You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Light doesn’t argue with darkness, it simply shines into it. And darkness has no defense against even the smallest flame. In the same way, you don’t have to out-shout the culture or win every argument, you just have to out-shine it with Christ in you. "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden" (Matthew 5:14).
Hell has many ways. Heaven but one. Thus, know Christ, no death. Or, no Christ, know death. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me" (John 14:6).
Those who are obedient to truth are never compliant to lies. You see, real eyes realize real lies; and as a result, disciples of Christ do not blindly comply. "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth..." (John 16:13).
Now to Him who is able to preserve you on earth from falling and present you in heaven without fault. "To God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen" (Jude 25).
He who walks with integrity walks securely. In other words, you do not need to worry about outcomes when you trust the Lord for all that comes out. "He who walks with integrity walks securely, but he who perverts his ways will become known" (Proverbs 10:9).
God is in control always and in all ways. Thus, He is worthy of praise always and in all our ways. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths" (Proverbs 3:5-6).
There is no such thing as human chance or coincidence, just divine providence. And to know this is to always have peace through any crisis. "You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You" (Isaiah 26:3).
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...
--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....
The weather has been pretty suspicious lately rapidly moving from random and sporadic thunderstorms to hail falling from the sky to tornadoes touching down. Sometimes the weather forecast seems to be inconsistent, yet most of the time, we are still able to discern what’s coming by way of satellites and maps. And that reminds me of the words of Jesus as He rebukes the religious folk for asking for a sign from heaven. He sharply says, “Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times” (Matthew 16:3). So how is it we can discern the face of the sky, but not discern....
The human body is a resilient instrument and can sustain a substantial amount of trauma. But, one of the most vulnerable organs is the heart--if it takes an intense hit-- the likelihood that the body will shut down is imminent. And that is what is known as a heart attack, where an inadequate supply of oxygen causes an area of the heart muscle to die, radiating and destroying other parts of the body. And while a physical heart attack can be fatal, quite the opposite occurs when the heart of God (His people) are attacked--it then proves to be resilient and full of mercy. God’s blood drips forgiveness as exhibited by the victims of those connected to the recent cold blood......
