Cut it off!
Isa.50:7 “Because the Sovereign Lord helps me, I will not be disgraced. Therefore, I have set my face like a stone, determined to do his will. And I know that I will not be put to shame.”
Remember Hannah and Peninnah? Hannah remained sorrowful until she took Peninnah’s mockery to God. Most times, people take things to God but step out of God’s presence still carrying the problem. Read the rest of this entry
Essentials II
Col. 3:23 (VOICE) “So no matter what your task is, work hard. Always do your best as the Lord’s servant, not as man’s”

Do You Believe?
Mark 16:17 “These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak in new languages. 18 They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them…”
“These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe…” [with emphasis]. The Bible does not say that the miraculous signs will accompany those that are in doubt or those that are afraid. You have to hinge your confidence on Jesus and in the Word of God. Read the rest of this entry
