You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
God’s providence is not simply when circumstances work out the way we hoped. He is just as sovereign in the valley as He is on the mountaintop, in the unanswered prayer as He is in the answered one. Faith doesn't require us to understand every circumstance; it trusts the God who stands over every circumstance. “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28).
You can pout your way through your day or you can praise & pray your way through your day, but you can't do both. To rejoice is a choice! "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you" (I Thessalonians 5:16-18).
Faith that is kept private is a faith that is kept quiet. Conversely, faith that grows diligently in private will be faith that shows vibrantly in public. "The apostles said to the Lord, 'Increase our faith!'” (Luke 17:5)
Where we set our mind will determine what we do with our time. "Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth" (Col. 3:2).
The world is not going to come to Church to find Jesus. And that's why the Church needs to go to the world with Jesus. You see, salt is only effective when it engages with that which it intends to influence. “You are the salt of the earth." --Jesus
Following God's will may not be the easiest, but it is always the best for us. God's will is for His glory and our good; And "our good" doesn't mean we will be happy, healthy, or wealthy, but rather we would be holy. Again, God's will for us...
Those who speak frequently to God are those who speak freely about God. Thus, let us increase our time spent with God so that we can readily unleash our tongue for God. "Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and...
I haven’t stopped thinking about a question that came in during the final minutes of Wednesday night’s question-and-answer service. I recognize that many people have sincere and important questions surrounding this subject, so I wanted to reply with a more organized answer. Someone asked, “Why doesn’t Landmark Church have a deliverance ministry?”
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.
I’ve had so many people tell me they are “glad my life has worked out the way it has.” Thanks! I am too. However, if I am going to be honest with you, I have to be the first to say how things haven't "worked out for me" randomly. But it is God who has worked things out for me purposefully. Nothing I am doing today has happened overnight, the same way a 100-meter sprinter....
