Any structure that governs the church abandons its mission as soon as it limits its vision. The church is an organism, and for that reason there can be no such thing as “the true church structure.” The church is alive, and that means that it grows, and that means that it changes. The process of change requires that all aspects of the church structure are constantly maintained and attuned to...

The Jordan river is parted only when you walk in one direction. There is no way back. God always supports those who follow His will, and He would never encourage retreat. If you have left Egypt once, you have stepped on the path of faith and patience. This process is irreversible, and its outcome is either the prize of life for the conquerors, or the punishment of death for the unfaithful ones....

Many people put great effort in order to achieve recognition. But one’s zeal must be of the proper origin, in order to be justified before God. Paul tells us that those who do not compete according to the rules, will have no success. What are the rules of the lawful competitors? Each servant of the Gospel must know and understand these rules. “Anyone who competes as an athlete does not...

The spiritual person's age is measured by how it developed as a spirit, which is not vaccinated, except througha continuous dialogue with the Holy Spirit. Under identical circumstances, people behave differently because they come from different spiritual content and education.

Knowledge always attracts people. But, unfortunately, knowledge is sought not for the sake of understanding, but rather for the sake of mystery. One seeks mystical knowledge. Eve knew the truth from God, the commandment of life, but it did not satisfy her. But the serpent have offered her knowledge of a different kind. And this yearning for knowledge led to the subsequent fall. “Then I will...

The spiritual maturity of a person is measured by how developed the qualities of the Spirit appear to be within that person, because such qualities can only be grafted in through continuous communion with the Holy Spirit. In the same circumstances people behave differently, because they are filled, cultivated, and instructed by different spiritual sources.
“For the fruit of the Spirit is in...

Genuine freedom is not a change in circumstance, but a change in perception. God isn’t typically interested in changing our surroundings (our circumstances) but is always interested in making a change within us. The state of fear reveals the amount of faith in a person, because fear and faith are incompatible concepts within God’s Sovereignty.
“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the...

A man’s heart is a habitat that falls under the pressure of various temptations in which our fleshly desires beget all sorts of transgressions. The main characteristic of lust is found in impatience and the instant gratification of passions through their manifestation in words or actions. Thus to remain silent, to bridle your tongue, creates a closed space for the raging lusts, and they burn...

Every one of us perceives the world from our own bell tower. The beginning of all our misunderstandings, disagreements, and differences are derived from that perspective. However, the Lord gave a promise to His servants to warn them and declare the future. The timelessness of the Word of God is that very prophecy, when in the spiritual world, we are allowed to see everything from His perspective.

God spoke and continues to speak, repeatedly and in various ways, to His people. He is simultaneously leading us as a whole society and everyone individually, to designated destinations. In what manner does God speak today? How can we learn to distinguish the voice of God from others, in order to prevent falling into delusion? How to not obstruct Him, but to humble myself and be obedient, so...

“The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.” (Deuteronomy 28:13 NIV) By definition, humanity was created to be the head, not the tail. This literally means to be the giver of direction, to “create the current” – not to...

The ultimate responsibility, of a person in ministry before God, does not consist of the amount of potential and resources they have for the completion of their mission; it consists of how diligent and persistent they are. Everyone will need to give an account, and it won’t be for what they were lacking, but for what they had in their possession. With God’s facilitation of ministry no one is...

The inspiration to work can be the desire to STASH (hoard) merely to possess and control, or the desire to SAVE and PRESEVE in order to GIVE away. A sacrifice inspired by sincere selflessness in the name of God, brings genuine joy! “It is more blessed to give…” (Acts 20:35). “The lust of the eyes… from the world.” That which we call jealousy and envy is now the most powerful drive of...

“The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.” (Genesis 1:12)
A type of fruit completely depends on the type of tree it comes from. Barrenness is always considered a curse. The spiritual fruit in my life directly reflects my condition (my lineage), where I am rooted....
