That said, we understand that some of you reading this may have healthy and God-honoring goals for weight loss. If you are currently planning...

Personally, i'm more thankful than ever for the things that I used to take for granted. Health,...

“But be careful. Don’t let your heart be deceived so that you turn away from the Lord and serve and worship other gods.” Deuteronomy 11:16

Sprit of truth, please keep me undeceived. This is something that I pray daily. It’s so easy to fall into deception from the enemy.

Desire and prayer for increased purity in your life greatly blesses the Lord. It’s a prayer that goes wildly after His own heart...

Matthew 17:20 “You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.”
