You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
There’s a spiritual war raging behind the scenes of what we see in the world. Revelation 12 reminds us that Satan isn’t just attacking nations, he’s targeting God’s redemptive plan and those who belong to Christ. But the victory is already won through the blood of the Lamb. Today, live like a conqueror in Christ: speak truth, stand firm, and don’t back down in the face of pressure. “And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought…” (Revelation 12:7).
Just as the Lord works through faith, Satan works through fear. And when fear is present, peace is absent. Thus, let your faith rise as peace falls and fear flees. "Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You. In God (I will praise His word), in God I have put my trust; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me?" (Psalm 56:3-4)
If we know Christ, we know all we need to know. In other words, knowing the Truth well is the relationship necessary to discern the lies of hell. "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will...
From Cyrus the Great to leaders of late, God is able to use unrighteous rulers to accomplish His righteous rule. You see, His omnipotence is not hindered by man's wickedness. "Who says of Cyrus, ‘He is My shepherd, and he shall perform all My pleasure..." (Isaiah 44:28a).
God always has a remnant in every age. And the remnant would rather stand with God and be judged by the world than stand with the world and be judged by God. "Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how...
Christ is either Lord of all or He is not Lord at all. In other words, we are either trusting Him with all things (the good, the bad, the ugly) because He is able, or our trust in Him is selective and thereby unstable. You see, comfort and confidence...
God is faithful, even when we are faithless. He is gracious, even when we are graceless. He loves us in spite of us. And He won't abandon His work of grace in us. "Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ" (Philippians 1:6).
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...
Not too many days pass without receiving a message from someone through social media or through my website about a present adversity that they are navigating. Not only is it an honor that they trust me with their plights, but my way of honoring them back is by humbly offering them my personal pain insights. And for the record, you don't learn ministry through a textbook or...
(Book #1 of the Core Conviction Series--Imprisoned by Peace) Where have I been most of my young life thus far? I have been all over the country in my travels with soccer, from childhood as a novice player to adulthood as a professional athlete. I have been to so many great colleges and universities, visiting those campuses either for pleasure or sports-related activities. I have even lived in some beautiful cities in my day. But where have I been while...
Some may call it an epiphany, but I choose to call it a symphony, because these thoughts are music to my soul. I didn’t have to write this blog, I got to. I don't have to wake up and get in the Word, I get to. I don’t have to share my heart as I speak in schools, it’s a blessing to. I don’t have to prepare messages for church...
These thoughts were written in March of 2013 while I was incarcerated at Mid-State Correctional Facility. As I re-read them now all of this time later, I realize they are still appropriate. These thoughts are still the desire of my heart ("that Jesus may increase and I may decrease"): "I just want to be avoided or overlooked by my peers and especially by the...
