No Little People (Or People Eyes)

Contributed by Tom Mccrossan on Dec 10, 2003

Zacchaeus was a litle man in his own eyes and in the people’s eyes; but not to Jesus. There are no insignificant people to Jesus, nor should there be to us. Jesus can give us "People Eyes" like his.

When Critics Are Your Best Friend

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Sep 30, 2021

Most prophecies today speak to greatness. "You will be a financier of the Kingdom!" "You will have a worldwide ministry!!" Not every prophecy in Scripture was affirming nor was every prophet popular.

Beware of only listening to those who always affirm your decisions because the majority has often been wrong. Indeed, Jeremiah was outgunned 400-1. Four hundred prophets told the king everything he wanted to hear and prophesied victory. Then along came Jeremiah, who said the four hundred were ...read more

God Uses Our Personality Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 14, 2018
