Bring in the Poor: Part 1
There is a tendency in all of us to exalt ourselves — to seek the recognition and attention of other people. As we dig into the context of this command, we’ll see that Jesus cuts right to the heart and exposes this pride in all of us.

A real evidence of faith is persistent prayer. But why do we find it so hard to continue in prayer without giving up?

Be a House of Prayer: Part 2
What is a house of prayer? It is a place of fellowship, communication and intimacy with God. God desired that His physical temple be a place of communion with Himself, a place where He could fellowship with man.
17:22
Be a House of Prayer: Part 1
There are some beautiful parallels between God’s temple in Jerusalem and His temple within the heart and life of every believer. God’s heart for every believer is that they become a temple in which He dwells — where communion between God and man takes place!
