We have all sinned and deserve God’s judgment. God, the Father, sent His only Son to satisfy that judgment for those who believe in Him. Jesus, the creator and eternal Son of God, who lived a sinless life, loves us so much that He died for our sins, taking the punishment that we deserve, was buried, and rose from the dead according to the Bible. If you truly believe and trust this in your heart, receiving Jesus alone as your Savior, declaring, "Jesus is Lord," you will be saved from judgement… Continue

The Bible says there is only one way to Heaven
Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6)
Good works cannot save you.

Trust Jesus Christ today! Here's what you must do:
Admit you are a sinner.
"For all have sinned, and come short of… Continue

VAIN is the man who puts his trust in men, in created things. Do not be ashamed to serve others for the love of Jesus Christ and to seem poor in this world. Do not be self-sufficient but place your trust in God. Do what lies in your power and God will aid your good will. Put no trust in your own learning nor in the cunning of any man, but rather in the grace of God Who…
Here's how you can fall in love with the God Jesus knows:
Seek true change in your life. God has great purposes for your life and wants to help you grow as a person. Invite God to lead you toward the best life possible and transform you into the person He wants you to become. Understand that real change comes only by changing the way you think, since your thoughts lead to your actions. So commit to examining the stories you have in your mind about God and evaluating whether they're… Continue

Here is a powerful message from my 27 year old son John. This is a timely word for many in the Body of Christ. You are going to be extremely blessed by this one.
I encourage you to sit back and receive the comfort and strength of the Holy Spirit through His Word. Whatever trial or test you are facing, know this - God is going to bring you through it victoriously - in His might and power. He is fighting your battle - even at this very hour!
Rev 2:1 TO THE angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Ephesus write: These are the words of Him Who holds the seven stars [which are the messengers of the seven churches] in His right hand, Who goes about among the seven golden lampstands [which are the seven churches]:
Rev 2:2 I know your industry and activities, laborious toil and trouble, and your patient endurance, and how you cannot tolerate wicked [men] and have tested… Continue
(If we are deeply concerned about the state of the church; if we shudder to see God’s holy Name abused and misused, not only by the world but also by His own people; if we are determined to obey God and be used by God no matter what it costs us–if we are not careful, we can become harsh and judgmental and so very, very blind to our own sins. We must always carefully examine ourselves and invite God to do so also. We must see our sins as He sees our sins: vile, disgusting and what caused Him…Continue
Acts 19.21-41 Afterward Paul felt compelled by the Spirit to go over to Macedonia and Achaia before going to Jerusalem. “And after that,” he said, “I must go on to Rome!” He sent his two assistants, Timothy and Erastus, ahead to Macedonia while he stayed awhile longer in the province of Asia. About that time, serious trouble developed in Ephesus concerning the Way. It began with Demetrius, a silversmith who had a large business manufacturing silver shrines of the Greek goddess Artemis. He kept… Continue

Praise the Lord for this new day!! His mercies are new every morning. Ahhhh!! We can start again, leaving yesterday's hassles behind, and tackle the things that bothered us then with a new vigour and a fresh mind. Thank the Lord for a refreshing sleep.
And as I sit with Lord on our front verandah, enjoying my morning cuppa, I marvel in this day. For us it is the first of spring. As I soak up the warmth of the morning sun, I also soak… Continue
Half-way through the day
With so much left undone;
I’m tired and I’m tempted
To quit what I’ve begun.
Bowed ‘neath expectations
Of what I ought to be..
Falling short again, I feel
Like I’ve run out of me.
Oh, Lord, please be my strength
When I cannot go on.
Battles I cannot fight
You have already won.
My legs are too weary
Another hill to climb..
At the end of my strength
Almighty Lord, be… Continue

I have been going through a period of depression and despair, especially this past weekend. I wasn't sure what the problem was. I took some antidepressants but that didn't seem to work. I have been really tired but unable to get a full night's sleep.
I am scheduled for a complete physical on Thursday. At almost 56 years of age I am sure some of my parts aren't working as well as they used to. I can certainly feel the difference. And I have gained weight like never before. So, I guess… Continue

"Hard words indeed break no bones, but many a heart has been broken by them." - Matthew Henry
We live in a world filled with reckless words - cutting, killing, careless, and irresponsible words which are spoken rashly, quickly, hastily, inadvisably, or indiscreetly. The result? There are many broken people who are seeking desperately to function in everyday life and yet cannot seem to move ahead. They look around at others and wonder - What makes me so different? What is holding me… Continue

Well, why don’t you treat me like you used to do? How come you treat me like a worn out shoe?
My hair’s still curly and my eyes are still blue.

And say sweet nothings like you used to do?

So, why don’t you love me like you… Continue

We pursue God because we are pursued by Him. We aren’t thrown to the wind by Him to see if we can find out way Home alone. He pursues us. He draws us. Even as we seek Him, He is the One in control.
Jesus says that no one comes to Him unless the Father draws him. Each step of the way, each time I wistfully looked farther down the road hungering for a Reality that I was so sure of and yet so unclear about, He was there guiding me, drawing me, pursuing me in my pursuit of… Continue

For as long as I can remember, the calling of our Father has been upon mine, and my wifes heart. Four years ago the Lord moved, and led us to start establishing His Ministry. It was to be, and is a ministry annointed by our Father to unite His church, and to bring His children home. After much planning and in our Father's timing, approximately one year ago, Forthknight Ministries was physically established. However, I write to you not to expound on the…Continue
