Ready for Real Freedom? Find Out How God’s Word Can Transform Your Life!


 True Freedom 

Jesus said in John 8:32 NLT — And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. This is an incredible promise, especially if you need healing —whether the difficulty is an injury, illness, a financial hardship, a troubled relationship, or anything else.

Belief vs truth:

Harper’s Bible Dictionary includes the statement when defining truth, “God is truth.” So many believe things that are not true. Truth is something that has to be known, not just believed. I can believe a lot of things that are not true. When I was a kid, it was believed that if you ate something, you had to wait around 15 to 30 minutes before getting back into the water because if you got in sooner, you could cramp up and drown. But now we know that is not true. It was believed, but not true.

His word is truth:

So, knowing the truth is, to some degree, knowing God! We need to pray and read the Word daily so we can know the truth. True things can be proved. So we know that God is a healer. He heals, so we claim that promise. The way the truth sets us free from the bondage of sin is by our getting to know God better. How do we do that? By learning His word. That’s how we will know the truth.

So, let’s get into God’s word more, so we can really know the Truth.


Never apologize for the Word of God. 📖 Refuse to apologize for what God said! God is still on His throne. We must learn to live out our faith in these challenging times, facing peer pressure, ridicule, and moral dilemmas with confidence, knowing Jesus is with us. To stand firm, we must be deeply rooted in God’s Word. Living out our faith isn't always easy, but it is possible with God’s help!

Just a thought,

Meet the Man Behind the Monsters: The Untold Story of Haruo Nakajima, Godzilla’s Unsung Hero!

Image
Written By Ken Hulsey Monster movie fans often have fond memories of 200-foot-tall creatures like Godzilla, King Kong, Rodan, Mothra, and Varan stomping on buildings as terrified townspeople flee in terror. However, the unsung hero who brought these iconic monsters to life has rarely received credit - Haruo Nakajima, a Japanese actor who donned the heavy rubber costumes from 1954 to 1972 to portray Toho's most famous movie monsters.

Beyond Your Wildest Dreams: Embracing the Extraordinary Plans God Has for You

Image
From A Sermon by James W Greer Time to Dream | Why Don’t You Dream?   (Romans 8:31, NKJV; Romans 8:37, NKJV; Jeremiah 1:7-8, TEV) Your dreams may be troubled, but God’s dreams for you are paramount, and they are good (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV). God’s dreams for your life are far greater than your own. They are not just bigger; they are exceedingly, abundantly more than you can think, dream, or even imagine (Ephesians 3:20, NKJV). God is going before you, arranging all the necessary circumstances for your dreams to come to fruition (Isaiah 45:2-3, TEV). When God gives you a dream, He takes responsibility for opening the right doors and creating the right circumstances (Revelation 3:8, NKJV). All you need to do is your part and then allow God to do His (Hebrews 4:3, NKJV; Hebrews 6:17, NCV).

A Pivotal Day in 1776: George Washington and John Adams Confront Challenges of a New Nation

Image
On this day in 1776, the nascent United States was at a critical juncture, marked by urgent military concerns and intense political pressures. George Washington found himself amid two pressing emergencies that would shape the course of the American Revolution. In New York, the threat of British forces loomed large, and Washington was determined to bolster his ranks. Recognizing the need for adequate weaponry, he penned a letter to Major General Artemas Ward in Boston, urgently requesting the transport of 200 carbines, in addition to the 300 he had already ordered. This call for reinforcements underscored not just Washington's commitment to the fight for independence, but also the precarious situation faced by Continental forces as they prepared for a potential confrontation.

Change is Inevitable! Here’s How to Embrace It and Rediscover Your Joy Today! | Random Ramblings

Image
  By Tina Martin So this morning I heard…. “You can’t hold on to faith and fear at the same time.” Then I heard a story about stress and depression, and anxiety being rooted in the fear of what we can’t control. This afternoon, I listened to a man talk about how the most powerful thing he learned from the story of Noah and the Ark was the fact that the Ark didn’t have a steering wheel of any kind... I do believe somebody is trying to tell me something!!! Trust. The Journey.

Remembering the Magic of M.E. Moses: A Journey Back to the Heart of Main Street, Vernon

Image
One of my favorite stores from the past was the M.E. Moses Five and Dime Store on Main Street in Vernon, Texas . For those of you who are too young to remember, a "Five and Dime" store was an old-fashioned discount store where most items cost around five or ten cents. Of course, you would have to travel way back in time to find those kinds of bargains—much further back than my memories from the mid-1970s. Back then, the only thing you could buy for a dime was a piece of hard candy. A comic book cost thirty cents, and a gallon of gas was sixty cents. To put this into perspective, today a comic book is about four dollars, and depending on where you are in the country, gasoline can range from two to four dollars a gallon.

Think America Isn't Great? From Fast Food to Friendly Faces: Discover Why We Should Appreciate America More!

Image
Written By Ken Hulsey As our country's 250th birthday approaches, I thought that it would be interesting to put a few things into perspective. First, being old enough to have experienced our great nation's 200th birthday celebration back in 1976, I am somewhat surprised at small number of celebrations across the country. Back in 76, there was a certain sense of excitement about our nations bicentenial. Patriotic themed events and imagery were everywhere. There was a train containing our national treasures, like the Declaration of Independence and the Liberty Bell, touring the country so that every American would have a chance to see them. There was a fleet of tall (sailed) ships touring port cities. Overall, there was a sense of national pride that permeated everything. It was a truly magical time for our country.
