Dear Ones: Mighty and very real are the wings of the eagle. They have been given for flight, but not only for low-level cruising, but for the heights…for soaring. And here the Christian is called to live…in the heights…by the power of God, believing that He who gave the eagle his wings for the heights,…
Dear Ones: One of the great characteristics of this Life to which we are called to live is that it is eternal. What does this mean to us? Certainly, we come face to face with that which will endure, last, never grow old, or fade in its essence or purpose. Now, contrast that with the…
Dear Ones: How simple is faith? Someone has said that the Gospel of John is so deep that an elephant can bathe in it, and shallow, safe enough for a child to play in its shallows. Is this not the case with faith? We find children in the old testament and the new who had…
Dear Ones: What was the purpose of the Lord giving to David the 23rd Psalm? Was it not to reveal to us through the insight and experience of David how we can KNOW God? Throughout Scripture, the Lord in His goodness reveals to us pictures of what it means to know Him, to experience Him. …

He is the author, architect, builder, even the very essence of all accomplished in us that is “good.” James tells us: “Every good gift, and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh…
Dear Ones: The most important moment of our lives is NOW. We are called to live in the present moment, in the will of God, receiving all from Him, for the full out working of His purpose in and through us. We cannot live in the present if we are looking in the past. Such…
Dear Ones: Times and civilizations come and go. Kingdoms rise and fall. But that which is consistently true of God never changes, in particular with respect to a throne in heaven. In the book of Isaiah, we find in chapter 6, the vision that Isaiah had of the Lord, and in particular, the throne upon…
Dear Ones: How much faith did the little boy have when he brought the five loaves and two fishes to the disciples, to give to others, even to a multitude? How much faith did the little servant girl have when she told Naaman’s wife that there was a prophet in Samaria that could heal him…
Dear Ones: If there is one thing that the Lord will not accept, or abide by, it is FAITHLESSNESS…or commonly known as “unbelief.” Nothing is possible without faith, and all becomes possible with it. Why is this so? It is because of the nature of God…He is FAITHFUL. What does this mean? When we look…
Dear Ones: The apostle Paul, in addressing the Corinthian church, once asked, “Is Christ divided?” (1 Cor. 1:13) Of course, the answer to the question is “No.” Believers in the body of Christ may “think” that He is divided, because they are by their attitudes, but He is NEVER divided. He cannot be. Now let’s…
