Though a Thousand May Fall - Psalm 91
What an awesome statement! God wants us to know that even though there will be a thousand falling by our side and ten thousand at our right hand, it does not negate the promise that destruction will not approach the one who chooses to believe and trust His Word. The Amplified Bible says, “...it shall not approach you for any purpose” He means exactly what He says.
You Will Tread On The Lion and Cobra - Psalm 91
My husband says that too many Christians take authority when they should be praying, and they pray when they should be taking authority! For the most part, Jesus prayed at night and took authority all day. When we encounter the enemy—that is not the time to start praying. We need to be already “prayed up”. When we encounter the enemy, we need to be speaking forth the authority that we have in the Name of Jesus.

The Thief Comes to Steal, to Kill, and to Destroy
Jesus very simply said exactly the same thing in John 10:10—“The thief comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy....” Most people take that statement too lightly. What Jesus was saying is very literal. But in the counterpart to that—Jesus said, “...but I have come that you might have abundant life.” And the way we have that life is by thinking and acting dependently upon God rather than independently on our own.

The Laws of Sowing and Reaping
Little by little, we're beginning to realize that there are spiritual laws that are just as sure, and just as reliable, and just as certain as any physical law. Now, when this finally becomes a reality, we're going to start thinking through every action, we're going to start thinking through every word that comes out of our mouth, we're going to think through even the tone of our voice and our attitudes, because we're going to realize that all of these things are causing spiritual laws to be set into motion all the time.

The Cross Invites the Nation to Come Back to God.
We see the vertical beam of the cross and it reminds us of the love God has for us and we see the horizontal beam and it reminds us of the love that we are to share with all mankind. For our Easter Bible Study I want us to look at the story of a prophet in the Old Testament who understood about that kind of love. His Life because it represents the Resurrection Love that God offers through the Resurrected Life of Jesus! Hosea is a picture of God’s love for Israel, it is also a picture of His continuous love for all men.

Have We Been Praying Enough?
“Five minutes inside eternity and we will wish that we had sacrificed more, wept more, grieved more, loved and prayed more, and given more.”
-Leonard Ravenhill We need to ask ourselves, “How serious have I been to do my part in bringing about the miracle of this calamity being lifted off of us? How often have I been getting on my face and crying out to God for forgiveness for our nation, and crying out for forgiveness for my personal sins? |
How God Showed Me Psalm 91
Sundays were usually a comfort. For some some reason being inside the church building made the fears temporarily disappear—but not on this particular Sunday. Our pastor looked unusually serious that day as he made the announcement that one of our most beloved and faithful deacons had been diagnosed with leukemia and had only a few weeks to live...“Lord, is there any way to be protected from all the evils that are coming on the earth?”
