You Qualify

Don't waste another minute thinking you somehow don't qualify for God's help because of the messes in your life.

Knots in the Sail

The book of Acts shows that, when believers are filled with the Spirit, they’re anything but stationary. They speak God’s Word boldly. They endure persecution. They care for and do good to others. Being filled with the Spirit goes beyond brimming with joy, peace, self-control, and the like. He produces action.

The Covid Road

You can walk the Covid road knowing the peace that is absolutely beyond understanding. It’s God’s sure promise.

The Unchanging Lord

Question: How does God’s unchanging nature give you comfort in difficult times of instability?

God’s Power on Display

God says to each of us, “I the Lord have spoken, and I will do it.” Lord, show me how big you are. Help me see you for who you really are. Amen.

More than a Helper

I have never seen the Spirit with my eyes, but he bears witness with my spirit that I am his.

Changed by the Spirit

The first step in our journey of exploring the Holy Spirit in our lives is to allow our minds to be transformed and our hope set fully on the grace that redeemed us from an empty way of life.

Don’t Leave Me

Do you feel a bit lost right now? It’s okay. If Jesus is with you, you are never alone. Call out to the Holy Spirit to comfort you and guide you. He’ll grasp your hand. You can count on it.

God Surrounds Us

Be careful. Hard hearts never heal. Spongy ones do! Open every pore of your soul to God’s presence. Here’s how. Lay claim to the nearness of God.

Sanctified Trials

Real growth in grace is the result of sanctified trials. God often takes away our comforts and our privileges in order to make us better Christians. He trains His children, not in dwellings of ease and luxury, but by using them in hard service.

God Listens to Us

“The Lord sees the good people and listens to their prayers” 1 Peter 3:12

Heart Proofs

Open the eyes of my heart, Lord, so I may know you and hear what you have to say to me. I desire to do what you have called me to do in your strength so that your will would be accomplished in my life. Amen.

Building Others Up

The goal in Christian communication is not just clarity. Neither is the goal just to be understood. The goal is not even just to be truthful. The goal is to be appropriate, encouraging, and uplifting to others based on the needs of that other person.

The Doormat

Jesus offers more than a temporary cleansing of our body. His promises to clean us on the inside.

Satisfaction for the Thirsty Soul

Think about a time you experienced unbearable thirst. You probably would have traded anything for a drink. When you finally got your wish, there was nothing that could have tasted better than that cold, refreshing glass of water.

Fear’s Antidote

From a very young age, I’ve always battled fear and anxiety. No doubt there are many reasons for this, but perhaps foremost is because my parents divorced when I was young.

Mercy Not Wrath

Time after time, the scriptural command is to pray for, not against; to pray mercifully, not vindictively. God's call is for prayer moved by compassion, not condemnation.

2020-04-18

Barely Thriving

Thank you Lord for not abandoning us, but mercifully nurturing us as we learn to grow in Your spirit. Amen.

A Cry for Help

O God, please hear my cry for relief, as well as the relief of those I love, from agony, burdens, and suffering. Please answer in amazing and miraculous ways so that we may not only be relieved, but so that you may be glorified as well. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

The Problem with Unresolved Guilt

What kind of person does unresolved guilt create?

The Other Side of Confession

It is so easy to see our own flaws and shortcomings. But when God sees us He doesn’t only see what we’ve done, He sees who we are. There are two sides to confession. Agree with God about what you have done and repent, but don’t miss the other side. Agree with God about who you are: loved and wanted and precious and worth dying for.

Wisdom for Deep Waters

Father God, I ask you to give me wisdom through the Holy Spirit and help me to apply it to my daily life. Help me float in your grace and not drown in the deep waters washing over my life. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Jesus the Nazarene

Have you experienced family situations such as are described above? What is your immediate reaction when friends or family do not appreciate your experiences? How might your reactions change if you remembered that Jesus, too, experienced such misunderstanding?
