“I will go over and see this strange sight-why the bush does not burn up.” Exodus 3:3.
Have you ever heard someone say: “God doesn’t work that way? He would never do that.”
Moses had never seen a bush that burned but did not burn up. It got his attention and it drew him to God.
When Jesus appeared on the water in the middle of the night during a storm, the disciples exclaimed, “It’s a ghost!” They had never seen a man walk on water.
This led to a great miracle-Peter walked on the water, too. When Jesus asked Peter to catch a fish and get the coin from its mouth to pay their taxes, you can imagine what Peter must have thought about those instructions.

“What I tell you in the darkness, speak ye in the light.” Matt. 10:27.
Our Lord is constantly taking us into the dark, that He may tell us things.
Into the dark of the shadowed home, where bereavement has drawn the blinds;
- into the dark of the lonely, desolate life, where some infirmity closes us in from the light and stir of life;
- into the dark of some crushing sorrow and disappointment. (more…)

Be still and know that I am God….Psalms 46:10
There is a time and place in our walk with God in which He sets us in a place of waiting. It is a place in which all past experiences are of no value. It is a time of such stillness that it can disturb the most faithful if we do not understand that He is the one who has brought us to this place for only a season. It is as if God has placed a wall around us. No new opportunities–simply inactivity. (more…)

“Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives.” 2 Peter 3:11.
In the 1800s, an American tourist stopped by the home of Polish rabbi Chofetz Chaim.
The tourist was surprised to find a simple dwelling place filled only with books, a table, and a bench.
The tourist asked the rabbi, “Where is all your furniture?”
To which the rabbi replied, “Where is yours?”
The puzzled American said, “Mine? But I’m only a visitor here. I’m only passing through.”
To which the wise Chaim replied, “And I am simply a visitor here on this earth. I’m only passing through.”
Scripture talks about heaven in three different ways:
The celestial and magnificent universe. Psalm 19:1.
The great expanse of space surrounding the earth or its atmosphere.Genesis 1:8.
And the sought-after home of God. Hebrews 4:14. (more…)

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-His good, pleasing and perfect will. – Romans 12:2
Paul said that we believer are not same with people in who does not know the Living God is. But you got to notice that we all live in this world where believer and non believer are interact each other. We have our audiences. What audience do you play to? Each day you are seen by many who will make a judgment about the way you handle yourself among different audiences. Politicians have learned to play to their audiences. I believe that America Presidential Candidates are customizing their messages for the needs of USA and particular groups right now. Pastors play to their congregations every week. Workplace believers play to the audiences who will buy their product. (more…)
