Give Me Courage, Lord
I believe that one of Satan’s greatest weapons against us is his lies and deceptions. Through the use of lies and deceptions, his objective is to get us to be afraid and to doubt God.

The LORD came and stood there, calling as at the other times, “Samuel! Samuel!” Then Samuel said, “Speak, for your servant is listening.” And the … Continue reading Speak, Lord
We Will Sing!
I think that when things are going well in our lives that it is easy to sing praises to God and to thank him for all his many blessings to us. Yet, when life kicks us and knocks us down; when severe trials come our way; when we are faced with great persecution and rejection … Continue reading We Will Sing!
Jesus, My Savior
"So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me his prisoner.
