What Does God’s Word Say?
Lindsay Roberts There are so many things in the natural that we could panic over! But the question I ask myself when I’m facing a difficult situation is “What does God’s Word say concerning what I’m anxious about?” For example, what does God’s Word say about healing? In Psalm 107:20 He says, “He sent his […]
Sweet Sleep
Lindsay Roberts Proverbs 3:24 NKJV says, “When you lie down, you will not be afraid; yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet.” Have you ever wondered how birds keep from falling off their perches when they go to sleep? Scientists say that the reason birds don’t fall off their perches when […]
“I Love to Pray!”
From the archives of Oral Roberts First Thessalonians 5:17 says we are to “pray without ceasing.” I once told a friend that I love to pray, and he was amazed. “I never heard anybody say that before,” he said. “I’ve never thought of anyone loving to pray. To me, prayer is something I know I […]
God Wants to Work Through You!
Lindsay Roberts God doesn’t expect you to be anyone but yourself. And if you’re willing to be yourself, He can work through you. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 1:27 that God takes the things the world calls foolish and uses them to confound the wise. If ever there was someone whom God could test […]
I Believe…God Is Present in Time of Trouble
From the archives of Oral Roberts God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1 It’s when you are in trouble that God’s face shines the brightest. That’s when His face emerges above the storm clouds. It’s when you’re in trouble that God appears to you the strongest. That’s when […]
I Believe…God Speaks to Each Person
From the archives of Oral Roberts Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. Revelation 3:20 God’s voice is all around you. His voice is in the Bible…in a sermon…in […]
Let the Weak Say, “I Am Strong”
Richard Roberts The Lord promises again and again in His Word that He will strengthen us. He knows that, as human beings, we often feel our weakness to the point where we don’t believe we CAN be strong. In Joel 3:10 we read, “Let the weak say, I am strong.” Notice that strength is first […]
Togetherness
From the archives of Oral Roberts When God formed man’s body and breathed into it the breath of life, God wanted him to be a complete man. God made man so that he was able to walk and talk with God in togetherness. An example of this type of togetherness is the marriage relationship. Marriage […]
The Facts Aren’t Always the Truth
From the archives of Oral Roberts I have found that worry often comes by looking at circumstances and conditions as they are or seem to be. When viewed in this way, your problems always look bigger than the solution. There used to be a TV show in which a detective, inquiring into a case, would […]
There Is No Substitute for Salvation
Richard Roberts We live in a day of substitutes. CDs have been substituted for vinyl recordings, the internet has been substituted for the encyclopedia, and digital photographs have largely been substituted for prints… and the list goes on and on. But there is no substitute for salvation. I’d like to list several things that should […]
