     | 1,885 views

    We often delay seeking Christ's help until desperation drives us to Him. He stands ready to deliver us when we come to Him confessing our need for Him to touch us.

    “When [Jesus] came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him. And behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, ‘Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.’ And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, ‘I will; be clean.’ And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.” ...read more

     | 10,435 views

    It's a curious thing: Jesus regularly instructed people to keep quiet about the miracle He'd done for them. This passage provides insight into why Jesus did that.

    A LINGERING QUESTION: Why did Jesus tell people to stay quiet about the miracles? - Matthew 9:31. - This is something that happens repeatedly throughout the gospels: Jesus does a miracle and then instructs the healed not to share what happened. - It’s hard to understand: wouldn’t you ...read more

    There are three unholy agents that is against every Christian. That is the world, the flesh and the devil. I believe your flesh is the worse of the three. The reason is that it is simply attached to you and it is always so near.

    Three UNHOLY Agents Against the Christian 1 John 2:15-17 (KJV) Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world.

    Make up and clothing cannot beautify an ugly soul. Only the soul is eternal so seek a beauty that lasts. That is what God calls valuable.

    Psalm 45:13 The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.

     | 3,923 views

    Being quiet before God is as important as being busy for him.

    The Call to Quietness I have to say that I am very glad that our gospel reading today skips over the horrific story of the beheading of John the Baptist, and rather moves on chronologically from last week. We read then how Jesus sent out the twelve disciples in ministry for the first time. Today ...read more

    It wasn’t the faith of this little girl that moved Jesus to come. It was the faith of a father in desperation, crying out to Jesus. Nothing is more powerful than the desperation of a father for his child. THERE IS ALWAYS A DESPERATE ASPECT TO FAITH.

    Part 7 - Matthew 9:18-26 - THE DESPERATE CRY OF MY FAITH! I’ve conducted funerals. I know the kind of grief that hangs in the air with anticipation like storm clouds ready to flood the earth with rain.
