Reflections
Greetings and blessings to all of you. There is a question that needs to be asked in the times we are living in and that is ARE WE A SELF-DECEIVED PEOPLE? Do we know our true Spiritual condition? We may look good to others as we pose for family pictures (church/at home) but that is just the outward appearance. The heart condition is not caught by the camera. God confronted the church of Laodicea. In I Sam.16:7 “For the Lord sees not as man sees. For man looks on the outward appearance but the Lord looks on the heart.” God said, “I know your works that you are neit...

God has always orchestrated world events since creation. Do you think He did know about David and Bathsheba and the murder that ensued? God knew the Messiah must come through David and through David’s son Solomon. With that; God still allowed this behavior. Do you think God did not know about Solomon? After giving him riches and wisdom, Solomon married over 500 wives in order to gain political power and those ladies would have him worshipping o...

Being part of this culture madness as a believer the question came to me to ponder…Can God bless America without compromising His reputation as a Holy God? No, He cannot! Maybe we need to ask God today…. Lord Jesus what do we need to do to be blessed? Many of us prefer to get “blessed” without any conditions. But God has conditions; for us individually and the nation. Morality is important to God. God has said, “Not everyone who says to me, Lord Lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the w...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. I read a statement concerning the moral decline of our nation. It said, “if the moral fiber of this country continues to erode, and people continue to ignore the Bible, then the demise of this country is only a matter of time.” Do you believe that? Think for a minute. What is the basis for morality in our nation? It has become “you do you...and I do me” or “whatever is right for you...do it” or “if everybody seems okay with it….it must be okay” Saints, do you see the problem in t...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. It has been said, “Our nation is adrift. We are like a ship without a rudder, compass, or even a goal. We do not know where we are going because we have forgotten from where we have come.” God is the foundation of the world; but do you realize that whole generations of Americans have grown up without the foggiest idea of what God has to say about government…the institution that wants to control us? God had and have a lot to say about government. God knows that mankind is evil and needs certain restraints because of the evil ...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. As a Christian born in a Christian nation do you sometimes feel like the world is spinning out of control? Violence is surging in America’s cities, police are under assault, a war is going on with the Christian military members and their religious liberty, there is a definite moral decline in the cities and for a period of time there has been a movement to systematically destroy the Judeo-Christian foundation of our country, In 1962 no more praying in schools; in 1973 legalized abortion appeared; in the 80s and 90s the Ten Commandments monumen...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. How important is “the fear of the Lord?” In Proverbs 14:27 it states, “The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, turning a man from the snares of death.” Is the fear of man something that ensnares only a few? The Apostle Paul says that by nature, men outside of Christ have “no fear of God before their eyes.” Roman 3:18. However, even the godliest saint still has remnants of this fear of man in his or her soul. At times even believers choose to warm themselves at the fire of acceptance, like Peter did...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. “My God my God why have you abandoned me? Why are you so far away when I groan for help? Every day I call to you, My God but you do not answer. Every night I lift my voice, but I find no relief.” Psalm 22:1-2 Jesus knows our suffering. He was called the Suffering Servant. The suffering maybe physical or emotional. But God; He feels a compassion to help. Everyday God grants us grace and mercy. In First Peter 5:6-10 the Word says, “Humble yourselves therefore under the God’s mighty hand that he may lift you up in due time...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. In I Thess. 4:16-17 “for the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus, we shall always be with the Lord.” My question to all of us…Are you ready? Phil. 3:20 says, “Our citizenship is in heaven from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.” Did you know that G...
(Read More)Greetings and blessings to all of you. In James Chap.1:9-11 the Word reads, “let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation and the rich in his humiliation because like a flower of the grass he will pass away. For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass its flowers falls and its beauty perishes; so also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.” Did you also know that the Word says, “for you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you (by his poverty) might becom...
