Thought For Today: “God Gave It All” God gave the gift of His Son, Jesus, for sinners. “So if God gave them the same gift he gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to think that I could stand in God’s way?” (Acts 11:17) God gave the gift of His … Read more

Thought For Today: “No Greater Work” When Jehoshaphat took over as king of Judah, he strengthened himself against the advances of ungodly Israel by reinforcing the cities and building garrisons throughout the land.

Thought For Today: “Power to Get Unstuck” The problem with many Christians is that they are stuck between the cross and Pentecost. What do I mean by that?

Thought For Today: “Where Contentment Resides” Our search for contentment will only come up empty when we look for it in people, places, or things.

Thought For Today: “God’s Purpose Doesn’t Change” In Malachi 3:6, the Lord said to Israel, “For I am the LORD, I do not change; therefore you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob.” But later in chapter four we read of God’s judgement, but in His judgment, He is leaving a door of hope. “For … Read more

Weekend’s Thought: “Tapped by God” The richest spot on earth is neither South Africa’s diamond mines, the oil fields of Saudi Arabia, nor Silicon Valley and it’s microchips.

Thought For Today: “What’s In Your Hand?” Sometimes we’re so busy we have no time for God.

Thought For Today: “Our Highest Pursuit” “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33) We got it all backwards.

This Weekend’s Thought: “Salvation’s Strength” No matter how strong, smart, successful, or wealthy someone is; they can never save themselves.

Thought For Today: “Rethinking Failure” Theodore Roosevelt said, “Far better to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory or defeat.” Benjamin Franklin said, “Do not fear … Read more

Thought For Today: “Take Heed and Consider” Just because we raised our hand on a Sunday morning and think that now that we are saved, we can do what we want and whatever our heart desires; we need to take another look and change our way of thinking.

Thought For Today: “Remember the Good” Remember the good in others, not what is wrong or evil. Wow, talk about a tough proposition.
