Will You Serve God? God is looking for those who will serve Him. He wants to use us in these uncertain times to bring hope, to bring Jesus, to others. How will God use you? Do you think it is impossible for God to use you? Many mighty people of old thought the same and yet God used them in ways they never thought possible. Is It Impossible For God To Use You? Do you think your past will make it impossible for God to use you? Look at Moses. He was a murderer, on the ru

Following rules isn’t the same as loving God. The Pharisees followed every law but missed the heart of worship—love, mercy, and faith. Jesus calls us to something greater: a relationship, not a checklist. Only in Him do we find true rest for our souls.

In 2 Corinthians 5: 20, Paul tells us that we are ambassadors for Christ. What does an ambassador actually do in our world today? Their...

This week has been pretty overwhelming for many people. A new war has broken out in the Middle East. Horrific atrocities are happening, which sadly we have a front row seat to see. Economic collapse is being predicted by many and even the possibility of a global war is often talked about. At times like these we should remind ourselves of the Lord's words in Matthew 6:34, "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trou

When the Lord looks at the heart of man what does He see? God desires a heart that shows true repentance, not excuses for our sin. May God truly search and know us for who we are.

In a world filled with distractions, Jesus invites us to find the better portion. Like Mary at the feet of Jesus, we’re called to slow down, listen, and rest in His presence instead of being consumed by busyness and worry. As Christians we should choose Christ over distraction, peace over anxiety, and worship over work.

Jesus, though fully God, humbled Himself in perfect obedience—even to death on a cross. Because He humbled Himself, God exalted Him above all. As believers, we are called to have the same mind: humility, obedience, and dependence on the Holy Spirit. It’s not by our strength, but by His Spirit that we live out God’s will and reflect Christ to the world.

In Romans Chapter one we see the fate of those who reject the evidence all around them of God's character. They see and know, in their heart of hearts, but reject God and His righteousness. Because they reject Him and want nothing to do with Him God removes Himself from them. When God leaves us alone we are left to our own devices. Without the prompting of the Holy Spirit they were given up to uncleanness or sinful desires (Romans 1: 24), vile passions or shameful desires
