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...
So many opportunities and so many pulls. So many to choose from, yet only one way to go. So which way from here? Well, there are so many opinions and so many assumptions, and I even agree with the many deductions. Yet agreeing is not always so freeing. Meaning, you can agree with what others suggest as the way you should go, but that doesn’t set you free from.....
It all points to Jesus. Every failure and success. Every high and low. It was all written for Him and through Him. The rise and the fall of man, for redemption and salvation were always a part of God's foundational plan--"The Lamb slain from the foundation of the world" (Revelation 13:8). You see, God knew we would require a Savior to be the antidote to our evil behavior. So He sent His Son to be the beginning and the end with no end. The Alpha and the Omega which means He is before, during, and after all things as the Author, Editor, and the Publisher of all things. Even evil? Yes, there is evil in the Bible and God wrote it knowing good always needs a rival. And without evil, there is....
Dear Heavenly Father, "So far today I have done very well. I have not lied, cheated or complained. I have not looked down upon my neighbors nor have I gossiped about others. So far, so good, Heavenly Father, but I know I am going to need Your help for the rest of my day. I am asking You now for that guidance because I’m about to.....
No. It’s not Throwback Thursday-- but I found another blog that I wrote a few years ago from prison that was never used and I thought it was worth the read. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Man, in his physical state, was not created to be locked up. A human should only spend 9 months at the most in captivity, but even then, we are spiritually dead when we are born into this world—due to sin. If we are automatically born into bondage, shouldn’t we then be used to confinement? Not really, because pride.....
