You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
The devil’s accusations stop where the blood of Jesus starts; and hell’s fury can’t outrun Heaven’s victory. Stay covered by the blood, anchored in the Word, and fearless in your testimony. "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death" (Revelation 12:11).
God will often lead us into the wilderness to wean us from the world and get us to lean more into His Word. Because it is usually in desert circumstances that we discover the abundance of Jesus.
Your reliance upon God must begin fresh and anew each day, because yesterday's faith isn't enough to carry you through today's challenges.
A day that you live for God is a day that you live with no regrets. So hold nothing back while living for Him, because He held nothing back when He died for you.
Worry is like a weed. And when you allow the weed of worry to get into your soul, it will choke out your peace and strangle your joy. So how do you deal with it? You can begin to uproot worry with worship. You see, worship is declaring that God is worthy, which fills up the soul with wonder and leaves no room for worry.
If we say we walk with Jesus, yet do not walk like Jesus, we are actually without Jesus. Therefore, let us test the light of our walk by lining up the shadow of our actions with the life of Jesus.
DO NOT LOSE HEART Christian, this earth is NOT your home. Perhaps God has allowed struggle into your life to DETACH you from this world and MOVE you into His Word. Because the truth is, the Word of God IS ETERNAL and it's where your heart BELONGS. It's where the cares of this world dissolve.
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...
There are so many times in this post-prison journey where I am in utter awe of God and how He works out His perfectly designed plan for our lives—often in spite of us. So for more than a year now, I find myself in numerous settings thinking ‘Only God!’ Today is another one of those days, as I am writing this from the beautiful town of Lancaster, Pennsylvania (and writing hastily I might add)! You see, we are between sessions of a conference called Catalyst: Practical Leadership Up close. And our executive leadership staff is here. And once again I have one of those moments as.....
Here I sit on my comfortable couch with a 55-inch flat screen tv in front of me and my state of the art MacBook on top of me. I just controlled the lighting to my liking and before I go any further—please excuse me—I’m going to grab a quick drink and snack from the fridge…Okay, I’m back now, still comfortable, but at a loss for words to type. And I’m humbly reminded how this is the complete opposite of how I used to write while in prison. Yet I never had an ounce of trouble writing a full page of deep thoughts graciously surrounded by peace in the midst of so much chaos and so little comfort. Back then, I typed on an antiquated....
“If you have any negative questions, comments, or concerns, please forward them to my Complaint Department. His name is Little John.” ✝ I say that jokingly in assemblies sometimes, and it certainly gets the audience laughing; because at this point in the presentation, they have already heard me share a story about Little John and I, which involves some prison drama and a tense showdown with some gang members. Of course I couple the story with his picture to drive the oxymoron home about Little John--not being so little......
Our performance doesn’t enhance or reduce God’s faithfulness. And with that opening sentence, it is my utmost privilege to report that God is still in the salvaging business despite our idea behind our own personal usefulness. Sarah and I recently participated in a youth event in Pennsylvania where I was the keynote speaker of the night. I’ve done this particular “presentation” before, which requires PowerPoint slides and embedded video; for it is the most structured way to tell my story without getting caught up in certain areas and timelines. Time is always ticking....
