Greater on the Inside

He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4 I was reading a story today about a football and how it never gets deflated in a game.  Actually, I have never once thought about that.  That football is hurled, kicked, squashed, fumbled...

Don’t Look at What You See

As I was studying this morning a scripture caught my attention. It is found in Ecclesiastes 11:4. I am going to share it with you from the Amplified Bible: He who observes the wind and waits for all conditions to be favorable will not sow, and he who regards the clouds will not...

Where it Really Begins…

Over the past decade, the church as focused quite a bit on the words of our mouth. Rightly so, our words are very important. Proverbs 18:21 says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.” What comes out our...

In the Dark Times
