    It’s Time to Stand Up & Speak Up!

    Matthew 5:11-12: “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. “Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.“ I believe that I am a person who wants to…

    Stay The Course No Matter The Situation

    Isaiah 26:3: “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.“ It sounds a little strange that I use the book of Isaiah to talk about another prophet by the name of Jeremiah but when you think of one man in the Bible that went through incredible circumstances and yet stayed faithful to…

    Who Is Leading Your Relationship?

    Romans 8:13: “For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.“ This is the way the Lord wants us to live our lives, that we are so connected to the Holy Spirit that we are continually listening to…

  • Is It Truth or Absolute Truth?

    Is It Truth or Absolute Truth?

    John 17:17: “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.“ When we talk about what is wrong with America today, I think the greatest problem that we face is that we have moved away from the truth. For me, the greatest evidence of truth is the word of God. I believe that the Bible is…

    Mother’s Day

    Exodus 20:12: “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD your God is giving you.“ This is one of the commandments that the Lord has given to us with a promise attached to it. If we will honor our Mothers that our days will be…

    Psalms 122:1: “I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go into the house of the Lord.” It is hard to believe that it has been 22 years that the doors opened for the Grace Bible Church.  18 People met in a home for the first time. That same week we got a…

    Do You See Obstacles or Opportunities?

    I Corinthians 19:8-9: “But I will tarry in Ephesus until Pentecost. For a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.“ The apostle Paul didn’t look at the world though human eyes, for most when they would see adversaries or objections or obstacles they would try to find some way…

    Glimpses Of The Future

    Matthew 24:6: “And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not near yet.“ This part of the Olivet Discourse is that when the disciples ask the Lord Jesus when will these things be? And what…

    Giving Is A Relationship With The Lord

    Luke 6:38:“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.” What a great promise for the Child of God. Let me give it to you from…

    Easter Sunday

    I Corinthians 15:55-57: “O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?” The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” What is the most important proof that Jesus was the Messiah?…
