“And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it.” Exodus 36:2 On the mountain, God gave Moses a plan for the tabernacle that he wanted built as a place of worship for the Israelites. He gave Moses specific details for every part from the boards of the framework, to the oil that would be used in the candlestick. Many skills would be needed to accomplish this great task. They did not have the tools or…
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden…

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7 in the King James Version of the Holy Bible) Why do we give up too soon? I know how it feels when you are given a cancer diagnosis; you think it’s the end. But can I tell you that it’s not over yet. God has a plan and you are in the hollow of His hand! Having been diagnosed with breast cancer three times, I can tell you that it’s not over until God says it’s over!…
“Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” (Jeremiah 33:3, NIV) One of the first arguments I will often hear from friends who claim to be atheist is that too many bad things happen. I think we have all had moments when we question God on the evil that seems to be taking place more and more frequently in our world. Rather than question Him and grow weary, we need to let these things change us into prayer warriors. Now is not the time to question. We need to…
I listened to my friend speak these words of faith, “Giving to God is a no-risk zone. We may think we are giving so much that it feels like a risk, but it never is.” I agreed heartily, and thought, “Yes, amen!” That day I didn’t have any worries. With a bit of humor, God chose to test my faith the very next day. I found myself holding an expensive and unexpected bill, and suddenly I wanted to remind God of all my good deeds. Surely He could have prevented this from happening. Hadn’t He noticed all the money I…
Joshua 10:12, Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon. Joshua was not satisfied with a partial victory — he wanted a complete one, so he prayed an impossible prayer. Joshua 10:14, And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel. The Sun stood still, and the moon stopped for 24 hours. A Few…
