By Karen McBride Preventative medicine is the first step in maintaining your good health. Eating healthy meals with fresh fruits and vegetables is essential. Daily exercise and fresh air are equally important. Washing your hands frequently and using sanitary wipes on shopping carts can help reduce the spread of germs. And never underestimate the power of a good night’s sleep! What else can you do? Consult with your doctor about getting the proper vaccinations for illnesses such as the flu and whooping cough. Is it too late to get a flu shot? The Center for Disease Control (“CDC”) recommends that … Continue reading Preventative Medicine is the Key to Maintaining Good Health

By David Wilkerson In these last days, the Lord’s eye is not fixed on world powers but on the church of Jesus Christ. God is not focused on the economy, on the rise of world religions, on the roaring of the heathen. According to Isaiah, the nations are to God “as a drop of a bucket” (Isaiah 40:15). They are all under His sovereign rule and reign. God knows all about terrorist threats, wars and rumors of wars. His Word warns that the heathen will rage, secular powers will try to outlaw Christianity, and fast-growing, anti-Christ movements will boast they’ll … Continue reading Under God’s Control

David wrote in Psalm 27:4, “One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life.” When David expressed the desire to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of his life, he didn’t mean that he wanted to live in a church all the time. What he really wanted was to sense God’s presence in his life all the time. His one thing was his relationship with God. Paul wrote in Philippians 3:8, “…everything else is worthless when … Continue reading One Thing for 2020
