Our Daily Struggles
Romans 7:18+19: For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the wishing is present in me, but the doing of good is not. For the good that I wish, I do not do; but I practice the very evil that I do not wish. 7:24: wretched man that…

Temptations
“The Lord God formed man out of the dust of the ground.” “On your belly you shall go and dust you shall eat!” “God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone.” The Bible says we are tempted by evil. That’s the devil, evil with a D in front which stands…

Temple Cleansing
And Jesus entered the temple and cast out those who were buying and selling, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those that were selling doves. And He said to them,” It is written, “My house shall be call a of prayer; but you have made it a robbers den.””…

God’s Will and Our Worship
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you might prove what the will of God is.

Dry and Hot
“He will convict the you concerning sin, righteousness and judgment.” It’s a very hot season, spiritually. We’re experiencing something that most people in the church just simply don’t understand.

Leave Your Grave Clothes
“Loose him and let him go!” We talked about raising from the dead and coming out of the grave. Once Jesus raised from the dead, He left the tomb and went on to walk into life. That’s what He expects us to do also. He expects us to leave the tomb and go where He…

Let’s Leave Our Tomb!
“Tell them I am going before them into Galilee.” After Jesus rose from the dead on the first Easter morning, He sent word to all His disciples that He had gone to Galilee before them and they were to come there if they wanted to see Him. The truth about this statement is very simple.…

You get What You Pay For!
“You reap what you sow!” Yesterday, we spent the day in the hot sun (my wife and I) repairing our home. You see, during the weekend the rainspouts came down across the back of our house. We were just going to call a local company who had installed them until we inspected the damage and found…

Are You Addicted?
James 1:14, “But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust.” Why are we tempted? Well, James says very clearly that temptations come from our own lusts. Let me say it another way. We’re tempted by things that are in our lives. Maybe they’re learned habits or maybe…
