Several years ago, Jesse Duplantis taught a message on a choking point. It’s one of those messages that sticks with you year after year. How much can you believe God for? At what level or amount will you choke, or be unable to receive what God is offering? It always...
If our nation and its people have ever been at a crossroad, we are there now. Never has there been a more important time to evaluate where we are and determine to walk on the right path. God’s path. Recently, during a prolonged personal battle, I began to ask the...
Today I was thinking about the time I had to deal with septic issues – they came with no warning and a very expensive price tag. At the same time, two skunks got under my house, sprayed, and left their scent for days. The septic issue was difficult only because...
This morning as I was spending quiet time with God, I was also praying for a friend who has been ill. In the midst, God reminded me of something I once prayed for her. “Father, give her beauty for ashes, just as Your Word promises.” As I prayed this over...

One day, Breanne and I were running errands for the ministry when we saw this woman walking down the side of the road. On the right side of the road was a nice, smooth sidewalk. On the left side of the road, it was a deep ditch, with high grass...
This week as the news media was predicting storms and tornados in my area, God reminded me of another time this same thing happened. It was a couple years ago; the news stations were warning everyone of severe weather coming our way – tornados were expected in our county. The...
