Why Do We Anoint with Oil?

Anointing the sick with oil has been practiced for millennia. Have you ever wondered why? I did. Turns out it's a very important part of our healing tool kit.

Consult the Author

God intends for you to read His Word. The fact that we have a book written by God to reveal Himself to us is truly marvelous. Even more remarkable is the presence of His Spirit within us, helping us grasp the message. We have a great advantage.

Healing the Weary

Sometimes life is just plain tiring. When sickness is piled on top of that, it's hard to fight the good fight of faith. We all need help occasionally.

Praying Over the Sick

In our modern western church, the practice of praying over the sick in a persistent, corporate manner seems almost lost. When James said "pray over" the sick, I think he had much more in mind that what we see in most church services. God wants us healed. Let's follow His instructions.

Who You Gonna Call?

God wants to heal His people. The only passage on healing addressed specifically to Christians is in the Epistle of James. Let's take a look at the instructions.

Jesus, We Enthrone You

When God's people raise their voices in praise, they provide Him with a throne to rule and reign in their midst. When the Presence sits on the throne of our praise, the enemy flees and stumbles.

He is Here!

Jesus promised that when we gather in unity as His people, He will always show up, and that in those moments, our corporate prayers would have a multiplied impact. When we gather to worship Him, His Presence is in our midst. It’s a fact. He promised.

Inside Information

The Holy Spirit lives inside every believer. If you believe that, then pay attention to what's going on where your spirit interfaces with the Eternal One. You have an advantage!

¡Tenemos una gran ventaja!

Puedes estar seguro de que el Espíritu que está contigo hará exactamente lo que haría Jesús si estuviera físicamente presente. Él quiere que tengas éxito en lo que te ha pedido que hagas. Lo desea más que tú mismo. En cada situación a la que te enfrentes, cuentas con una ventaja enorme.

Jesus Is in the House

I think we sometimes forget who we’re dealing with. We tend to think of Jesus walking the shores of Galilee teaching and healing and interacting as a man. But when we gather on this side of the cross, who is really in our midst?
