“If a man therefore purges himself from these things, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, and prepared for every good work.” (2 Timothy 2:21) Some Christians are vessels of honor, while others are vessels for dishonorable use. The quality of the vessel someone represents is not determined by God […]
“Then Peter opened his mouth and said, ‘In truth, I perceive that God shows no partiality.‘” (Acts 10:34) When considering the different levels of intimacy with God, one might ask: Does God distinguish between His children? If so, wouldn’t that be favoritism? Know this—God has no “favorite” children. He does not prefer some people over […]
It is important to understand that God does not answer every prayer. Just as not all job applications are accepted during a recruitment process, not all prayers receive a positive response. You may be one of a thousand applicants, yet only 100 might be accepted. Every recruitment announcement includes specific conditions to fulfill and required […]
Let us be concerned with prayer, as we must take advantage of the fact that God answers it. In Psalm 65:2, the psalmist says: “O you who hear prayer! To you all flesh will come.” I have heard some say that most of the time, Christians waste their time praying. Know then that if you […]
“For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, ‘Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.’” (Romans 10:10-11) If you believe in Jesus Christ, you should never be ashamed of your […]
The Bible says: “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season…” (2 Timothy 4:2). Preach it when you feel like it and when you don’t. It’s like a calling; you don’t practice it only when it suits you because often it won’t. God wants His children to be His partners in winning […]
1) YOU MUST HAVE A SPECIFIC DESIRE A specific will is essential in the prayer of faith. Jesus said: “Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be […]
The Bible describes Elijah’s prayer as serious, sincere, and “continuous.” His petition was marked by perseverance. Many battles are lost because we stop too soon instead of persisting in prayer. Far too often, we wait for pressure to mount before we begin to pray. In such moments, we end up hitting the panic button, praying […]
And Elijah said to Ahab, ‘Go up, eat and drink, for there is the sound of abundance of rain.’“ (1 Kings 18:41). I have seen people receive anointed Words like the one above but fail to do what Elijah did. When the prophecy they received didn’t come to pass, they wondered what went wrong. Well, […]
Some believe that the greatest problem in the body of Christ today is sin, but that is not true!“Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin” (Romans 6:6-7). When […]
