I Am Returning to My House – Bill Yount
Hebrews 3:6 But Christ as a Son over His own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.
“Tell Me Something…What Made Me Come Through Those Doors?”
Recently, I was ministering in a church in Pennsylvania. The week before this meeting, the congregation had gone into the community, praying over it and talking to people. During the worship I saw the presence of the Lord being established as a zone going …

Communion with God will transform your life beyond recognition
This article by Wade Taylor started me on the path of regularly taking communion. When I make communion an integral part of my life it is very noticable. It is easier to stay focused on the Lord and His ways and my body benefits greatly.

The Lasting Value of Communion
As the “facets” in a diamond are viewed, some appear as being …

The Pursuit Of God – AW Tozer – Chapter 10 – The Sacrament of Living
Whether you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. I Cor. 10:31
One of the greatest hindrances to internal peace which the Christian encounters is the common habit of dividing our lives into two areas, the sacred and the secular.
As these areas are conceived to exist apart from each other and to be morally and spiritually incompatible, and as we are compelled by the necessities of living to be always …

The Pursuit Of God – AW Tozer – Chapter 9 – Meekness and Rest
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Matt. 5:5
A fairly accurate description of the human race might be furnished one unacquainted with it by taking the Beatitudes, turning them wrong side out and saying, “Here is your human race.” For the exact opposite of the virtues in the Beatitudes are the very qualities which distinguish human life and conduct.
In the world of men we find nothing approaching the virtues of which Jesus spoke in …

The Pursuit Of God – AW Tozer – Chapter 7 – The Gaze of the Soul
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. Heb. 12:2
Let us think of our intelligent plain man mentioned in chapter six coming for the first time to the reading of the Scriptures. He approaches the Bible without any previous knowledge of what it contains. He is wholly without prejudice; he has nothing to prove and nothing to defend.
Such a man will not have read long until his mind begins to observe certain truths …

The Pursuit Of God – AW Tozer – Chapter 6 – The Speaking Voice
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1
An intelligent plain man, untaught in the truths of Christianity, coming upon this text, would likely conclude that John meant to teach that it is the nature of God to speak, to communicate His thoughts to others. And he would be right.
A word is a medium by which thoughts are expressed, and the application of term to the Eternal …

The Pursuit of God – AW Tozer – Chapter 5 – The Universal Presence
Where shall I go from thy spirit? or where shall I flee from thy presence? Psalm 139:7
In all Christian teaching certain basic truths are found, hidden at times, and rather assumed than asserted, but necessary to all truth as the primary colors are found in and necessary to the finished painting. Such a truth is the divine immanence.
God dwells in His creation and is everywhere indivisibly present in all His works. This is boldly taught by prophet …

The Pursuit Of God – AW Tozer – Chapter 4 – Apprehending God
O taste and see. Psa. 34:8
It was Canon Holmes, of India, who more than twenty-five years ago called attention to the inferential character of the average man’s faith in God. To most people God is an inference, not a reality. He is a deduction from evidence which they consider adequate; but He remains personally unknown to the individual. “He must be,” they say, “therefore we believe He is.”
Others do not go even so far as this; they know …
