finally decided to hear her case. In Jesus’ ...read more

    The children of Israel have just had a great victory and deliverance from Egypt. They crossed the Red Sea. They are praising the Lord for what He has done.

    In the Baptist churches alone, there are over 1,000 preachers a year that leave the ministry, why? There is no way of numbering the Christians that forsake Christ and His church, just simply give up and quit. Why is this going on? I think the main reason is because of discouragement. I think this ...read more
