In Genesis 11 we read about the Tower of Babel and the human attempt to reach to heaven and to make a name for themselves (Genesis 11:3-4). This is when God came and confused their language. From before the foundation of the world God already had a perfect plan, the only way for us to get back in a relationship …
Jesus was teaching something very important to His disciples, apart from Him we cannot do anything, and to be able to bear fruit it will always depend on us being connected to the Vine.“Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you …
I have been thinking a lot about the parable of “the blind men and the elephant.” Each of them was able to touch a different part of the elephant and each had a partial perspective. This parable does not have a clear ending, but it opens the door for each one of us to think about it and make our …
Sometimes we may go through times of trials and challenges, and we think it is all negative and the end of everything. In reality, challenging times are what make us grow and mature. Impasses can be used as steppingstones for us to rise to a higher level. It seems like the whole world is going through a big transition, and …
In our bodies every member has a function, every member is important, every member must function along with the whole Body. When one organ is not functioning properly the whole body suffers. Not only that, not one member or cell can continue to live without its connection, receiving from and giving, to the whole body. In 1 Corinthians 12 Paul …
This message was more like a cry and intercession. We are living days that are overwhelming and confusing, but at the same time amazing things are happening. We must keep our eyes upon the Lord and remember that He is looking for worshipers, those that will put their trust in Him only. For whatever was written in earlier times was …
A lot of times it is easy to think that God wants us to perform some rituals, attend a service, and do things for Him. If we study the Scriptures, we see the tendency that we have to separate our religious lives from the way that we actually live our lives and relate to others. In this message I read …
“But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you” (John 16:7). “I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. “But when He, the …
Sometimes we can make things more complicated and difficult than they really are. We may think that to find God we have to become something special, to better ourselves and try to impress God with what we can do, with the things we accomplish in ourselves, because of our zeal in seeking God. In reality it is easier to think …
A lot of times it is easier for us to be followers than to actually engage in the process of changing, of becoming. The disciples of Jesus Christ left everything to follow Him, but at some point, they had to overcome their own resistance to become the ones that Jesus could send to the world in His place. In other …
The title of this blog may sound strange, and I hope it caught your attention. The main point that I want you to think about is that there is a big difference between what is actually written in the Scriptures and what you have heard. This is nothing new, it is actually one of the main arguments between Jesus and …
We have been having classes about the Hebrew Roots of the New Testament and it is always good to remember that the New Testament did not exist until much later in the history of the church. When we read the New Testament, it should be clear that almost every mention of the Scriptures is actually referring to the Old Testament. …
I have been thinking a lot about the recent changes and challenges we have been living under, and I realized that this is not the first time that mankind and this planet is going through a difficult time. We sometimes tend to focus on a limited amount of time, days, weeks, and maybe months, and then we forget that for …
Have you ever had the thinking: “If that person can’t relate to me the way I am, it is their problem!” That is not the way that God thinks, He found a way to become like we are so that we could relate to Him. He sought us out even before we could relate to Him. “And even if our …
“Thus says the LORD, “Heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool. Where then is a house you could build for Me? And where is a place that I may rest? “For My hand made all these things, Thus all these things came into being,” declares the LORD. “But to this one I will look, To him who …
“So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed” (John 8:36). Sometimes you declare your independence before you have it. You cry for freedom because you don’t heave it. But the day comes where you decide to walk away from the old ways of thinking and from the way that people know your or think about you. …
What we know today as the Old Testament was in reality the only Scriptures that were available at the time when Jesus was teaching His disciples. The Scriptures were not referred to as the Old Testament because the New Testament did not exist. Every reference to the Scriptures that we read about in the New Testament is actually talking about …
Abundance begins when you use what you have – 1 Kings 17:8-12 The widow was living during a time of famine, ready to eat her last meal and die. The prophet spoke to her to find empty vessels. In other words, find the use of your anointing! Use your anointing! Use your gifts! Your anointing and your gifts are not …
