That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. – Philippians 2:10,11 KJV I want to encourage you, my Christian friend, to keep standing for the Lord! Someday, EVERY knee shall bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord! Our world seems to be getting worse… the mockery of Christianity seems to prevail. Our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ have suffered much. Do NOT be discouraged! The atheists, the evolutionists, the scorners and mockers of Christianity shall ALL…

Monthly Bible Memory Verse Challenge – Month 12 – Blessings
I’ve chosen the word “BLESSINGS” for this month. Oh, how many blessings we receive from our Heavenly Father…and yet, sometimes we completely miss them because of our busy lives! Or, perhaps we tend to focus on the negative more than the positive. How do we know that God blesses us? His Word says so! Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah – Psalm 68:19 KJV [Mini Devo] Please read this… 18 Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your…

Help My Unbelief!
Just how BIG and MIGHTY is God? Really, think for a moment… and seriously try to answer that question. Whatever your answer is — you’re wrong! He’s bigger and mightier than even that! 🙂 Our human mind often struggles to understand or grasp the wondrous love and power of our Heavenly Father. In saying that, we often allow “unbelief” to seep into our thoughts and hearts. A friend sent me an email last Friday, as an encouragement. She’s also the one that inspired me to write this devotional about the topic of “unbelief”. She had been reading 2 Kings 4:8-17. In this reference, we read about a woman from Shunem, who often…

Did This Man’s Riches Keep Him from Going to Heaven?
There once was a young man who had great possessions… And he thought he was in pretty good standing when it came to keeping all the commandments that Jesus had mentioned in Matthew 19:18 & 19. He was a decent person…what more could he lack to get to Heaven someday? This man felt confident in himself and his own goodness, but he was not prepared for Jesus’ response… Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions. – Matthew…

Is Your Faith Steadfast or Shaky?
I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. – Psalm 16:8 KJV How often we set the Lord before us can have a big correlation to how shaky or steadfast our faith stands… In Psalm 16:8, I first notice the word “ALWAYS.” The Psalmist had a continual focus of putting the Lord before him…always! I’m wondering how often we miss out on having a good relationship with our Lord Jesus because we allow modern-day technology get in our way. We have the constant phone usage, computers and other gadgets that occupy our focus. Another notification from social media has…
