You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Light doesn’t argue with darkness, it simply shines into it. And darkness has no defense against even the smallest flame. In the same way, you don’t have to out-shout the culture or win every argument, you just have to out-shine it with Christ in you. "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden" (Matthew 5:14).
When we see God in everything, He brings perspective and purpose to everything we see. Perhaps the circumstances you are in may not change, but to see God is to surrender to His unchanging sovereignty and that most certainly changes you.
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)
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...
In honor of the Christmas season and the fact that my brother John’s upcoming 10th anniversary to heaven (December 15th ) is upon us, I thought it was fitting to post a Christmas column that my mom wrote a year after his death. The year Jesus Himself showed up at Christmas. May it bless all of those who are grieving a loss during this season. You can hear more about grief and the holidays in this week’s radio podcast ‘HIS BIRTH is GREATER than DEATH.’ You can tune in by clicking on the "Matt & Mom Live!" tab at my website, www.themattmaherstory.com. WHEN JESUS CAME CALLING By Andrea Maher I love Christmas. I never tire of the beauty of this season.....
Imagine the thrill of just seeing your child graduate from high school— all the excitement of a bright future filling your heart. It is one of those pinnacle days for any parent. And then imagine, just hours later, at midnight, getting a knock at your front door and opening it to see a group of somber police officers asking, “Are you Dr. Verea?” And then the news that would implode the world of Dr. Jorge and Lourdes Verea. Their precious daughter Rebeka was dead....
Nothing long today, but strong in every way. Not so wide either, but deep. It’s the difference between seed and sod. It’s the contrast between root growing and surface showing. It’s the polarized results of the “here I am” perspective and the “there you are” objective.One way leads to life, while the other way leads to strife. Seed goes deep and pushes up....
I’m not actually sure where this month has gone, wow! Thanksgiving 2009 seems like it was just yesterday. It was my last Thanksgiving as a free man for at least the next 5 years. And I can recall wishing that the time would slow down, as January 7, 2010, my sentencing day, was quickly approaching. If we fast-forward to now, Thanksgiving 2011, you would think I....
