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).
No man was ever kept out of God’s kingdom for his confessed badness; many are for their supposed goodness (Trapp). "If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us" (I John 1:10).
True confession is agreeing with God's Word and His Word says "for all have sinned and fall short of His glory." Therefore, to confess we are sinners is to also express the need for a Savior. And that is why true confession does not take...
The Christian who is careless with Bible reading will care less about godly living. You see, there is no way to live godly in this world without spending time with God in His Word. "How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your word. With my whole heart I have sought You; Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!" (Psalm 119:9-10).
Jesus is not a “get out of hell” ticket to heaven. Jesus is the only One who can get “the hell” out of you. Therefore, O Lord, "wash [us] thoroughly from [our] iniquity and cleanse [us] from [our] sin" (Psalm 51:2).
Christ not only came to cover sin, but He also came to conquer sin. You see, when Christ went to the cross, He paid our sin debt in full. He completely covered the penalty of sin. But because we are still wrapped in sinful flesh, we still wrestle...
To live like Christ is not a matter of “trying” but of “dying. You see, most of the problems we face can be solved by dying to self. And tension will cease to exist in the soul when we are able to remove "self" as the motivator in...
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...
Nobody can curse what God has blessed.I will testify that having a “Merry Christmas” has nothing to do with presents and everything to do with His presence. And guess what? From the beginning of time, God allows His promises to be born in strange places. “In a manger” (Luke 2:7). My Savior was born outside the world’s acceptance. “No room for them in the inn” (Luke 2:7). Having a "Merry Christmas" isn't about being liked by the crowd.......
Every time I look at my Bible I’m reminded of two things: prison and peace. How is that possible? First, it wasn’t that prison was my peace, but I was imprisoned by peace while in prison. And the peace of God that guarded me was greater than any guard or wall that confined me. And second, one day I was out of my area and a guy in my housing unit decided to surprise me with a gift. This gentleman had noticed how worn and torn my Bible cover was and found it fitting to make a new unique cover for it. The material?
Recently I was doing a teaching at my church on the topic of “worry.” Naturally I was telling parts of my own story—particularly what was going through my mind after finding out that I was responsible for an at-fault drunk driving accident where an innocent man was killed. I was using my experiences to highlight the power of God in our lives–especially when all seems so hopeless. My parents were in church that day. After church was over, my mom was turning in a ‘response card’ to one of the ushers.....
My speaking schedule the past several weeks has been quite busy. We’ve been back and forth from one end of the state to the other doing multiple engagements, with each stop having its own climatic flavor, while some have inadvertently provided their own type of humor. I still laugh in my head when I think of this one incident. I’m telling about my meeting with my lawyer and how much time I was looking to do in prison, (up to 10 years), and say how I wasn’t worried about it. Not because I was in denial, but because....
