When God Steps In

God told Moses, “Look at me…I am going to put Pharaoh’s back up and follow it up by filling Egypt with signs and wonders. Pharaoh is not going to listen to you, but I will have my way against Egypt and bring out my soldiers, my people the Israelites, from Egypt by mighty acts ofContinueContinue reading “When God Steps In”

I Was Blind But Now I See!

“Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life.” (John 9:3 NIV) The blind man in John 9 lived with a label all his life until Jesus came along, that is. Since his birth, he was known for his disability.ContinueContinue reading “I Was Blind But Now I See!”

Only Faith Beyond This Point

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. (Hebrews 11:6 NIV) If faith is the key we need to unlock the doors we must pass through in life, not many of us would getContinueContinue reading “Only Faith Beyond This Point”

God Has the Last Say

“Go back to Hezekiah, the leader of my people. Tell him, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of your ancestor David, says: I have heard your prayer and seen your tears.

Behind the Scenes

Peter sent them all out of the room; then he got down on his knees and prayed. (Acts 9:40 NIV) Peter had become well known for healing the sick.

A Walking Miracle

But since they could see the man who had been healed standing there with them, there was nothing they could say… For the man who was miraculously healed was over forty years old. (Acts 4:14, 22 NIV) When things continued to look dim, the mother seemed to lose all hope that her daughter could everContinueContinue reading “A Walking Miracle”

Christ’s Witnesses

The man who had been healed begged to go with him. But Jesus sent him off and said, “Go back home and tell everyone how much God has done for you.” The man then went all over town, telling everything that Jesus had done for him. (Luke 8:38-39 CEV) Although “Everyone from around Gerasa beggedContinueContinue reading “Christ’s Witnesses”

Give Him a Shout-Out

Next a poor demon-afflicted wretch, both blind and deaf, was set down before him. Jesus healed him, gave him his sight and hearing. The people who saw it were impressed—“This has to be the Son of David!” But the Pharisees, when they heard the report, were cynical. “Black magic,” they said. “Some devil trick he’sContinueContinue reading “Give Him a Shout-Out”

Seldom Early but Never Late

There’s a quote that says, “God is seldom early, but He is never late.” We find that true of the following stories in the Gospels. Jesus showed up after… -Lazarus was dead for 4 days;-Jairus’ 12 year-old daughter had died;-the widow’s son was dead;-the woman had spent all her money on doctors who couldn’t findContinueContinue reading “Seldom Early but Never Late”

Spiritual Blindness

“I was blind but now I see!” (John 9:25 NIV) After healing the man born blind, Jesus went on to talk about spiritual blindness. See, the devil can spiritually blind us to many things, but God is able to open our eyes so we can see the truth. Prior to his conversion, Paul, or SaulContinueContinue reading “Spiritual Blindness”
