Wing and a Prayer

“For in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation” (Galatians 6:15). Salvation into God’s heaven is based totally on a person’s faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Being born again by the Holy Spirit of God and becoming a new creature in...

Jesus said, “I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken” (Matthew 12:36). When I hear someone telling a dirty joke, I always remember what the apostle Paul wrote to the Ephesians, “Do not let any unwholesome...

We’re all guilty of offending other people, and we’ve all been offended by other people; that’s the facts of living in a sinful world. But as Christians we’re told to be forgiving people. It’s impossible to live a victorious Christian life with unforgiveness in our life. It isn’t the offense...

The saying, “I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul” –William Ernest Henley; isn’t a realistic view of our life. There are many things in our life that we have no control over. God sovereignly controls everything in His universe. Nothing happens within God’s...

“And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to know how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of...

“Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever” (2 Peter 3:18). The thread of God’s grace is woven throughout the Old Testament and New Testament. It’s impossible to understand God’s love without understanding that God’s grace...

The Bible tells us of many men and women who thought their own earthly wisdom was better than God’s wisdom. Here are a few examples of how man’s foolish wisdom has caused problems on this earth. “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile” (1 Corinthians...

“What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?” (James 2:14). A true biblical saving faith in Jesus Christ will always be demonstrated by the way we live our life. Jesus told the Pharisees and Sadducees to bring forth fruits...

“But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves” (James 1:22). Surveys among Christians have shown that there is no significant difference between the lifestyle of church going evangelical Christians and people who totally reject Jesus Christ; their morality, social beliefs, and behavior are basically the same! To...

“Do not be deceived, my beloved Brethren” (James 1:16). Some of the worst con artists and deceivers in the world are so-called spiritual leaders. Paul wrote, “For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:13-15). Jesus called Satan a liar and the father of lies (John...
