THE PRAYER OF UNBELIEF
      You’ve heard of the prayer of faith. I believe there is a mirror image of this prayer, a prayer that is based on flesh. I call it the prayer of unbelief. I want to pose a question to you. Have you ever heard the Lord tell you, “Quit praying—get up off ... read more

THE PRESENT GENERATION KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT ENDURANCE
       To endure means “to carry through despite hardships; to suffer patiently without giving up.” In short, it means to hold on or hold out. But this word means little to the present generation. Many Christians today are quitters—they quit on their spouses, ... read more

THE PREVENTING LOVE OF THE LORD
      Thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head” (Psalm 21:3). At first glance, this verse by David is a bit puzzling. The word “prevent” is usually associated with hindrance, not with blessing. A modern t ... read more

The Price of Spiritual Authority
      Becoming the kind of servant who walks in God’s authority requires us to stand face to face with our conscience in the sight of our Father. When we stand before the Lord, we are driven to our knees in humility before his holy presence. The apostle Pa ... read more

The Prize is Worth it All
      “Let us run with patience the race that is set before us” (Hebrews 12:1, KJV). The very word race suggests competition. God’s people are likened to runners in a long distance race, competing for a prize — the prize being a glorious revelation of t ... read more

The Problem of Our Own Hearts
      “Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life” (Proverbs 4:23). We may hear teaching about the need to pray, fast and study the Scriptures. And we may plead with God for a deeper hunger for him, a closer walk with him ... read more

The Problem with Someday
      One of the most tragic words in any language is someday. It sums up the unfulfilled hopes and dreams of this entire generation. So many are bound, lonely, heartbroken, disillusioned, rejected, waiting for a miracle to happen. But nothing is going to happe ... read more

THE PRODIGAL AND HIS FATHER
       I believe the prodigal son (see Luke 15) came home because of his history with his father. This young man knew his father’s character, and apparently he had received great love from him. Otherwise, why would he return to a man who would have been angry ... read more

The Promise of Jesus’ Return
      In days past, “Jesus is coming!” was declared during almost every Sunday church meeting. Evangelists brought stirring messages about the hope of Christ’s return and there was a godly fear and expectancy in the hearts of his followers. Today, however ... read more

The Promise of Power in Christ
      As Jesus spent his last hours with his disciples, he said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you” (John 16:23). Then he told them further, “Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, an ... read more

THE PROMISED LAND
       I believe that Psalm 46 is a picture of the New Testament “promised land.” Indeed, Psalm 46 represents the divine rest referred to in Hebrews: “There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God” (Hebrews 4:9). This Psalm describes this rest to God’s ... read more

THE PURPOSE OF INTIMACY WITH JESUS
      The purpose of intimacy with Jesus is to have a revelation of the Father. If your eyes are not opened to the Father, you have not entered into the fullness of intimacy with Christ. Jesus told the disciples, "You need a revelation of who your Father is ... read more

THE REASON FOR TEMPTATION
       Temptation is an invitation or an enticement to commit an immoral act. Right now Satan is raging over the earth as a roaring lion trying to devour Christians through powerful enticements toward immorality. No one is immune and the closer you get to God, ... read more

THE REVELATION OF GOD’S LOVE
       I was stirred recently by the Holy Spirit and he led me to this passage: “Ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto ete ... read more

The Revival
      I have been receiving a number of letters asking my opinion about certain "revivals" in Canada and the USA. I have been told, "Brother Dave, your name is frequently used in the ------- revival. Times Square Church is named often. Does this mean you app ... read more

The Reward Is Worth the Difficulties
      There is a cost to being completely sold out to God but there is also a great reward. When you are lukewarm, having a form of godliness without power — not overly sinful nor overly holy — you are accepted and your life is relatively quiet. You are no ... read more

The Reward of Perseverance
      Any discussion on sufferings and trials must begin with the most despairing believer of all time — a righteous, faithful, God-fearing servant, devoted to prayer and worship. Yet, when sorrow and trouble overwhelmed his life, this same man began to make ... read more

