Is what we feel or what we think more important? Do our emotions control our thinking or do our thoughts control our emotions? Is anxiety, worry, fear or hate an emotion or a thought? Is love, joy, peace an emotion or a thought? Proverbs 12:25 “Anxiety in the heart of man…
You cannot make God bigger than what He is; you can only make Him something He is not. He will never fit into our box. Take the limits off of God. We limit Him by our small thinking. Mark 9:23 “Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who…
Before we can find out who the real enemy is, we must know who the real enemy is not: Satan Hebrews 2:14-15 Because God’s children are human beings—made of flesh and blood—the Son also became flesh and blood. For only as a human being could He die, and only by dying could He break the…
We must remove all ambiguity concerning God’s Word. To question the Word of God is to question your own salvation. 1 Peter 1:23 “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which lives and abides forever.” (NKJ) If you are unable to see the Word working in your…
Words have importance even if you don’t really mean what you say. The Devil does not have the power nor authority to speak into your life and change it. That is why he works so hard trying to get you to speak negative things. Your words carry the power of life or death. It is…
God is always speaking. The question is, are we on the same wavelength with God? Is your receiver on? Philippians 2:5 “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,” (NKJ) You cannot hear from God if you don’t hear His Word. James 1:21-27 “So get rid of all the filth and…
We must know who we are, not who we were. The devil wants us to live within the confines of our past. Therefore not knowing who you are is the only reason you face defeat. John 10:10 “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and…
The terms the Kingdom, Kingdom of Heaven, Kingdom of Light, and the Kingdom of God are all synonyms. What does the Kingdom of Heaven mean? Where exactly is the Kingdom of Heaven? How do we get there? Jesus knew we would have a hard time understanding the Kingdom of Heaven with our natural mind. Over…
Deception keeps you focused on a distraction so you won’t see what is really going on. The main problem with deception is you don’t know you are being deceived. Let’s look at the source of all deception. Jeremiah 9:6 You dwell in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to know Me, (Berean) 2…
Too often we want God to fix the problem around us when He wants to fix the problem within us. It is not enough to deal with the surface. We must get to the root of the problem – the heart. 1 Samuel 16:7 But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his…
What is a prescription? According to Webster, “a written direction for a therapeutic or corrective agent; specifically: one for the preparation and use of a medicine.” It also means, “The action of laying down authoritative rules or directions.” It is also defined as, “the process of making claim to something by long use and enjoyment.” The…
What does spiritual maturity look like?

What does it mean to be Born Again? Where did the term come from? John 3:3-6 Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, except anyone be born from above, he is not able to see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus says to Him, “How is a man able to…
Fear is a tool used by the enemy to stop us from using our faith to receive from God the things we need. Fear is designed to cause us to relinquish our God-given purpose. 2 Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of…
Many of us have heard or read stories about people who have seen Heaven and we all conjure up ideas of what we think Heaven is like. 1 Corinthians 2:9-10 But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has…
In review, what problem or circumstance are you facing? If you don’t know your problem, then you certainly don’t know the answer. You don’t have a health problem. You don’t have a financial problem. You don’t even have a devil problem. Your problem is NOT the circumstance. You have a knowledge problem. Hosea 4:6a My…

What does it mean to humble yourself? Is it a posture – an attitude, or a mental thought? No, it’s much more! It is the actions you take toward yourself, others, and God. James 4:6-10 But He gives more grace. Therefore, He says: “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” 7 Therefore…
Words are the fundamental part of communication. We were created in God’s image by the spoken Word. Our words have the power of influence for the good or for the bad. Have you ever been told something that has stuck with you throughout the years? Matthew 12:33-37 Jesus said, “Either make the tree good and…
This is a story about a girl trying to find her way home. After a whirlwind experience, she has lost her way, and can’t find peace and safety. 2 Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. (NKJ) Let’s meet…
Many people are taught that the only righteous you can be is self-righteous. True Christianity is not a religion but a relationship. Only through relationship with Christ can one be righteous. Philippians 3:9 and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in…
We are to bear much fruit, but what exactly does that fruit look like? John 15:5-8 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out…
Too often, we try to do things on our own. Yes, we will pray and ask God to do something but if He doesn’t answer us immediately, we try to solve the problem ourselves. John 15:5-8 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much…
What is your mental image of yourself? How do you see yourself? Do you see yourself sick, weak, broke, poor, old with wrinkles? “Well, yea… that’s what I see in the mirror.” But that is not the real you (your spirit), it’s only a reflection. You have never seen your own face with your own…
Most people see the imagination as a negative thing such as make-believe or fantasy. We have discovered using our imagination is a good thing when used properly based on God’s Word. Today we will look at some Biblical examples of how people used their imaginations to receive from God. Mark 5:21-34 When Jesus had again…
Most people see the imagination as a negative thing such as make-believe or fantasy. The Bible has a lot to say about the imagination – the image you have on the inside. Proverbs 23:7a For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. (NKJ) 1 Chronicles 28:9 And thou, Solomon my son, know thou…
Stewards are not owners but managers. Once this is realized, it will change our attitude toward money. Prosperity is not greed. In fact, it is greed that keeps people from receiving teachings on prosperity. 1 Corinthians 4:2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. (KJV) Steward = Greek oikonomos (oy-kon-om’-os)…
Stewards are not owners but managers. Once this is realized, it will change our attitude toward money and bring about a course correction in our giving. 1 Corinthians 4:2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. (KJV) Steward = Greek oikonomos (oy-kon-om’-os) the manager of a household, a guardian. A…
I don’t teach on healing so I can get healed. I’m already living in divine health. Likewise, I’m not teaching on giving so I can get, but for your benefit. Thinking you know all of this will not benefit you. If you think you’ve already arrived then you’re not going anywhere. 1 Corinthians 4:1-2 Let…
This is not a list of options to choose from whenever you want. These are not fruits (as in different types) but fruit (singular) as a whole. Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, self-control: against such there is no law. (NKJ) Are these…
