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).
It is better to fail over and over again at being faithful than to succeed over and over again at things that are faithless. "The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again" (Psalm 24:16).
Unity without the Gospel is actually worthless. People may be drawn together for a common purpose, but there is no such thing as true unity without Jesus. You see, any cause that does not elevate the God of eternity is only fulfilling the divisive plan of the enemy. "How good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity" (Psalm 133:1).
Faith and works are bound up in the same bundle. He that obeys God trusts God; and he that trusts God obeys God. He that is without faith is without works; and he that is without works is without faith. (Charles Spurgeon)
God plays chess not checkers. And He's not playing against the devil like many suppose. He's actually playing alone, countering and cornering every step we take and even every mis-step we make. His sole objective is to get us to see His Checkmate--Christ on the Cross--when He willingly gave us His King. You can accept Him or reject Him? The next move is yours!
Only God can open doors to enter hearts; and only God can open hearts to enter doors. In other words, God will provide a way where there is no way so that closed hearts can be reached and revived. And He will also inspire dead hearts to life so that new territory can be gained for the Kingdom . "Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert" (Isaiah 43:19)
Faith in Jesus will get you to rise up when everyone else is sitting down. "Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong" (I Corinthians 16:13).
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...
With yet another senseless tragedy, I know it is easy to become fatigued by sympathy. I mean, you cannot turn on the news these days without bad news dominating our eyes and ultimately creating anger, angst, or apathy within our hearts. Yet for the individual who calls them-self a "Christian," we must remember how Jesus said "in this world...
Being out of prison for this long, you'd probably think that I wouldn't still be in contact with so many jail-birds. No, not my former peers! I’m referring to my new friends at the seashore--seagulls. You see, seagulls were a common sight in the big yard and by watching them, I found some interesting parallels...
It is quite easy to be discontent with the place where God has placed you. Actually, it is because we lose sight of God's grace that we fight the place where God has chosen to plant us. But when we recognize that we are right where we need to be--which means we are surrendered to God's will--we become trees of righteousness, planted by the Lord for His glory through...
[Admin Note: This is a journal entry from Matthew's time in prison, recorded on October 16th, 2010] I failed terribly today, and I have to admit, it was well worth it. I tend to suffer most in the recovery following these moments of failure, but trust that the more I suffer, the more I will eventually have to offer others. Please allow me to explain: I allowed a trivial incident to steal my peace today and I learned a valuable lesson in the process: I can only be
