You Can Be Happy
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts As Christians, each one of us has a unique calling from God on our lives. Yours is different from mine, and mine is different from yours. Your calling is the one God has for you, and it’s what you’re supposed to do in life. His plan may be different […]
Faith Is Not Blind
From the archives of Oral Roberts Have you ever heard someone talk about “blind faith”? Well, faith is not blind. It is a knowing. Faith is when the Holy Spirit supernaturally empties your heart of doubt and brings you into a state of knowing so that you can “know that you know that you know.” […]
Plug Into the Source
Lindsay Roberts I may not be the world’s smartest person when it comes to machines and electricity, but if something isn’t working, the first thing I do is see if the cord is plugged into the electrical power! I may have the most beautiful lamp in the world, but if I don’t plug it into […]

Overcoming the Adversary of Temptations
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts – Second of four parts Temptations aren’t always temptations to do something bad. Sometimes they are temptations to choose a path that is second-best.
