You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
When you stand for truth, don’t be surprised when you’re thrown into the fire. But it’s in the furnace that God proves He’s with you. He honors conviction over compromise, even when the crowd walks away. So don’t flinch, He’s worth it. “But if not, let it be known… that we do not serve your gods” (Daniel 3:18).
Do you have a "thorn in the flesh?" Let it bring you to the point of your own inadequacy and there discover God's sufficiency--His grace! "And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made...
True humility is when you simply do what God has asked you to do, while not looking to others for approval. It's also accepting the place that God has asked you to be, while not looking to others for removal. In short, true humility is trusting in God's sovereignty.
Worry comes when we attempt to steal tomorrow from God's hands. Therefore, leave tomorrow to God's plans and live today within God's peace. "Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble" (Matthew 6:34).
With Jesus, weakness is never wasted. In fact, with Jesus, you can be open about your brokenness knowing His grace is sufficient. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect...
Spiritual maturity isn't measured by you getting more of the Holy Spirit, but rather the Holy Spirit getting more of you. "Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh" (Galatians 5:16).
When we stop longing for Jesus, we stop living for Jesus. Because complacency replaces conviction when heaven seems too distant. Therefore, let us "set our mind on things above, not on the things of earth" (Colossians 3:2).
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...
“If you have any negative questions, comments, or concerns, please forward them to my Complaint Department. His name is Little John.” ✝ I say that jokingly in assemblies sometimes, and it certainly gets the audience laughing; because at this point in the presentation, they have already heard me share a story about Little John and I, which involves some prison drama and a tense showdown with some gang members. Of course I couple the story with his picture to drive the oxymoron home about Little John--not being so little......
Our performance doesn’t enhance or reduce God’s faithfulness. And with that opening sentence, it is my utmost privilege to report that God is still in the salvaging business despite our idea behind our own personal usefulness. Sarah and I recently participated in a youth event in Pennsylvania where I was the keynote speaker of the night. I’ve done this particular “presentation” before, which requires PowerPoint slides and embedded video; for it is the most structured way to tell my story without getting caught up in certain areas and timelines. Time is always ticking....
I am currently in Paramus, NJ, where this hotel will be Sarah and mines home away from home for the next 3 days. I am up here for several assemblies at area schools, funded by State Farm, and in conjunction with the Be Still Foundation. Now that school is back in session, my speaking engagement schedule is in full throttle. I will actually be doing about 26 engagements before the New Year, not counting ministry-speaking platforms. Again, I make mention of this busyness because....
I always try to write out of a storehouse of my own experiences and feelings. I mean, when I present hope as being the anchor of the soul through a struggle, I'm not just throwing out a platitude. I’m doing so from having lived through the paralyzing feel of struggle. Many struggles. However I have learned that hope is a handle, that allows for you to open up....
