Help For Life’s Blind Spots
I recently read about a man who was standing in his restroom, about to step upon the bathroom scales, when his wife walked in on him. The story goes that as he stepped onto the scales, the man inhaled a gigantic mouthful of air and held his breath. This confused his watching wife and caused her to ask, “Honey, why did you inhale? You know that inhaling won’t make you weigh any less.” To that, he replied, “I know that. I didn’t inhale to try to reduce my weight. I inhaled so that I could suck in my stomach so that I could see the numbers on the scales and know just how much I weigh.” Please...
Help! I’m a Fickle Man!!!
I have discovered a deep-rooted issue in my life: I am a fickle person. When it comes to forming certain opinions, I find myself changing my mind on subjects that I once thought were absolute. For example, when Vickie cooks her marvelous chicken-fried steak, I am quick to say that this meal is my all-time favorite that she cooks. Then, a few days later, when she cooks her incredible pot roast with potatoes and carrots, the chicken-fried steak becomes an ancient memory, and now the pot roast is my all-time favorite meal. And, when she cooks her … well, the list could go on and on. And, it's...
The Holy Ghost Lottery?
When Vickie and I lived in South Florida, I would see a large billboard on my drive to and from the church each day that advertised the Florida lottery and its possible payouts. At times, the payout would be in the tens of millions of dollars, and at other times, in the hundreds of millions of dollars. To many Floridians, this was quite tempting, so tempting that thousands and thousands of people each week spent their hard-earned money for what might equal a one chance in 150 million for walking away with the lottery prize. And the State of Florida was all the more grateful for the weekly...
How to Have a Hulk Hogan Spirit Man
Are you looking for an excellent way to illustrate the value of praying daily in the Spirit? For this illustration, you will need barbells or dumbbells. We all know the value of lifting weights. (Demonstrate by lifting and lowering the barbells or dumbbells as you share these thoughts.) With complete confidence, we know that with every lift of these heavy objects, our bodies undergo physical change. Our muscles are being strengthened. Our stamina is being stretched. Each lift of the weight will cause today’s ten-lift limitation to yield to a possible twelve lifts tomorrow and a possible...
Want to See God’s Power?
Here’s a no-brainer … if you have two apples and then add two more apples, you can rest assured that you will now have four apples. Too simple? Well, it should be. Adding two plus two will always equal four. Always has, always will. It’s just a given! Ready for another no-brainer? (Warning — this New Testament given will have you up on your feet and shouting.) “If we preach the original gospel, we will have the original results.” ~ Reinhard Bonnke "Holy Spirit: Are We Flammable Or Fireproof?" Isn’t that powerful? (You have my permission to quit reading and start rejoicing for a couple of...
