Protects Those Who Love HIM: Psalm 145

February 25, 2022

Dear Ones: In these troubling times it is good to reflect on David’s words about the faithfulness of the love of GOD for those who cry out to HIM for help in their times of need. The natural circumstances seemingly contradict these words. Remember, David went through being hunted by the Philistines and King Saul…

Children of Light: Colossians 1

February 24, 2022

Dear Ones: It seems that the darkness is winning, if we look with our natural eyes. But the truth is that through the Cross the Father has delivered us from the power of darkness. Ephesians 5:8 tells us that we were once darkness (under its power) but in Christ we are Light and we are…

God’s Provisions: Spiritual Attire

February 23, 2022

Our Latest Video: Spiritual Attire This lesson continues to look at the great provision we have because of the Cross of Christ. We have been given Spiritual Attire.

His Exuberant Love: Zephaniah 3

February 23, 2022

Dear Ones: You may have heard someone say, “God loves you.” But in truth we are limited in our vocabulary to describe HIS love for us. This verse reveals how the LORD rejoices over us with singing joyful songs about us. This puts HIS love in another light. HIS Love is exuberant: joyously unrestrained and…

Power, Love, and Self-Discipline

February 22, 2022

Dear Ones: This is an often-quoted verse, but it is good to stop and meditate on it. My pastor in New Orleans used to say that he chewed on verses to get all the “goodie” out of them. Christians are to be led by Holy Spirit. There is no fear found in Holy Spirit only…

Love Others–Love God

February 21, 2022

Dear Ones: We do things everyday and not even consider the consequences of our actions. But the LORD takes note of everything. The Word says in Matthew 25:40 that when we do good for the brethren, we are doing it for the LORD. When we release the Love of God and HIS kindness toward others,…

Tapestry of Love: Colossians 2

February 18, 2022

Dear Ones: These words of the Apostle Paul reveal the tapestry of Love: The Body of Christ. We are woven into this fine tapestry together with other Christians to reveal the Christ: God’s great mystery. Through HIM and in union with HIM we have access to the treasures of the Kingdom in all wisdom and…

Extravagant Love of God: 2 Corinthians 13

February 17, 2022

Dear Ones: I release this blessing over you and yours today. The Love of God is extravagant. Extravagant in this sense is boundless, limitless, lavish, over-the-top in sincerity and forever. How about that? A Christian should never say, “No one really loves me.” The Master, Jesus, loves you and thought about you while HE hung…

Loyal in Your Love: Micah 6

February 16, 2022

Dear Ones: The Word of God is wonderful. When you dig into the Word you find gold nuggets of truth and instruction. The Message Bible brings clarity and light to how the LORD wants us to live an overcoming life, in HIM. As we have come to realize our love walk with the LORD and…

    Dear Ones: Greater Love! The Master said these words on the night He was betrayed before He was taken by the soldiers. He was preparing them for what was to come. However, His words ring true for every believer throughout the ages. Since the wages of sin is death, He paid for the sin of…

  • One Body
    by marydovie
    June 5, 2025
    Dear Ones: One Body! Paul uses the comparison of the natural human body to explain the mystery of the Body of Christ. Just like the natural body, the spiritual Body of Christ has many parts with each part having its own purpose. Every believer is connected to each other by love: Christ’s love for us…

    June 3, 2025
    Dear Ones: Journey through Life! As we travel the timeline of our life, we are not alone. The Lord is our constant companion. In fact, the light of His face guides our way so that the darkness cannot overwhelm us. His mere presence lifts our spirits and encourages us. However, the requirement for this happy…

  • You are to Shine
    by marydovie
    June 2, 2025
    Dear Ones: You are to Shine! Oh my! Paul tells us that we are to do things without grumbling or complaining. “Lord, help us. We need Your grace to thwart the vicious cycle of mummering.” It is a soulish kneejerk reaction to strike back when people talk against us unfairly. Gossips gossip and enjoy destroying…
