I just want to say that the Lord is Good. Yes, God is good, and He is good all the time. Now the Holy Spirit is God “The Spirit”. The Holy Spirit is our Comforter, and He is the Revealer of all Truth. Now when Jesus died on the Cross and arose again to be seated at the right hand of God, He promised not to leave of us orphans. John 14:26 states: But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Now I’m sure I’m not the only one who knows what the Word of God says, and forgets it from time to time. Not so much that you forget it, but that we don’t use it as often as we should. The Word of God clearly tells, as stated above, that the Holy Spirit will remind us of everything He, God, has said to us. This is whether the written Word, the Bible, an audible spoken Word (spoken by someone else) or a Word spoken to your spirit. Like I said before, God is always speaking; we need ...

Remember on "The Color Purple" Shug was singing 🎶 in the juke joint, and the church ⛪ choir began singing "God is Trying to Tell you Something".

He's trying to wake up the sinner, non-believer or the back slider to let them know that their time is running out. You choose this day whom you will serve, and in choosing you will sill your destinat...

It's the new year and everyone is making new years resolutions. We're making resolutions to be a better person, promising to eat better, to stop smoking, pay off debts, etc. These are just some of the resolutions people will be making this new year. These are good resolutions; things that will better ones life. One resolution I will be making is getting back in shape after all that holiday eating - good eating. Getting in shape is probably the number one new year resolution people will make. But most do not think about getting into "spiritual shape". There are alot of "Christians" that have been in the Church ⛪ ten plus years and have not grown/matured. They are still babes in Christ; still taking milk. The "milk" of the Word of God is good for those who are new to the Faith, and that's okay. New Christians maybe on the "milk" of the Word a few years; learning and growing. But some Christians have been on milk way too long;...
