"But Peter said, “I don’t have any silver or gold for you. But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!” - Acts 3:6 We don't always have to give money to make an impact on the life of someone in need...Amen!"

"God instructed Elijah to promote Elisha as his successor to the position of prophet… Elijah placed his coat on Elisha as he was plowing the field… Elisha ran after Elijah and Elijah told him to strongly consider what he was asking before accepting it…strongly consider the cost... Our belief, our faith, our lives as we become true disciples of Jesus is an example of that…counting the cost...Amen!"

"Have you repented and accepted the incredible sacrifice of grace and love of God through Yeshua...?If you truly believe in Jesus...are you proclaiming it to everyone in all nations...?Are you a living example of Yeshua...leading your life fruit first or are we lukewarm...? James 4:14 warns us with this..."You do not even know what will happen tomorrow! What is your life? You are a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes..."...Amen!"

"You see God knew each of us from before we were even conceived...and He wants us to exist in Him...Jeremiah 1:4-5 shows us this...“Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you...I appointed you a prophet to the nations...” We are made by God...AND...we are made for God! We are not meant to exist outside of God.....Amen!"

"If we are not willing to deny ourselves, we can't really be Christians. We are either a slave to our flesh our we our a slave to Yeshua. Accepting Jesus will cost us our worldly lives... Colossians 3:3 - "For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God...Amen!"

"What if we said...We must listen to Jesus and His blessed words of truth and live them every single day for the rest of our lives... What if we said...Our desire is that our hearts are close to Jesus and we walk with Him every day for the rest of our lives... What if we said...We must manifest the fruits of the Spirit in every way imaginable...and make certain others see and know that we are His children by those fruits...Amen"

"Matthew 21:8-9 tells us..."A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried saying, Hosanna to the son of David. Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord...” The spreading of the cloaks on the road represents a sign of respect given to a King... The palm branches carry several meanings.... First, the palm branches were a sign of victory/ triumph. In the Ancient Greek Olympics they gave palm branches as symbols of victory with integrity. They were also thrown in front of conquering hero’s. Palm branches also represent joy... So here we go...watch this... the cloaks and the palm branches thrown in front of Yeshua on that Palm Sunday, represent a triumphant conquering warrior king whose victory was won with integrity and joy... Amen"

"For the Son of man is come to seek and to save those that are lost..." - Luke 19:10 Who is the Lost? Who is the first person you think of when you hear that question? - It should always be ourselves...

"My Strength is perfected in weakness...2 Corinthians 12:9" God's awesome strength is seen so perfectly in our own weakness, sinfulness and imperfectness. It is why we can do anything with and through Christ who strengthens us...
