Fruit of Gentleness

Gentleness is biblical meekness, a positive quality, and Jesus commended it when he said that the meek will inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5). He lives the strength of his gentleness in 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.

Listening to God

I once heard someone say that if we have only ten minutes to pray, we should spend the first half listening and the second half petitioning.

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?

Encouragement in Believing

God’s Word alerts us that in difficult times our hearts can go astray.

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?

For the Good of Others

"Lord God our Father, whether we eat or drink or whatever we do, we do it all for Your glory. Help us as we try not to cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God and help us try to please everyone in every way. For we are not seeking our own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved. In Jesus name amen."

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?

JOY!

"If you have lost the joy of the Lord in your life," someone once observed, "who moved, you or God? For in His presence is fullness of joy."

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.

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.

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.

Deliverance Comes

Does God guarantee the absence of struggle? Not in this life.

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.

It’s Not about You

Belonging to God’s family can be a gentle rain on the desert of our loneliness. God, our Father, is ours because we are not the only believer left on earth. No matter how alone we may feel, we know that there are many others who worship Christ Jesus, our Lord.

Gathered Together

Most of us have probably spent that last couple of months during this pandemic sitting in front of our computers, tablets, or phones streaming a live sermon instead of attending church in person. Some might be tired of this way of church. Others might enjoy it.

Care-Givers

Will you join me in thanking God for the "care-givers" in our churches who continually find ways to reach out to their flock and will not let the Word be silenced? Lord, I am grateful for our amazing shepherds who have found such unique ways of caring for and feeding your flock.
