Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?
John 11: 40
God, who parted the Red Sea, rained bread from heaven, caused the walls of Jericho to fall, shut the lions’ mouths, healed the sick, raised the dead and calmed the sea, still performs miracles today.
However, some doubt that God wants to work a miracle for them today. They believe that there were miracles when Jesus walked the... read more >

**Mark 11: 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them and you will have them.**
Jesus and the epistles challenge, encourage and teach us to pray and keep on praying - to ask, seek. knock… prayer is not Important, it’s essential, it’s the oxygen of the air we breathe.

“Change” can be worse than a swear word sometimes in faith communities. People will usually change their cars every so many years, their computers to keep them up to date, change or move the furniture around their home. But for some, when it comes to church certain things have to be done as they have been for years. On the other hand some things are never to change for example, the word of God and all His teachings do not change as Jesus is... read more >

Present research has exposed an alarming fact, that the 21 st century church is not delivering sound Bible based disciples for the next generation. The reason is due to unwarranted exposure to ungodly influences on the one hand, and an over-dependency upon church programs that do not deliver kingdom-focused faith in the next generation.
I believe that it is time for every one of us to ask ourselves this question: “Am I inspiring our younger... read more >

Fathers all over Australia will be celebrated this Sunday September 3rd - Its Father’s Day! The first job God gave Adam was “Fatherhood”. It takes a real man to be a real father. God commanded Adam and Eve in **Genesis 1:28** to **“be fruitful and multiply”.** This meant that they would build a devoted and loving family together. Most men want to be good fathers, but many don’t have a clue what a godly father looks like.
The only place to... read more >

really think about God, His Word, His Church, or their own testimony every day.
Can you truly say with confidence that you are living each day as one of God’s... read more >
