You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Spiritual darkness doesn’t rush in, it creeps in when light fades. The greatest threat to truth isn’t open rebellion, but quiet compromise. And history proves: when the Church loses conviction, culture breeds deception. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden" (Matthew 5:14).
God's faithfulness is covenantal, not contractual. In other words, let us be thankful that He is faithful in and of Himself, and that His faithfulness is not dependent upon us. "If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself" (2 Timothy 2:13).
Whatever is under God's control is never out of control. Thus, we'd do well to align our will with God's will! "Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness" (Psalm 143:10).
It's not just about not going to hell, but the ONE who saved you from hell. And it's not just about going to heaven, but the ONE who makes it heaven. It's about wanting more of Jesus now and having all of Jesus forever. "Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever" (Psalm 73:25-26).
Discernment is when our "eye sight" lines up with our insight. And such clarity comes only through the Word. To know the Word is to have the right eyes to see the world. "Open my eyes, that I may see Wondrous things from Your law" (Psalm 119:18).
When truth dies, lies thrive. And when lies thrive, people die. But faint not, because truth will eventually rise and reign in the righteous rule of Jesus Christ. So let us keep standing on His truth regardless of how far society strays from His truth. "So you shall say to them, ‘This is a nation that does not obey the voice of the Lord their God nor receive correction. Truth has perished and has been cut off from their mouth" (Jeremiah 7:28).
A civilization that kills its own will eventually kill itself. "O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name" (Daniel 9:19).
Christian, use your brain. I’m not talking to the world; I’m talking to true believers. Discernment isn’t just a spiritual gift; it’s a spiritual discipline. It’s forged through...
The problem with our country is NOT that evil or darkness has entered every facet of our every day culture. No! I believe the evil and darkness are a direct result of goodness and light failing to stand up and stand out within our culture. You see, evil can only triumph when good men choose to do nothing. And darkness can only prevail when light is not present. The Bible declares, “the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it” (John 1:4). The LIGHT SHINES (present). The DARKNESS DID NOT (past). The victory has already been won; yet, it appears we are living in defeat. Nonsense! The darkness did not comprehend.....
Ever heard the saying, “I’m not perfect.” I hope so, because if you’re human than you probably used it. But that’s not the excuse I’m offering today. Not when you know the root of such a saying can be an excuse for the absence of accountability. Please allow me to explain. When I was in prison, we ran a Bible study on my tier. This fellowship time was not only the pulse of the housing unit, but it was also the bulls- eye of those who didn’t attend. Many would sit on the outskirts listening, curious about the mechanisms of a Bible study. Some would sit secluded in their areas ignoring the content being shared, but still aware of.....
--journal, March 2010, from prison-- How can we ever possibly think this life is hard compared to what Jesus went through? Fully God and fully human. He felt everything we feel, yet lived without sin. Jesus left his home in heaven to live on earth. He experienced the eternal pleasures of His kingdom, yet he decided to take on the discomfort of our slums, for what? For God so loved the world (John 3:16). And all we have to do is believe in Him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. He already did the hard stuff. Born human, but all God. Sinless, but among sinners; deserving of constant praise and adoration, but received insults and blaspheming tongues; could have ascended.....
I cannot be hesitant to lend my opinion to the current cultural discussion that is taking place via media sources. My faith calls me to do so—and I hope when I speak that I always speak with the love of Christ. I try to keep it real-- my “Volume Up” videos hold nothing back. My past blogs never stuttered when it came to presenting truth. So considering the recent Supreme Court ruling regarding the institution of marriage, I biblically, practically, and mathematically have a response. You see, the hashtag used to celebrate this monumental law change, #LoveWins, makes me ask the question: Does love really win? Ok, I get it. Man’s personal application of love seemingly won, but....
