I’ve been talking to the Lord since I was seventeen years old. I have learned in the process and He has shown me that when I rely on Him for everything, even the minutest thing in my life, He loves it and appreciates it. It draws Him closer to me and lets me become important to Him. It shows my dedication to the Lord – my desire to have Him involve…

For many years I thought I lived for Christ, but didn’t really live for Him. I mean, I was a Christian and went to church, said my prayers in the morning and in the evening, but I really didn’t live for Him. I lived for myself. I had my hopes and my dreams and my plans, and I pursued after them. I didn’t ask God what His plans were for me and what …

And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. {Revelation 20:10} Satan has no power at all except what God has given him. He might think he has power now, but he knows clear enough that it is short lived. That’s why he…

With Jesus, we can find that perfect love that casteth out fear. We don’t have to worry about what He thinks about us, we can be completely ourselves with the Lord because He loves us so much and accepts us for who we are. He loves us so much that He laid down His life at the cross, bled and died for our sins so that we can be set free and be forgi…

Because the truth is, no one can really know their heart. The Bible tells us in Jeremiah that the heart is deceitful and desperately wicked, and that only God can know it. {Jeremiah 17:9-10} Plus Proverbs tells us, Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts. {Proverbs 21:2} That’s why it’s so crucial to turn to t…

Obedience is one of the most important elements in our relationship with the Lord. Without obedience how can God do His work in us? How can we follow Him all the way and go where He desires for us to go? It’s not possible to love God without obedience. It is not possible to be His servant or His minister to others, when we’ve closed our ears off fr…

Having a relationship with Jesus Christ should be our number one ambition in this life. Outside of Him we can fail miserably at everything else in this life, but as long as we have Him we have been successful. Nothing in this life really matters. The only thing that truly matters is to have God in the end. Thanks so much for listening to this podca…

Watch Lyrics Video I Am The Resurrection By Sheila Copp @ 2002 Verse 1: There was a man Who’d been buried for four days Jesus came to see, Lazarus His sister Martha came to Jesus And cried before Him, “Lord if You had been here, he wouldn’t have died.” But Jesus said unto her, “He will live, because…” Chorus: I am the resurrection and the life I am…

I have found that when life throws me a curve ball and I have decided to cower in a corner and go into my safe zone, I can just reach out to Him in my heart and in my spirit and find Him. He will take me in His arms. He will lift me up again. He will give me the strength I need to go on and move forward to the work He has for me. I have found again…

When all else fails, choose to believe. The Bible tells us, Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. {Mark 9:23} God has given us the liberty and the freedom to choose, and it is up to us to choose how to live our lives. Whether we’re going to follow Him or follow the ways of the world, we have that…

We all want to be great. One way or another we all want to be somebody special – somebody who will make a big mark in this world. But so many of us end up being blown away by the demands of what it takes to be great in this world. We think we don’t have what it takes. Instead, we end up frustrated that nothing has turned out exactly as we had imagi…

Sometimes I think we forget we’re supposed to be seeking God first instead of the things of this world. We forget that the things of this world are temporary and that the things of God are eternal. Nothing we gain in this life is going with us when we die. Nothing. The only thing that we’re going to take with us is our relationship with Jesus Chris…

Yes, indeed, why forgive? Why should we? After all we’ve been hurt, and treated shamefully and unjustly. Don’t we have the right to hold grudges and stay mad? We do – if we want to stay unhappy, we definitely have every right to stay mad and angry. But at the end of the day, what does staying angry and being hurt do to us? Does it make us any happi…

Even when we’re hurting, especially when we’re hurting, it is crucial in our walk with God to keep believing. Faith is not necessary when things are going our way, it wouldn’t be faith otherwise. When things aren’t going the way it should be, that’s when we need to have faith the most. Daniel didn’t stop believing just because the presidents and th…

If we truly love ourselves we will make sure we are saved. There are no buts and ifs about it. We will fight with every heart and soul and strength we have in this life to be saved. If it means we have to be selfish about our life’s choices, and if it means shunning friends and the lifestyles that snare us away from God, so be it. We love our souls…

There is such mercy that is given to those that fear the Lord. Without the mercy of God we will all be lost on this earth. It doesn’t matter how smart or how rich and educated we are, one way or another, you and I will need the mercy of God. None of us can save ourselves in this life and from the judgment seat of Christ. Only the Lord can save us. …

We live in a world where the outside matters more than the inside. More and more in our day and age where Hollywood, the movies and the media have made such an impact in our lives, appearance is becoming everything. Many young people are more and more self-conscious of their appearance and how they look, to a point where some of them become sick an…

I understand that we shouldn’t dictate how God should fix things. Sure. But nevertheless we should ask; we need to ask…He wants us to. And furthermore I’m not averse at all about demanding from God (for lack of words) or being forceful about our desire what we want done! Yes! Absolutely! We can surely tell God what we want even to the minutest deta…

“Failure with Jesus?” How can such a thing exist? How can one fail with Jesus in your life? But we do, all the time. We fail because He’s really not the one that’s in control but we are. We like to say, “Have your way Lord Jesus in my life,” or “I give my all to You, Father,” or even “Jesus take the wheel!” But then at the onset of our day, we take…

Jesus can satisfy like no one else in this world, because He created this world. He created you and me and knows every intricate part of you and me. He is the source of all life on this earth. You can search and search all you like for happiness to fill and satisfy the longings deep inside your soul, but only He can go into your soul and satisfy it…

No one really has the power over their hearts except the Lord. Only the Lord can help us overcome the wicked thoughts and desires that can end up entering into our hearts. We live in a world today where the things that were shunned ages ago have become acceptable. Just because it is acceptable in our society today doesn’t mean it’s now good in God’…

Our intimate relationship with Jesus Christ is the most powerful weapon we have in this life. Whether it’s against the principalities and the darkness of this world, or our everyday problems (health problems, money issues, work issues, even our societal problems), you name it – having Jesus Christ and knowing Him is the greatest source of power we …
