Some people are committed to nothing. Some people are committed to things that promise certain failure. Some people are committed to gambles that might pay off and might cost their lives. It is no gamble to take a chance by committing all you think and say and do to Jesus, your King. If you are taking your life and daily […]
Jesus is eternal, so satan had seen Jesus with Yahweh before he saw Jesus with Mary and Joseph. Maybe he was wondering how human Jesus was when he met Jesus in the wilderness to tempt Him. Apparently, he was surprised. After his failure, he decided, though, that there was still hope – he departed from Jesus expecting there to still […]

Jesus has been at work in your family and your city and nation and in your life since a time before you were born. He has been at work in the future that you are to influence with your life since before you were born. Nothing in your life is more important, and few things are more difficult, than discovering […]
