All His Benefits!

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits.  Psalm 103:2 You know what is so great about this scripture?  Notice that it says “benefits”, not “benefit”.  God didn’t only provide forgiveness for our sins; He provides so much more for us – if we choose to receive it all.  The best part of God’s benefits is that they are FREE, and you don’t have to wait 90 days before they kick in...

Are You Wishing or Hoping?

Everywhere I turn, I am seeing good and godly people struggling just to hold on.  Friends are in dire straits financially.  Strong Christians are sick and not getting better.  Panic and fear are gripping those who should know better. This causes two things to happen:  One, anger rises up in the core of my being – anger that I still don’t have enough victory myself to be able to help them all; anger that the devil is having a field...

Still Small Voice & Cornbread Muffins!

One day, years ago, I was working in my home office and I heard God’s still small voice whisper to me, “Get up and make cornbread muffins for Larry and take them to him.” I was busy with my work and argued, “But Lord, not now, I am so busy.” A few minutes later, the voice spoke again, “Tina, get up and make cornbread muffins for Larry and take them to him NOW!” Again I argued, “Lord, I don’t have all the ingredients and will have to go to the...

God is Bigger!

When you are walking in God’s will you become an open target for the enemy.  He sees you, in spite of all your fears and other obstacles, still doing what God has led you to do.  It doesn’t make him happy – in fact, it riles him up and the intensity of his attacks on you increases.   For example: You have stepped out and faith and started that business God showed you was His will for you and almost immediately you are...
