O Lord, how long shall I cry for help, and you will not hear? Habakkuk 1:2 I think we can all relate to Habakkuk in one way or another.

Faith of a Centurion
Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed.

Walking with Caleb
Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, “Let us go up at once and occupy it, for we are well able to overcome it.” Numbers 13:30 Upon the Lord’s instruction, Moses called twelve men, a chief from each tribe, to spy out the land of Canaan.

Going Forward in Confidence
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20 As you resolve to go into this year… Continue reading Going Forward in Confidence
Take God At His Word
“I say to you, rise, pick up your bed and go home.” And immediately he rose up before them and picked up what he had been lying on and went home, glorifying God. LUKE 5:24,25 We all have doubts from time to time regarding our own ability. God speaks to us clearly, but instead of… Continue reading Take God At His Word
