'The LORD is my portion,' says my soul, 'therefore I will hope in him.'" - Lamentations 3:22-24  Whenever we are knocked down, we may be tempted to lose hope.

by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on September 11th, 2026

In What Are We Hoping?
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on September 10th, 2026
“Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love,” - Psalm 33:22  In our culture the word hope implies “wishful thinking.” We say’ “I hope it’s going to rain” or “I hope I get that job.” Biblical hope, however, is the future tense of faith. Hebrews 11:1 teaches, “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for” or of what the future holds. Hope says, “I...  Read More

The Performance Trap
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on September 9th, 2026
The moment you received Christ into your heart, you were born again. At that moment, God loved you as much as He ever will love you.

by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on September 9th, 2026

प्रदर्शन का जाल
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on September 9th, 2026
जिस क्षण आपने मसीह को अपने हृदय में ग्रहण किया, आपका नया जन्म हुआ। उस क्षण, परमेश्वर ने आपको उतना ही प्रेम किया जितना वह आपसे कभी भी करेंगे। क्योंकि उनका प्रेम सिद्ध है, आपके प्रति उनका प्रेम उस क्षण से कभी भी अधिक या कम नहीं होगा जब आपने अपना जीवन उन्हें समर्पित किया था। फिर भी, कभी-कभी उनके प्रेम पर भरोसा करना कठिन होता है।कुछ समय पहले, एक महिला वैवाहिक समस्याओं के कारण टूटे हुए दिल के साथ मेरे ...  Read More

by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on September 9th, 2026
في اللحظة التي قبلت فيها المسيح في قلبك، وُلدت من جديد. في تلك اللحظة، أحبك الله بقدر ما سيحبك على الإطلاق. لأن محبته كاملة، فلن تكون محبته لك أكثر أو أقل من تلك اللحظة التي وهبت فيها حياتك له. ومع ذلك، في بعض الأحيان يكون من الصعب الوثوق بمحبته.منذ بعض الوقت، دخلت سيدة إلى مكتبي، مكسورة القلب بسبب مشاكل زوجية. على الرغم من صلواتها، تركها زوجها من أجل امرأة أخرى. كيف يمكنها التأقلم؟ كيف يمكنها أن ...  Read More

Be Brave: God Stands by His Own
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on September 8th, 2026
“There was a great uproar, and some of the teachers of the law who were Pharisees stood up and argued vigorously. ‘We find nothing wrong with this man,’ they said. ‘What if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?’ The dispute became so violent that the commander was afraid Paul would be torn to pieces by them. He ordered the troops to go down and take him away from them by force and bring him into...  Read More

God Has Plans for Those He Has Chosen
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on September 7th, 2026
“As they were shouting and throwing off their cloaks and flinging dust into the air, the commander ordered that Paul be taken into the barracks. He directed that he be flogged and interrogated in order to find out why the people were shouting at him like this. As they stretched him out to flog him, Paul said to the centurion standing there, ‘Is it legal for you to flog a Roman citizen who hasn’t e...  Read More
