God’s Covenant with Noah – Part 3
This is part 3 of the Covenant that God made with Noah. Conditions on earth were so evil that God regretted making man. So, God decided to destroy all but Noah and his family of seven through a flood that covered the whole world. After 150 days in the ark, a new world opened for Noah and his family.

The Covenant With Noah, Part 1
There is so much to talk about in the Covenant with Noah that this is just part one. In this video, Val Black gives an overview of Genesis, Chapters 3 and 4, and also discusses some principles that were established which affect Christians today in their walk with God. In addition to polygamy, murder is also first seen in these early chapters. The conditions on Earth continue to deteriorate after Cain kills his brother, Abel. Genesis 3:15's two seeds are becoming more apparent. Click here: The Covenant with Noah - Part 1 ...
The Covenant of Creation
God is a covenant-making God. That means when He makes a promise to man He is always faithful to keep that promise. To prove that He is faithful, God makes covenants with man and in some cases, they are blood covenants. In this message, we talk about the first covenant in the Bible. It's not the covenant God made with Noah, promising never to flood the earth again, although that is the one most people would choose as the first one. The first covenant was made at creation when God made everything and called it "good". Be sure to have ...
The Covenants of God by Val Black
Recently, I have begun a series of teachings on God's covenants. It is my belief that with an understanding of the true significance of the covenants in the Bible, a Christian will gain a new perception of the Word and even develop a closer relationship with God. I speak from experience because that happened to me many years ago. That is also the reason I named our ministry Covenant Messenger Ministries because I realized covenants were the foundation of the Bible with some having been fulfilled and others yet to be fulfilled. Here is my reasoning: Malachi 3:1 says this, ...
Speaking Out About These Immoral Times
There are times when I feel the need to speak out about the path this nation has followed for several years and what God has placed on my heart. This is one of those times. Whether you agree or disagree is not my concern. I feel compelled to say it and let the chips fall where they may. So, with that said, here goes . . . . . This nation is in serious trouble internally and the majority of the population is only concerned over the price of gas and the increasing inflation, and rightly so. But there are ...
The Priest Who Found Christ
A note from Val: To my Catholic friends, I was born and raised in the Catholic Church, and many times in my youth I prayed to Mary, St. Christopher, St. Anthony, St. Philomena, and others, but I was never taught to go directly to Jesus in prayer. Looking back, I remember nuns who came to church to teach catechism. There was one nun in particular who was so sweet and pure in her mannerisms that I, at the age of about 10, found myself falling in love with her. She would talk about heaven as if she was a frequent visitor ...

On this Memorial Day, the nation is crying out and looking for answers to the recent tragic shootings and so many innocent lives lost.

What Manner of Man is This?
Luke 8:22-25 "Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth. 23 But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake, and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy. 24 And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and ...
FEAR AND COVID-19
I do not like heights. My wife and I were driving home one day and we saw men working on a cell phone tower that must have been about 300 to 400 feet tall. They were dangling by harnesses but they didn’t seem to be afraid. I do not envy people who work in high places. I am reminded of a joke once told by a comedian in a movie many years ago. He was in danger and was told to climb up to safety, but he confessed, “I don’t like high places. They make me sick. I even get ...
