    Too often God’s design for victorious living is replaced with fear, depression and anxiety. What can be done about it?

    My preparation took some interesting twists and turns – where I started on Tuesday morning is not where I ended up last night! I feel drawn to today’s subject and couldn’t seem to get around it. I trust this as God’s leading and proceed accordingly. Whoever you are this is for you from God ...read more

    Jesus calls us to relationship, to sabbath-rest. When will we realize this is not about religious or ’spiritual’ activity? We are called to BE not DO.

Ladies, if you have a man that doesn’t pay attention, you need this sentence because you will get the undivided attention you so desperately desire. ...read more

    How many countless people are merely existing, even in the church? It is often the result of not focusing on God’s agenda and direction for the way we spend our time.

    Text: 10Figure out what will please Christ, and then do it. 11Don’t waste your time on useless work, mere busywork, the barren pursuits of darkness. Expose these things for the sham they are.

    Palm Sunday - Jesus embraced his purpose, remaining focused on the goal. So can we succeed if we remained focused on him!

    17-year-old Vivian Ip of Inglewood Cliffs, New Jersey offers a heart cry that resonates in the lives of all too many youth. It is an indictment of her American search for purpose and meaning.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,360 views

    The Holy Spirit offers his influence but he does not guarantee his empowerment. If we are not prepared to exercise the proper spirit toward the Spirit we will lose the intended blessing and anointing of God.

    ¡§Scrooge¡¨ is a classic story that emphasis the ¡§what¡¨ against ¡§what if¡¨. It is the story of a wealthy, miserly businessman who does not know any joy in life nor wills for anyone else to taste the same. He use to have heart but it died some years before. The spirits of Christmas past, present ...read more

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on May 7, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,225 views

    The seed of all actions and behaviour are born in the mind and it is the birth of these thoughts that give permission to our deeds and choices. If we can guard the mind, claiming the capacities of intellect for God, there is nothing that can defeat us!

Our minds belong to him; our bodies belong to him; the seed of all actions and behaviour are born in the mind and it is the ...read more

    Joshua’s posture was one of grief and prayer. God saw it as inappropriate. There is a time when it is a sin to pray. It is that time when God expects us to act.

    Who has a monopoly on God? Everyone likes to think that God is on their side. 9/11 (2001) remains etched on our minds.
