Open Our Understanding Lord Luke 24:45 – 45 And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures. Are you having trouble understanding the Bible? Jesus opened the disciples understanding to comprehend the meaning of the Scriptures. He surely will do the same for us if we only ask. Let us continue with the next verses. Luke 24:46-53 – 46 Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the…..
Reveal To Heal Isaiah 53:5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. This writing, “Reveal to Heal” is a testimony of how God healed my husband, Jerry, of cancer. God used this scripture, and many others, to increase my faith while doing a powerful work in Jerry’s spiritual life. This particular journey actually began in March, 2022 with the Bonati Spine Institute in Florida. After…..
Where Is Your Unction? “Where Is Your Unction?” What a funny title, what could it imply? This morning when I sat down to read The Word of God, I found myself rereading the same sentence and paragraph. I do know that we all do this from time to time, but I knew within me there were so many topics, lessons, blogs, that were stirring inside of my head, yet I did not have clarity to complete the necessary assignments. So,…..
The Power of God’s Love The POWER of God’s LOVE! What do we know about His love? We may choose to answer this question with another question: What was God’s greatest demonstration of His love for mankind? John 3:16-17 – 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the…..
WITH His Stripes We Are Healed Isaiah 53:5NKJV But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. As believers we all know this verse and most of us can recite its content by memory. We claim the promises of this scripture for ourselves and those we love, as we should. Yet, God gave me a revelation many years ago regarding a portion of this verse. I have always heard…..
Preparation Preparation for the Season – Part -1- In seeing this title, the first thing we may think about is “Christmas”, because it is the season that we celebrate the birth of Jesus. But what is the first thing you think about when you hear the word “Christmas”? Is it presents that must be purchased? Is it decorating that must be done? Are you hosting the family this year or planning the holiday parties? How many “to do” lists are…..
Great Faith In 2 Kings, chapter 4 we find the story of Elisha and the Shunammite woman. This story has been pricking my heart lately because of the great faith this woman had. The Shunammite woman recognized Elisha was a man of God and carried a special anointing. She provided food and actually prepared an upper room for Elisha and his servant to stay in as they traveled through Shunem on numerous occasions. One day while visiting, Elisha wanted to…..
Forgiveness I took this photo as the sun began to rise above the horizon. This scripture immediately came to my mind: Matthew 7:13-14 – “The Narrow Way” – 13 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. Now click on the picture if you need to. Do you see…..
Master of Breakthroughs Oh, my soul awakens with 2 Samuel 5:20 – So David went to Baal Perazim and defeated (the Philistines) there and he said, “The Lord has broken through my enemies before me, like a breakthrough of water”. Therefore, he called the name of that place Baal Perazim. (I added italics for clarification) Baal Perazim literally means: Master of Breakthroughs! Every person I know needs a breakthrough in some area of their lives, including me. We pray, “Show…..
Life Struggles So many prayer requests, terrible tragedies are being experienced by many people. Prayers of the faithful seem to be unanswered. But as Christians, we respond to the word “seem”, for we know that with God, our prayers are being answered. We know that with God, nothing is impossible. Our faith is in Him as we wait, and our peace comes through Him. We recognize those around us are losing hope for they are weakened; they cannot see above…..
