Lamentations 3:39 in the NLT reads “Then why should we, mere humans, complain when we are punished for our sins?” Complaining seems to have become the great American past time. We live in a very complaining society. People gripe about everything. It seems people aren't satisfied unless and until they are complaining. It is absolutely … Continue reading Lamentations – Stop Complaining
Who Do You Think You Are?
Now that's a good question. Who do you think you are? Maybe a better question is who do people think you are? It seems that we have this inert pressure to try and be the person either people or places drive us to be. What do I mean by that? Well, you are not the … Continue reading Who Do You Think You Are?
Bible, Word, or Gospel
You can be a bible preacher, a word preacher and not be a gospel preacher. There's a huge difference between preaching the word or the bible and preaching the gospel. Here's an example. I'm paraphrasing here. Matthew 27:5 says Judas hanged himself. In Luke 10:37 Jesus says go and do likewise. Now both of those … Continue reading Bible, Word, or Gospel
God Cannot
There are many things God cannot do. The reason He cannot do them is because He said He could not. Since God only speaks truth, whenever He says something it becomes truth, which lines us up for the first thing God cannot do. God cannot lie. Titus 1:1,2. 1. This letter is from Paul, a … Continue reading God Cannot
It’s Your Choice

The question is usually focused toward one particular incident, rather than at the big picture. It's similar to the statement “you can't see the forest for the trees”. The focus is all … Continue reading It’s Your Choice
Walking in the Truth
What’s driving you? That may seem like a strange question, but if you really take it seriously and ask yourself that question, you may discover some undesired answers. God gave every believer the power and authority to proclaim what He has already accomplished. Yet many continue to keep begging Him to do what He’s already … Continue reading Walking in the Truth

Grace Killers – Part 1
I preached a message years ago about this man, this great warrior, this great commander of the army named Naaman. I titled the message “But He Was a Leper”. As I was studying this story again, I saw a whole new revelation of the truth that is displayed and it's application for the “church” today. … Continue reading Grace Killers – Part 1
Grace Failure
“The Tithe and offering time is your time to prosper. It is the way God has given to you to make sure you increase. We lift up our hands and give to you what is yours, the tenth....the tithe. Bless those with prosperity who have come today and obeyed the word of God with their … Continue reading Grace Failure
