Table for Two

Father, I'm here? Many people wake up in the morning and say a prayer before going to bed but what about the time in-between? Today, the world is filled with so many distractions. You have the virus on one side, murders on the other, and all the other stresses of life in the middle. What shall I eat? What shall I wear? Should I stock up on food? Should I buy gold?  Let me remind you of a few scriptures. Let's begin in Matthew 6:33-34,  But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof." We all can agree that evil is running rampant every day. Every day there is something new. But as a believer, we are told to not focus on the things of the world but on heavenly things. Colossians 3:2 tell us this,  Set your affection on the things above, not on things on the earth." Wh...

Taken from the series entitled, Lunch with Jesus Liza is a non-believer, yet curious. Kate is a Christian to the heart. She loves God with all her mind, heart, body and soul. On this particular day, Liza was reading a magazine and when she turned to the next page, the membership form fell out of it. So Liza reached down to the floor to pick it up. On her way up she glanced at Kate and noticed she was praying. She waited for her to finish, then politely walked over to her and said, "Hi Kate, may I ask you something?" "Sure," she replied. "Why do you pray?" Liza asked. "Prayer is my method of connecting with God. I thank him for continuing to allow me to breathe. I thank him for my family. I thank him for the day. And I thank him for my food. Then a scripture will come to mind, such as today, Psalm 118:24 , "This is the day, the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it." Then I dwell for a moment on that verse and s...

When the hour has come, what will you be doing? If Jesus were to come knocking at your door, what would you be doing? If you take a moment to think about your life, and your walk with Jesus toward eternal salvation, whatever you spend the most of your time partaking in, nine times out of ten, is what you will be doing when Jesus knocks at your door. Whether it is watching television, playing video games, gossiping, lying, partaking in the sins of the world, exploring the Internet, hurting others, swearing, stealing, fighting, displaying acts of hostility or the like, is what you will be found doing at the hour of Jesus. Those are the things that are closest to your heart. Would you drop your head in shame while in Jesus' presence? More than likely the answer to that question is, yes. There are some individuals who have spent, and are spending, the majority of their lives carrying the spirit of envy, greed, pride, rage, confusion, fe...

Get Ready The days are counting down, many prophecies have or are coming to a close and we are now at the point of getting our houses in order and preparing to meet the Lord. As you know, there are plenty of scoffers in our midst as the Bible declared there would be. However, as we hear and witness such scoffers, we can attest to the fact that prophecy is being fulfilled right before our very eyes. II Peter 3:3-4, “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” When we hear words of mockery, it is not a time to get angry, mad or thrown off our mission. That is exactly what the enemy wants us to do. Rather when we hear such doubt and negativity, inwardly we know that our redeemer draweth near and it is time for us to get our house in order. When we say, Get ...
