Get Close To the King
Richard Roberts Have you ever read the story of Esther in the Bible and wondered what it means to you and me today? If you recall the Book of Esther, she was a young Jewish woman who was chosen by the king of Persia to be his queen. When a man named Haman hatched a […]
You Don’t Have To Beg God for What Is Yours!
Lindsay Roberts There are certain things you don’t need to beg God to do because He’s already done them. Instead, you can address Satan about them, and command him to take his hands off of what concerns you. As an example, if I gave you a piece of gum, you wouldn’t turn around and start […]
See Yourself As God Sees You
From the archives of Oral Roberts I once received a letter from a young girl who was struggling with feelings of self-worth. She said, “Brother Roberts, I hate myself, and I feel that other people hate me too. I wish I could do something to change my negative self-image, but I honestly don’t believe I […]
“I Don’t Like to Stir!”
Lindsay Roberts Whenever I cook with someone else, it seems as though the other person always reads the recipe and I have to stir. I don’t like to stir! The other day a friend and I made chocolate chip cookies, and there I was again, stirring. I don’t like it because the batter gets stiffer […]
A Prayer of Salvation
Richard Roberts I feel the greatest miracle of all is the salvation of a person’s soul. Maybe you’ve never prayed a prayer of repentance… a prayer of salvation before. If you would like to give your heart to the Lord Jesus Christ, join me in this prayer of salvation: “O God, be merciful to me, […]
“I Broke My Own Rule”
Lindsay Roberts I have a rule in my car that whatever you drink has to have a lid on it. But one day I broke my own rule. I had a soda with no lid in the car. I turned the corner and spilled it on me, the seat, the carpet…everywhere! Everything was a big […]
Watch Your Tongue
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts – Part Two of Two Parts I doubt that any of us have ever picked up a sword and literally cut off somebody’s ear. But have you ever done it with your tongue? Our tongue can do two things: It can either lift people up, or it can put […]
“Put Up Your Sword!”
From the archives of Evelyn Roberts – Part One of Two Parts Sometimes we can get ahead of God and His will for our lives. And don’t we usually get into trouble when we do? That’s what happened to Simon Peter. Matthew 26 NKJV says that Jesus took His disciples to the Garden of Gethsemane […]
True and Lasting Freedom
Richard Roberts On July 4th of each year in the United States, we celebrate our independence as a nation. It is always a time to remind ourselves afresh and anew of the price of freedom and what it means to be free. The Bible has this to say about freedom: “If the Son therefore shall […]
Declare That You’re Blessed!
Lindsay Roberts A woman once told me that one of the reasons I was having so many troubles at the time was because I was allowing it. Now I can tell you, I didn’t appreciate her telling me that! She said, “Have you ever declared who you are in Christ Jesus?” And I answered, “Oh, […]
