Pray The Word
In 2010, we learned first-hand the importance of knowing and praying God's Word over your situation. In fact, I believe it's what saved our son's life. When he was given a 50/50 chance of survival after [...]
Finding Real Life
How do people live without God? I recently encountered this on two very different levels. My husband and I were asked to minister to a family going through a crisis. When we arrived, it was quickly [...]
Move the Stones!
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 Jesus made it very clear: the SEED is the Word of God and the GROUND is man's heart. In the parable of the sower, Jesus went on to [...]

Afraid of What I’d Miss
"In the way of righteousness is life, and in its pathway there is no death" (Proverbs 12:28). Hold a man's head under water, and he will fight you to come up for air. It's in every [...]
More Precious Than Gold
There's always a lot of discussion about our monetary system, and those who have invested in gold have seemingly made a wise decision because its value continues to increase. But there is one commodity apparently far [...]
Don’t Be Bullied
At any stage of life, our enemy, the devil, loves using the weaknesses of our flesh as a weapon against us; much like the bully who grabs our wrist, swinging it toward our face, yelling, "Quit [...]
Quick to Help?
I wonder if we ever thought about the fact that Jesus didn't interview the people before He fed them? Yet, as His followers today, we are prone to ask questions like, "Why are you in this [...]
How To Be Led By the Spirit of God
With a show of hands, how many of you wish you could know exactly what God wants you to do? Well, I can't see your hands, but I'm pretty confident 100% of you raised them. How [...]
Which is Easier? Faith or Fear?
Which is easier to say, "O you of little faith" or "O you of great fear"? I think we have failed to fully realize the emphasis Jesus was making when He pointed out the measure of [...]
Is God For Us or Against Us?
Interesting question: Is God for us or against us? I'm assuming you immediately answered that in your heart (or maybe even out loud) with a big YES, of course He's for us! Isn't this the core [...]
Don’t Let the Devil Take That Field!
There’s a story in 2 Samuel 23, just a couple of verses, with a very powerful truth. King David had a group of mighty men that followed his leadership and fought alongside him for the things [...]
Choose, Chose, Chosen
"For many are called, but few are chosen" (Matthew 22:14). This may be one of the most questioned scriptures of all time. In fact, at a particular event I speak at regularly, a question about this [...]
Don’t Short-Circuit Your Miracle
"Don't ever short-circuit a miracle by trying to see it in progress!" --Kenneth Copeland Because our natural eyes often dictate our next move (i.e. we see a stray ball coming our way so we duck, or [...]
Check Your Heart
Jesus said, "The words that I speak to you are spirit and they are life. But there are some of you who do not believe." Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not [...]
Hell Can’t Put Out the Light
"In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it" (John 1:4-5). If you want to frustrate Hell, let your [...]
