Abraham’s journey of faith had been long, and it was filled with great victories, great revelations, and also great failures, as it is with us all.

July 2025

In this story of Abraham and his petition before the Lord concerning the destruction of Sodom, we see the power of the righteous concerning their petitions before the Lord. Actually, this is a study in intercessory prayer.

June 2025

The path of faith is not an easy path. The Lord gives direction but then Satan does everything he can to hinder and discourage the child of God.

April 2025

The Lord desires to show favor to all who follow Him, and Genesis 8:1-8 shows us the steps that we must take to have God’s favor.

March 2025

Last month, we dealt with progressive revelation as God revealed Himself to Abraham as El Shaddai, meaning “Almighty God.” This month, we want to look at the second part of Genesis 17:1, “walk before me, and be thou perfect.”

February 2025

Abraham was now ninety-nine years of age, and it had been about thirteen years since the Lord had spoken to him. No doubt that during those thirteen years, he thought Ishmael was the promised seed of God as Genesis 17:18 seems to imply.

January 2025

In the twelfth and fifteenth chapters of Genesis, we find what is known as the Abrahamic covenant. This covenant guaranteed the promise of the possession of land as well as the promise of a people to occupy the land, and the promise of blessing, which would be fulfilled in its truest sense in the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.

December 2024

As we study the life of Abraham, we notice that Abraham’s knowledge of God was progressive, meaning that Abraham did not have complete knowledge concerning God and God’s will for his life. Such is our experience with God. 

November 2024

This verse is one of the most important verses in all the Bible. In its simplicity, it is the doctrine of justification by faith. This truth is so great that Paul would center his teaching on the meaning of the new covenant around this one verse (Rom. 4:3).

October 2024

In Genesis 14, we find Abraham going to war against several mighty pagan kings. Though Abraham defeats them, still there was the threat of reprisal that weighed heavy upon his heart. We know this because of what the Lord said to him, which we will discuss shortly.

September 2024

Now we look at Abraham’s restoration. The story of the Bible is the story of restoration and reconciliation—God restoring man, reconciling man back to Himself.

August 2024

As we study the life of Abraham, we study the making of a man of God. This journey of Christian faith is freighted with mountaintop experiences and experiences of walking through the valley of the shadow of death. There are victories, and there are failures, but in spite of everything, we find that the Lord is faithful.

June 2024

Last month we dealt with Abraham and separation—separation as it regards the Lord bringing man out of something in order to bring him into something. This regards God’s will for Abraham’s life.

July 2024

In this study of the life of Abraham, we have looked at Abraham’s separation and Abraham’s surrender. This month we are going to look at the third step of Abraham’s journey, and that is the altar and what it represents.

May 2024

The study of the life of Abraham is actually the study of the doctrine of justification by faith. As well, it is the study of the making of the child of God. Through Abraham’s life, we learn how the Lord desires to work in our lives. In this series of articles highlighting the life of Abraham, I pray that you will learn how the Lord works in our lives and what the Lord desires for His children.

April 2024

This will be my final article in this series of articles concerning the Holy Spirit. In previous articles, I have dealt with who the Holy Spirit is, the purpose of the Holy Spirit, the benefits of speaking in other tongues, the gifts of the Spirit, and the fruit of the Spirit.

March 2024

I Corinthians14 is one of the most misunderstood chapters in the Bible. Those who misunderstand believe that Paul is speaking against tongues when, in fact, he plainly says in verse 18 that he thanks God for tongues, and in verse 39 he states, “Forbid not to speak with tongues.”

February 2024

The true Bible earmarks of a New Testament church are Bible doctrine and the operation of the Holy Spirit in worship and in the gifts of the Spirit operating to bring edification to the corporate body.

The true Bible earmarks of a New Testament church are Bible doctrine and the operation of the Holy Spirit in worship and in the gifts of the Spirit operating to bring edification to the corporate body.

December 2023

In the previous two articles of this series, we looked at the Holy Spirit in the Godhead and the names of the Holy Spirit. Now let’s look at biblical symbols of the Holy Spirit.
