You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Worry borrows tomorrow’s problems but spends today’s peace. The weight we imagine for the future often crushes our joy in the present. But God doesn’t ask us to carry tomorrow, He invites us to cast every care onto Him today. “Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7).
Christ cannot be our present source of peace if we are constantly trying to chase the worlds pace. You see, when the heart stops running, peace begins reigning. "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful" (Colossians 3:15).
The heart of all our countries problems is a problem of the heart. If the heart of man doesn't change, then nothing will change. And only the Gospel of Jesus Christ can do that. "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12).
The fastest way to lose sight of what God has called you to is to begin caring what others think of you. Fearing man ensnares; but fearing the Lord inspires. "The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe" (Proverbs 29:25).
Christians are to be counter to culture, while at the same time being the character of culture. In other words, salt changes what it touches but is not changed by the touch. Likewise, Christians are to be the godly influence of the world but we are not to be influenced by the ungodly world.
The blessings of God are not for the self-sufficient but for the poor in spirit. You see, to know we are bankrupt without Christ is to make us dependent upon His life. “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 5:3).
When the going gets tough, don't give up, but rather know that Christ is enough. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13)
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...
Nobody can curse what God has blessed.I will testify that having a “Merry Christmas” has nothing to do with presents and everything to do with His presence. And guess what? From the beginning of time, God allows His promises to be born in strange places. “In a manger” (Luke 2:7). My Savior was born outside the world’s acceptance. “No room for them in the inn” (Luke 2:7). Having a "Merry Christmas" isn't about being liked by the crowd.......
Every time I look at my Bible I’m reminded of two things: prison and peace. How is that possible? First, it wasn’t that prison was my peace, but I was imprisoned by peace while in prison. And the peace of God that guarded me was greater than any guard or wall that confined me. And second, one day I was out of my area and a guy in my housing unit decided to surprise me with a gift. This gentleman had noticed how worn and torn my Bible cover was and found it fitting to make a new unique cover for it. The material?
Recently I was doing a teaching at my church on the topic of “worry.” Naturally I was telling parts of my own story—particularly what was going through my mind after finding out that I was responsible for an at-fault drunk driving accident where an innocent man was killed. I was using my experiences to highlight the power of God in our lives–especially when all seems so hopeless. My parents were in church that day. After church was over, my mom was turning in a ‘response card’ to one of the ushers.....
My speaking schedule the past several weeks has been quite busy. We’ve been back and forth from one end of the state to the other doing multiple engagements, with each stop having its own climatic flavor, while some have inadvertently provided their own type of humor. I still laugh in my head when I think of this one incident. I’m telling about my meeting with my lawyer and how much time I was looking to do in prison, (up to 10 years), and say how I wasn’t worried about it. Not because I was in denial, but because....
