You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Gratitude turns what we have into enough, because it shifts our focus from what’s missing to Who is present. A thankful heart sees God’s hand in both plenty and in pain, and finds peace in His provision. When we practice gratitude, lack loses its grip and contentment takes its place. “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
Stop trying to figure it out and start praying to filter it out. You see, the more you talk to the Lord about it, the clearer you become about it. Delighting in Him is what clarifies the desires of our heart. "Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart" (Psalm 37:4).
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).
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...
It doesn’t matter if you talk about God or not, people should know that you are set apart and biblical based on the way you live out your convictions. In other words, you can be silent but still loud for Jesus. Consider the examples we find in the book of Esther in the Bible, which, by the way, has no formal reference or mention of God. Not once. But like the characters in that book, we don’t have to verbally quote God for our lives to visually....
I believe my spiritual alignment and character development has been because of the child-rearing, faithful appeals, and the fervent prayers to God which came from the heart of my beloved mother. She has prayed for my life to be used for God’s glory, but this wasn’t a responsive prayer to my tragedy, this was actually a progressive prayer from my youth. She prayed in this diligent manner over all of her children--for our futures and families--to be men of character, conviction, and community. Her prayers went up and I see...
The easy route is rarely the right route. And that’s why we say, “they took the easy way out” in reference to someone that bailed out. The book of Proverbs says it like this, “If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small” (24:10). Basically, when we bail out, we are only showing our true character out. God allows adversity to befall us, not to belittle us, but to benefit us......
I was sitting out on my front yard recently watching the traffic of people walk the boards. With the beautiful beach only 30 yards in front of me, I thanked God for where HE currently had me. You see, my front yard is the boardwalk and the beach is my horizon; yet would you believe me if I told you that my current latitude and longitude has nothing to do with my heart of gratitude? I mean, of course I am appreciative of my present position, but the outward view has nothing to do with....
