I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert” (Isaiah 43:18-19, KJV). “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end” (Jeremiah 29:11, KJV). As we look ahead, we should be filled with hope and expectation. The Lord Himself declares, “Behold, I will do a new thing” (Isaiah 43:19).…
“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” (Matthew 24:14, KJV). “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and…

Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts. Zechariah 4:6. A few years ago in prayer God spoke to my spirit and said, “It’s time for you to walk in your apostolic authority.” I didn’t understand what God meant, so I asked for instruction.

Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Ephesians 6:16 The shield of faith, along with the other pieces of the armor of God, is vital to our spiritual longevity. This defensive weapon not only shields us from the enemies attack, but it is a weapon of versatility and power. When our flesh or a voice of oppression says, “this is too hard for God.” Faith says, “Nothing is too hard for the Lord.” When the enemy says, “Your family member will never serve God,” faith…
When Jesus heard that, He said, “This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.” (John 11:4, NKJV) Not long ago, a friend asked me a difficult question. It may be a question you have been asked or one that you have asked. My friend, who has served God all her life, is experiencing long-term difficulties because of an accident. In her frustration, she asked, “If God saw this was going to happen, why didn’t He stop it?” Have you ever thought something similar? I think most of us have…
“O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles. Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.” Psalm 43:3-4 Yesterday we looked at Psalm 42. Today we will consider Psalm 43 which appears to be a continuation of David’s prayer. Rising above his discouragement, now he is asking the Lord to restore him to his kingdom. David wants to go home. Is he missing the palace with all…
