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).
When God forgives, God restores. He doesn't just separate us from our sin, but He also completes our lives in His Son. You see, the believer not only receives forgiveness, but they also receive God's righteousness.
To have impact for Jesus, you have to have intimacy with Jesus. For it is only when we have daily interaction with Him that our lives will begin to have a Christ-like impression on others. Again, you have to know Him to share Him.
Attending church on Sunday may be about lifting Jesus up. But being the church every other day should be about living Jesus out. You see, the world needs to witness the love of Jesus from the pulpit of our lives in order for them to want Jesus to come into their own lives. In other words, if you talk it, be the first to walk it so the world can see it.
What the Lord requires of us is to do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with Him. To do justly is to live by integrity regardless of the consequences. To love mercy is to see others the way Jesus views them. And to walk humbly is to be poised by gentleness and powered by God's faithfulness. These are the Christian's requirements, not out of responsibility, but purely out of response to Calvary.
We pursue what we value. As does God. And since He pursued us by going to the cross and still pursues us with His grace, then what does that say about our value?
O Lord, Your forgiveness has set me free. Your amazing grace has made my heart a bended knee. And I thank you for Your relentless love that pursues me, for it changes me and altogether soothes me. You are a gracious God and a merciful Master, in Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
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...
Saturday's blog, (1/21/17), concluded: “Here I sit. Visualizing where my treasure needs to be and if my heart had feet, it would certainly follow. But my heart is chained to regret. Regretting is regressing. Backwards you think, backwards you go. Buried. Solid ground is right above you. If you can only push through the loose sand that holds you. Quickly, if you can. But panicking turns it...
Admin. Note: Penned from prison, this writing has been broken up into two parts. Part 2 will be posted Monday. Taking it all for granted. Devaluing value leads to losing invaluables. I was once king of depreciation and I recognize this now only in hindsight. After it’s already gone. All of it. Lost. And you realize it only when it’s too late, where it is impossible to be replaced. Reputation, sunk like a ship. Losing priceless people in your life by neglecting your side of...
As Christians, we need to refuse to allow the world to speak louder than us. And when our words won’t do it, our walk will. Our peers may not always believe what we say about faith, but it’s our responsibility to inspire them to believe by how we act in our faith. Example always trumps the verbal. You see, it’s easy to...
If you're a person of faith, you've probably experienced faulty accusations and sometimes even outright persecution. And unfortunately there will be times when your presence diminishes somebody else’s significance, and then you've inadvertently created an enemy without even knowing it. Your intention is not to intimidate....
