God sent us the prosperity of the 1920s to show that He loves us, but we didn’t listen, so He sent us the Depression as an increasing attempt to inspire us to “call on His Name, humbling ourselves and praying, seeking His face, and turning from our wicked ways.”  But...

Let no one mislead you about the times in which we live.  If the parable of the fig tree and the signs of Matthew 24 are not enough, look at one last mile marker given by the prophet Daniel: the increase of travel and knowledge.  Daniel accurately foretold the...

If the church worldwide will stand up as the light Jesus intended her to be, the politics of nations will right themselves.  Legislation can’t change people’s hearts, but the touch of God can!  It is more important to have a nation that prays, but it is also desirable...

Nebuchadnezzar was the most powerful man on the face of the earth, as the unrivaled leader of the massive Babylonian Empire.  His military victories had expanded his kingdom beyond anything the world had seen before.  Built on the site where the Tower of Babel had...

I was in Caesarea in Israel at the home of my attorneys, a husband and wife team.  We were having lunch one day, and they had three Israeli generals there for lunch.  (These are very famous attorneys in Israel.)  And as we sat down to have lunch, the wife knew that I...
