I wake up every morning wanting more and more of God. I have fallen in love with Him and can’t get enough of Him. I know without question that if I “rightly divide the Word” (2 Timothy 2:15), then I will eliminate all confusion and questions in the Word.

My hope is that by listening to and learning about these divine secrets, your spiritual life will be impacted like mine has been. God bless!

Everybody messes up. In relationships. In business. In life. It's a fact of human nature that we're flawed. People aren't inherently bad, but humans tend to do a lot of bad things. Everyone has engaged in behavior they're not proud of. We all have secrets, and we're all prone to traits and impulses we wish we didn't have. History, literature, and music for centuries have given us examples of falls from grace, tragedies, and fatal flaws.

Every book of the Bible is of major importance. However, there are two books that stand out from the rest. These books are Genesis and Revelation. Genesis is the Bible's introduction, and Revelation is the Bible's conclusion. Genesis tells us how all things began. Revelation tells us how all things will end. The person who does not have an overall grasp of these two books will fall short of understanding the Bible as a whole. Revelation: Putting the Cookies on the Bottom Shelf was written to make the book of Revelation understandable.

God is to be worshipped. I knew that, but I did not know how. I asked the Lord one day how He wanted me to worship Him, and He gave me Worship Songs. Every day, we would meet, and He would give me a song—sometimes two, sometimes more. It was amazing how the Holy Spirit was speaking, and as He was speaking, I was writing His every word. The Lord gave me two hundred songs. Not only did God want me to hear and sing these songs but He wanted His words manifested in my life.

What is happening to our American values and virtues?
