When a Nation Forgets the Fear of the Lord

We are seeing, in a very real way, what happens when a nation loses the fear of the Lord. The unraveling is not only political, social, or economic. It is spiritual. When people no longer honor God, truth becomes blurry, sin becomes normal, and wisdom is replaced with pride. The Bible says, “Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a…

Building on the Right Foundation 

Jesus said that anyone who hears His words and obeys them is like a wise person who built a house on the rock. That house may face rain, wind, and storms, but it will not fall because its foundation is strong.  In the same way, our lives need the right foundation. The only foundation that can truly hold us is…

No Middle Ground

The Father’s Heart of Love

When I think about the heart of the Father, I do not picture someone far away, cold, or hard to reach. I picture a Father who comes close. A Father who sees us, knows us, and still loves us deeply. The Bible tells us, “As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who…
