The Gift of Christ
"As the fullness of God - all that He is and all that He has - dwells in Christ, so the fullness of Christ - all that He is and all that He has - dwells in you (Colossians 2:9,10a)." We have mentioned the need to recognize and appreciate the value, worth, and preciousness of the Lord Jesus. We would... Read More

The Gift Of Holy Hatred
"I hate every false way" (Psalm 119:104b). From our earliest days as young Christians our special emphasis is on love. We are taught to love God with all our heart, love our neighbor, and love our enemy. We feel convicted if we do not love someone the way we think we should, and we ask God to give u... Read More

The Hidden Christ
Jesus, the Christ of God, did not reveal Himself to the world at large, but to a handful of disciples. We ought to ask why He did not appear upon a mountain in blinding light, or descend in a cloud, but was born into the world as a baby in a stable. A few shepherds worshipped Him the night He was bo... Read More

The Hidden Wisdom
"We speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom" (I Corinthians 2:7a). Stress, depression, frustration, and confusion are usually the result of unmet expectations. That is, we expect things to be a certain way. We have an idea as to how we think things should go (but where did this ... Read More

The Infinite Supply of the Lord
"In [Christ] are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge" (Colossians 2:3). These writings are meant to convey something of the depth of the Lord Jesus, that is, the Lord as INFINITE SUPPLY. Although material needs are important, what we have in mind here is not an earthly wealth or resourc... Read More

The Kingdom, The Power, And The Glory
"For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory forever. Amen (Matthew 6:13b)." This three-fold benediction concludes what is commonly referred to as the Lord's Prayer. It is a fitting conclusion to what we call the Prayer of the Kingdom, or the Prayer of the Overcomer. This confession is th... Read More

The Law of Life
"For the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the Law of Sin and Death (Romans 8:2)." Two laws are mentioned in this passage of Scripture: the Law of Life, and the Law of Sin and Death. We who are in Christ Jesus have been delivered from the Law of Sin and Death and are un...

The Ministry of the Watchman
Let us take up the topic of the ministry of the watchman with a text from Ezekiel 33:7 7 So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me. The watchman is a prophet and intercessor called to bring the Wo... Read More

The Perfecting Of The Saints

The Priests of the Lord - 1
What does it mean to be the Lord's minister? What is ministry? According to the popular definition of ministry I have actually been "in the ministry" for many years. I have always been in a state of either preparing for the ministry or performing ministry as I understood it. Of course, that means I ... Read More

The Priests of the Lord - 2
"They shall enter into My sanctuary and they shall come near to My table, to minister unto Me, and they shall keep My charge (Ezekiel 44:16)."

The Prisoners of the Lord
"'Do you want to know the truth? The truth is that when you were young, you dressed yourself and went wherever you wanted to go. But when you are older, you will stretch out your arms and Someone Else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go'. By this, Jesus was indicating how Peter's... Read More

The Remnant Principle - 1
"But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself... (Daniel 1:8a)."

"[The Lord] reveals the deep and secret things: He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with Him (Daniel 2:22)."

The Remnant Principle - 3
"Upon whose bodies the fire had no power (Daniel 3:27ff)." The Book of Daniel contains encouragement and wisdom for us who are being raised up as a Last Days Remnant of overcomers.

The Remnant Principle - 4
"The heavens do rule" (Daniel 4:26b). In the first three chapters of Daniel we find the spirit of Antichrist taking the offensive against the Remnant. In chapter one the point of conflict is their refusal to defile themselves with the king's meat and drink. In chapter two there is the threat to murd... Read More

The Remnant Principle - 5
It would be helpful for us to review the principles we have learned thus far. First, the Lord has a Purpose, and that is for Christ to have the preeminence in all things. In the language of Daniel, a Rock made without hands will consume and break all other kingdoms into pieces, filling the earth, an... Read More

There is a principle at work in our life and walk with the Lord, and it is the principle of strength out of weakness. "The meek are blessed, for the... Read More
