You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
When we chase the wind, we end up empty. When we chase the Word, we end up full. The world offers noise; Christ offers nourishment. “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4).
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.
The greatest power on earth is the power of the Holy Spirit. And the effectiveness of such power is only as great as your surrender to the Lord. Thus, when we yield to Him, this spiritual power becomes real to us. Because His power in you is greater than any power this world will ever offer you.
The fruitful life often needs rain just as much as sunshine. Thus, when we are connected to Jesus--the Vine--even the storms of life become useful in the process of becoming fruitful. Accept the rain then, knowing the sun is right on the other side of the clouds.
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...
Jesus was fully Man to die to the grave; And fully God to rise and to save. The above sounds nice and all, but what am I doing with the knowledge that God saves? I can talk poetically about the Word, which was sent to be “read,” or I can live out the Word inside of me so that I might be read wherever I’m sent. The purpose and power of life is discovered in the.....
I can look out my window, no bars. No mountain of prison towers and fences obstructing my outlook. However, I still compare my current outlook to a mountain climber going over a mountain. The climber’s feet are still planted on the obstacle even though he is at the top and looking down. Don’t misunderstand me - - I say "over it", but I am still touching it! Over the guilt and shame, but still touching it by remorse and remembrance. Over the distressing pain, but still touching it by progressive passion. And even when the mountain......
And the snow keeps on falling, like the pain does from my mind to my heart. I think about this particular month six years ago and those memories in mind trickle down to the chambers of my heart. It’s a slow fall, similar to snow fall, but its landing isn’t as soft. You see, the prison of pain that pushes with passion hits me harder than “the story” that I tell about the pain. I go around and share my story to audiences of all ages and backgrounds, and while my words attempt to explain it, they will never do the justice of.....
I have to admit, I get frustrated when someone doesn't do something the way I would. And initially, I actually think that my emotional fatigue is justified. I actually believe I have a warrant to be impatient with somebody else's performance…or lack thereof. You'd think that after ALL I have been through that I would be the most patient and understanding person around – especially with others. And the truth is.....
