I am often dismayed to see people flock to ministries promising wealth, miracles, and influence in the Name of God. The attendance numbers are staggering. Loud music along with a stage show entertains, while people wait in anticipation for the “apostle’s” words of encouragement while being reminded to give abundantly so they will receive blessings…
How do we see? For some it would be hind-sight. For others it can be blind-sight. And there are even those who use rose colored-sight. What type of sight does Yahweh want us to use? In my estimation, it’s how we view ourselves, others, and our circumstances that affect our Kingdom vision. Do the pictures…
Have you ever heard someone say, “I only read the Word for my spiritual understanding!” But what exactly does this mean? As sinful humans – do we have the capacity to fully understand the Word? Do we need any help? The Apostle John wrote these words: “In the Beginning was the Word and the Word…

A few years back, a nephew of mine was growing weary of an uphill climb. He complained about being too tired and started to separate himself from the rest of the group. As he lagged a good deal behind, I called out to him saying, “Do you know that cougars attack anyone not with the…
Over the years, I have known many who witness the workings and miracles of YHWH. Some speak in a heavenly language. Others have come to know and accept the Lord after a near death experience. But yet, I have seen these same people fall away from the Redeemer. If the concept of “once saved…
Have you ever been to a service where people are calling out for the Ruach HaKodesh (known as the Holy Spirit) to descend on a body of Believers? Many times, it can get loud and even a bit chaotic in their efforts to “call the Spirit down.” Is this supported by the Scriptures? This week…
