Risky Business

Really, deeply, openly loving another person can be scary.

Simply Ask

When you and I have access to God’s power, there’s joy. Joy is more than happiness. It’s long-lasting, beyond emotion. It’s an inner peace that is calming and sparkling. Experiencing such inner delight strengthens us to pursue God’s will even more. This helps us to live our best life.

Words that Saved My Life

Words are powerful for good or for destruction. Words can bless or wound deeply.

The Heart is What Matters

God, forgive me for judging others’ faith by their outward appearance. Help me see people the way You do. Amen.

Don’t Be Afraid

Let God bring you life.. He won’t turn you away, and you will have his love forever. Fear him while you have breath and come to him in repentance.

God Sized Prayers

Our prayers don't have to be limited to what we can think of to ask for. God is far greater and more creative.

More than Conquerors

Are we really conquerors despite "trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword"? Yes! That is the ultimate Christian assurance.

The Slow Burn of Insecurity

What do we mean by insecurity? It’s a feeling of inadequacy, often compounded by a sense of complete helplessness, purposelessness, disapproval, or rejection. All of these things can slowly accumulate and weigh us down if we don’t learn how to identify them.

Make An Exchange

God, I am ready. No more holding back, no more storing up treasures that will only hinder my growth and keep me from living the life that You have so graciously died to give me.

God, Your Refuge

Make God your refuge. Not your job, your spouse, your reputation, or your retirement account. Make God your refuge! Let Him encircle you. Let Him be the foundation upon which you stand!

God’s Question

God’s first recorded question is one that rings down through the ages: “Where are you?"

Listen Up

Are you a good listener? Studies have shown that we stop talking only an average of 17 seconds before we resume speaking in a conversation, and most of that time, we are thinking about what we want to say next! Sometimes prayer can be like that, with God barely getting a word in edgewise, as we monopolize the conversation.

Be Quick to Pray

How do you handle your tough times? When you’re tired of trying, tired of forgiving, tired of hard weeks or hard-headed people how do you manage your dark days?

Gentle and Humble

A gentle spirit is something we cannot produce in ourselves. But the Holy Spirit produces “love, joy, peace, kindness, gentleness” and much more. Why not ask the Holy Spirit to be in control of your life from now on?

Called Out of the Dark

The dark can be a scary place. I have never felt comfortable in the darkness. My imagination runs to places I’d never think of if I was in a lit room.

Keeping with God’s Will

O Righteous Father and Holy God, forgive me for being selfish with the funds you have so richly shared with me. I want to give my heart and my life to you fully, not holding back anything from your will, and I ask you to help me know how to best use the blessings you have entrusted to me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

My All is Enough

Sanctified, blameless. Those words have always seemed unreachable to me. I believe in and depend on the finished work of Jesus for the salvation of my soul. His grace covers me, of that I’m certain. But blameless?

EL SHADDAI – The All Sufficient God

Many persons have lost their major sources of income and a whole lot are barely managing to stand on their feet as a result of the pandemic. If you are in any of these categories, God wants you to know that He is El-Shaddai – The All Sufficient God.

Protection and Direction

Thank-you gracious and mighty God for your 'protecting' cover by day and the 'directing' fire by night. And also for your 'providing' loving arms that carry us all the time. In Jesus name, amen. Psalm 105:39

Cast Yourself Upon the Grace of Christ

Guilt sucks the life out of our souls. Grace restores it. No one had more reason to feel the burden of guilt than did the apostle Paul.

2020-08-04

God is Sovereign

Then life doesn’t make sense, we can know that it’s all known to God. No matter what our circumstances, we can know that God is always in control and He is bigger than our circumstances.

Unshakable Peace

Jesus said to seek peace in Him because He has overcome this troublesome world (John 16:33)). Let’s shift our focus from our vexing problem to God and ask for His peace to surround us today.

Don’t Go It Alone

Just because we cannot touch each other doesn’t mean we can’t stay in touch.

Not Give Me, but Make Me

God is more interested in our character than in our comfort. To conform us to Christ-like-ness takes time. It also takes adversity. The answers to “give me” are temporal, whereas the answers to “make me” are eternal.
