James 5:13-18 shows the prayer of faith (Mark 11:22, in the God whose word we believe), is essential for total healing (physical, mental, and spiritual), but first there must be an atmosphere of faith (believing God). In Mark 16:14-18, once we have the atmosphere of believing God’s word (true faith, John 4:22-24; not an emotional […]
Two very important prepositional phrases of giving thanks to God, we need to learn, obey, and practice daily. are found in Ephesians 5:20: “giving thanks always FOR ALL THINGS to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,” and 1 Thessalonians 5:18, “IN EVERYTHING give thanks; for this is the will of […]
Second Corinthians 13:5 asks an important question to be truthfully answered: Examine our self so we know if we are living by faith, and if we know we are living by faith; then we know Jesus Christ lives in us; otherwise, we are disqualified as a believing Christian. And Ephesians 3:17 assures us Christ Jesus […]
Our Lord Jesus tells us in John 16:13-14, when the Holy Spirit comes into us and we fully accept Him for who He is and all He can and will do in and through us; the Holy Spirit of truth will guide us into the truth of the Godhead, as revealed in Scripture. He will […]
Jesus says, in John 10:1-21, He is salvation’s door, life, sin’s forgiver, to resurrect with our abundance of life, but the enemy [Satan, the devil], cannot create, give life, or control death and life; he can only steal, kill, and destroy as God commands him. Never blame God for anything, but give God credit for […]

But why did Jesus, quote […]
Knowing absolutely nothing about Facebook, and have never wanted to know, yet at the continuous prompting of the Holy Spirit, I submitted to write weekly my thoughts and send them out in prayer to help others as the Lord has helped me. Kim showed I have already made many unknowing mistakes. Kim did all the […]
James 2:13 seems contradictory, for it says God’s “Mercy triumphs over (His) judgment”. But how is this possible, when God is totally just and total mercy—this is what God is—two of His many attributes? God is all just; therefore, God must judge all sin, yet God is also all mercy, but He cannot allow the […]
John 4:1-26 is the story of Jesus at “noon, the sixth hour”, at Jacob’s well in Samaria, Israel, where He explained to a Samaritan woman who He is, by telling the details of her life, for she wanted to know where and how proper “worship” was to be done, so Jesus explained “God is Spirit, […]
