The Book of Hebrews defines faith, and how the just, that is those in right standing with God, shall LIVE by faith. That doesn’t mean we just try to work up some faith to get us through a time of trouble, but rather that we ABIDE CONTINUALLY in faith, that it is a way of life for us every moment of every day.

Last week I asked why we do the things we do. What if we have based our beliefs on things that may not be entirely true? Are we willing to take the time and go back and earnestly study the Bible with an open mind to see if these things we believe are really so? Or are we “settled” because our faith is in someone else’s studies and faith? In other words, have we studied these things out for ourselves so we know that we know? Continue Reading »

Maybe your plan for this year is to draw closer to God. Whatever your desire, do you think the devil is going to look at it and approve it and leave you alone to accomplish it? Not a chance.

We have all probably heard the saying “Living off the interest”. It means you have made a substantial investment and now you are receiving a return from it. And as long as you never touch the principal investment, you will always have an income from it. But what about when you need extra money, so you draw out some of the principal to make up the shortage? Number one, the principal has been diminished, so your future interest will be diminished, and number two, you have spent some of your investment. What does that have to do with healing? Glad you asked! Continue Reading »
