Relationships can make you or break you; it's not new. It happened throughout the bible. God takes notice of our status and compounds on it for our good and His purpose.

Whatever you are going through, learn something from it for the future. We all deal with a lot of chaos, but we must not let it defeat us; surrender it to God. The world has a way of beating us up via our circumstances; don't fall for this. God understands your hurt and your pain, even your disappointments, now trust Him to heal you.…
What does God have to do to get our attention now so we don't suffer later? God has done and will do everything to get us saved because He loves us so. God cannot leave us like we are because we will perish in our sin like Judah. God will give us many chances and then by and by those opportunities will fade.…
Despite what the world offers it fails us miserably, but the Word never fail us. We don't have to understand it, we just need to let it work in us and watch the change. God's actions always coincide with His Word. It doesn't matter who you are or what you've done, the power of the Word will fix you.By Naum Ware
The Resurrection may have been a long time ago, but our change keeps happening daily. There is power in the Resurrection that just keeps working due to our faith and God's power. Don't let the world define for you what it means to know Jesus. The Resurrection or Word will speak to you and then through you.…
Don't misconstrue what Palm Sunday is; it's more than laying out palm leaves. This was prophesy and a declaration; did you get it? We must make ourselves accessible to God's love through Jesus Christ. Have a little talk with Jesus; tell him all about your troubles...By Naum Ware
Stress is a commonly used word that we allow into our life and it causes great harm. It can mess with us mentally, physically, emotionally and even spiritually. Stress is manageable depending on how we handle it. Don't be ashamed to cry for help when you need it, especially to God.By Naum Ware
Nations are crying today because they are spiritually bankrupt. Our politicians and our spiritual leaders or pastors are horrible and it has reflected in our families and society. Prosperity gospel has our nation in spiritual hock. We have to get back to following God and not man or we will cry.By Naum Ware
God is the Potter, we are the clay; when we become marred, God will reshape us. Who are we to tell the Potter what shape we want to be or even question God's intent? Will we learn from past nations or will we make the same mistakes and become marred? In God's love and mercy He will not allow us to stay unsightly and unusable; He will refashion us.…
Have you considered where certain countries are today that used to be strong and on top? When you or your family refuses to accept what you are doing as wrong, decline is evitable.

We have wandered away from God to go where? God admonishes us over and over again to come home because He loves us. God calls us out on what we have drifted to, nonsense, broken wells while looking for clean water. God beseeches us to Remember, Realize, Return, and Beware.By Naum Ware
Everything in life that is worth having is worth waiting for. Don't get ahead of yourself, pushing things just because you want it "now".

The Amalekites in Exod. 17:8-16 were the first group to attack Israel in the wilderness; unprovoked. Yes, you will be attacked unprovoked, but partnered with God you will win. God will deal with your enemies, you just hold up your arms and keep praying and trusting God.By Naum Ware
