Their marriage is so strong now that people come to them for marriage counseling.

Inspiration: As Bible College students, we were taught to quote chapter and verse when we teach others as the Holy Spirit speaks to people through the Bible. By teaching this way, God’s Word would go forth with power and accomplish great things.

Inspiration: A worship leader and his wife were unable to have children. A friend of theirs felt led by the Lord to build a wooden crib for a baby, asking the Lord to fill the crib for this barren couple. Intellectually, it seemed strange to give the gift of a crib at a time when the couple was unable to have a baby. However God honoured their faith and in time, the wife became pregnant and had a baby so that this “Faith Crib” was filled.

Inspiration: Some people think they are not special to God because of what they have done or what someone had said about them. When reading this scripture, I realize that what really is important is what God thinks about us. I was able to share with Christians that they are a precious jewel in God’s hand and He delights in them.

Inspiration: One lady got upset when someone told her that Jesus is the only access to eternal life. She thought her good works would be enough to get her into heaven. When challenged to accept Jesus into her life, she did so, and started Bible studies in her home. People that study the Bible realize that it is only by Jesus (who forgives us when we repent and turn to Him) that one can enter a holy heaven where there is no sin.

Inspiration: A couple was asked by God to start a Christian TV station which was a huge step of faith. They needed all the donations to arrive by the end of the month or else the deal would be cancelled. During the last week hardly any money came in. On the last day of the month they were $35,000 short. That same afternoon, a man came in with a check for exactly $35,000 saying he was on his way to buy a boat but the Lord told him to donate the money instead. They rushed to the bank and deposited the check just as the bank was closing. This started the first Christian TV station and many more have been started since then.

Inspiration: I attended church for many years before I found out what spiritual warfare was in the Bible.  I was leading one meeting when a church leader joined us.  As I spoke about each event, everyone seemed confused and asked me to repeat things several times.  I looked at the church leader as if to say, Why am I always repeating myself? and the reply was, There is confusion in this room and you did not pray over it,  did you?  This church leader showed me I needed to bind the enemy in prayer.

Inspiration: A church leader talked much about the Holiness of God and to revere God with holy fear. I had never been taught on the holiness of God but only the love of God, so at first I thought he was out of balance with too much talk of holiness. Later, I discovered that I was the one who was wrong and I needed to worship the Lord with much more reverence. This also produced a need for holiness in my life.

Inspiration: On a mission trip, we used an open fishing boat to preach the gospel. In one place someone removed the drain plug in our boat without replacing it, which caused the boat to sink under ten feet of water. Being far away from phones, there was no other solution but to pray that God would do a miracle. It took over three hours to pull the boat to the surface. We laid hands on the waterlogged engines and they started. Any mechanic would say God did a miracle! We praised God all the way home.

Inspiration: Over the centuries, some church leaders have taken a “vow of poverty” to help correct impending greed. Greediness is not from God, however poverty is not from God either. One church leader spoke at a business meeting and said: “Do you possess money or does money possess you?” This scripture points out that God does want us to prosper and be healthy as we let God control our money. However the essential part of the scripture is ..”as thy soul prospers..” God can bless as with health and prosperity to the degree we have the Word of God prospering in our souls and making our minds pure.

The boy knew it was a miracle since he did not tell anyone what he asked for.

Inspiration: I became a Christian shortly before I joined a large corporation. I never told anyone I was a Christian at work since I was more concerned about my career than anything else. I was scared to share Jesus with my fellow workers as I thought they would label me as a religious fanatic. I prayed to God for the baptism of the Holy Spirit and after that, God gave me boldness, not to impose my faith on others but to expose my faith. More and more opportunities arose for me to share my faith at lunch or after work with my colleagues. I wanted also to be like Daniel in the Bible, a man of excellence, to be a witness that way also.

Inspiration: A century ago, a Christian doctor was called by God to Africa to do missionary work. This doctor believed in God’s power to heal and protect him. When he arrived in Africa, a plague was killing many people. He demonstrated to the medics God’s power by putting a live sample of the plague bacteria under a microscope. He then placed the live bacteria on his arm, cursed it in the name of Jesus, then moved it back under the microscope. The medics found this same bacteria was now dead. God used this Christian to bring about a tremendous revival of supernatural miracles since he obeyed all God asked him to do.

He took the ring and gave the gas station’s money to the man. When the boss heard about it my friend was fired.

Inspiration: We can compare this scripture to the legal system. When criminals commit crimes they have to reap the consequences. However Christians often don’t see this in a positive light. One Bible teacher explained it in terms of seeds. Sow a corn seed and you will reap corn. Sow encouragement and you will reap encouragement. Sow love and you will reap love.

Inspiration: A farmer learned the power of his words in Jesus’ name. He had a large useless tree in his field taking up much crop space. One day he cursed this useless tree (just like Jesus cursed the fig tree in Mark 11:21). Six weeks later this tree was stone dead and the farmer knew it was due to his prayer. Decades later, this same farmer had a cancer spot on his liver. He remembered the tree on his farm and he cursed the cancer on his liver at the root and prayed for the disease to be cast out of his body. He believed the word spoken would come to pass and it did. The doctors confirmed there was no liver cancer!

Inspiration: The apostle Paul is a good example of preaching God’s love (1 Corinthians 13:1-13) without fear as he faced all kinds of opposition. His trust in God was so great that he was able to face death without any fear.

He bought a Bible and went to share this scripture with his brother and sister-in-law and pray for the baby. The young child was healed as God worked through the hands of the doctors.

Inspiration: Many people are living in God’s abundant life as they have dedicated their lives to the Lord Jesus. As one Bible teacher put it: “God is a good God.” Another Bible teacher taught that obeying God in all ways it is like walking under the umbrella of God’s protection, but if one decides to disobey God’s ways then one walks outside God’s umbrella of protection.

She became a Christian in her teenage years and is careful what movies she watches so they do not fuel unclean thinking.

He is from Seoul, South Korea and gets all his church to pray an hour a day and encourages evangelism. This country was mostly Buddhists many years ago but now has about 50% of the population claiming to be Christians.
