The Bible says that love is a responsibility. We are commanded to love. God doesn't ask us if we feel like it, He tells us in His Word that it is our responsibility to love.

Even though it has been nearly 2,000 years since Christ's first coming, His second coming is certain.
David Jeremiah
Image
I believe the sense of lost opportunity is rooted in a faulty understanding of God's grace. Likewise, when grace is grasped and embraced, the Land of Opportunity becomes yours again.
David Jeremiah
Image
But since the Word of God is complete, serving as the ultimate sign needed to lead mankind to Christ, miracles are an exception rather than the rule. And when they occur, they are always for His glory.
David Jeremiah
Image
Trust God for the impossible-miracles are His department. Our job is to do our best, letting the Lord do the rest.
David Jeremiah
Image
If you feel so lonely you could cry, take the focus off yourself. Think of how much God loves you, and find another person whom you can serve today.
David Jeremiah
Image
As Christians, we're under oath all the time. We're not always required to say everything we think or know, but we're always to speak as He did-truthfully.
David Jeremiah

When I put God first, God takes care of me and energizes me to do what really needs to be done.

Prayer is the key to unlocking God's prevailing power in your life.
David Jeremiah

When we gather for worship, whether with a handful in a storefront chapel or with thousands in St. Peter's Square, we perform a drama with different parts-speaking and singing and praying and giving money and baptizing and eating bread and drinking wine-all for the delight of God.
David Jeremiah
Image
Sin is like a cancer that destroys step by step, sometimes so slowly we don't realize what's happening to us.
David Jeremiah
Image
Salvation is one of the Bible's great words, but many don't understand that the Bible presents salvation in three stages. Many people consider salvation a one-time, past event. They forget its ongoing nature.
David Jeremiah
Image
Our ownership in Christ is documented in the Word of God, and our names are registered in the Lamb's Book of Life.
David Jeremiah
Image
If we don’t have the Word of God as the foundation of what we believe, we will have a faulty footing—it will not stand against the elements that will come against us. God has designed both our physical and spiritual lives to be ordered by one key attribute upon which the fruit of the Spirit is based—that foundation is love.
David Jeremiah
Image
It's not that your most important work is meaningless it's that your most trivial movements are also significant.
David Jeremiah
Image
If we don't take inventory every once in a while and give thanks to God for the great things He has done for us, we get totally out of perspective.

I have been asked this question over and over again: 'Dr. Jeremiah, do you think God is finished with America?' But that is the wrong question. The right question is: 'Is America finished with God?'

Image
The Lord's Prayer reminds us that God longs for His people to communicate with Him, not just in church on Sunday, but wherever we are and whatever our need.
David Jeremiah
Image
Confession basically means saying the same thing about your sin as God says. So if you say you want to develop integrity, but you're not willing to face the rough parts and confess them, you won't get there.
David Jeremiah
Image
When culture changes around us, God's standard of living does not. Even when we're engulfed by evil, the eyes of the Lord range to and fro throughout all the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him.
David Jeremiah

If you're anxious about the state of the world, that's understandable. But trade your anxiety for the blessing of hearing the words of Scripture, keeping them in faith and obedience, and remembering the time is near.
