Marriage is Like a Bank: Top 10 Deposits to Make Today

We’ve all heard that success is a journey, not a destination. I say that marriage is a journey, not a destination. In other words you have to constantly work at building a successful relationship; it doesn’t just happen. We know that the cares of this world: career, children, household chores, other family members, and more take up so much of our time that by the end of the day, we have nothing left to give to our spouses. In turn, our marriages are missing the very core of what it should have: love.
The Reality of Our Enemy
The Reality of Our Enemy
by Eric Lambert
Satan wants you to doubt God. If the devil is successful in getting you to think contrary to what the scriptures say about you, then the battle is already half won. No one can convince you that you are what they say you are. You must first believe that you are what they say before they say it to you. You have already engaged in a battle with the words that they bring to you in your mind. If you believe the lie that is hatched in your mind, then you will believe the lie the person speaks to you.
The Real Battle
The Real Battle
by Pastor Eric Lambert
I feel a burden to share this with you, particularly because we are moving into the day of the supernatural and unfortunately, you and I have not been taught how to negotiate these waters of spiritual reality. Consequently, we vacillate between the land of reality (the spirit) and the land of the visible (the physical). We don’t know how to maintain spiritual stability in the spirit realm. It is from the realm of the spirit that everything originates.
Everything that occurs happens in the spirit first and then is manifested in the natural or visible realm. In fact Paul says we should not even look at the things that are visible but the things that are not seen (2 Corinthians 4:18). Why? It is the spiritual things which empower what we see.
My Father’s Eyes
THE JOURNEY
My Father’s Eyes
by Becky DeWitt
At the moment of your birth, several comments were made as to who you may have appeared to look like in your physical features. Time brought on many changes in your appearance, as you developed to favor someone else in the family. I have always been told my entire life that I looked just like one of my father’s sisters. Early in my life, many times I was mistakenly identified as her daughter. But at a recent family reunion, I heard something that I have never heard before. Someone was looking at the family pictures on the wall and said to me, “you have your father’s eyes”.
How to Become a True Christian and a Distinguished Gentleman
How to Become a True Christian and a Distinguished Gentleman by Alvin C. Romer
I was asked recently a series of questions in reference to Christian behavior and how men should carry themselves as such. During the course of eliciting a favorable and balanced answer it dawned on me that the validity of the questions caused for a more in-depth response. As I looked around taking inventory of behavior patterns in men, I found that few gave a true indication of not only being gentlemen, but Christian value either was lacking or non-existent. To be sure, Christians are expected to behave in certain ways, but does behaving in those certain ways make one a Christian? More important, if a person fails to live up to those certain behaviors, what formulaic mannerisms should they be abiding? Or, is the assessment "lesser" have any bearing on how one should live on a whole?
