““Ah, stubborn children,” declares the Lord, “who carry out a plan, but not mine, and who make an alliance, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin; who set out to go down to Egypt, without asking for my direction, to take refuge in the protection of Pharaoh and to seek …

It’s Time for the Church to Have a Voice
– Nathan Shaw Pentecost gave the Church a voice. The voice had authority. The voice penetrated to the heart of Jerusalem (Acts 5:28, 6:7). People had two options: hear the voice or resist the voice. There was no force or manipulative coercion. Each person had to make their own free will decision. Those who responded …
Stop Saying ‘I Love You’
As I was looking for the most misused words “I love you”, I found this post by an unknown author as I could not discover the origin but had to post it. So remember, the “I” in the post is not me. The words "I love you" are losing their impact when people say it …
A Generous Consecration: Resetting the altars of our lives

Compassion based on a Lie isn’t God’s Love
Posted on May 28, 2020 by Wanda Alger The consistent argument that is causing such division within the Body of Christ concerning the pandemic seems to be whether or not we truly love others.

Ignorance is killing us!
Reading: Matthew 24 and Isaiah 22 A warning, speaking out in preparation for “the news”! I’m pretty sure that the evil that is covering the nations today like a tsunami can not be “voted” away!

When the Lord has touched your Mouth…
To those that carry the New It’s amazing how well received you are if you play along and help maintaining the Old, although carrying the New.

They are Flooding your Soul
With the devastating power of a Tsunami, the daily attempt of the media to attack and control your soul is enormous and evil.

By Ron McGatlin Much of the western world has adjusted to bondage that gradually overtook them in the name of freedom. A false freedom of indulgence in carnality free from spiritual truth, love and righteousness has stolen the sanity of the confused once sound minds of the people. Many of the people of the nations …

Your Digital Life, Hidden with Christ
By John Lee Serving the God ‘who sees in secret’ in a world where there's pressure to post everything. Snap, post, chat, tweet, like, send—the gestures of social media, where a stubby thumb or an index finger is mightier than the sword and pen combined. Such is the world in which we live.
