We have all heard of the glory of the Lord. It is sometimes likened unto a cloud, sometimes like a mist or vapor and sometimes it is like unto cloven tongues of fire accompanied by the sound of a rushing mighty wind.In the Old Testament, the glory would come, or descend and remain for a season and then would depart. When Moses went upon Mt. Sinai and stood in the glory and presence of God,...read more

What a blessed privilege it is for the creature to glorify his creator. It should be the desire of each one to...read more
This verse says that we have been justified by faith and therefore have peace with God. It is so comforting to know that justification is a finished work, not something that we have to daily strive for. There would not be very much confidence in our lives if we had to daily prove our worthiness to be justified. Many people have a hard time accepting this truth, they just can’t believe that they don’t have...read more
Paul expressed the basic principle for all of our conduct as Christians in this letter to the Colossians. He takes away the stance of many of the nominal Christians who say that it really doesn’t matter how we live and establishes the truth that our sole purpose for living should be to bring glory to God.I have discovered that a person needs to have a goal if they are going to accomplish much of anything....read more

what in the world is god doing?
You may never have asked this question in so many words, but all of us at one time or another have questioned what God was doing and what He was up to. This question must be answered not only in the general terms of God's overall plan, but also in the specific terms as relating to you and me personally. The ability to see through the eyes of faith into that spirit dimension and behold...read moreHave you ever wanted to step out in faith and do something wild for the Lord? Have you been intimidated by the crowd and by a fear of messing up? I am sure that you probably have, since most of us basically have the same feelings and thoughts.I can remember very early in my Christian walk when I would spend time by myself, alone in my room. I would be preaching as hard and fast...read more
So often people think of the Christian life as something that you do on Sunday. To them, it is a mere matter of showing up for church and then trying to do their best the rest of the week not to do too much that would be against their “religion”. These people are in reality getting no earthly good out of their faith. There is no practical application of the Biblical principles in their lives....read more
It is almost unbelievable for most people to think that a man or a woman can actually please God. The Bible teaches that we not only can please God, but that we can also bless Him and bring glory to Him as we live for Him on this earth.It is important to remember that all of us are created for a purpose and all have a divine plan for our lives. It is in finding...read more
I love to watch little babies as they are first learning to walk. They are so funny. There are several styles of toddlers. There are the cautious one that ease into each new step, pausing to catch their balance before attempting another one. Then there are the “give me a hand hold and I will take a step ones.” They go from one piece of furniture or helping hand to the next, not venturing out...read more
