04/27 PEACE BE WITH YOU! Following the morning Resurrection of Jesus, this incredible account is recorded in John 20:19-20: “On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, ‘Peace be with you!’ After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.” More...
04/20 “WHO IS IT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR?” This is the question Jesus asked Mary Magdalene on His magnificent Resurrection Morn. It’s the same one He is asking us this Easter morning.
04/15 “THE SPIRIT OF GOD WHO RAISED JESUS FROM THE DEAD, LIVES IN YOU. AND JUST AS GOD RAISED CHRIST JESUS FROM THE DEAD, HE WILL GIVE LIFE TO YOUR MORTAL BODIES BY THIS SAME SPIRIT LIVING WITHIN YOU.” Romans 8:11.God’s Holy week, appointed for the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus , is all part of a much bigger plan than most of us could ever imagine.

04/13 “LET MY PEOPLE GO… 3500 years ago under a full moon during the spring season, The Almighty announced His presence to a world power that had a stranglehold over the people who worshipped Him. God announced His intention to free them through a series of plagues which rearranged their daily lives, decimated their national economy, wracked them with disease, disrupted their weather patterns, devastated their food supply, increased insects to unbearable swarms, and plunged them into darkness for days. Finally, with the 10th plague of death, even people who didn’t worship Him were brought to their knees. More...
04/06 I WILL BRING ONE MORE PLAGUE… 3500 years ago, under the midnight illumination of a full moon, God brought a final plague upon a proud, haughty nation that would convince them once and for all that He was God. He would bring death to every household. Only the life’s blood of an innocent lamb could save them. But they would have to choose that lamb themselves, care for it in their homes, and together, sacrifice it so that they might live. Appointed death would “pass over” them if the innocent’s blood marked their abode. (Exodus 11-12) More...
03/30 IN THE BEGINNING GOD… When Apollo 8 carried mankind into lunar orbit for the first time on December 24, 1968, a billion people on Earth heard the Word of God being broadcast 240,000 miles above them. "We are now approaching lunar sunrise. For all the people back on earth, the crew of Apollo 8 has a message we would like to send to you. 'In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth...’"
03/23 LIKE A BRIDEGROOM… “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. “In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun. It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course. It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other...” Psalm 19:1-6 More...
03/16 FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS… It all began with an official who had an intense hatred for a group of people who had become part of his nation. He used his position to persuade the King to schedule their total annihilation. God intervened, prompting an unlikely savior of the people through these timeless words: "And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?” More...
03/09 "I AM THE LORD AND THERE IS NO OTHER." These are the words of God Almighty crossing the chasm of time to remind us that His choices are perfect. Incredibly, He ordained the Father of Iran, King Cyrus of Persia, to rebuild the Temple, and supervise the return of His exiled people to Jerusalem, guaranteeing the survival of the line of David, and the gift of His Son, Jesus Christ. More...
03/02 THEN THEY WILL KNOW THAT I AM THE LORD… These are God's Words, delivered through the Watchman Ezekiel to the ancient nation of Egypt, once the wealthiest and most influential nation in the entire world. Millennia later, the glory of the Pharaohs is long gone, and all that remains is the image of their ancient footprint, seen here through the interior window of the Pizza Hut across the street, nicknamed “Pizza Tut”. More...
02/23 BABYLON…COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE. We need this timely warning that the infamous biblical Babylon and her expansive walls still exists. We Christians are literally surrounded by her idols and mindset. Given the call of the Almighty to "Come out of her, my people!", will we listen and repent? More...
02/16 A CITY WITHOUT WALLS...God's Word crosses the chasm of 2700 years with a timeless message for 2025. When the prophet Zechariah had a vision of “a man with a measuring line in his hand” headed to measure Jerusalem's walls, God dispatched an angel with this chastising message: "Jerusalem will be a city without walls... And I myself will be a wall of fire around it," declares the Lord, "and I will be its glory within." More...
02/09 A MAN RIDING A RED HORSE… About 2700 years ago, the prophet Zechariah received night-visions that began with a man riding a red horse. These heavenly revelations from the Almighty continue to inspire and encourage His people, especially today. God is still here, working behind the scenes, monitoring each and everything that happens. He has a perfect overall plan for His creation, and we are a distinct and integral part of it all. He is restoring His spiritual temple and kingdom on this earth through His faithful people. More...
01/31 YOU HAVE STAYED LONG ENOUGH AT THS MOUNTAIN… Around 1500 BC, God Almighty announced through Moses that the Israelites had to move forward away from their comfort zone in order to follow Him. “In the fortieth year, on the first day of the eleventh month, Moses proclaimed to the Israelites all that the LORD had commanded him concerning them…The LORD our God said to us at Horeb, ‘You have stayed long enough at this mountain. Break camp and advance…” Deuteronomy1:3,6 More...
01/19 “I AM THE LORD” 2600 years ago, God Almighty repeated this announcement over 70 times to His chosen people and the surrounding nations through the prophet Ezekiel. Whether we believe it or not, He continues to announce it today to every nation in the entire world.
01/12 “PUT THE POT ON THE FIRE” 2600 years ago, on the 10th day of God's appointed 10th month, beginning the evening of January 9 on our 2025 calendar, The Almighty spoke these eternal words: “The people there refuse to obey me. I have a story with a message for them. Tell them, "This is what the Lord God says: 'Put the pot on the fire.' " Ezekiel 24:3. More...
01/05 WITH THEIR MOUTHS THEY EXPRESS DEVOTION, BUT THEIR HEARTS ARE GREEDY FOR UNUST GAIN… This week’s timely message on Gods calendar is about another time and place where a religious people felt very self-righteous about their position in the world. What eventually happened to them was predictable, yet totally avoidable. More...
12/25 “I AM GOD’S SON”… During this exact same time of the year 2000 years ago, while everyone else was celebrating a festival, Jesus continued doing the same thing He had done for the past 3 years. Knowing His death was only a few months away, Jesus appealed to religious folks to believe that He was the Son of God. His revelations shook their world and continue to shake ours today as we contemplate the true meaning of our “holiday” celebrations. More... |
