You Are in God’s “Now”
From the archives of Oral Roberts – First of three parts The Lord recently gave me what I believe was a spiritual dream. These kinds of dreams happen to me from time to time. On this particular night, I do recall that I went to sleep with this Scripture on my mind: “Jesus Christ the […]
Look for God’s New Thing
Richard Roberts When we turn our hearts and minds from our past, we stand in a position for God to begin to do something new in our lives. As long as we are living in the past, He can’t prepare us for the future!Consider what the prophet Isaiah said: “Remember ye not the former things […]
“Now …”
From the archives of Oral Roberts – Second of three parts Throughout the Bible, we read about “now” moments as God has moved through men and women to change the course of history. In Numbers 12:13 … we hear Moses crying to the Lord, “Heal her now, O God, I beseech thee.” Moses is asking […]
A Way and a River
Richard and Lindsay Roberts The prophet Isaiah gave two examples in describing the “new thing” that God desires to do in our lives: “I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert” (Isaiah 43:19). It is almost impossible to chart a course through the wilderness areas of the Bible lands. […]
The Seed Eater Rebuked
Lindsay Roberts One time, while Richard and I were doing a television program, a call came in to the Abundant Life Prayer Group and a woman shared a testimony that, to me, is a perfect example of God rebuking the devourer―or, the seed eater―in our lives. Actually, the story began when this woman called the […]
The Uncontainable Blessing
From the archives of Oral Roberts – First of two parts God gave a promise to His people in Malachi 3:10–11 that is a promise for you and me today. The Bible teaches that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He doesn’t change. His promises are true and will always be true. Today, […]
The Rest of the Scripture
Lindsay Roberts Have you ever been reading God’s Word and stopped when it got to a part of the Scripture you didn’t want to deal with? Mark 11:23–25 NIV is a Scripture like that. It excites us… at least the first part. Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, if someone says to this mountain, […]
Pearls of Wisdom
Richard Roberts Pearls of wisdom often come from children. A couple and their 9-year-old daughter were riding in their car, and the husband was sharing with his wife the news of a big sale he was about to wrap up at work. “That will give us enough money to buy a new car,” he said. […]
Feeding Your Soul
Lindsay Roberts Did you eat breakfast this morning? Supposedly, it’s the most important meal of the day. And if you ate breakfast, did you eat a healthy breakfast? Many times we tend to eat whatever is available or easy to fix rather than what is actually best for us. I believe it’s so important to […]
The Word of God
From the archives of Oral Roberts The Bible is not a scattered bunch of sayings, written at random by both somebodies and nobodies. It is the most carefully documented book of all. Second Timothy 3:16 NIV tells us: All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness. God inspired […]