THE ROOT OF FEAR
      “If iniquity were in your hand, and you put it far away, And would not let wickedness dwell in your tents; Then surely you could lift up your face without spot; Yes, you could be steadfast, and not fear” (Job 11:14-15). All fear can be traced To a ... read more

THE SACRIFICE OF THANKSGIVING
      One of the most important verses in all of Scripture is found in Peter’s first epistle. The apostle speaks of the necessity of having our faith tested: “That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried ... read more

The Same Glory
       “He that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him” (John 14:21). “That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us…and the glory which thou gavest me ... read more

The Samuel Company
      Where are the Samuels who have heard the voice of God, who have been awakened by the Holy Spirit and have received a revelation of soon-coming judgments upon a backslidden Church? Why aren't all preachers of the Gospel grieving over the sinful condition o ... read more

THE SECRET CLOSET
       “Thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut the door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly” (Matthew 6:6). In the past I’ve taught that because of the demand ... read more

THE SECRET OF GOD’S PRESENCE
      In Psalm 31, David introduces us to the phrase “the secret of thy presence.” He writes, “Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! Thou shalt ... read more

THE SECRET OF SPIRITUAL STRENGTH
       “For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength” (Isaiah 30:15). Here is God’s secret to spiritual strength: “Quietness and confidence shall be your ... read more

THE SECRET OF STRENGTH
      Yet the righteous will hold to his way, And he who has clean hands will be stronger and stronger” (Job 17:9). Men are losing their grip on life, Mockers abound— Provocation on all sides. Wise men can’t be found. When beds are made in darkness Co ... read more

THE SECRETS OF THE LORD
      Matthew tells us Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables: “All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in ... read more

THE SIN THAT MAKES GOD CRY
      Let me give it to you straight—no beating around the bush and no soft-pedaling. The sin that makes God cry is being committed daily, not by pagan workers of iniquity but by multitudes of Christians—the sin of doubting God's love for His children. ... read more

The Sorrow of a Heart that Wavers
      You may have had a situation you were praying about but you didn’t seem to get an answer. You may say, “I prayed in faith, believing God, but he didn’t hear me. I waited and waited, but he never answered. How can I surrender my life to God if he doe ... read more

The Spirit of Discouragement
      When King David was in a time of discouragement and struggle, he cried out: “I am troubled, I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long … I am feeble and severely broken; I groan because of the turmoil of my heart … My heart pants, my st ... read more

THE SPOILS OF SPIRITUAL WARFARE
       “Out of the spoils won in battles did they dedicate to maintain the house of the Lord” (1 Chronicles 26:27). This verse opens to us a profound, life-changing truth. It speaks of spoils that can only be won in battle. And once these spoils are won, they ... read more

THE SURRENDERED LIFE
      “Surrender.” What does this word tell you? In literal terms, surrender means “to give up something to another person.” It also means to relinquish something granted to you. This could include your possessions, power, goals, even your life. Christians ... read more

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
       Most of America knows that the Supreme Court of the United States has ruled the Ten Commandments cannot be displayed in any government courthouse. This landmark decision has been covered exhaustively by the media. But what does the ruling mean? A cou ... read more

The Tender Love of the Father
      It is difficult for many people to think of God as a loving Father. They can't help but see God through the eyes of past experiences with an ungodly father or stepfather. It's all so sad. But listen to how God described himself to Moses: "The Lord God, me ... read more

THE TRUE MEANING OF THE PROMISED LAND
       God gave our forefather Abraham the land of Canaan “for an everlasting possession” (Genesis 17:8). In Hebrew, the word everlasting means never-ending. You might think, “Abraham had to rejoice over this. God promised his descendants a permanent homeland, ... read more

