It Begins With Me

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 31, 2025

Revival starts where one heart turns—opening closed doors, cleansing hidden sin, and welcoming the Spirit’s rain until joy returns again.

Introduction — The Long Wait for Rain Sometimes revival doesn’t arrive with thunder. Sometimes it seeps in quietly—like rain through hard, cracked ground. For years we may live with the crust of complacency, calling it contentment. We tell ourselves that the season of power is past, that we’ve ...read more

An Endangered Species

Contributed by Pastor Thomas Samuel on Jan 9, 2010

It is futile to have faith without deeds. In simple language, it is hypocrisy and such a faith can never save anybody. One’s faith is dead if it is not accompanied by action.

An Endangered Species What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical ...read more

Lovers Of Pleasure More Than Lovers Of God

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 23, 2025

Pleasure in itself is not sinful. God created us with the ability to enjoy life, but the problem arises when pleasure becomes our priority and passion, while God becomes secondary or even ignored.

"Let Him Go”

Contributed by Sean Dees on Feb 7, 2020

Churches today are dealing with the same things that they did in Bible times; and that is; man likes to mess up what God sets up!

(13) And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, (14) And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: (15) And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; ...read more

Now Is The Time

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 23, 2017

God loved His people and desired to have a fulfilling relationship with them. Unfortunately they sought the ways of the world and the desires of the flesh while neglecting ...read more
