You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Some opportunities don’t come again. Just as Paul sensed winter approaching and called for urgency, when God prompts your heart, act quickly. Delayed obedience can be disobedience in disguise. Discern what season you're in right now and do what the Spirit is leading you to do. “Do your utmost to come before winter" (2 Timothy 4:21).
Though a desert may surround you, when you long for Jesus, there is no desert within you. "O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts forYou; My flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water" (Psalm 63:1).
Don't miss what it is Jesus is trying to do through your trial. Too often we don’t see what He is doing because we are too focused on what He’s not doing. And because we only see our pain, we don’t see His plan. Don't miss it, for trials are often...
Why would the Lord keep His scars after He rose from the dead? Perhaps His nail-prints are a blueprint that outlines His love's eternal imprint. You see, He paid our sinful debt with His sinless life and death. And by keeping His scars, perhaps He wanted...
Conforming to sin leads to a hard heart. Concealing sin leads to a heavy heart. But confessing sin leads to a holy heart. "Then I acknowledged my sin to You and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions...
Joy may be seen with a smile—but deep joy is clearly seen through a trial. You see, joy becomes the composure of the soul when we surrender to the truth that God is always in control. "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as...
God does not throw away the qualities we abuse, but rather He rewires them for His use. In other words, when we come to know Him personally, He will take our misplaced passions and harness them for the use of heaven. His Spirit recycles our...
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...
In two days I will be married. Or as our Instagram hashtag creatively expresses it, #letsgetMAHERied. There has been so much planning in such a short period of time (six weeks). From the day we set the date of November 8th, the favor from God has been overwhelming. (And thankfully we have our parents, siblings and other extended family members who have worked tirelessly for this day; ALL FORMS of FAVOR). One of the initial obstacles was finding a church large enough to hold our guest list. Thankfully a long time friend and Pastor......
Man, heck with “likes,” I’m trying to save lives! And NO, I'm not the Messiah. I'm just a wick that Jesus has set on fire! No disrespect to anyone who has ever “liked” my pics or points, but when do we make what we “like” online the very manifestation of what we are like outside: Outside the screen, whether it be our cell phone or our computer at home. I’m tired of being reduced to a “like” on my Facebook wall. If you don’t believe it.....
Deep thoughts from a deep heart--which only comes from deep scars. I still feel the crevice of pain every time I re-hash my story to the audiences that God has ordained for me to address. I know that I do not deserve the voice, far from it. But the students and youth deserve the message. And the community deserves this type of response, and all of this is in spite of me. I strongly desire.....
I’m angry! Yes, I really am! And guess what? It’s acceptable when your anger is a derivative of what angers God. And this was one of the many lessons Pastor Matt Stokes poured forth today to the community at Coastal Christian Ocean City (CCOC). It was a much-needed message that beats near, dear, and clear to the heart of God; especially as it is manifested in the life of Jesus. When do we......
