This post is a response to Kayla's inquiry about prayer. When she brought up her uncertainty about the correctness of her prayer, the first thing that came into my mind is the book of Psalms - the inspired prayer book of the Bible. Someone said that in the Psalms, we learn to pray in the school of prayer from the masters themselves. I believe these masters were…

There are times when each of us are in the pits, when life just seems to be upside down and nothing seems to be going right. As you read the Psalms, you realize King David often felt this way.

Take Psalm 88 for example. In verses 2-6 he says, Let my prayer come before You; incline Your ear to my cry. For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near to the grave. I am counted with those who go down to the pit; I am like a man who has no strength, adrift among…

If the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand



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



Say unto them, As I live says the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked;…

Two things.  (and then Romans 9)

I am not in control.  Oh sure, I can make plans and even commit them to my calendar, but in the end, I do not control whether this thing or that thing will come to pass.  ‘Fact is, I can make all sorts of plans, but the final outcome is in God’s hands.  It was many years ago when I memorized these verses, “Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit. Yet…

The presence of God turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water (Psalm 114:7-8). This is a historical fact recorded in the Bible (Numbers 20:1-13). It is a literal rock turned into springs of water.

What are the lessons we can learn from these two verses in Psalm 114? I think it is this: that no matter how difficult our…

I am trying to find the lyrics to this song. Well this is all the words I know and I am not sure they are right.

I keep coming back to the well of grace

Great is his power,

Sweet is his taste

With every temptation or trial I face 

I keep coming back to the well

While I was reading Psalm 112 this morning, the second part of verse 1 caught my attention – “Blessed is the man who fears the Lord.” And then three other things in the passage spoke to me that describe the man who fears the Lord.

1. His children will be mighty in the land, v. 2.
2. Wealth and riches are in his house, v.…

A Visitation Of The Holy Spirit

By Pastor Prema Pelletier

Sister Prema Pelletier was saved in New York City through responding to a newspaper ad, placed by a pastor who turned out to be a former Hindu.  Her testimony is amazing.  "I was raised on the grounds of a Hindu temple and worshipped the cow.  God saved my wretched soul…

1) The Dead Christian

“I know your works. You have the reputation of being alive, but you are dead.” – Revelation 3:1

The first type of Christian we find is one who is a Christian in name only. The Dead Christian may go to church, and may even claim to follow Christ, but hasn’t truly come to Him for forgiveness.

Jesus addressed the Dead Christian in Revelation 3:2-3 when He told them, “I…

It is hard to believe it was eight months ago when we first cracked open Paul’s letter to the church at Rome.  And now we find ourselves with eight chapters under our belt.  (New readers join us all the time, so for those who would like to go back and reread earlier Romans briefings, go to www.pastorwoman.com, and click on Bible teaching, Morning Briefings, and scroll down to Romans.  All 66 studies from Romans are…

Good Morning, my friends-

You are the Beloved. You are much loved by God.

And, as we read yesterday in “Love and the year 1970,” NOTHING can separate us from God’s love.

Being the Beloved expresses the core truth of our existence. 

I am putting this so directly and so simply because, though the experience of being the Beloved has never been completely absent from my life, I never claimed it as my core truth.  I kept running around it in large or small circles,…
