From a Heart of Stone to a Heart of Flesh
Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, "Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, 'Get you far from the LORD: unto us is this land given in possession.' Therefore …

The Undefiled in the Way
ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD. Blessed are they that keep His testimonies, seek Him with the whole heart. They also do no iniquity: they walk in His ways. Thou hast commanded us to keep Thy precepts diligently. O that my ways were directed to …
The Conspiracy of Fear

Preparing a House for the LORD
"And David made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent. Then David said, 'None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them hath the LORD chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister unto …
Not For Your Own Righteousness
If there were no God like so many are trying to tell us through atheistic and "scientific" thought; this world would have been destroyed way before now.

When We Speak With GOD and Miracles Happen

Heart and Mouth Disease
My reading for today was Matthew 14 - 15. The mouth is our own worst enemy at times. That is why it is very important to have a changed heart. Changed by the power of the cross of Jesus Christ. The cross is the only place of change for good and positive power with God …
Useless Talk
There is much, very much of it that goes on; that is useless talk, or idle words. We need to understand that words whether they are spoken or written are powerful, and useful when used correctly and rightly. Let us hear what Jesus says about the use of words... "A good man out of the …
