They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them ...read more

    If you want to serve God well, be ceaseless in your supplication, celebrate your salvation, continue in your sanctification, and conduct yourself in the Spirit’s power.

    What did Jesus teach? Servant hood. Throughout His life He always put others first before Himself. Everyday He would spend time with His Father alone in prayer to prepare Himself for His day ahead, in teaching, healing, praying, but mostly serving.

We want to be recognized for a job well done, for boldly helping others, for supporting a cause we believe in. It is our nature, our human nature, but the words of Christ teach us otherwise. Within the ...read more
