When We Doubt the Word of God 11/29 Monday Meditation
In any measure that we doubt the Word of God, from that moment we have ceased to thrive spiritually and actively. The Word of God is not only to be looked at and read, but received as the Word of God to become life right within our life. "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee (Psalms 119:11).

Evil Thoughts 11/22 Monday Meditation
There are evil thoughts and there are thoughts of evil. Evil thoughts are suggestive of the evil one. We are to be able to understand what is the evil and how to deal with it. The Word of God makes us strong. All evil powers are weak. The devil has nothing strong; the weakest believer dethrones him when he mentions Jesus. "Young men, ye are strong because ye know the Word" (See I John 2:14).

God Wants Us to be Powerful 11/19 Friday Faith
The Word of God is eternal and cannot be broken. You cannot improve on the Word of God, for it is life, and it produces life. Listen! God has begotten you to a "lively hope." You are begotten of the Word that created worlds. If you dare to believe, it is powerful. God wants us to be powerful, a people of faith, a purified people, a people who will launch out in God and dare to trust Him in glorious faith which always takes you beyond that which is commonplace to an abiding place in God.

Rise on the Tide 11/18 Thursday Thoughts
Beloved, even with all the faith we have, we are not even so much as touching the hem of God's plan for us. It is like going to the seashore and dipping your toe in the water, with the great vast ocean before you. God wants us to rise on the bosom of the tide, and not keep paddling along the shore. Oh to be connected with that sublime power, that human nature may know God and the glory of the manifestation of Christ!

Living, Active Faith 11/17 Wednesday Wisdom
The Acts of the Apostles were written because the lives of the apostles bore the fruit of active faith. To them faith was an everyday fact. If your life is in the divine order, you will not only have living, active faith but you will always be building up someone else in faith.

Through All Difficulty 11/11 Thursday Thoughts
The Spirit of the Lord is showing me God must get a people who can see that from before the foundation of the world He has had them in His mind. God has been delivering us through all difficulty. Where sin abounded He has brought in His grace, where disease came in to steal our life, God raised up a standard and we are here having come through tribulation. God has been purifying us, strengthening us, equipping us with divine audacity by the power of almightiness -- till we can say, "What shall we say then to these things?"

The Devil Trembles 11/8 Monday Meditation
The one concern of the devil is to keep Christians from praying. He fears nothing from prayerless studies, prayerless work, and prayerless religion. He laughs at our toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray.

A Recent Quote from my Friend 11/4 Thursday Thoughts
"The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place." Psalms 68:17
When we pray, we can open the gates of heaven and close the gates of hell. Prayer is the most powerful weapon a believer can use to overcome any obstacle. And it is by the Holy Spirit that our prayers can open our eyes to the spiritual realm. Never give up on prayer. Who knows, that the battle your going through, someone is praying for you.

A Modern Quote 11/3 Wednesday Wisdom
Tragically, the "woe" is missing from our gatherings; it has been replaced by the "wow" factor in our church services. Leadership teams work hard on wowing and impressing their attendees and for the most part they are. Worshippers are wowed by the messages, the lights, the haze, the production, the entertainment -- but I believe God wants the "woe" back in our meetings. This can take place when we are confronted with His holiness.

The Inner Light Illuminates 11/2 Tuesday Truth
A brother came to see me to ask about the Holy Ghost. He was so anxious that his ministry should be a success. I pointed out to him the words of Jesus to His disciples, "The Holy Ghost is with you and shall be in you." I said to him, "You see the sun this morning -- how it pours into the room from the outside? But if the light was inside, how the light would shine forth outside illuminating the dark places."
