Husbands deal with a lot. Sometimes they can vent their frustration out on their spouse. You mentioned being forgetful.. this could add to his frustration. But regardless, a husband should never put their hands on their wife with the intention of causing physical harm. That's physical abuse...

On the '5-fold ministry'. What is the 5-fold ministry? The 5-fold ministry belief is a concept pulled from Ephesians 4:7-16. The gifts listed here are known as the 'ascension gifts'. These gifts are different from other (similar) lists of gifting found elsewhere in God's Word. The ascension...

The price a person will pay for being a 'hard word' prophet is this.. You will never be 'liked' as a person. Your word's will be unpopular and even despised.. by those whom the word is for, and who's conscience is spoken to by it. You won't garner 'like's' or positive responses like other...

The uncertainties of life.. We hear a lot about Christ's return and 'the rapture'.. And while these events can be traced to scripture, there is another lesson taught by Christ regarding the uncertainties of this present life. Even the uncertainty of tomorrow. The truth is, God holds the...

Paul's thorn and God's grace. What some of you may not know is that the Apostle Paul suffered from a thorn in the flesh. A thorn that was a messenger of Satan, permitted by God to afflict Paul for a divine purpose. What was this 'thorn in the flesh' and why did God allow it? Let's look at...

While it can be irritating, best thing is to not take it personally. I've had days like this where I get interrupted in the middle of a conversation without apology. I think the main issue is that people's attention span is very short due to the culture we live in (instant gratification, OR...

The 10 commandments. '1 And God spake all these words, saying, 2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing...

Something the Lord has been speaking to my heart about lately is that the Church needs to know His love. Yes, we should seek to continually turn from all manner of sin. This much is true. Yet, when I read the parable of the Sheep and the Goats.. the Lord is addressing something else entirely...

On Old Covenant paradigms and doctrine (the veil that covers the heart). Something the Apostle Paul had to combat during his ministry were those falling back into Old Covenant paradigms and belief systems. This can be seen in Galatians 3. The Galatians had been deceived by judaizers into...

On honor and respect. Something I really missed the mark on when I was younger is respecting the God-given power and spiritual authority of those ministering in their Church office. I am older now, and with a few more years in the race, I see more clearly the error of acting in youthful...

Some life-long atheists may be converted through reason or Christian apologetics certainly.. and I would say this comes by being led of the Spirit to speak what comes to us at the appointed time (Matthew 10:18-20). Others however may require a sign (or miracle) in order to be convinced, and...

On the Holy Spirit. An interesting thing happened the other day while I was working indoors. Out of nowhere, a dove swooped in next to me to gently perch right above my head. It cooed ever so softly. It was the gentlest, most comforting sound. Then the moment I moved, it quickly flew away...

Psychology and science are branches of knowledge that fall into the category of 'worldly wisdom'. I can't think of a single time the Lord Jesus used either one as the basis for His spiritual teachings. Just about everything Christ did or said.. it flipped the world He was ministering to upside...

It's not a sin to be blessed with nice things or to acquire wealth through hard work. The sin comes when material things become an idol.. i.e money itself is not evil, but the love of money is. 'For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from...

Apostasy is written of in Hebrews 6:4-8, and while some would argue that it was exclusively written to Jews.. There's too many other Scriptures that speak of falling away from the faith. '3 Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to...

Holy laughter is a real thing because those who are born-again have joy in the Holy Spirit. 'For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.' (Romans 14:17). This joy is the 'new wine' of the new covenant (Acts of the Apostles 2:15) I...

We're living in a time right now where the only prophecy we need is in God's Word. I believe there was a season for prophet's foretelling the future (this is just 1 form of prophecy, not the only one) but now I believe God is taking away His favor for this kind of prophecy. There have been...

I've never remained too convinced by deliverance minister's having extended conversations with the demons they are casting out. All demons are liars. I was watching a deliverance video of Kathryn Krick supposedly casting out a demon from a woman.. The demon said 'Nooo, I don't want her to...
