Proverbs 28:20a says A faithful man will abound with blessings. To those who have faithfully supported and read Morning Messages for almost two years, those words have never been truer. You have not only been a hearer, but you have been a doer. I have personally witnessed the spiritual growth in some of you. Keep it up. The Holy Spirit has shown me that I’m in a place of transitioning. You won’t be receiving daily writings, but periodically He may have me post something. So o

I pray you know that and don’t take it lightly. Some of us are a little too nonchalant about the unsaved in our family. We don’t pray for their salvation as often as we should. The Lord told me years ago when I asked what else I could do to share Him with my family to let them see the importance of giving their lives to Jesus. His answer shocked me. Nothing! Then He quoted Titus 2:11-12. But I’ve never stopped praying for them. I may not have anything new to share, but I can

“Then the apostles gathered to Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught. And He said to them, “Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” For there were many coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat. So they departed to a deserted place in the boat by themselves. But the multitudes saw them departing, and many knew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came togeth

“When the Son of Man appears in His majestic glory, with all His angels by His side, He will take His seat on His throne of splendor, and all the nations will be gathered together before Him. And like a shepherd who separates the sheep from the goats, He will separate all the people. The ‘sheep’ He will put on His right side and the ‘goats’ on His left. Then the King will turn to those on His right and say, ‘You have a special place in My Father’s heart. Come and experience t

“In this all-out match against sin, others have suffered far worse than you, to say nothing of what Jesus went through—all that bloodshed! So don’t feel sorry for yourselves. Or have you forgotten how good parents treat children, and that God regards you as His children? My dear child, don’t shrug off God’s discipline, but don’t be crushed by it either. It’s the child He loves that He disciplines; the child He embraces, He also corrects. God is educating you; that’s why you m

“THE WORD which came to Jeremiah from the Lord: Arise and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause you to hear My words. Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he was working at the wheel. And the vessel that he was making from clay was spoiled in the hand of the potter; so he made it over, reworking it into another vessel as it seemed good to the potter to make it. Then the word of the Lord came to me: O house of Israel, can I not do with you as thi

“And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭2:25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?” And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat it, nor s

“The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).” ‭‭John‬ ‭10:10‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ Are you in need of a spiritual dust up, or a deep cleaning? Feeling a little weighted down by life? They say if you keep your home organized and maintained all you’ll need from time to time is a little light dusting and a few minor repairs. But the opposite is also true. If you don’t do regu

“The one who guards his mouth preserves his life; The one who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭13:3‬ ‭NASB I said, “I will watch my ways and keep my tongue from sin; I will put a muzzle on my mouth while in the presence of the wicked.” (Or unbelievers)emphasis mine ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭39:1‬ ‭NIV‬‬ “The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭18:21‬ ‭NLT‬‬ Dear friends, how much of what we say every day is causing

“Let me tell you why you are here. You’re here to be salt-seasoning that brings out the God-flavors of this earth. If you lose your saltiness, how will people taste godliness? You’ve lost your usefulness and will end up in the garbage. “Here’s another way to put it: You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m goin
