You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Trials aren’t setbacks, they’re setups for growth. God allows testing to stretch your faith and develop spiritual endurance. And having joy in hardship isn’t denial, it’s trust in God’s refining process; because the goal isn’t survival but maturity. “But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing” (James 1:4).
Sadly, not everybody that's with you is actually for you. Nonetheless, keep in mind, "if God is for you, who can be against you?" (Romans 8:31)
God removed our sins from us by bearing our sins for us. And b/c He bore our sins on the cross, we no longer have to bury our sins in our heart. "As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us" (Psalm 103:12).
Before we speak to someone about their sin, we need to speak to God about them. Thus, let us be those who intercede in prayer before we interrupt in person. "If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin which...
For the believer, prayer is not optional, it is essential. If we are not praying, we are not growing. You see, we pray, not so we can direct God, but so that God can direct us. "Whether you turn to the right or to the...
God will never allow a burden to be placed upon you without placing His arms beneath you. In other words, God supplies the grace to lift every weight. "And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness" (II Corinthians 12:9).
Prayer isn't "name it, claim it." Prayer is knowing that if you claim His will, by His name He will. In other words, He will according to His Word, not ours!
Many are reacting to the recent exchange between Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz, but the real issue isn’t politics, it’s perspective. More specifically, it’s a lack of biblical perspective. Despite their influence, both men reveal a limited grasp of Scripture. Tucker views everything through an America-first lens, opposing any foreign policy...
I recently was asked to put together a ‘year in review’ resume for a proposal that a friend of mine was working on. It was not the easiest thing to do given all of the ministry opportunities God has given me since my release from prison. I think it was then, when I was crunching the numbers, that I was truly humbled by the many different outlets God has given me to plant seeds or water existing seeds--about Who He is and what He will do with surrendered hearts. I feel like there is ministry opportunity at every juncture. Recently, my mother.....
I don’t believe there is ever anything wasteful about adversity, unless we ourselves see the adversity as wasteful. Thus, our vision determines our conclusion. Without vision, a person has no purpose; and without purpose, a person has no hope. A life absent of hope then, is a life absent of life. I’m not trying to get all philosophical—but the bottom line is—that God has given us Jesus as the focal point of our hope, which allows us to walk through any of the temporary stuff--messy or not--with the steps of eternity....
I guess I will always need fuel to feed the flame of my pen. I was never at a loss for words while in prison, due to the nature of constant chaos that God allowed me to filter into countless writings, day by day for almost 5 years. Now out, I find myself really racking my brain for my next blog, column, or “daily inspiration.” But in this very moment, I tell you the truth, my thoughts......
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy" --MLK jr. The believer must refuse to allow injustice to speak louder than integrity. Because most of the time even the most eloquent words won't be heard over the ignorant majority. Nonetheless, godly character always endures the conflict of the enemy, solely because the heart knows that what's eventually coming is called GLORY! Truth always marches on.
