God Will Make A Way

The Red Sea may roll before us; the desert may entrap us; the enemy may press on our heels. The past may seem implausible and the future impossible, but God works in ways we cannot see. He will make a way of escape for His weary, but waiting, children.

Pentecostalism

Since 1906...two types of people have frequented the multiple thousands of Pentecostal and Charismatic churches around the world. There are those who were part of the Azusa Street Mission and revival, and there are those who wish they had been. It is difficult to be anything else.

Sleeplessness

At night, when you can't sleep, instead of counting sheep, call the shepherd...and recall ghost stories--Holy Ghost stories.

Theology

Theology is not just a study of ideas about God. It is also a practical study of how people act when they have a personal relationship with the living and true God.

The Will Of God

Following God is like climbing a mountain. If God showed us how high the mountain really is that He wants us to climb, we might be afraid to take the first step. We might argue that we're not ready, that we're not at all prepared to go all the way to the top. So He covers the top of the summit with a cloud, and all we can see is the step before us.

Worry

Someone defined worry as a small trickle of fear that meanders through the mind, cutting a channel into which all other thoughts flow.

The preacher John R. Rice said, "Worry is putting question marks where God has put periods."

Bishop Fulton J. Sheen called worry "a form of atheism, for it betrays a lack of faith and trust in God."
