There are many who know “how to be abased” who have not learned “how to abound.” When they are set upon the top of a pinnacle their heads grow dizzy, and they are ready to fall. The Christian far oftener disgraces his profession in prosperity than in adversity. It is a dangerous thing to be…
We are switching to a new theme for our blog. It will take some time to get things set right. Thanks for your patience….
So much that is spoken in this world is untrue and empty talk. Be encouraged that God speaks in promise. His Word is pure and true. When you are surrounded by lies, rest on the promises of the Bible. – Warren Wiersbe
The safest place in all the world is in the will of God, and the safest protection in all the world is the name of God. – Warren Wiersbe
He is not far from you. You must turn to him, and when you turn, his light is already shining full on you. What a great truth it is, how full of courage, this truth that we may go away from God, but God cannot go away from us! How God loves his own great…
“What the wicked fears will come upon him,But the desire of the righteous will be granted.” The wicked can only live in fear. Notice their responses to the recent terrorist attack in Europe. They may have a lot of loud words and get busy with security, but down deep there is fear. When a person…
