And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. Romans 8:27 KJV We appreciate knowing that our names are lifted up in prayer by the saints of God. If you request prayer and the following week someone tells you, “I prayed for you every day last week” how does that make you…
“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” II Timothy 1:7 Romans 8:9 says, “But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.

“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31 Lamentations 3:25 says, “The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.” We don’t like getting stuck in traffic jams or waiting in line at the grocery store…

We understand the Word of God to be the Bible. To mankind, “word” means something spoken or written. We fill books and magazines with the words of men. We fill the air with the words we speak. We see a word as nothing more than a means of communication. And the Holy Scriptures is the written Word of God, bound by a cover. We refer to it as the Holy…
“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” Isaiah 26:3 We like peace – peace and quiet, peace between nations, peace in our households and on our jobs, peaceful settlements, peaceful neighborhood relations, peace treaties… Our world is always looking for peace, but never finding it. That’s because peace is only available through God. Romans 14:17 says, “For the kingdom…
“But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19 Regardless of what we have or don’t have, our Heavenly Father owns it all, and He delights in utilizing His incredible wealth to meet our every need.

One of the most frequently asked questions is regarding the “will of God.” Babes in Christ and spiritually immature believers are plagued by this question. “How do I know God’s will for my life?” “Now that I’m saved, do I change jobs or divorce my unsaved spouse or move to another city? What does God want me to do?” What does the Bible teach about the will of God? 1. …
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” Genesis 1:27 KJV According the the Bible, God created mankind in His image. So, then, does that mean that we act like God or think like God or look like God or talk like God? Not according to His Word, but as His children, we are to strive…
The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters. The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty. The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon. He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn. The voice…