The Ultimate Test Of Faith
       There comes a time in the life of every believer—as well as in the church—when God puts us to the ultimate test of faith. It’s the same test Israel faced on the wilderness side of the Jordan. What is this test? It is to look at all the dangers ahead— ... read more

The Unchanging Love of God
      Communion with God consists of two things: receiving the love of the Father and loving him in return. You might spend hours each day in prayer, telling the Lord how much you love him, but it isn’t communion unless you receive his love in return. The ... read more

THE UNREASONABLENESS OF FAITH
      When God says to humankind, “Believe,” he demands something that’s wholly beyond reason. Faith is totally illogical. Its very definition has to do with something unreasonable. Think about it: Hebrews says faith is the substance of something hoped for, evi ... read more

THE UNRELENTING LOVE OF GOD
       I want to talk with you about the word unrelenting. It means undiminished in intensity or effort—unyielding, uncompromising, incapable of being changed or persuaded by arguments. To be unrelenting is to stick to a determined course. What a marvelous ... read more

The Unseen Work Within the Heart
      There seems to be a counterfeit for just about everything today. It used to be that as you walked down the streets of New York City, you encountered street vendors hawking “authentic” Rolex watches, designer purses, jewelry and other desirable wares. ... read more

The Unspoken Cries of a Broken Heart
      Psalm 56 is meant for those who have been wounded — whether by family, friends, or the words and actions of the ungodly. It is a word for those who love the Lord yet who shed tears and carry burdens that seem to grow heavier by the day. Some believer ... read more

The Very Peace of Christ
      “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you” (John 14:27). This marvelous word from Jesus had to amaze the disciples. In their eyes, it was an almost unbelievable promise: Christ’s peace was to become their peace. These twelve men had marveled a ... read more

The War Above All Wars
      “War broke out in heaven” (Revelation 12:7). We hear a lot of talk today about war — war on terrorism, war in the Middle East, nuclear threats from various nations. Never in history has there been such a time of war throughout the earth. And beca ... read more

THE WITNESS OF THE SPIRIT!
      “And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth” (1John 5:6). There are times when the Holy Ghost’s inner witness will not allow me to keep quiet. The Spirit rises within me and I have to speak up. The Holy Spirit abides in u ... read more

The Wonderful Riches of God’s Grace
      Scripture says, “But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption” (1 Corinthians 1:30). Don’t be put off by all the terms in this verse. Simply put, the goal of the gospel i ... read more

THE “FULLY PREACHED” GOSPEL
      The apostle Paul said to his generation: “I have fully preached the gospel of Christ” (Romans 15:19). And he described the “fully preached” gospel as one that is much more than words. It is a gospel of words and deeds! “For I will not dare to speak of any ... read more

There is Healing in Your Tears
      Are you in a frightening place right now? Do you feel hopeless, empty, stripped to nothing? I say to you, your trial will pass but what does God expect of you now, in the midst of it? Perhaps you are grieving, anguishing over a struggle that doesn’t ... read more

Therefore, Be Serious
      You may not want to think about it or even accept it, but if you have determined to follow Jesus with all your heart, Satan has marked you for destruction. And he’s going to flood your life with troubles of all kinds. The apostle Peter warns, “The ... read more

THESE MEN HAVE BEEN WITH JESUS
      In Acts 3, we find Peter and John going to the temple to worship. Just outside the temple gate sat a beggar who had been crippled from birth. This man had never walked a step in his life. When he saw Peter and John, he asked them for alms. Peter answered ... read more

These Men Have Been With Jesus (transcript)
      My message this morning, "These Men Have Been With Jesus." Go to Acts, the 4th chapter. Please again remember Pastor Carter and his wife as they're on vacation resting in Canada. Pray that The Lord refresh them and give them renewed health and stren ... read more

THEY BECAME FEARLESS
      When the Spirit fell upon His disciples, they became fearless. As they went forth to the temple to witness, the Holy Ghost made their words cutting, convicting — as swords piercing the heart. They preached the gospel with power and authority because the ... read more
