    Are you even running with the footmen?

    Jeremiah received his call from God to prophesy against Israel’s idolatry, at a young age. The King James uses the word “Child” in verse 6 of chapter 1, and other versions say “youth”; it is estimated he was about 20 years old. Although he actually received his calling as a young man, notice ...read more

    It is easier to be a freeloader. Easier to be a leech. It is easier to relax in the embracing arms of The Average. Easier, but not better. Easier but not more significant. Easier but not more fulfilling. God has called you to a life of purpose.

    Jesus would not "fly away," and so, they crucified him... Why did the world hate Jesus? Why does the world hate you?

    Title: "The Great Speckled Bird" Introduction: Years ago I heard a song sung about the "great speckled bird." I had no idea of what the singer was singing about.

    Running With Horses

    Perhaps you’ve run into some difficulties recently: your boss, an illness, conflicts in family. You’ve pleaded with the Lord for relief. But He may have said in response, “Toughen up. Dig in. It may get worse.” And then He asks you to “run with horses."

    Opening illustration: Can you imagine what it would be like to be at a track meet waiting for the start of the 100 meter race? Gathered together are the top runners from across the world. Fractions of a second separate these runners. While the marathon is a test of stamina and endurance, the 100 ...read more
