His Teachings

 The last three weeks have been unforgettable. Someone very close to my family had to have a below the calf leg amputation to save their life. The doctor explained that in less than 2 days, they would have surely been dead due to the rate at which the flesh-eating bacteria was spreading. Sepsis had set in unless GOD had shown mercy, this may have very well been a post about their death. But GOD showed mercy and made it possible for them to receive care from a specialist within the field (who was the only specialist within a 4-5 state radius), and though they lost a limb, they will live. I am grateful. Interesting enough, this same person had visited my son and I just two weeks prior and visited our church. I asked if they were saved, and jokingly they responded that they were saved on Sundays, but don't let Jesus come Monday-Saturday. I shook my head not knowing what would happen just just two weeks.  Then, this past Sunday my pastor, Dr. Rod Parsley gave a sermon that certain...

We have a good GOD. He is good GOD Almighty! "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." - Isaiah 41:10 Have you ever been involved in a battle so unfair that you were paralyzed by fear? The odds were so much against you that you were unable to really engage as you should and while you were physically present, you had mentally checked out and just resigned yourself to lose?  What if I told you that this was all an illusion and the giant you are encountering today, you can defeat once and for all?!  Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.  - Hebrews 11:1 We all face many types of battles - battles with enemies, battles with friends, court battles, financial battles, internal battles – all of these can be overwhelming and leave us feeling as though there is no point in even trying. The opposing side appears to have ever...

What can I say about the LORD? His ways are unknowable His love will make you want to know Him more! You can never escape when He chooses you to save Though you won’t understand His ways Surrender anyway Open up your heart That’s a good place to start For Him to enter in And turn your losses into wins First He will open your eyes to all of Satan’s lies He will help you understand the secret to being wise Found in His holy Word, not in universities or books You’ll find His wisdom if you know where to look Things you thought you knew, you’ll begin to question Like how you should live and how to enter heaven It’s not by good behavior or being a good person Transformation is what must take place for your salvation to be certain It’s not how you think you are or even your church attendance Rather your obedience, humility, and willingness to listen He compels you to strive for the eternal reward And you’ll only have a chance if you use your sword The Word, The Way, The Truth, and The Lif...

I think we can all agree that across the globe people are encountering an unusual season of mourning. Just when we think the pandemic is over, bam - another variant is in the headlines. We lost four high school students this week in a horrible attack in Michigan, and no matter what manner of justice eventually comes down, none of those involved will ever be the same.  If we are not personally impacted by this season of mourning, we all know someone close to us who is and that is why it is so crucial for us as the Body of Christ to lean and rely on The Word. In times like these, we must be like King David and look to the hills from where our help comes from. We must embrace one another, share words of encouragement and make a decision like Job, that no matter what comes we will trust in the LORD. It is not easy, but we know from past deliverances, miracles, and encounters that He can be trusted and that He will make all things beautiful in their time.  King Solomon wisely sh...

One of the best techniques used for children when they are upset or angry is redirection. I am no expert but I can recall when I had a family child care business as a young mother in Germany, we were taught that redirection was a tool we could use to calm the anxious child or comfort the sad infant. As children of GOD, I strongly believe that the LORD uses this same strategy today. When we are on the verge of being swallowed up in grief, sadness, or anything which is opposite of the joy we should have, He will redirect our attention to what is true, kind, just, pure, lovely, and good. In Philippians 4:8 the apostle Paul exhorts the church: “Finally, my brothers and sisters, always think about what is true. Think about what is noble, right and pure. Think about what is lovely and worthy of respect. If anything is excellent or worthy of praise, think about those kinds of things (NIV).” This can be a life-saving concept because so many people are hurting and feel they cannot see their way...

May our eyes see, our ears hear and our hearts receive the Word of the LORD. We must return to Our Creator before His Son Jesus Christ returns. The time is shorter than when we first heard of His return more than 2  millennia ago. He does not want any person to perish or be eternally separated from Him, but all who ignore His call to return and all who mock Him will surely see that His Word cannot lie! He will be a refuge to those who choose Him, and a terror to those who reject His salvation. He is a firm foundation for those who trust in Him, but a rock of offense to those who refuse.  As nations have come and gone, so will all of us in the earth, but our souls will live on forever. How we respond to His call will determine if we are eternally with Him, or eternally separated.  Come to the LORD  while there is still time. Since He created time, we cannot control it, so make your salvation sure today! Creator. GOD. King of kings. LORD of lords. For by Him all things...
