When the wayward son returned home to his father, the ring of authority was placed on his finger. This ring restored the son’s dignity. He once again had the rights as a member of the family. Notice what John 1:12-13 says about our rights as sons: “But as many as received Him, to them He …
Even though we are a new creation, delivered from Satan’s power, we can live according to old habit patterns; dominated by the evil one. This is not necessarily outright rebellion, but rather, a failure to explore the potential that dwells within every true believer. The prodigal father’s response to his son’s reappearance was not the …
Jesus came to earth as a revelation of the heart of God. His teachings, miracles, and healings all revealed an attitude about God that had not been understood before — God wanted to do special things in the lives of people. As Jesus taught, the people were overwhelmed by His message. In Luke 4:22 it …
In John chapter 15 Jesus said, “If you maintain a living communion with me and my words are at home in you, I command you to ask, at once, something for yourself, whatever your heart desires, and it will become yours. In this my Father is glorified, namely, that you are bearing much fruit. So …
What is it about us that would cause God to go to such extreme measures on our behalf? His plan for us from the beginning was to enjoy unending companionship together. And He refuses to be denied the pleasure of seeing His plan come to pass. When He sees us, He sees all we can …

God has always desired a relationship with His people. In fact, He created a beautiful Garden that contained everything mankind would ever need or want throughout their lives. But after Adam disobeyed God, he hid from the presence of God in the Garden. In spite of everything Adam had done, the beautiful sound of the …
As we look to the original purpose that God had for man, we will see a beautiful picture of harmony and tranquility, of people in fellowship with God. And because all of their thoughts were toward God, their every need and desire was supplied. God’s original plan for man is revealed in the Garden of …
When we pray in the Spirit we energize our inner man. Jude put it this way: “But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit” (v. 20). As we act on the Word of God, His nature is built into us. This creates a new habit that does …
Do you wonder why God’s presence isn’t manifested more on the earth? And why we don’t see the outstanding miracles that were present in the life of Jesus?
