How God Answers Our Accuser
The Bible warns us that the enemy is active and relentless as our accuser, but it does not leave us without hope. Scripture is VERY clear that victory in spiritual warfare can never be divorced from living in heart-obedience. This is not outward religious obedience—it must be heart-based obedience. The nation of Judah learned this […]
Our Enemy Who Never Sleeps
The Bible is unambiguous that God reigns supreme, but it also warns us that there is an active, ongoing spiritual conflict. We have a very dangerous enemy. This enemy does not threaten God’s authority—but he does target God’s people. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible testifies that satan and his minions are at work, opposing […]
Does Our Soul Ever Sleep?
Sleep is one of God’s gracious provisions for the human body. It restores strength and reminds us of our physical limitations. But the Bible seems clear that sleep belongs to the body, not to the soul or spirit. This is very exciting for born again believers because it means our relationship with God is living, […]
Be Prepared for Opportunity
“But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.” 1 Peter 3:15 In a story published by Runner’s World, it was reported that after finishing second two […]
God is at Work Behind the Scenes
“I will lift up my eyes to the hills—From whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel Shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is your keeper; […]
Hope That Makes Us Unbreakable
Modern history is filled with people who were devoid of hope and crushed by disappointment. Veterans who returned home from horrible wars believing they would be welcomed as heroes, only to find themselves forgotten, hated, and displaced. Families who survived the Great Depression and rebuilt with grit—only to watch their entire life savings evaporate again […]
Ravi Zacharias: A Life Given Back
There are moments in life that define everything that comes after. God gives them to everyone. Some are quiet—a whispered conviction, a book opened at the right verse, or an unexpected, Divinely appointed meeting. Others are dramatic, like a young man lying in a hospital bed, unable to speak, unsure if he will live or […]
God’s Blessings: No More Living on Scraps!
“He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.” Matthew 5:45 God’s blessings are not limited to those who are born again and live with Him on the throne of their heart. Even those who are not God’s children experience times of […]
Short-term Gains; Lasting Consequences
“Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, ‘Has God indeed said, “You shall not eat of every tree of the garden”? Genesis 3:1 In a widely discussed story, a former NCAA Division I athlete filed suit against Nike, […]
True Peace In This World Is Not the Absence of War
“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 One of the misconceptions among believers is the idea that peace means our life should be comfortable. We often assume that if […]
