My prayer is that we will be one in Spirit and in Truth. To facilitate this, we must not lean unto our own understanding but rather allow the Lord to establish His standards in our hearts. We have been called to new birth, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of... Continue Reading →
Only God Can Make Friends
I am so thankful for the counsel of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes it is hard to make sense of your experiences, however if you are really open to truth, then the light of the Lord can eliminate the gray by dividing the light from the darkness to help you discern what is really going on....

The Record of GOD Endures for All Generations
There are many fishers of men but there are few that gather with Christ. When recruiting disciples, Christ told men that if they would follow Him, then He would make them fishers of men. Our focus should not be on the fishing but the following of Christ. He has already said if He is lifted... Continue Reading →
The Path to Unity is the Way of the Spirit
GOD has a purpose for everything, but for them to be fulfilled they have to be sanctified by the rule of the Spirit. For instance, GOD formed Eve and her daughters in such a way that they would be the perfect match for Adam and his sons. Into the design of both the male and... Continue Reading →

Beware of Private Interpretations that Hide Truth
Your relationship with GOD is personal in that no one else can believe for you or worship for you. Each of those requires a personal knowing of GOD from our own heart. However, getting to that place and remaining in that place, by GOD’s design, involves the whole body of Christ. Understand, for the maturing... Continue Reading →

First, let me say that I realize we are men first created in GOD’s image, and then we have our tribal and national ethnicities. To be more correct, we are men that are Black and not Black men, if you can hear me. I also realize that “Black” is just a man contrived social designation... Continue Reading →
Seek life in the bigger picture
The narrow path of salvation is right before us, but we can miss it if our hearts are set on finding some broader way. Just because the path is narrow doesn’t mean the journey on it isn’t filled with abundance. The true and living GOD is not limited by time or space. If our hearts... Continue Reading →
