Pebbles in Your Shoes
Richard & Lindsay Roberts You know… it’s not the mile walk that will kill you ― it’s the pebble in your shoe! As you get more and more rocks in your shoe, you’ll suddenly find you can’t walk. The same thing happens with your life. You have to get the pebbles ― those things that […]
A Second Chance
Richard Roberts I believe in a second chance. I don’t know anyone who has not made mistakes or slipped and fallen in life. I don’t know anyone who has not had to say, “God, I really blew it that time.” Yet there are so many people who think, God, I messed it up, and there […]
Your Faith Is More Powerful Than Your Fear
From the archives of Oral Roberts Jesus has command over all the elements. After He had rebuked the winds and calmed the seas in Mark 4, He turned to His disciples and asked them two questions, “Why were you so afraid?” and “Where is your faith?” (See Mark 4:40 and Luke 8:25.) You see, fear […]
Be Beautiful On the Inside
Lindsay Roberts Be beautiful inside, in your hearts, with the lasting charm of a gentle and quiet spirit which is so precious to God (1 Peter 3:4 TLB). When you have received the inner beauty of the Holy Spirit, and God has become your Source and the One who makes you beautiful, you are beautiful […]
Your Heavenly Account
Richard Roberts In America, the phrase “In God We Trust” appears on our money. I love that! It’s so important for us to put our trust in God as our Source and not in money. I’ve learned to sow my seed to God as an act of my faith because He is my Source. I […]
Giving Is for Life
From the archives of Oral Roberts Jesus told a story about a “certain rich man” who had a field that “brought forth plentifully.” In other words, this man was a very successful farmer. And this rich farmer began to think to himself, “What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my […]
Pray for Our Nation
Richard Roberts If my people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. (II Chronicles 7:14 NKJV) On this day of remembrance, let us join our faith […]
Replace Striving with Giving
Richard Roberts Time and again, Lindsay and I have found that stress, in our lives and in the lives of those who write to us, is linked to a spirit of striving. We are working so hard to do it all that we wear out and become stressed out. The way we have found to […]
An Attitude that Pleases God
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts – Second of two parts The third beatitude that Jesus gave says, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth” (Matthew 5:5 NKJV). Some people may think meekness is weakness, but meekness is strength. To be meek means to submit and relinquish your will―all of it―into God’s […]
A “Be-Attitude”
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts – First of two parts Matthew 5 NKJV is the beginning of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. It is what I knew as a little girl as the Beatitudes. Our attitude is important to God. What we are and how we act matters to Him. The Beatitudes tells us […]
