When Books Are Opened: Your Soul Revealed for All to See

November 16, 2012 2 Comments

WHEN BOOKS ARE OPENED

God keeps records–of everything. Nothing is too small to escape his notice. Every hair on our heads is numbered (Mt. 10:30), so too, every star (Psalm 147:4). Nothing is too big or too small. God keeps track of all he has created–especially the most important of his creation, the human soul:

“The Lord knows those who are his” (2 Tim. 2:19).

But how does God know this? How can God tell whether or not a person really believes in him and his Son in his heart? He can tell because God can see what is in a person’s heart:

Money and Mission in the Early Church

June 21, 2012 4 Comments

There is a lot we can learn from this document concerning mission and the priorities of the Early Church. It was like an atomic chain reaction of love and mercy that shook the empire of Rome. Could we see something like this happen once again?

Some Super Spiritual Ideas You Can Question

June 13, 2012 No Comments

A platitude is defined as "a remark or statement, esp. one with a moral content, that has been used too often to be interesting or thoughtful." Over my years as a Christian from time to time I hear certain platitudes spoken which sound very wise but can lead people in a direction that is contrary to the one laid out in the word of God.

The Way to Joy, and Things that Can Steal your Joy

May 19, 2012 No Comments

Its very possible to be incredibly SERIOUS about our Christianity and in the process to lose our joy. I've certainly been this way at different times in my life. I am not saying we should be flippant or not take our faith seriously, but I am saying that whatever we are going to do or be, it should be consistent with the command of Scripture:

"Rejoice in the Lord always. And again I say, 'Rejoice' ". Philippians 4:4

Happiness through Trusting in the Lord

May 5, 2012 No Comments

Are Christians happy? I've noticed that some very sincere Christian people are actually NOT so happy. We can have a zeal for God's will AS WE UNDERSTAND IT and still not be happy. We can heal the sick, cast out demons, and make a difference through missionary impact and STILL not be happy.

Happiness does not come as many people think it does. Many people have a dream, a vision, a plan for their lives. Many people who have this believe that when the dream is fulfilled, they will achieve happiness.

The Anointing with Oil – Marlies Zechner

5/ The Anointing of Oil

Exodus 29:6

Put the turban on him and tie on it the sacred sign of dedication engraved ‘Dedicated to the LORD’. 7/ Then take the anointing oil, pour it on his head, and anoint him.

We do not live under the Law of Moses any more, yet while praying for somebody who was under heavy demonic oppression God told me to, ‘anoint her with oil and dedicate her and consecrate her to God and declare her holy.‘ I have never forgotten the incident and I don’t remember God ever telling me to pray for somebody else like that again.

How to Be a Happy Person

HOW TO FEEL FANTASTIC (EVEN) AS A CHRISTIAN!

Whether we take faith in Christ seriously or not too seriously, its possible to be either happy or miserable. I must confess that much of my Christian life I have been living in an emotion of sadness or discontent, but folks, this is not the way God wants it.

Perhaps one reason for this is the lack of clear teaching on how to be happy as a Christian. I can't remember ever hearing any sermons on it.

Some Christians teach that it is almost WRONG to want to be happy.

How can we know the Will of God?

November 24, 2011 36 Comments

Today as I was praying, I was faced with a great need to hear God about our future. We have 3 options before us in 3 different countries. How can we know for sure that we are hearing God and not get it wrong? Getting it wrong would be quite costly when you consider the implications of moving the family overseas.
