You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
The devil’s accusations stop where the blood of Jesus starts; and hell’s fury can’t outrun Heaven’s victory. Stay covered by the blood, anchored in the Word, and fearless in your testimony. "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death" (Revelation 12:11).
The applause of hands doesn't change the humble of heart. In other words, those whose hearts are real before the Lord are not persuaded by the appeal of the world. "Thus says the Lord: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the Lord"" (Jeremiah 17:5).
There is a time to hold your tongue and there is a time when your tongue holds you. And to know which time is which is to know the different weights between the two. The one weight is when the Spirit presses you to wait. The other weight is when the Spirit presses you to speak. "There is a time to be silent and a time to speak" (Ecclesiastes 3:7).
Being in right standing with God leads to standing right for God. And those that stand right for Christ are not trying to make earth heaven but bring heaven to earth. "You are the salt of the earth..." (Jesus).
God often removes what is unhealthy in order to groom and grow His body. Like pruning reveals, the process may be painful but it is fruitful. “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit" (John 15:1-2).
Amid judgment, there is always a faithful remnant. And the faithful remnant is always obedient to the Bible regardless of their surrounding environment being hostile. "Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus" (Revelation 14:12)
Those who do not want the God of the Bible will be given over to the gods of Babel. And unlike the forgiveness of the One True God, these false gods are unforgiving. "And it will be when you say, ‘Why does the Lord our God do all these things to us?’ then you...
On Labor Day weekend, I’ll begin a new teaching series at Landmark Church titled “The Last Revelation: Countdown To The Kingdom.” For the past several months, I’ve been studying, praying, and seeking the Lord in preparation for what He desires to...
You never really know how much someone is hurting. It’s impossible to see what is happening on the inside because it is human nature to create defensive dams on the outside to keep our intensive tears from breaking through like a faulty floodgate. Sometimes you can sense pent-up pain, but you can’t feel it compassionately unless you are allowed to touch it, and like a raw nerve that is exposed, it must be diagnosed and treated before one can get a sense.......
My sentencing day January 7th, 2010, came fast. Each day leading up to it was like the rushing sands in an hour glass pouring non-stop reminders that soon it would be empty and reckoning day was near; time flew by from Thanksgiving spilling right into Christmas. The holidays, with all their promise of hope and glad tidings, seemed mechanical and surreal. I felt detached; indifferent. The warm and fuzzy reminders of past family gatherings only added to the strain of going through the motions, putting on a face of hope, when all real enchantment was gone. In addition, this time of the year always brought to our remembrance the life of my brother who passed away....
The following was written to my parents three weeks after my accident on April 1, 2009. My mother recently found it in a pile of notes in her old Bible. Considering I just got done teaching “You Are What You Keep,” Part 2 of our series Unbreakable ReSOULutions at my church, I am in awe of what the Holy Spirit guided me to write--that many years ago. This is just a portion of the three-page letter: Dad and Mom: So where do I begin? My mind races every moment of the day and I still....
Have you ever heard the term “Swan Song?” It refers to the ancient belief that swans sing a beautiful song in the moment just before death, having been silent or not so musical during most of their lifetime. Stemmed from Greek mythology, I find there is some metaphorical truth to this. It is often in our darkest moments that we have a decision to make regarding....
